Brief Summary: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group will be conducted to determine the effect of a mindfulness-based stress reduction program on spiritual well-being and the meaning of life among the elderly.
Detailed Description: Aging is a natural part of the life process, during which individuals undergo numerous biological, psychological, and social changes. In this period, people often engage in reflecting on past life experiences, seeking meaning in life, and searching for a spiritual direction. At the same time, physical limitations brought about by aging, social isolation, and losses can increase stress levels in older individuals. Stress can have adverse effects on their health, including anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and overall health deterioration.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) helps individuals develop skills to accept the present moment, cope with stress, and regulate emotions. Spiritual well-being plays a significant role in enhancing the quality of life for older adults. The MBSR program enables older individuals to consciously focus their attention on the present moment, allowing them to live more mindfully in the "here and now" instead of dwelling on past anxieties or future worries.

This study examines the effects of the MBSR program on spiritual well-being and meaning-making in older adults, highlighting the importance of spiritual support and mindfulness practices in later life. The research aims to contribute to spiritual support programs for older individuals. A hypothesis will be tested to determine whether there is a difference between the intervention and control groups after the program's implementation.
