In recent years, psychological well-being has become a primary concern in adult mental health discourse, particularly due to the rising incidence of stress, anxiety, and emotional disturbances. Meditation has emerged as a widely accepted complementary practice, with Rajyoga meditation standing out for its spiritual and cognitive benefits. Unlike conventional meditation, Rajyoga involves open-eyed introspection, positive affirmations, and a connection with the Supreme Soul. This review examines the empirical evidence and theoretical perspectives surrounding the practice of Rajyoga meditation and its impact on the psychological well-being of adults. Findings from various studies suggest positive outcomes including enhanced emotional regulation, resilience, self-awareness, and life satisfaction. The paper also identifies gaps in existing literature and discusses the implications of integrating Rajyoga meditation into mainstream mental health strategies.
