The present study was undertaken to examine the relationship between mindfulness, happiness and well-being among adults. Data were obtained from a sample of 200 adults aged between 41 to 63 years (M= 50.32, SD=6.85) by applying Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ) and Friedman Well-being Scale (FWBC). The Data were analysed applying Pearson Product Moment Correlation Method and Simple Regression Analysis. The results reveal that mindfulness and happiness are positively and significantly correlated with well-being and can be predicted on the basis of mindfulness and happiness.
