Psychological well-being is quite similar to other terms that refer to positive mental states, such as happiness or satisfaction, and in many ways it is not necessary, or helpful to worry about fine distinctions between such terms. Psychological well being is depends on our perception and Yognidra offer a means to reduce the physiological and psychological reactions to stress. Yognidra is a state of inner awareness combined with complete muscular, mental and emotional relaxation. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of Yognidra on well-being of alcoholic spouses. A pre-post research design has been used in the present study. For this purpose 30 spouses were selected through purposive sampling from Ankur Rehab Centre, Indore (MP). All participants were educated and house wives. Half an hour session of Yognidra was given to the participant in evening times for 30 days. Scores were obtained twice on well being first time in the beginning and then after one month by Psychological well being scale. Scale was developed by Sisodiya and Chaudhary. The scale was highly reliable and valid. Results indicated that hypothesis is not rejected at the confidence level of 0.05, i.e., Yognidra is not impact positively on well-being of the spouses of Alcoholic. The current findings suggest that no’s of exposures of Yognidra improves well-being of the participants, which effects positively on life satisfaction and quality of life of the participants, directly.
