Objectives: This study aims to develop a decent sallimyok program and provide basic data which are helpful in improving psychological wellbeing for adults who are exposed to stress and fatigue.
Methods: Middle-aged women living in Cheongju, Chungbuk were divided into experimental and control groups (10 people each) through convenience sampling, and a questionnaire survey on psychological wellbeing was distributed to them and collected. For data analysis, IBM/SPSS 20.0 was used. In terms of statistical analysis, a reliability test (Cronbach’s α) was conducted. To test research questions 1 and 2, independent t-test and paired sample t-test were carried out.
Results: First, a sallimyok program features meditation (floor-sitting, slow walk), forest therapy, stretching exercise, wrapping-up and sharing feelings. Second, it was confirmed that a sallimyok program has a positive effect on the improvement of psychological wellbeing and the depression for women.
Conclusions: The sallimyok program improved participants’ psychological wellbeing, which means that it could reduce their anxiety and stress.
