📄 Abstract
The sense of uncertainty that permeates the modern human experience is becoming more and more prevalent. Together with unrelenting technical advancement and sociopolitical instability, the post-pandemic era's significant socioeconomic changes have exacerbated a general state of flux. The World Health Organization (2022) reported a startling 25% increase in the prevalence of anxiety and depression worldwide within the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic alone, demonstrating the quantifiable effects of this environment on psychological well-being. People face an unrelenting need to adapt in this environment, frequently in the absence of the conventional social and cultural institutions that once offered a sense of security (Bauman, 2000). A basic human need—the pursuit of psychological techniques and methods that might stabilise the self, give one a sense of control, and develop the ability to overcome adversity—has been heightened by this contemporary situation.
