In this context, it has been an exciting question whether the concept of spiritual well-being, which has an impact in the understanding of individuals’ lives and behaviors they develop, has a role in the judgment of individual values, has an impact on post-trauma growth. Under the study, the level of post-traumatic growth and spiritual well-being of individuals who experienced a traumatic event was identified, and the effects of individual spiritual well-being on post-traumatic growth were studied. The research has found that the level of spiritual well-being has an effect on the post-traumatic growth of individuals. It has been concluded that the conditions of respect for nature, living in harmony and believing in the existence of a power of love have a positive impact on the levels of post-traumatic development they experience. Another study found that individuals with health problems showed more progress in expressing their feelings compared to individuals exposed to other traumatic events, demonstrating positive attitudes in their interpersonal relationships and understanding the value of life. Finally, it is revealed in the context of the study that individuals have most of the changes and developments in the system of beliefs after the trauma they experience.
