Compared to peers in the general population, persons aging with serious mental illnesses (SMIs) face physical health disparities, increased isolation, and decreased subjective experiences of quality of life and wellbeing. To date, limited intervention research focuses on addressing specific needs of persons aging with SMIs and no interventions targeted for that population are informed by the theory and science of positive psychology. With the aim of co-producing a positive-psychology-based program to enhance wellbeing for older adults with SMIs, the author held a series of focus groups and individual interviews with six certified older adult peer specialists. Analysis of the data developed in-depth insights into helpful processes, values, and priorities of individuals aging with SMIs, as well as the creation of a wellbeing-enhancing course curriculum.

Humans have a unique intelligence known as spiritual intelligence that tends to seek meaning and purpose in their lives, ask questions about one's existence, and render resolute conclusions to one's actions. Today, school teachings align with the industry's demands and are nurturing students' cognitive attributes. As the demand for technological innovations increases, the demand for focusing on vocational skill-focused education is also increasing. However, in the era of rapid technological innovations, nurturing the men's psyche behind the technology-driven progress is equally important. The chapter discusses the relevance of spiritual intelligence in schools. Further, the chapter explores spiritual intelligence's relationship with psychological wellbeing, mental health, quality of life (QOL), happiness, and academic performance. The way forward measures to enhance students' spiritual intelligence are also discussed for achieving students' holistic development.

The results showed that: 1) the concept of the tahfidz program, starting from planning routine deposit activities, sima'an al-Qur'an, and tahsin Al-Qur'an activities, 2) The tahfidz program is carried out three times a day by dividing the students into four groups , then when gathered in the santri assembly simultaneously put the santri's right hand above their head by reading surah al A'la verses 1-19 followed by reading a fragment of the burdah prayer with a pat on the forehead and ending with the recitation of their respective prayers and wishes. 3) the emotional and spiritual intelligence of the students tends to increase. Students are able to learn and master these skills if they have the motivation and effort to understand personal emotional experiences, motivate themselves, understand the emotions of others, and develop relationships with others. Likewise with spiritual intelligence, a person is able to get closer to the Creator by increasing spiritual abilities, the ability to face pain and fear, has a quality of life, and lives a devoted and responsible life.
