This study investigates the basics and principles of death anxiety, mindfulness, spiritual well-being, and resilience of the elderly. The research method is descriptive and analytical, using library resources. According to studies, oldness is a period of death anxiety from a psychological point of view. Most of the elderly relatively have different psychological dimensions, including cognitive, emotional, and behavioral. During this period, the elderly have various psychological problems, including depression, anxiety, feeling alone, and moodiness, which can result from their situation and people's behavior. According to Johnson (1994), they can be reduced by having spirituality and advanced personal philosophy. Several factors and characteristics related to the death phenomenon can be the basis for accepting this reality or cause anxiety and rejection of said reality. Spiritual well-being is one of those variables that lead to a better understanding of this phenomenon. Research indicates that people with religious beliefs and customs experience higher levels of well-being.
