Abstract
Emotional health refers to how a person thinks and feels. The ability to acknowledge and cope with both positive and negative emotions is a sign of good emotional health. Emotional well-being, or emotional health or wellness, refers to how well people are able to accept and manage their emotions and cope with challenges throughout life. Emotional health can affect how well someone can function day-to-day or how they are able to deal with change or uncertainty. The novel ‘The Magus’ can be seen as an exploration of how individuals grapple with their emotions, perceptions and sense of reality. Nicholas’s experiences challenge his beliefs and perceptions, leading him to confront his inner conflicts and emotional turmoil. The novel raises questions about identity, trust, and the nature of human relationships – all these aspects are essential for the emotional well-being of every individual.
Keywords
