This study aims to examine the effects of creative approaches aimed at reducing anxiety and increasing happiness by addressing the future concerns and subjective well-being levels of university students. Although the negative effects of anxiety on students' academic and personal lives have been widely examined in the literature, studies on the effectiveness of artistic interventions such as mandala painting and music therapy in reducing anxiety are limited. In this context, the study aims to fill an important gap in the field by evaluating the combined effects of these two methods. In particular, it aims to provide evidence-based methods that will improve the mental and emotional states of university students with practical results, thus making a positive contribution to both individual health and educational processes. Main Hypotheses of the Study: * H1: There is a difference between the levels of future anxiety and subjective well-being between nursing students who painted mandalas and those who did not. * H1-0: There is no difference between the levels of future anxiety and subjective well-being between nursing students who painted mandalas and those who did not. * H2: There is a difference between the levels of future anxiety and subjective well-being between nursing students who participated in the music activity and those who did not. * H2-0: There is no difference between the levels of future anxiety and subjective well-being between nursing students who participated in the music activity and those who did not. Research Questions: * Is mandala painting and music activity effective in reducing nursing students' future anxiety levels? * Is mandala painting and music activity effective in increasing nursing students' subjective well-being levels? * Which of the mandala painting and music activity applications is more effective on nursing students' future anxiety and subjective well-being?
