Abstract

Countries worldwide have experienced an unprecedented event that changed the educational systems and suddenly forced our teachers to adopt online classes. This greatly affected our teacher's mental health. This study aimed to determine the harmony of the biological, psychological, social, and spiritual domains and also looked into the challenges encountered among university teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings served as bases for the intervention plan. The data were treated using frequency, rank, simple percentage, mean, standard deviation, rank, Chi-square test of independence, and ANOVA. Results showed teachers have poor health habits in the physical domain. In the area of the psychological domain, it showed that teachers experienced severe depression. Results of the spiritual domain suggest that teachers lack spiritual enrichment. In addition, the teachers in the social domain have warm relationships. The biological domain of teachers reveals a meaningful relationship with gender. Also, teachers' civil status is related to the social domain. Results also show that teachers can cope with resourcefulness, adjusting one's mindset and patience. Results show that teachers have biological conditions, severe psychological depression, warm social relationships with people around them, and less spiritual life after the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, it is recommended that an intervention plan be implemented, monitored, and evaluated to improve their living conditions while doing their job as facilitators of learning.
