In this article the well-being is a sum of partial subjective satisfactions: satisfaction with life, satisfaction with sexual life, and mental health. Social activity and physical activity are playing important role in well-being in elderly. The aim of this article is to understand how those spheres of human activity are shaping subjective well-being in women after 50 and to reveal the mediating role of self-esteem. The study revealed self-esteem as an important predictor of well-being in elderly women, as well as a predictor of social activity. Those results are discussed in sociometric theory. The social activity is shaping the well-being through the self-esteem as a mediator. The physical activity is a direct predictor of social activity and mental health. The satisfaction with sexual life allows to predict the satisfaction with life, whereas mental health doesn’t. This effect can be explain by relatively good mental health that becomes ‘invisible good’.
