The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to understand the relationship among mindfulness, self-kindness, alexithymia and quality of life in post-treatment breast cancer survivors and to examine whether self-kindness and alexithymia mediate the relationship between mindfulness and quality of life. Results suggested that the overall model accounted for significant variance in quality of life and that alexithymia partially mediated the relationship between mindfulness and quality of life. Implications for practice and further research are discussed.
