Compassion Mediates Poor Sleep Quality and Mental Health Outcomes

ConclusionsWe provide empirical evidence for how both self-compassion and fears of compassion can mediate the relationship between poor sleep quality, psychological distress, and mental health wellbeing. Our results provide important suggestions for future work in therapy, clinical studies of sleep, and the utility of the fears of compassion scale as a key psychometric instrument for use within the field.
