    El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la relación entre las actividades de autocuidado (mindfulness y ejercicio físico) y el uso de recursos personales y laborales y su relación con el bienestar. La muestra está formada por 294 trabajadores contratados de 20 organizaciones de diferentes sectores socioeconómicos en España. Los resultados muestran que el mindfulness se relaciona positivamente con el bienestar a través del papel mediador de los recursos laborales y personales. Sin embargo, mientras que los últimos muestran un papel mediador completo en el modelo hipotético, los primeros no muestran una relación significativa con el mindfulness. Finalmente, los resultados presentan una relación positiva y significativa entre la interacción mindfulness-ejercicio físico y todas las variables dependiente; igualmente la interacción entre ejercicio físico y mindfulness tiene un efecto significativo en cada una de estas tres variables dependientes.

    The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between self-care activities (mindfulness and physical exercise) and the use of personal and work resources and their relationship with well-being. The sample consisted of 294 workers recruited from 20 organizations from different socioeconomic sectors in Spain. Results showed that mindfulness is positively related to well-being through the mediating role of work resources and personal resources. However, whereas personal resources showed a full mediating role in the hypothesized model, work resources did not show a significant relationship with mindfulness. Finally, results showed positive and significant relationships between the mindfulness x physical exercise interaction and all the dependent variables, and also the interaction between physical exercise and mindfulness had a significant effect on each of these three dependent variables.
