The research design was correlational. Pearson correlation and path analysis were used to analyze the data. In this study, all the ethical considerations have been observed and no conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Results: The results showed that there was a positive and meaningful relationship between secure attachment to God and resilience, mindfulness and compassion but a negative relationship between avoidant attachment and resilience, mindfulness and compassion. Also, the results showed that attachment to adults had a positive and significant correlation with resiliency, but there was no significant relationship between anxiety attachment to adults and mindfulness and resilience. Also, based on the results, resilience and secure attachment to God could positively predict mindfulness.Conclusion: Those with secure attachment to God value themselves and know that God loves and helps them and responds to their desires and prayers.
