Ultra-brief Online Mindfulness-based Intervention During COVID-19 Movement Control Order

We adapted and contextualized the original RAIN protocol to local pandemic-induced lockdown situation, with short journaling prompts that engage participants in self-reflection. Journaling is known to be a creative way to engage people in a therapeutic activity which promotes self-awareness (Utley \& Garza, 2011). Creating a visual narration of thoughts, feelings and experiences help individuals make internal experiences more tangible and manageable, especially during these uncertain times.

The control group participants were asked to report preventive measures that they have taken to prevent COVID-19, ways that they obtained Movement Control Order news, and things that they wished to do once the Movement Control Order is lifted.
