Prior to implementation of the CMPP, the procedure was pilot-tested using 12 persons, who had mild to moderate depression and met the study’s selection criteria. The women were asked to provide feedback regarding the program’s two phases (three procedural steps). Given their feedback, no major changes were made in the procedure.
Phase 1: Mindfulness Practice
During the first week of the program, mindfulness practice was conducted, in a group setting in the respective community hall, from Monday through Friday, from 9 am to 3 pm, with a 15 minute break each morning and afternoon. Prior to each mindfulness practice session, the researcher explained the goal of mindfulness practice was to increase the participants’ perception of their body movements and thoughts through the practice of “mindful walking” and “mindful observation of the rising and falling of their abdomen.” These techniques allowed subjects to increase their ability to become aware of their thoughts and body movements.
