The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if mindfulness-based writing expression training works to improve stress and cognitive flexibility among military personnel. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the mindfulness-based writing expression training lower the scores of the perceived stress scale and of the cognitive flexibility inventory? * Researchers will compare the mindfulness-based writing expression training to the regular mental health education to see if the mindfulness-based writing expression training works to relieve stress and enhance cognitive flexibility among military personnel.

perceived stress
Timeframe: Baseline: The perceived stress level of military personnel is evaluated one day before the intervention. After 5 sessions intervention, the same scale is used again to assess the perceived stress of the military personnel immediately afterwards.
cognitive flexibility
Timeframe: The cognitive flexibility level of military personnel is evaluated one day before the intervention. After 5 sessions intervention, the same scale is used again to assess the cognitive flexibility of the military personnel immediately afterwards.
