Please read: It is very helpful to the listeners if you answer some of Friendly Bot's little questions, even if they're pesky. The most important to answer is which category of help you fall under. This makes it a lot easier for you to be matched quickly and correctly with the right listener for you. Thank you so much! 

Hello! I'm Malie Mist, a new member to 7Cup and a new listener, but hopefully nevertheless helpful. Malie means calm in Hawaiian, and I believe that we all should be calm like mist. It may sound silly, but by closing your eyes and imagining this when you're stressed really helps. Also, take a few minutes a day to sit and meditate. You don't need to light candles and be in a dark closet, but let it be what you need it to be. For me, I like to put on a guided meditation video since I have a hard time knowing where to begin, preferably ones with music, and putting surround sound headphones on so it's even more relaxing. I also like to sit in a comfortable, quiet spot that's somewhat secluded like the couch, a comfy chair, or even your bed. Anyways, about me... I like to write, dance, and listen to music... I'm a normal teen, but I face problems and I like to especially help those with family stress. If I can't help you or think you'd benefit getting it from someone else, I'll do my best to refer you to another great listener.  Please feel free to message me whenever you need... even if I'm not on, don't stress! Just send me a message and I will send you a message back ASAP. I really want to help you!
