Compassion: The healing light.

...See more “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” – Dalai Lama In the current state of the world, with so much violence and stress - compassion is the healing medicine that we as a collective need the most. When we cultivate compassion, not only do we learn how to empathize with others, but we also learn to pour kindness and understanding on ourselves.  ✨ What is compassion?  According to a research, Compassion entails five elements that apply to the self or others:  1) recognising suffering,  2) understanding the universality of suffering in human experience,  3) feeling for the person suffering and emotionally connecting with their distress,  4) tolerating any uncomfortable feelings aroused (e.g., fear, disgust, distress, anger) so that we remain accepting and open to the person in their suffering, and  5) acting or being motivated to act to alleviate the suffering  (Link [https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5315311/#:~:text=They%20concluded%20that%20compassion%20entails,any%20uncomfortable%20feelings%20aroused%20(e.g.%2C])  ✨ How do I practice compassion?  - Every morning I set an intention to be understanding, to be accepting and to be attentive to my inner self. Compassion starts with you. When you fill your cup, you can pour on other's cups too. Here's a intention prayer that Dalai Lama used to make every morning: “Today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others, to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings, I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others, I am going to benefit others as much as I can.”  - Meet more people, make more connections with others. The more you learn about the diversity of human lives the more you'll find yourself opening up to new perspective. Meeting people will help you understand that despite all the differences in identities and opinion, at the root of it all, we are all human beings. We need food, and shelter, and love. We crave attention, and recognition, and affection, and above all, happiness. .- Another practice I’ve found helpful is loving-kindness meditation. It encourages sending thoughts of goodwill and care to myself and others, helping me build a more compassionate mindset.  🪞 Reflection:  🖋️ Tell us about a time when compassion from someone has deeply impacted you?  🖋️ Share two ways you can show compassion to someone today.

Key Inner Development Goal: Self-Awareness

...See more Growing up, we are molded by the society and other external influences into being someone who might survive well in the particular societal structure - but it makes us forget who are truly are inside. Once we start being aware, the process of finding internal gold mine within each of us gets started. Being aware of ourselves, internally and externally can help us notice our buried emotions, our motives, strengths and flaws. As we become more aware of our thoughts and action through frequent reflection, so much about how we interact with the world changes. Our ability to make more deliberate decision rather than reactive ones is increased. We make more choices in life that are aligned with our values, increasing our life satisfaction. We consciously surround ourselves with better friends, choose better environment that would help us thrive and can design and eventually live the life we are truly happy living.  ✨ How I've been able to cultive self awareness:  - I've used the help of ChatGPT and other AIchatbots with appropriate prompts to provide me insights based on my vent. I'd say it skyrocketed my self awareness.  - Being very attentive to what makes you feel bad or good or any sort of emotion when you interact with life everyday. All these emotions are the language of your body, informing you more about yourself.  - Book an appointment with a therapist or a coach or mental health support person! Or even reflect on your day and your life with a listener in 7 cups of team. Sometimes a second person perspective can help us see what we might miss.  - Meditate.  - Journal - Follow more paths available in 7 cups of tea and complete the exercises!  🪞 Reflection:  I'd love to hear about your strategies for enhancing self-awareness!  🖋️Which methods or techniques have you found to be effective? 🖋️ How has self-awareness improved the quality of your life and choices?

So supportive and honest.
Great character, lots of understanding.
She has helped me look at life in a different way.
A lovely girl. Thank you (:
Amazing! Lots of help!
She is amazing, has a 'friend' like feel (though i'd love to be her friend), and just helps me to cope about my worries. By far the best here (though I love every listener here equally) She's just so laid back and I love the way she dealt with this
She's very cool
Good listener. She's super nice and she'll push you to overcome your fears and she'll be with you along the way. She'll praise you when you accomplish something and she'll love you when you don't.
Very quick to respond.
:)
She is the best out of this place. I honestly don't know what to say about her for real unless y'all try it.☺️☺️☺️ She will make you feel so much better.💪 I highly recommend her to anyone who is going through anything in their lives she wil help you get through it 🤓
