Join Our "Caught You Kind" Recognition Campaign!
...See more Our caring community is at work each day supporting and uplifting each other through various acts of compassion. Listeners, leaders, and members alike - it could be anyone contributing positively, demonstrating our values, and making a difference through little acts. Have you witnessed someone taking time to help talk someone down in a room, or noticed someone answering questions in the forums? Someone may have sent you a personalized message when you needed it.  These moments of going above and beyond should be captured when they’re seen. In honor of World Kindness Day (November 13) and the entire month of Cupsgiving, I’d like to challenge you all to note them and share them here! Tag the person, “catching them” in the act of kindness, and with every tag let’s pay it forward, one good deed at a time. This campaign will run through the end of the year so let's make this thread a beautiful thriving representation of our community's giving spirit! - Other initiatives you can take part in right now! 💗 Peer Appreciation Program [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScsCXyPYjQ4dsfLMh2ZzXC4of1lEutJsSasbkzc6JLDq7b8ow/viewform] - write a message that will be turned into a special note and posted in our big beautiful official thread [https://www.7cups.com/forum/gratitude/AppreciationProgram_2310/PeerAppreciationProgram_262230/]!! 💗 Our 2024 Cupsgiving events masterpost (HERE) [https://www.7cups.com/forum/projectsandevents/General_2421/NovemberisCupsgivingMonthMasterPost_339577/]

Gratitude Circle Activity
...See more Greetings everyone! We invite you to take part in the Gratitude Circle, a mindful activity designed to foster appreciation and strengthen connections within our community. This is a simple yet meaningful way to acknowledge and celebrate the positive impact others have made in our lives. By sharing gratitude and appreciation, we create a supportive and uplifting environment for all. We encourage everyone to participate and spread kindness by taking a moment to express what you’re thankful for. Let’s come together and make this space one of positivity and connection! 1. Take a few moments to quiet your mind and reflect on the people in this community who have made a positive impact on you. It could be through their kind words, helpful Suggestions, or thoughtful actions. 2.  In this thread, post a short message of gratitude. Tag the person you're appreciating and explain what you’re thankful for. It could be something they’ve done recently or something they've always done that made a difference. 3. When you share your appreciation, make sure to tag a different person each time you post. This ensures that everyone has the chance to feel valued. 4.  After posting, take a moment to breathe deeply and send positive thoughts or intentions to the person you just thanked. ------------------------- Current taglist as of November 17,  2024 To add or remove yourself from the taglist please click  [https://www.7cups.com/forum/mindfulness/Announcements_2413/MindfulnessAutomatedTaglist_320002/?post=3438021]here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/mindfulness/Announcements_2413/MindfulnessAutomatedTaglist_320002/?post=3438021] @4551SP @adventurousBranch3786 @Admirablerainbow2825 @adventurousCat7477 @Agent22 @alexandralee @AllAboutThePeace11 @amiablePeace77@asherb281 @avistaco @cal1860 @CaringSub @CatHanderOutNoah @Clio9876 @communicativeJet616 @dapperBeach8823 @daydreammemories @DragonspanAnge @EchoOrAsh @etherealize @Falcon05 @fearlessMaple308 @FloraBelle @ForestZen @frankPark1546 @GentleHealingInitiative @Goldenfox2009 @greenScarf6235 @hardworkingBeechwood6063 @healingsoul4892 @iloveyouxx @imprettysleepy @indigoBeechwood597 @infiniteforever12 @InsightfulPhoenix @Invisibility101 @JarofSeeds627 @jaywalkk @Kickan75 @kindRiver6 @kivesh @Linux2022 @Littlejoy11 @livinggadget @MindfulJourney22 @mytwistedsoul @nessapressure05 @NurseJose @NotAllHere713 @onwardforevenmore @pamharley003 @PeacefulBeach3454 @peacefulDovex @PopPunkPrincess17 @Rainboho @rebeccastgo @sincereGrapefruit83  @sky2Ocean20 @Snowy00 @spongbobishappy @sunshineBeauty5741 @Swordpsalm @tallZebra8032 @Tinywhisper11 @toughApricot223 @warmMemory6263 @willingBranch634 @VKlistening @yellowPineapple3652 @yzzil @Zeraphim

Hospital Stories for @Tinywhisper11
...See more @Tinywhisper11 is in the hospital (please don’t remove this post; Tiny gave me express permission in another chat to tell people she’s in the hospital, and she’s looking forward to this post!), and she’s bored out of her mind. Can everyone rally together to entertain her, please? Make up a short story, tell her about something funny that happened in your childhood, discuss something that’s happened recently in the world, send her a story like from Aesop’s fables, send her an update on your life… It doesn’t matter what it is, just give her something interesting or funny or whatever to read while she’s bored in the hospital. Also, please note that she may not respond, at least for awhile, because she’s still in the healing process. But know that she’s reading all of it and enjoying it, and she loves and is grateful for all of you! <3 Thank you <3

Climate change and mental health and well-being
...See more How do you feel when temperatures are very high, far higher than what you are used to, and you still need to do your daily routine? Many people feel stressed and anxious when it is too hot outside. Too much heat triggers anxiety and increases cortisol, the stress hormone and can also make people more depressed or irritable.  Extreme heat days are an inevitable consequence of a warming world, and things are not cooling down. The IPPC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change *) revealed that rapidly increasing climate change poses a rising threat to mental health and psychosocial well-being; from emotional distress such as anxiety, depression, grief, and other more serious problems. But it is not only about heat, it’s also about the increase of events caused by global warming like storms that have been of a stronger magnitude than usual. Furthermore, extreme heat also makes air quality worse by raising the risk of fires which produce smoke and by droughts that increase airborne dust particles.  Here are a few points to prepare yourself for extreme weather events: * Stay informed through local news and weather reports for warnings about extreme weather events; plan your day accordingly. * Check alerts about travel conditions before heading out in extreme weather events. * Check your home how it retains or loses heat and make alterations where possible (example black out curtains to reduce heat from the sun) * Have an adequate supply of nonperishable food in your pantry like canned goods * Have a week or more of water in storage containers * Eat healthy food to reduce your risk of chronic diseases * Create a coping tool box (collection of skills, techniques, items, and other suggestions that you can turn to when you start to feel anxious or distressed) * Have a Go Bag [https://www.pelican.com/us/en/discover/pelican-flyer/post/go-bag-checklist--what-to-pack-in-your-go-bag/] with things you may need if you have to evacuate suddenly Dealing with natural challenges requires good planning ahead, patience, acceptance, self-reflection, and mindfulness exercise [https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=2a0991cd964d94b04082c3d8651e23d43f9bab68beb6d0c8260bcadbdcd2b729JmltdHM9MTczMTgwMTYwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=058685c7-5112-6098-3809-9742507e619b&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cud2lraWhvdy5oZWFsdGgvRGVhbC13aXRoLUNoYWxsZW5nZXMtTWluZGZ1bGx5&ntb=1]s. Participation question: How has climate change affected your mental health? What helps you to overcome the challenges in climate change and those life throws at you in general? Helpful Videos: How Climate Change Impacts Your Mental Health | APA [https://youtu.be/xhN4afWdX4Q?si=aBYZK-XOx1i80A1t] Helpful Resources: The Hidden Mental Health Crisis: Psychological And Mental Health Impacts Of The Changing Climate [https://www.forbes.com/sites/billfrist/2024/11/06/the-hidden-mental-health-crisis-psychological-and-mental-health-impacts-of-the-changing-climate/] Why mental health is a priority for action on climate change [https://www.who.int/news/item/03-06-2022-why-mental-health-is-a-priority-for-action-on-climate-change] (*) Seeking Help  Mental stress can cause us not to be able to see the good things in life and lead to excessive rumination or worries which can result in serious health problems. If you have serious, long-term problems with negative thinking and feeling depressed, see your doctor or talk to a therapist if they are related to any mental challenges.  Are you looking for a therapist? 7 Cups has online, certified therapists with a paid option.
