7 minutes ago

...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

How resetting our minds works for us

Mindfulness Center / by pamharley003

21 minutes ago

...See more Check In for : November 21st to November 24th 2024 When we reset our minds does not mean we are erasing hardship it means we are navigating gracefully. In the fast paced world we are living in sometimes we feel overloaded and tired. By accepting what we are going through we can reduce any stress and begin to embrace a peaceful way. Resilience is how we recover from things and are able to move on. We reshape and reframe our minds and fix a situation back to being normal. Every so often things have us feel like we are in a tornado. Things begin to get unclear and we have to take a moment to regroup How can we restart our mind here is a following ways: Accept the chaos - Recognize what is happening and embrace it because we can overcome this. Embrace flexibility - embrace what may be going on, feel the emotions we are in and practice cognitive flexibility. This when we recognize what is happening and prepare ourselves to change it. Honor Rhythms - Find a way to support our mental and physical well being. Find a meaning - sometimes spiritually getting in our mind can help us cope. By practicing meditation along with mindfulness can help us become better. How do you deal with setbacks? How do you cope with pressure? ✅ To add yourself to this taglist, press the Post to Thread button below and write the exact words Please add me. ❌ To remove yourself from this taglist, press the Post to Thread button below and write the exact words Please remove me. @4551SP @adventurousBranch3786 @Admirablerainbow2825 @Agent22 @alexandralee @AllAboutThePeace11 @amiablePeace77@asherb281 @avistaco @CaringSub @CatHanderOutNoah @communicativeJet616 @dapperBeach8823 @daydreammemories @DragonspanAnge @EchoOrAsh @etherealize @Falcon05 @fearlessMaple308 @FloraBelle @ForestZen @frankPark1546 @GentleHealingInitiative @Goldenfox2009 @greenScarf6235 @hardworkingBeechwood6063 @healingsoul4892 @iloveyouxx @indigoBeechwood597 @infiniteforever12 @InsightfulPhoenix @Invisibility101 @JarofSeeds627 @jaywalkk @Kickan75 @kindRiver6 @kivesh @Littlejoy11 @livinggadget @mytwistedsoul @nessapressure05 @NurseJose @NotAllHere713 @onwardforevenmore @pamharley003 @PeacefulBeach3454 @peacefulDovex @PopPunkPrincess17 @Rainboho @rebeccastgo @sincereGrapefruit83 @sky2Ocean20 @Snowy00 @spongbobishappy @sunshineBeauty5741 @Swordpsalm @tallZebra8032 @Tinywhisper11 @toughApricot223 @warmMemory6263 @VKlistening @yellowPineapple3652 @yzzil @Zeraphim

Climate change and mental health and well-being

7 Cups Online Therapy / by amiablePeace77

1 hour ago

...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.
