 December 10th
...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/]

...See more 🍀 Do you have strong or weak self-efficacy? 🍀 Do you often doubt your abilities when facing a challenge, or do you usually feel like you can rise above it and overcome it? Self-efficacy refers to an individual's belief in his or her capacity to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments (Bandura, 1977, 1986, 1997). It is believed to influence one's self-esteem. One of the 4 factors that influence self-efficacy is verbal persuasion. And we can get it from ourselves!

Project Lightship is the revival of Social Soldiers team which was created with the intent on eliminating the stigma that comes along with mental illness on social media, guiding those who are depressed/having a hard time/need someone to talk to right here to 7Cups. As the previous project leaders stated: Our goal is to combat mental health stigma by going out and finding those who need us the most and bringing them to our safe haven. In accomplishing this goal, we will simultaneously combat stigma head on and take a stance that it is not only okay to get support when you need it, its a healthy and wonderful thing to do for yourself! We are currently starting the lightship team with twitter and have one track you can contribute in: Reaching out to 20 people letting them know about the 7cups through the twitter account & making 5 mental health-related posts raising awareness about it You are welcome to contribute more, those are the minimum requirements to fulfil every month. Who can join the Lightship Team? Both listeners and members who meet the requirements can join the team. (Yes, teens can join the team too, yay!) What are the requirements to join the team? For the listener, 1+ month as a listener Verified Listener Listener Oath For the member, 1+ month as a member Member Oath Both listeners and members will be required to sign the guidelines form(Linked to application) agreeing to follow the guidelines of the team and 7cups.

Please send your login credentials to the lightship email thelightshipteam@gmail.com prior to beginning your month. Lightship Team's social media accounts should not be used for personal use.
