SCA: The Power of Self-Care
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 2 days ago
...See more Hello Community, 7Cups is a community where you can find everyone advocating for self-care. Last week, we discussed the power of self-care in the Positivity Corner group chat and all participants shared their insights, encouragement, and support to promote the practice of self-care. This month we are celebrating the awareness of self-care [https://www.7cups.com/forum/projectsandevents/General_2421/SeptemberisSelfCareAwarenessMonthEventsHelpWanted_336603/] and gratitude. [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/GroupSupportCommunityEvents_2295/2024GratitudeWeekw7Cups_336990/]  But, something that often comes up is that self-care is often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. It is a significant aspect of overall well-being. Many think and there is a misconception that it is about selfishness or indulgence. But, that is untrue. It is more about recognizing the importance of taking care of oneself to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life.  We live in times that often emphasize productivity, goals, and success. But, we also need to understand that taking care of ourselves and each other is the way to live a well-lived life. So as you start your day to begin your journey of productivity and meeting goals, and other needs, do take a moment to do two steps of reflection and ask yourself a question: “What can I do to take care of myself today?” Once you answered the first question, the second question to reflect on, “What can you do to take care of others around you?”  Responding to these questions can help you unlock the awareness of yourself and how self-care is beneficial for you.   So, what does self-care mean to you? How do you practice it Let's discuss and feel free to share your thoughts and experiences on self-care.

I'm back again with another celebration post and I'm ready to party! 🥳🎉🎊 I hope you all are as well, because I can't do this without you! So far this month, 7 very special people have filled out the birthday form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeoAfZ-nB2E3T0rGEACbriaLMvaHENVvzjJVTQFxeMi6RmriA/viewform] letting us know their birthday is in this month and that's worth celebrating!

I've spent time setting up all the birthday decorations in hopes this celebration is memorable for all of our very special birthday people!  As always, cake a must! There's plenty to go around, so please help yourself to a slice (or two 😉) and enjoy! 🎂  If cake isn't your thing, don't fret! I've baked cookies too!

...See more When you find strength in your solitude, you become a figure worthy of the greatest stories. History tells that the pages of novels are filled with lonely souls far more often than those who ended their journey with someone by their side. What's your opinion?

Learning to Dance in the Rain 💕♥️
by KaylaBella
Last post

...See more Your mindset is the foundation of your reality. Life will always throw challenges your way, but it’s how you choose to respond that defines your journey. Each setback is an opportunity to grow, every failure is a lesson, and every challenge is a chance to rise stronger. Keep reminding yourself: you are capable, resilient, and worthy of all the good things life has to offer. When doubt creeps in, replace it with hope. When negativity knocks, answer with gratitude. The most powerful change you can make starts within your own thoughts. Choose positivity, even when it feels hard—because a positive mind doesn’t ignore the storms, it learns how to dance in the rain. Every single day is a fresh start. Show up for yourself, believe in the possibilities ahead, and never stop chasing the light. You’ve got this! Much love, Kayla 💕♥️

Chasing the Light of the Sun Within ☀️💫
by KaylaBella
Last post
 January 29th
...See more Sometimes life feels like a whirlwind—a constant race from one thing to the next. But every now and then, it’s so important to stop and simply be. To let the world slow down for just a moment and realize how far you’ve come, how much you’ve grown, and how beautiful it is to simply exist. Life isn’t about perfection or getting everything right—it’s about embracing the journey, with all its twists and turns. It’s about the lessons we learn, the people we meet, and the moments that take our breath away. It’s about the strength we didn’t know we had and the love we never thought we deserved. Even on the hardest days, there’s something extraordinary about being alive. The way the sun rises each morning without fail, the way a small act of kindness can ripple through someone’s day, or the way a simple smile can remind us that we’re all connected. So today, let’s celebrate the little things. The warmth of a favorite sweater. The way music can lift your soul. The sound of laughter. The quiet moments that feel like magic when you look back on them. No matter where you are in life right now, remember that this moment is a part of your story—a story that’s uniquely yours and full of possibility. Be gentle with yourself, embrace the beauty in the ordinary, and never forget: you are enough just as you are. 💛✨ Much love, Kayla 💕💫

Life is a Beautiful Gift
by KaylaBella
Last post
 January 28th
...See more Life is a beautiful gift, even in its most challenging moments. When you take a step back and focus on the good—no matter how small—it has the power to shift your entire perspective. Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and positivity reminds us that brighter days are always ahead. Every sunrise is a chance to start fresh. Every challenge is an opportunity to grow. And every small act of kindness, to yourself or others, is a ripple of goodness that spreads further than you can see. Be gentle with yourself. Celebrate your progress, no matter how slow it feels. And remember, there is so much to be grateful for—your breath, the laughter of a loved one, or even the quiet moments that remind you of your strength. You are resilient, capable, and worthy of all the joy life has to offer. Keep your heart open, focus on what fills it, and trust that the best is yet to come. Much love, Kayla 💕♥️

When the World is Sick Can't No One Be Well, But I Dreamt That We Were All Beautiful and Strong
by Espejo
Last post
 January 12th
...See more I came across these words during a mental health conference that had a presentation titled "When the World is Sick Can't No One Be Well, But I Dreamt That We Were All Beautiful and Strong" which is taken from lyrics written by Silver Mt. Zion  I find the quote to be inspiring, creative, but also sad at the same time. I'm still processing it and am curious about what others perspectives are on it as hearing other's viewpoints helps me to analyze, feel, and incorporate it. I feel like these words have a powerful message and would like to better understand it so any thoughts are appreciated. What is your take on it? ✨
