“We wouldn’t be a community without our amazing members who trust in each other for emotional support”

As mentioned in our mission statement written by our founder @GlenM:

“7 Cups of Tea is for anyone who wants to live in a world where the human experience is free from stigma and stereotypes and rich with love and support. A world where all 7 billion of us can grow and feel like we truly belong.

We believe that each one of us is inherently valuable. We do not measure people based on where they are from, what they look like, or what position they hold. We recognize that people make sense in the larger story of their lives. We understand that people are complicated and that life is not simple or easy.

We are all on the same path. Some of us are just starting out. Others are further down the road. No matter where we are, being kind, compassionate, and accepting of one another enables us all to grow.

We do not tolerate people being mean, harmful, or rejecting of others. We do not judge or look down on people.

Although there are forces that tend to disempower and create division, we stand together as we compassionately care for and champion one another. We see our differences as a strength. We are united in our shared goal of creating a place where all can find acceptance and be welcomed to a home where we all belong.” (Full mission statement can be found HERE)

Member Appreciation Week is a special week-long event dedicated to our members here on 7Cups. This will be a collaboration event between subcommunity and group support leaders. The event is scheduled for May 24th-29th, 2021.

Members make our community complete and we are 7Cups are proud to kick off Member Appreciation Week to honor those who spread, support, love, compassion and emotional support. 7Cups “is for anyone who wants to live in a world where the human experience is free from stigma and support. A world where all 7 billion of us grow and feel like we truly belong”.

We will be bringing in different activities for you to get engaged in. These activities will be hosted in the group support rooms and forums and will be aligned with the following themes:

The Richness of Love and Support: Love is something we experience. Being loved and the feeling that comes with it does not have one definition or one encounter. To feel love and support is something that everyone should have access to. We need to thrive, not just survive. With a good support system in place, we can flourish and reach our potential in whatever area we are striving.

Freedom from Stigma and Support: To be free from stigmas around our illnesses and struggles and to be supported as we go through them.

The True Measure of Value: This theme focuses on individual and personal measures of value, not the value or lack thereof placed on us by others or society. Everyone is valuable in their own right and is worthy and deserving of support.

We Are All on The Same Path: Inspired by Wayne Dyer's quote, "We are all on the same path. We're just in different places along that path," this theme represents the path we're all on together as we push through this pandemic that has been affecting the world for over a year now. While its effect on everyone is personal and unique to each individual facing these unprecedented times, we're all unified by the fact we're living through these circumstances and both needing and providing support for each other as we continue to push through them.

Compassion and Acceptance: This theme represents how we are all deserving of compassion, not only from others, but from ourselves. Part of being able to show compassion to ourselves is to be able to accept ourselves for who and how we are, not to feel stuck or trapped in the now, but to be able to fully acknowledge where we are in life in order to be able to work on moving forward.
