Community Playlist: The 7 Cups Mixtape
Music has an incredible power as a therapeutic tool. It can boost our mood, help us relax, or provide an outlet for emotions we can't put into words. In times of stress or uncertainty, music can be a comforting companion, a source of motivation, or simply a way to escape for a while.
This led us to think on ways we can celebrate music as an entire community and we came up with the idea for a spotify playlist. We collected your song suggestions in this post and have been adding them over the past few weeks.
Here it is!
We are always accepting new requests! If you'd like to recommend an uplifting song, you can PM or tag @Mahad2804 who is overseeing this initiative. We look forward to hearing what you think of it, and may it be a source of joy and healing.

If you notice a song on the playlist that's not appropriate (e.g. contains profanity, triggering subject matter), please let me or Mahad know.

Music is one of the way I get positive emotions, grief and relax. I remember one particular moment in life my relative was really sick, I went trough really tough time to call ambulance or manage myself to calm the person down. Without mental hospital. It was so hurtful seeing this all, experiencing that my hands were shaking and I need but I couldn’t sleep. I just turn on music peaceful and calm and slept like baby.
music is resource we have for free, it’s powerful and magical.
Can’t imagine my life without ok.
