Updated Version: Member Compassion Course
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 February 12th
...See more Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well. This post is about - the 7 Cups Compassion Course [https://www.7cups.com/forum/welcome/Resourcesat7CupstoHelpYou_1275/ReIntroducingMemberCompassionCourse_252883/] which we reintroduced in 2021.  The goal of this course is to understand and know the basics of practicing compassion and help & support our members to have a compassionate experience in the community. This course allows you to foster healthy conversations and connections as well as be a compassionate, loving, supportive, and amazing member of the group support chats [https://www.7cups.com/connect/groupChatrooms.php] and the community. Based on the feedback we received, we made some changes and improvements to make the course a bit more comprehensive as well as covering different topics like compassion, self-compassion, universal compassion, benefits, and challenges, etc to foster a better understanding and practice of compassion in our daily lives.  Who can participate? Any member can take this quiz. Even if you are an experienced member, give it an attempt. Because we are all learning and practicing compassion. How can a member participate? * Once you have completed the course, please let us know in the comments of this post. * Also, tag any 3 members you know to invite them to take the quiz as well. If you do not know anyone, that is okay. * Your responses to the course will be auto-graded and if you successfully pass it, you will receive a “Compassion Hero” badge. * If you didn’t pass, that’s okay. Feedback will be shared and then you can retake the course. Why should you give it an attempt? Because it presents an opportunity to take a moment to self-reflect and assess self-awareness. Here is some feedback that we received on why one took this course.  * I appreciate the opportunity to take a moment and reflect on self-awareness. It’s a good exercise to be intentional and concise. Life is a daily practice, and practicing compassion never hurts. * I was nicely surprised to take this course because sadly some people need to be refreshed on how to treat others, and it's a great feeling knowing that 7cups take that extra precaution to protect all of us on our journeys. Thank you! * How engaging and thought-provoking the questions were. * I liked that the course made me stop to think about compassion and how I can be more compassionate. * I learned a few ways that I could be more compassionate. I'm not the best at reaching out.  * The course helped me understand more about compassion and gave me questions that got me to think. >> Take the Compassion Course and share your score in the comments. Let's celebrate our commitment to kindness together. 💖 [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScMEXP6lopKu4ZJAtmctmwk0vq9Fp7T892gWJteqmQoIJa_Dg/viewform]<< (Text is hyperlinked, click it to start the quiz)

He could have won.

...See more The chess player I support most could have defeated his opponent, but he made big mistakes after spending too much time thinking about moves, when the game was going to end, so the situation abruptly turned over and the advantage went from him to his opponent. Then he had to decide on every move very quickly while his opponent still had sufficient time so he had no chance to retrieve the advantage. After losing the game, he leaned back at a loss, watching a staff taking away the desk plates with his and his opponent's names on them.  He rose his head to face the ceiling and pulled his collar to his face, after a while, he leaned forward with his elbows on the desk, shaking his head and twiddling with his small gadget he carried with himself, and he put his head in his hands, scratching his hair, and then he turned his face to the side and shook his head. Finally, he looked at the chess plate, pointed to where his improper moves were, and shook his head again.

Breaking the Silence: Reaching Out for Help with Social Anxiety 😱😱😱
by DivineKarmainfinity
Last post
 6 hours ago
...See more Social anxiety can make even simple interactions feel overwhelming, leaving you feeling isolated and unheard. You may fear judgment, avoid social situations, or struggle to express yourself. But you are not alone, and help is available. Talking to a trusted friend, family member, or therapist can make a difference. Taking small steps, like joining supportive communities or practicing self-compassion, can ease the burden. Remember, asking for help is not a weakness... it’s a step toward healing. People care about you and want to support you. You deserve to feel safe and confident in social settings. Start by sharing your feelings with someone you trust. Your journey to overcoming social anxiety begins with one conversation.
