*IF I AM NOT ONLINE, SEND ME A MESSAGE AND I WILL GET BACK TO YOU WITHIN AN HOUR*

Hi, my name is Hannah Jane and I am so glad you found me on 7 Cups of Tea!
I'm a trained and verified active listener and I like to support people struggling. In my free time when I am not listening, I enjoy cooking, yoga, and mainly volunteering. I really think helping others is in my DNA, and I would love to help you in any way! I've overcome a lot in life and would like to help by listening to you. If I'm online, then please feel free to start a chat. If I'm offline, then send me a message and we can set up a time to connect. I am so glad you are here!

Here are some of my favorite quotes!

“The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.”
― Barack Obama

"No one can do everything but everyone can do something!" -Unknown


I was raised to volunteer: nursing homes, clinics, church nurseries, school, everywhere that could use help. It's such an intrinsic part of me, to use my life to help improve the quality of others.
-Debby Ryan

Volunteers don't get paid, not because they're worthless, but because they're priceless. ~Sherry Anderson

Anxiety Support / by HannahJane

...See more When I was younger, I never cared what anyone thought of me. I was the most care-free four year old and the way everyone should be, honestly. But eventually when I became aware that people were making fun of me just for being myself, I began to care what everyone thought of me. What my family, friends, teachers, neighbors, and everyone thought of me really made care. I had social phobia. Luckily, this only lasted a few months until I figured out I shouldn’t care what anybody else thinks about me.I am a big advocate on this because it’s not just the fear of judgement, judgement leads to bullying and so many other horrible things. My goal is to open people’s eyes to understand they were put here for a reason and they are perfect the way they are.   “Social phobia- (n)- Social phobia, also called Social Anxiety Disorder, is an anxiety disorder characterized by overwhelming anxiety and excessive self-consciousness in everyday social situations.The duration is at least 6 months to the fear, anxiety, or avoidance is persistent, typically lasting 6 or more months.  The rest of the diagnostic definition remains the same.”   People with social anxiety disorder usually experience significant emotional distress in the following situations: •        Being introduced to other people •        Being teased or criticized •        Being the center of attention •        Being watched while doing something •        Meeting people in authority ("important people") •        Most social encounters, especially with strangers •        Going around the room (or table) in a circle and having to say something This list is certainly not a complete list of symptoms -- other feelings may be associated with social anxiety as well. “It’s taken me years to realize I can break that all down. I can choose not to assume that people are judging me, thinking they’re better than me. I can assume people see the best in me—as I’m able to see in them when I stop obsessing about myself. Does this mean no one will ever feel superior or judge? Not at all—though it’s possible that when they do, they’ll be standing behind their own heap of insecurities, wanting to feel more assured but knowing no other way to do it.” These are some thoughts that someone with social phobia/anxiety might think about: "It’s just easier to avoid social situations." "I would freeze up every time I had to meet someone in authority...." "I’m the only one in the world who has these terrible symptoms...." BREAKING THE CYCLE: “Every time you judge someone else you perpetuate the cycle of judgement. Consider the example above. If you judge someone’s clothing, you’re going to expect others to be judging your clothing as well.” Break the cycle by simply treating people how you want ot be treated, if you don’t want to be judged, don't judge someone else. Discussion Questions? 1.) Is there a difference between Moral Judgement and Character Judgement, if so, in your own words what is it? 2.) What are you tired of being judged for? 3.) Can you replace judgement with curiosity, if so how?
