All,
I am looking forward to this week’s Stronger Together on Thursday, October 24 at 7 PM ET.
Here is a video that is an interview between the Chief Clinical Officer of a Company called NOCD, which provides online content and access to therapists that specialize in treatments for OCD. The entire video is 47 minutes, but, for the purpose of our discussion,
please watch the first 11 minutes prior to our meeting and then
together we can watch the chapter on “manifestation” (time stamps 16:42 – 20:10). Of course, feel free to watch all of it if you have the time. It is very informative.

Hi all,
Warm-up question: What are your favorite fall foods and rituals? Your favorite pumpkin patches, fall festivals, and produce stands? (asking for a friend )

Hello friends,
This Thursday’s topic is Learning to Forgive Ourselves: We make mistakes and in hindsight know they are wrong.
Join others to watch this short video about forgiving ourselves followed by an open discussion on how we might forgive ourselves for these mistakes.
Warm-up question: What has someone done for you lately that you really appreciated? Or what have you enjoyed doing for someone else?

See you soon! Hello everyone.
At tonight’s meeting, we will start with an icebreaker when we will discuss:
“If you were famous for something, what two companies would you want to sponsor you?”
The article that we will discuss for tonight’s stronger together conversation is one written by the Surgeon General; he wants to be able to add a warning label to social media sites that have not demonstrated that they are safe.
Some questions that might come up in the conversation are around:
- “how might social media or the internet be affecting our mental health–either positively or negatively?”
- “Would a surgeon general’s warning help us make choices that are better for our mental health?” If not, what could help us avoid things that are not good for us?
- Similarly, “are there things we can do to help those we love avoid things that are not helpful for their mental health and do things that support mental health?”

Hello Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I think you will all agree that the topic Brian found for our conversation this week: “Is Watching the new News Bad for Your Mental Health” is very timely. We are inundated with 24-hour news circle so the question is how much news are we consuming and how is it affecting our mental health? The article below discusses how consuming too much news can impact our mental health and then offers some tips on how to manage our news intake.
There is no video this week and so I don’t have to worry about screen sharing, Yay! As you read the article below, take note of the many tips provided and come prepared to share your personal experiences. Let’s learn from each other and stay Stronger Together.
For our warmup question, please come prepared to talk about “The Best Book you have ever read.”
I look forward to seeing most, if not all of you on Thursday.
Sampson
