WhatsApp Groups: Women's and All-Gender
Join one of our WhatsApp groups! This is a great place to become part of the LAVA community. We have 30-Day Self-Love affirmations, challenges and journal prompts, we share our experience, strength and hope ("ESH"), we ask for a sponsor or accountability partner, we ask for outreach calls ("O/R with or without feedback"), we share our own photos and toplines, and we make friends! We announce LAVA meeting-times and call for volunteers.
We moderators want to keep the WhatsApp Groups a safe place that is warm, inviting and personal. The focus is on sharing, getting feedback, networking, and growing through the LAVA challenges. We protect the anonymity of our members and their recovery. For example, we limit linking to outside social media. Many people avoid social media as part of their recovery, and is too easy for a WAG to become overtaken by external links.
The link for the WhatsApp Group ("WAG") will be shared in each meeting, along with the Guidelines (see below).
The link to the WhatsApp Group (WAG) will be shared at meetings.
❤️ Welcome! The LAVA WhatsApp Community is a safe space for all members to share their journey using “LAVA—The Four Qualities of Self-Love” as a framework for healing and recovery to live a happy, joyous, and free life! We are unlike other WhatsApp Groups. Please review all of our guidelines so that this group remains a sacred space dedicated to all things LAVA!
❤️ Please keep the focus on sharing your Daily Self-Love Declarations, the 30-Day LAVA Challenge assignments, and how you are learning to give yourself Unconditional Love, Authentic Attention, Meaningful Validation, and Total Self-Acceptance.
❤️ Please feel free to ask for outreach calls and sponsorship at any time.
❤️ Please allow us to get to know you and your LAVA journey. We have been known to share fun pet and travel photos as we get to know and support each other in living our optimal lives. After all, fun is a basic need.
❤️ You are welcome to post miscellaneous memes, images, and social media videos as long as you take the time to personalize them and say how they relate to you and your personal LAVA journey.
🚫 This group is NOT for posting meeting announcements besides LAVA meetings unless a LAVA member is speaking on the meeting.
🚫 This group is NOT for requesting meeting information for any other meetings.
🚫 This group is NOT for seeking speakers for other meetings, but people may seek help to chair, tech host or support any LAVA meetings.
🚫 This group is NOT for promoting outside literature, therapy, coaches, treatment centers, or programs, no matter how great they are.
🚫 We do not promote this WhatsApp group outside the LAVA workshop or meetings. It is not an open group. It is exclusively for those who are committed to attending LAVA meetings and applying the LAVA framework for healing and recovery in their lives. And this begins with attending a LAVA Workshop or a LAVA Meeting.
❤️ If you need meeting info please reach out to an admin and we will add you to other groups that provide additional meeting information.
❤️ Thank you for being a part of our group and joining us as we learn how to love ourselves unconditionally, no matter what!
