🔴 This week's coffee session was very special! Our coffee program clearly values human connections, bringing guests together in an atmosphere of familiarity and love. The effect of singing with Ahmed Saad had a great impact on people, adding an atmosphere of happiness and comfort. The participation of specialists was also an important support, as it added depth to the activities and interest in the mental health of prisoners. I feel that these moments reflect the beauty of faces and the nobility of feelings, which creates a distinct belonging to the house. I hope that these activities will continue and bring joy to everyone's hearts.
⭕ The “Our Coffee” session is one of the special events held at the Home for the Elderly, as it brings together guests and their friends, forming a world full of serenity and beauty. Every Tuesday, the session begins to open up new horizons of sincere human feelings for everyone. The beauty of these moments is evident in the friendly interaction, where participants exchange experiences and ideas that strengthen the bonds between them. This event is considered a real umbrella of psychological comfort, where art and spirit meet in a single space. The impact of these programs goes beyond simple entertainment, as they stimulate self-expression and restore people's sense of belonging.
⭕ Our coffee session aims to provide a safe space for participating parents, as it improves their mental health and reduces feelings of loneliness. This involves open dialogue and active participation in various activities. The program enhances the spirit of cooperation and interaction between guests and administrators, thereby increasing their sense of respect and appreciation. Each session is an opportunity to explore their feelings and thoughts in depth, which demonstrates the positive impact of this meeting.
⭕ The psychological and social support provided strengthens the resilience of participants and restores hope in life.
The importance of the presence of real family, who are true friends of the home who interact with its problems and sufferings, in these sessions is evident in the emotional support they provide to their loved ones in the nursing home. This interaction helps build effective communication bridges, as families and a sense of belonging become part of the psychological healing process. Clients feel how much families care about them, which reflects positively on their morale. The effectiveness noted by participants reflects the psychological impact of strong family ties.
⭕Through these moments, the relationship develops between inmates and friends who express the inmate's feelings for his family, which facilitates the adaptation process and improves the quality of life of those in need.
⭕ Artist Ahmed Saad is considered one of the effective figures to enrich our coffee experience, as he presents influential art that touches hearts. Her voice and the beauty of her performance help create a state of artistic immersion that helps guests express their feelings safely. Through his participation, Saad provides spiritual support which has a positive impact on the participants. His artistic message stems from his belief in the role of art as a means of psychological treatment and meditation. His melodies are a form of therapy that nourishes the soul and brings inmates out of their isolation, bringing the soul back to itself.
Psychotherapy plays a vital role in these sessions, as a psychologist such as Professor Omaima Qawwar helps participants practice self-reflection. This is linked to increased self-awareness, which helps improve their psychological state. Drawing attention to the therapeutic value of emotions is an essential step toward promoting positive feeling. Psychotherapy also helps combat feelings of hopelessness and improve individuals' ability to adapt to challenges. Thus, our coffee session becomes a privileged place to draw attention to mental health problems and find appropriate solutions.
⭕ Participants share their personal experiences, which helps others discover themselves more deeply. This practice reinforces the feeling of belonging and gives participants the feeling that they are not alone in their journey. The exchange of ideas and experiences enriches the field of discussion and contributes to broadening the horizons of reflection. This encourages inmates to reveal their undiscovered talents and skills. These moments push everyone present to think positively about the future and reevaluate their priorities.
⭕ Our colleague Tamader contributed greatly to supporting and immediately responding to the participants with his determination and insistence on his initiatives, his continuous communication, his love for parents and their support for them with great love and sincerity of intention.
Sister Heba plays a vital and important role. She is a doctor and a healer through treatment and medicine, but she is a balm with her spirit, her anointing, her kindness and the spaces of humanity within her.
⭕ Our coffee sessions are based on deep human values, reflecting the importance of serenity and positive feeling within society. These values enhance social relationships and reflect the human spirit capable of giving and loving. The Dar Al-Musini community is becoming a model for strengthening human ties and mutual support. These sessions represent an opportunity to rebuild self-confidence and increase hope through the right connections. At the end of each session, feelings of gratitude and love emerge in everyone, making this program a unique experience that serves the noble purpose for which it was created.
