#CheckInWithMe: Give and get support here.

Happy Monday, Mighties! 💌

If you could describe your health using just one word, what would it be? Your word can reflect a symptom, a pattern you’re noticing, a realization, a treatment that’s working (or one you’re trying), or a challenge you’re navigating.

It’s a new self-care challenge, Mighties, and this week we’re tapping into what you all do best: helping others!

Whether you’re a caregiver, volunteer, cheerleader for an online friend, or a helping hand to a family member, there are many ways we can assist the people around us. Helping others can be extremely rewarding not only for those involved, but our actions and intentional time can make an impact on society too. We are most powerful when we work together, right?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks loves to share her mental health story as well as be creative with those around her.

How do you like to help?

Having a dedicated place you can go to reflect and sort through your thoughts can be super helpful, especially in those moments when you’re learning something new (exciting!) or gaining a different perspective or insight (scary!).

Where do you go when you need time to yourself to pause, regroup, and think?

Happy May, Mighties! 💐

It’s already May—let’s check in on our goals. What’s your main mental health goal this month? What do you want to make sure you’re actively working on or moving toward?

I’ll go first! For me, it’s being more mindful of my stress levels. They really impacted my health in April, so I need to make stress management my #1 priority moving forward.

How about you?
