#CheckInWithMe: Give and get support here.

We’ll be exploring the theme of 🌟dreams🌟 for this week’s self-care challenge, Mighties!

To start us off, let’s reflect about what we often daydream about. Perhaps it’s a place you want to travel to, an experience you want to have, or even something you want to accomplish or fulfill in your lifetime.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks often finds herself daydreaming about the experiences she wants to have (like making new friends!) or planning fun events with her family.

What about you?

Hi Mighties! 🌟

Let's talk about the safe spaces in our lives today. Whether it’s a physical place you visit or a mental space you retreat to for regulation, share what that safe space looks and feels like to you.

Is it a room filled with your favorite things, or an image you create in your head? Is it sitting or talking with a therapist or other mental health professional? Maybe it’s being out in nature, whether in a park or your backyard. Are you with anyone? What do you see, smell, hear, and feel?

For me, it’s when I’m alone in my bedroom with the door closed. It’s quiet, and my stuffed animals are around me. I watch my favorite show or dive into an interesting topic, I have my favorite snack and squishy fidget toy.

What about you? Describe your safe space.
