How do seasonal changes impact your sleep patterns?

Shifts in seasons can affect us in many ways, including our sleep and overall health. Changes in temperature, sunlight, humidity, and weather patterns—depending on where we live—can lead to flares in symptoms, allergies, and disruptions in routine.

I find it harder to sleep during the summer and tend to experience more symptoms of seasonal depression. Spring and autumn, however, are better for me when it comes to maintaining a more consistent sleep schedule.

How do the seasons influence your sleep?

I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

TRUE or FALSE: I tend to compare myself to others.

Hi Mighties! 🌼

Growing up as a highly sensitive and observant child, I noticed that I often compared myself to those around me—usually without even realizing it. That habit played a big role in the perfectionism I still grapple with today. Whether it was how I performed in school, how much emotion I showed, or how I navigated friendships and relationships, my choices were often shaped by what I thought was acceptable—especially to the adults I spent the most time with.

Now, as an adult in the age of the internet—and even though I'm learning to trust myself more, make my own decisions, and do what feels right for me—I still find that comparing myself to my peers remains a big obstacle I’d like to overcome. I know I’m my own person and that everyone’s life path is different, but it’s still challenging nonetheless.

Can anyone else relate? What’s your experience?

What are some feelings that come up for you after receiving a compliment?

PSA: There is no "right" way to react to a compliment. Depending on what we’ve been through, we won’t all feel, react, or respond to praise in the same ways; and it’s totally valid to have positive, negative, or neutral feelings and reactions around them!

What feelings come up for you when someone tosses a compliment your way?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says she sometimes gets confused or doesn’t know how to react or feel, but other times compliments make her feel confident and great.

All Through His Name by Melanie R.

All Through His Name by Melanie R.

I stand before My Lord to thank Him.

For who He is,
for all that He has done.

He took on all the world's burdens,

Sacrificed,
victory was won!

He gave up His life to save me,
when I couldn't save myself!

When I suffered, it wasn't forsaken.

A knowing where I belong.

I’m singing hallelujah for My Lord-
all day long…
Hallelujah!
Ooh…
Through all of the surgeries.
The pain of rare disease,
disability,
the enduring suffering-

He gave me strength!
lifts me up!,
renewed my spirit!

His name that will reign!!

I came alive through the name of Christ.

Jesus saved me.

It’s all through His name.

There is healing in The Name!
Mighty healing & Be blessed by The Name above all!

More blessed messages/songs of healing on my YouTube:Melanie’s Melody or DM me and I can share the song to this poem or any others that have hit your spirit.

Thank you!🙏🏻🤺💪🏻👑
