Every change begins with a simple decision—a quiet intention to be different, to do better, to grow. At first, it takes effort. You have to remind yourself, push yourself, and stay committed. But with consistency, that effort turns into habit, then into a practice, and eventually, it becomes part of your identity. Whether you’re working on self-love, discipline, patience, or a healthier lifestyle, trust the process. Small steps lead to lasting transformation.
What’s one small habit you’re working on right now? Let’s encourage each other in the journey of becoming our best selves.

So often, we get caught up in fighting our thoughts. We try pushing away negativity, overanalyzing emotions, or forcing ourselves to “think positive.” But true peace comes not from controlling the mind, but from observing it without judgment. Instead of resisting anxious or intrusive thoughts, try simply noticing them as if they were passing clouds in the sky. Acknowledge their presence, but remember that you are not your thoughts; you are the observer behind them. Practicing this mindset through mindfulness or meditation can help you develop a sense of inner calm and clarity, allowing thoughts to come and go without overwhelming you.
How do you practice observing your thoughts without judgment? Share your experience below and let’s support each other on this journey of awareness.

There is More talk about Self-Care than the Most Critical Key to Happiness and Great Relationships of all types——-“SELF-LOVE”.
With this in-depth look at what Self-Love looks like-for your own personal growth, I would like you to take an honest look inwards and determine if you Practice Self-Love.
If you’re not, or if you’re not doing all of the bullet points given below, don’t worry— “Each morning, we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.”
As always, let’s have a great conversation about this topic below 👇 in the comments where you can use this space for your own place in your mental wellness journey. Not your mental illness journey— I am here as a friend to guide you through to the other side as much as possible—yes, that is where I stand, and the magic only happens if you let me—so how about more group members join in for your sake.
The Mighty friends that have opened themselves up to this opportunity are telling me and showing me that they are really starting to get it, and they are taking bigger, new, determined steps in their lives.
"Self-Love" refers to a deeper internal state of accepting and valuing yourself unconditionally, while "self-care" focuses on taking practical actions to maintain your physical and mental wellbeing, like getting enough sleep, eating healthy, and engaging in activities you enjoy; essentially, self-love is the mindset that drives you to practice self-care. Self-Love is the mindset too that heals the pain and keeps you in the light, Determined to keep pushing away any darkness and to stop doubting yourself.
Key points to remember:
* Self-love:
* A feeling of intrinsic worth and acceptance, regardless of circumstances
* Becoming your own best friend - treating yourself with the same respect and understanding you would give a close friend.
* Be the love you never received.
* Includes embracing your flaws
* Foundation for setting healthy boundaries and prioritizing your needs
* learn to say no when needed and clearly explain why
* Don’t seek Anyone’s validation
* Positive self-talk: Use encouraging language to speak to yourself, focusing on your strengths and accomplishments.
* Pay attention to your thoughts and feelings, recognizing negative self-talk and actively replacing it with positive affirmations/relabel upsetting thoughts
* Say something nice to yourself in the mirror — looking into your eyes & smile at yourself & say “I love you”and your name. (Yes, I actually stop myself to do this & it’s Wonderful)
* cultivate self-compassion
* Encourage Yourself
* Talk to someone you trust who *Has The Capacity To Listen*-and, Another Big Key Here is that ***Being vulnerable - completely honest and thorough- about what you’re going through with someone else is a major form of self-love because you’re taking the time to dig deep, regardless of how uncomfortable it is, And, on top of that, you’re showing yourself that you want to work out whatever’s going on with you***
* avoid comparing yourself to others
* practice gratitude
* Seek out opportunities for growth
* Creating a safe zone all your own is an act of self-love because it gives you a designated area where you can focus on your needs and emotions instead of other people’s. The key here is creating a space that feels good and peaceful when life is neither of those things.

In the rush of daily life, it’s easy to focus on what’s missing or what’s next, but taking a moment to pause and appreciate what you already have can bring a deep sense of peace and fulfillment. So, if you're feeling down, find a quiet space, take a deep breath, and reflect on three things you’re grateful for today. Let that feeling bring calmness and ground you in the present moment.
I'd love to know what are you grateful for today? Share in the comments and let's create a ripple effect of positivity.
Also, I make mental health video responses to many of your questions. The latest one is about a simple rule for having good mental health. The lesson is about how you can prioritize yourself and put in the work to make yourself happy about your well-being. If this sounds useful to you, check it out by clicking on the link below:

Yet another yeast infection. I got 6 of them last year. But it makes sense that I'd get one now. I'm taking furosemide and my diabetes is poorly managed cuz my body is just a big dumb waste of meat. So I'm peeing out sugar. I noticed 3 days ago there was pressure in my abdomen when I walked to the bathroom and it hurts to pee. But I was just like nahhhhhhh. But tonight I know for sure. I'm gonna take a fluconazole and have pauley put some betamethasone clotrimazole cream. Hopefully I feel better soon.

Love given freely is one of the most powerful gifts we can offer—not because we expect it in return, but because it enriches our lives and the lives of those around us. Instead of seeking validation or affection from others, focus on how you can give love—through kindness, patience, and understanding. True beauty radiates from a kind heart, and the more love you give, the more it multiplies within you. Remember, love is not about perfection; it’s about intention and connection.
How can you share love today? It could be a kind word, a thoughtful gesture, or simply listening to someone who needs support. Let’s fill the world with goodness and remind each other that love is an endless resource. What do you say?
