This spring, I want to make room for ____________.

When we think of spring, we often associate it with new beginnings, growth, and renewal. Today's #MightyMinute is all about embracing the spirit of the season to reflect on what we can weed out and make space for.

Whether it's exploring new treatment options, building community, speaking up, securing our boundaries, carving out time for activities we enjoy, shifting our perspectives, or pursuing our curiosities—spring can be an opportunity for change.

🌸 What do you want to make more room for this spring? 🌸

Write a one-word peek into the week. 👀🕵️‍♂️

Welcome to a new week, Mighties! 😇

Imagine looking at the days ahead from a bird’s-eye view. If you had to capture this week in just one word, what would it be? What kind of energy or vibes do you expect it to bring?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks chose the word "busy." She has a lot planned and is looking forward to it—but she also knows she’ll be exhausted by Friday.

How about you? What’s your word for the week?

If you had an extra free day each week, how would you spend it?

Mighties, imagine having an additional day every week to do whatever you wanted. What would you do? Would you sleep in and catch up on much-needed rest? Tackle a project you've been putting off? Maybe you'd spend it doing something fun—or perhaps you'd do nothing at all.

How would you make the most of those extra 24 hours? 🕰️

What’s your go-to distraction on high-symptom days?

Hi, Mighties! 🌷

What have you all been up to? What hobbies or distractions help you during a health flare or when you're running low on spoons?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks has found that joining and listening to free online classes or reading about topics she’s interested in helps her get through low-energy days.

How about you? 🙂

What's something you've been hard on yourself for lately?

Raise your hand if you've ever been tough on yourself over a situation—whether it was within your control or not—due to your health or other circumstances! 🙋 If this resonates with you, know that you're not alone. Many of us living with health conditions experience this. Symptoms and pain flares can affect how we see ourselves, making it easy to sometimes forget to show ourselves grace.

If you find yourself being overly self-critical in those moments, please be kind to yourself—you’re only human after all.

💌 Let's create a space for vulnerability today. And if you have a little extra energy, consider offering some encouragement to someone who might need it. Your words could help them get through the day.

How does the transition of seasons affect your mental health?

Hi, Mighty fam! 🌷

Today marks the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, and Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks is experiencing mixed emotions. On one hand, she's excited for the warmer weather and sunshine. On the other, she's noticing an increase in feelings of loneliness and sadness—something that's not entirely new to her but still unfortunate, especially since she loves spring and is relieved to ditch her heavy coat.

Can anyone relate? How do seasonal transitions affect your mental health? Which season impacts you the most? Which season do you look forward to?
