It’s getting pretty cold here in the Northern Hemisphere, and Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks has already pulled out her long, heavy winter coat and started wearing indoor sweaters while working from home — a few weeks earlier than usual for her. She’s also been drinking a lot of tea to stay warm.

What are some ways you prepare for the winter months or stay warm when the temperatures drop? What are your winter must-haves? 🥶

You don’t have to fill every moment of your life with plans, people, and responsibilities that drain you.
You don’t need to say yes to everything.

During lockdown, many people realized how much peace came from stillness.
Now that the world is loud again, it’s easy to lose that clarity.

Protect your energy.
Cancel plans that do not serve you.
Say no to things that take you further from yourself.
You are allowed to live life on your terms.

When you live with a chronic illness or disability—and experience fatigue, chronic pain, or other physical and mental symptoms—rest and recovery become necessary parts of your daily or weekly routine. Folded the laundry? Take a nap. Went to the grocery store? Stay in for the next two days. Out all week? Spend the whole weekend in bed.

We all approach recovery time differently because we have different bodies and experiences, so we’re curious: What helps you on your recovery days? How do you approach rest? What are your favorite recovery activities? And what are your rest and recovery boundaries?

Advocating for each of our unique health circumstances requires us to put ourselves out there, share, and communicate how we’re REALLY doing with those around us. This isn’t always easy, especially in spaces with lackluster medical professionals, toxic employers, or less supportive family and friends.

What do you find most challenging when it comes to advocating for your health?

We spend so much energy trying to look or be a certain way.
To be beautiful, impressive, admired, or accepted.

Realness has its own kind of beauty — the kind that doesn’t fade when you’re tired or sad or unsure.

It’s the way you show up even when you feel messy.
It’s the way you care when it would be easier not to.
It’s the courage to be honest instead of perfect.

You don’t need to chase beauty.
You just need to come home to yourself.

What part of yourself do you want to stop hiding and start embracing? 👇

Hi, Mighty friends! 💖

How is this Monday treating you? How’s your body feeling right now? Where are you noticing pain, fatigue, or discomfort? How’s your mental health today? What’s been on your mind?

Feel free to check in with us in the comments below! 📮

Our topic for this week's self-care challenge is self-advocacy.

When talking about advocacy, we're referring to the skills and understanding to know one's needs and openly and effectively communicate those needs to others, whether that be for ourselves or on behalf of those around us.

How do you feel about self-advocacy? Do you find it easier to advocate for yourself or for others?
