Rare Disease

As humans, we experience a wide range of emotions daily, but the way we understand and process them varies from person to person. Factors such as health, past trauma, culture, childhood experiences, social norms, expectations, and personal worldview all influence how we navigate our emotions.

When reflecting on the emotions you experience each day, which ones do you find most difficult to feel and process?

The past only holds power over you if you keep replaying it. When old regrets or painful memories arise, ground yourself in the present. Take a deep breath, notice your surroundings, and engage in something that anchors you, like journaling, movement, or mindfulness. The more you focus on now, the less control the past has over you.

What’s one simple way you stay present when the past creeps in?

Ever feel panic creeping in, and your mind starts spinning out of control? 😵‍💫 Instead of letting anxiety take over, there’s a simple, science-backed trick that can instantly bring you back to the present moment.

💡 Here’s how it works:

✅ Focus on every detail—its shape, texture, color, even how it might smell or taste.

✅ Give it 100% of your attention, and watch as your anxious thoughts lose their grip.

The best part? The more you practice, the easier it gets—even in stressful situations like job interviews, first dates, or crowded places.

What's something you do that helps you overcome anxious thinking?

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? 🌸

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?
