TRUE or FALSE: It’s easy for me to keep up with my hygiene.

It’s Monday, Mighties… and you know what that means! A brand-new self-care challenge.

This week’s theme is hygiene — which is actually one of our most popular topics in the community.

For a lot of us who live with mental health conditions and/or chronic illnesses, keeping up with daily tasks can cost us "spoons" or energy. And hygiene is definitely one of those daily responsibilities that can be draining or taxing to stay on top of. No judgment at all if you can relate, we all have different limits and needs.

Do you find it easy to keep up with your hygiene or are some days harder than others?

Share a fun fact about yourself!

It’s Fun Fact Friday, Mighty fam!

Let’s cap this week off by getting to know one another a bit better. 😁⭐

Feel free to share any past achievements, talents, skills, significant life events, favorite books/TV shows or other things you enjoy, or even something that’s important to you.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks has recently been exploring and developing a passion for herbalism, learning how to care for herself and her family with plants. 🌿

What’s yours?!

What's something you’ve been distracting yourself from lately?

Whether it’s from health symptoms, daily responsibilities, work/school, stress, overall adulting (or all of the above!), sometimes a distraction is necessary in order to collect and recenter ourselves.
