What's Up Wednesday 😎

Can you take a minute to tell yourself this gentle truth today? If you can, look in the mirror, and say it out loud to yourself.
Learning to trust yourself is very hard but it's very worth it.

What’s a goal that you’re working toward right now? What progress have you made so far?

Every step, change, or shift you make toward a goal is significant, even if it’s small. Progress is progress after all.

What’s a goal that you’re currently working on? What have you achieved so far? Are there any roadblocks in your way?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks made a goal to make sure she’s checking in with her energy levels and mental health. So far today, she’s been pacing herself, taking her time, and reflecting on her feelings.

Let’s cheer one another on in the comments below. 💌

Tip Tuesday

So many of us stay busy as a trauma response, or a way to distract our 🧠. Have we ever thought about how lucky we are to experience boring? Boring is actually a sign that it's safe.
What a healing though. ✨

What’s your favorite way to celebrate accomplishments?

When you achieve an accomplishment, it’s OK to be proud of yourself and celebrate — in fact, we highly encourage it. 🥳.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says her favorite way to celebrate is by buying herself something nice or going out to try foods that are new to her. In fact, she just took herself on an adventure yesterday because her mental health hasn't been great lately, but she's been doing her best to keep moving forward.

How do you like to celebrate your wins?

Not every opinion deserves your attention #Selfcare #Bipolar1 #Depression #MentalHealth #ChronicFatigue

Stop scrolling. Start thinking.
Not every opinion deserves your attention.. Read this twice.
Your growth will always offend those who fear change. Reality check.
The louder the criticism, the smaller the mindset behind it Stop scrolling. Stay focused.
Great minds create. Small minds criticize.
Stop scrolling. Protect your energy.
You don't need approval from people who lack vision. 🔥 @

TRUE or FALSE: It’s easy for me to celebrate my small wins.

🎊Cue the confetti! 🎊

Our self-care theme for this week is small wins! Whether that’s simply getting out of bed, finally getting to a task you’ve been putting off, or slowing down, taking your time, and pacing yourself on a high-symptom day, identifying and achieving a win (no matter how small) is worth celebrating.

Do you find it easy to celebrate your small wins? Or do struggle with it?

Start off this week’s challenge by sharing your thoughts in the comments below! ⬇️
