ABOUT SPOON THEORY Spoon theory, created by Christine Miserandino, uses spoons as a metaphor for limited daily energy. People with chronic illness start each day with a limited number of "spoons" (energy units) and must carefully budget them throughout the day. Spoons helps you apply this concept practically—track your spoons, plan within them, and learn your patterns over time. Start tracking with kindness today.
