Bullet journal/mental health journal pages and ideas 💗

Former MemberFormer Member MiniposterPosts: 810 Part of The Mix Family
Hello!

So I’m sure that someone has created a thread like this before aha but after seeing @Jellyelephant amazing thread about self care boxes I thought I could do one for mental health/bullet journal pages 💗

I have recently discovered journalling and I’ve really enjoyed looking into different designs and ideas, it helps me to calm down and helps distract me 😊

Feel free to attach any inspiration/your own pages from your journals!

    Hi @Past User

    Love this idea! I have a journal and you have to write down:
    1. What made me happy
    2. What I learnt today
    3. What I'm grateful for 
    4. What I'm going to do tomorrow

    I find it really works for me especially on days where I feel like I haven't achieved much because it makes you remember the smallest things e.g. someone holding a door open for you or a really pretty flower that you saw.

    Sometimes if I don't feel like answering those questions (I sometimes find the what I learnt today one difficult), I just write a gratitude list: https://positivepsychology.com/gratitude-journal/ If you google gratitude lists theres some lovely examples of people sharing their gratitude lists and shows all the small things that you can appreciate!

    And then sometimes if I really just need a rant i'll just write and write until all my feelings come out. I find switching my methods up helps me think more and get everything out that need to say.

    @Stephanie I'm also interested to hear what a wreck this journal is?

    Pintrest is a good place to look at inspiration for different ideas - I’ve recently started one and it really helps me to calm down and enter a safe space when I’m struggling :) 
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.
