Approach

Journalling is a really great way to sit down and spend time with yourself and your thoughts, it’s also a good approach to have regular reflections to identify areas in your day and life to make improvements on, or to focus more on.

The Daily Journal is split between the morning and evening. The first thing in the morning once you have woken up, clicking on the “Create a New Journal Page” button and fill in the below fields:

• Name
  • This is the title of the day’s journal entry, you can use whatever you like here
• Daily Affirmation
  • This is a field where you write your daily affirmation e.g. “I am a great person”
• I am grateful for ….
  • This is where you write three things you are grateful for
• Sleep Rating
  • This is single select field that uses a traffic light system for you to identify how your sleep was
• What would make today great?
  • This is where you write one thing that you would like to do on this day which will make it a great day

and then in the evening before heading to sleep, going to today’s journal entry and reflecting a little on the day with filling in the following fields:

• Today’s Highlight
  • This is where you mention at least one thing that was really relevant which happened on this day
• Mood of the Day
  • This is single select field that uses a traffic light system for you to identify how you felt on the day
• What did I learn?
  • This is where you write one thing which you learnt or discovered today
