Create a Health Goal Journal Today!

Create a Health Goal Journal Today!

Hello! I want to encourage you today to make yourself a journal about health goals.

You can just purchase a notebook or an inexpensive journal at the dollar store.

First, write down a list of health goals that you have for yourself on the first few pages. They can be for your mental, physical, emotional, and/ or spiritual health.  

Then, write dates for the next week on the blank pages. Then write down at least a couple of specific goals that you have for yourself each day of the week. 

Then as each day passes, write down if you conquered the goal and why or why not.

Then, write down:
any self- care that you did that day---
as well as what you ate--
if you drank water or not--
if you got sunshine/ fresh air--
and if you got any exercise.

Then also rate how you feel each day (both mentally and physically on a scale from 
1- 10.

Next, take a look and try to see if there are any connections with what you ate, if you exercised, demonstrated positive self-talk, drank water, if you did any of your health goals successfully or not- with how you rated on how you felt.

Then you can help yourself to see if--------- you felt stressed all day with anxiety.......... and ate junk food?  

Did you feel depressed and stay on the couch or on social media for hours?

OR did you take a short walk, drink water, reach out to a trusted friend, ate healthy, prayed, took deep breaths, etc. ???

You get the idea.

These are just suggestions on how to create and use your health goal journal. You can tweak it to your specific needs and goals!  

Happy Health Goal Setting!


There is always hope!
