Feeling Out of Control? Try Structured Journaling!


Often times when we feel stressed and overwhelmed all sorts of thoughts swirl around in our head. Instead of feeling like your mind is all over the place, take charge and get your thoughts down into ONE place. To avoid an unorganized journal ramble that may make you feel even more stressed, consider structured journaling.

Structured journaling is identifying your thoughts in an organized way. Each day, or night, you will use the same template to record how the day went. You can design your own template to suit your needs or you can use the one seen in this picture. Simply download by clicking here.

Another benefit of structured journaling using the same template, is that you can see change over time and/or identify patterns (for example, Do you rate every Monday lower than the rest of the days in the week? If so, why could that be?)

If the thoughts in your head feel all mumbled, try structured journaling!
