You’ve been saying for months you need to prioritize your self-care, right? Well, why not start this summer? We’ve put together 30 days of journaling ideas specifically addressing your self-care.
Journaling about it is the best place to start. Everyone’s self-care is different. By answering each question, you can better understand what activities you’d enjoy and what areas of life you want to put more time into.
If some of the ideas are drawing blanks, have a look at our 5-minute self-care bucket list for some quick ideas. You can also keep things really simple with these ways to show yourself more kindness. This DIY spa night at home is also a great Saturday evening activity to do one week.
We’d also recommend some month-long gratitude journaling and some evening journaling for the month of June if you really like to journal. Both of these will help with shifting your outlook.
Oh, and if you want this calendar, you can find it at the bottom of the article.

Here is a full rundown of the journaling ideas found on the calendar. Answer one a day and, at the end of the month, read back through all your answers.
