Mindful Moments: A Quick-Note Journal for Anxiety & Depression (Printable PDF)

A calm, structured space to track your day, spot patterns, and gently ease anxious spirals—one quick note at a time.

Why this journal works
Most days don’t need long entries—they need clarity. Mindful Moments uses simple icons and short prompts so you can capture how you felt, what triggered it, and what helped—fast. Over time, these micro-notes reveal patterns and progress.

What’s inside

• Daily Quick-Notes page: mood, triggers, coping, interactions, end-of-day reflection.
• Monthly Deep-Dive: goals, positives, challenges, coping review, notable interactions, summary.
• Legend & Symbols: moods, triggers, coping, interactions for rapid logging.
• 30 Deep Prompts to Relieve Anxiety (e.g., reframing thoughts, power of perspective, hidden blessings, self-compassion, nature’s role, the bigger picture).
• Bonus 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique: quick sensory reset you can use anytime.

How to use
Start with the daily page. Mark your mood and triggers, note what helped, and close with a short reflection. Do the Monthly Deep-Dive to see what’s working and set intentions for next month. Use a deep prompt when you want to unpack a feeling.
