About this template

Self-care is easier when you can see it. The checklist splits it into four areas — physical (movement, water, sleep), mental (a break from screens, reading, learning), emotional (connecting with people, setting boundaries, self-compassion) and spiritual (meditation, nature, reflection) — with a few ticks in each. Below: today's small treats, one self-care appointment, a morning and evening mood check and a short self-love note.

How to use it

  1. Aim for one tick per area, not all of them.
  2. Book the self-care appointment like a meeting — with a time.

Who it's for

  • Professionals: Manage meetings & deadlines
  • Creatives: Capture ideas & inspiration
