About this template

Log last night's sleep — bedtime, wake time, total hours and a 1–5 quality score — then tick how you feel (exhausted, okay, rested, energized, amazing). The weekly row from Monday to Sunday shows your pattern at a glance, and the notes area is for caffeine, screens, late meals or anything else that might matter.

How to use it

  1. Fill it in within 30 minutes of waking; estimates get worse by lunchtime.
  2. Keep it for at least two weeks before drawing conclusions.
  3. Write down caffeine, alcohol and late screens in the notes — they're common culprits.

Who it's for

  • Wellness Seekers: Balance mind, body & soul
  • Students: Track classes, assignments & exams
  • Professionals: Manage meetings & deadlines

How long should I keep a sleep diary?
