Ways to care for your mental health

Journaling

Get it out of your head.

What this means

Writing slows thoughts down so you can see them. Your journal in MindHeart is private.

Signs to notice

  • • Thoughts looping
  • • Not knowing how you feel
  • • Bottling things up

Healthy coping ideas

  • • Write for 3 minutes without stopping
  • • Use a prompt to start
  • • End with one thing you're grateful for

Journal prompts

“What is on your mind right now?”

“What is something you can control right now?”

“Name three things that are going well today.”

“What do you want tomorrow to look like?”

“What is one thing you are proud of?”
