Using a mood tracker

Tracking your mood might seem like a small act, but it can make a big difference to your emotional wellbeing. A mood tracker is a simple tool that helps you notice patterns in how you feel over time — and that awareness is the first step toward meaningful change.

By recording your mood each day (or even a few times a day), you begin to identify what influences your emotional state. Are certain situations, people, or times of day affecting how you feel? Are there habits — like sleep, exercise, or social time — that help lift your mood or drag it down?

Mood trackers can also help you:

• Recognise triggers for anxiety, low mood, or stress

• Celebrate small wins, like a good day after a tough week

• Share insights with your counsellor, doctor, or therapist

• Stay connected to how you’re really feeling, instead of pushing emotions aside

  
  

Your mood tracker does not have to be anything other than a journal entry, a colouring chart, or an app, the most impoirtant thing is consistency — not perfection. Over time, mood tracking can empower you to make informed, compassionate decisions for your mental health.
