My Stress Journal

One of the ways to deal with any overwhelming emotion is to find a healthy way to express yourself. This makes a journal a helpful tool in managing
your mental health. Journaling can help you manage anxiety, reduce stress, and cope with depression.

Instructions: Use the template below for your stress journal. The template will give you clear examples of when and why stress might occur and
tips on how to begin to manage it. The journal will be a daily diary and will span four weeks. Feel free to add additional rows if needed. Use the given
