100 Things We Have Or Want To Add To Our Self-Care Toolbox: 001. Paper Chain Diary

 100 things we have or want to add to our self-care toolbox
(AKA 100 Coping With Life Tools)

001. Paper Chain Diary

This is actually a mix of a couple tools that we found works wonders together and it is also one toolbox item that doesn't require many spoons. We can do this in about a minute before bed and it's wonderful.

It's a heavily modified version of The Paper Chain Project (which is usually used for recovery from self-destructive habits)

Our version is mostly for tracking our mindset mostly and as a record of days. And we've only just started doing one of these outworld. :) I'd like to get back into doing this, but i need more colored paper again.

color chain links are for good days
white chains are for bad days

And on the link, we write at least one of the following -
1. Something we want to congratulate ourselves on from that day
2. Something we're grateful for from that day
3. Something we want to work on the next day
