Energy diary

The energy diary can be used to gain more insight in your daily/weekly energy givers and takers, who influence your general energy level. The goal is to increase predictability and a sense of control, which decreases anxiety and stress. 

Good luck!

Sleep diary

Measuring is knowing!

The sleep diary is the cornerstone of every sleep training. Before you intervene and change your current habits, it better to first observe your baseline. You use the diary every morning for a week, preferably 2 weeks. The goal is not to  be as exact as possible, but to give a subjective estimation on how you experienced your night. So please, avoid looking at the clock during the night! 

Afterwards, the sleep diary can be used as your monitoring instrument, which allows you to keep track of the effects of your interventions. 

Good luck!
