The main planning page is organised into six self-care areas: physical self-care, emotional self-care, social self-care, mental self-care, spiritual self-care, and fun and relaxation. Each box has four numbered lines, giving teens a simple structure for listing practical activities such as sleep routines, talking to someone they trust, hobbies, movement, quiet time or positive thinking strategies.
A daily self-care goal section invites the young person to choose what they will try during the week, making the activity more than a list of nice ideas. There are also reflective prompts for “When I take care of myself, I feel…” and “Reminders to myself”, which can support emotional literacy, confidence and personal reflection.
The layout is friendly and low-pressure, with doodle-style illustrations, hearts, stars and plenty of white space for writing or drawing. It is likely to work well with teenagers and older children who benefit from visual planning, especially those exploring wellbeing, healthy habits, anxiety management, self-esteem or personal routines.
Teachers, school counsellors, social workers, youth workers and parents could use the worksheet as a short individual activity, a wellbeing check-in, a PSHE or health lesson task, or a take-home self-care plan. It can also be useful in one-to-one sessions where a young person needs help turning broad self-care advice into specific, everyday actions.
The printable activity is clearly designed to encourage consistency without feeling strict or clinical, ending with the affirmation, “I am important. I matter. I will take care of me, every day!” The author named on the PDF is Edita Stiborova.
