7 Mood Tracker Ideas + a List of Moods for Your Bullet Journal, Planner or Calendar

Are you interested in tracking your moods from day to day?


If so, I think you’re really going to enjoy checking out the following mood tracker ideas for your bullet journal, planner or calendar.


Mood tracking is a time consuming activity, but it is well worth doing. If you put the time in, there’s much to be learned from tracking your moods.


I particularly recommend tracking your moods at the same time you also track your wellness and nutrition.


For example, if you’re like many other mood trackers out there, you’re likely to find that your moods are better on days when you supplement with magnesium. But you won’t understand whether this holds true for you, unless you track your nutritional intake AND your moods together.


Take a look at the following ideas to see how other bullet journalers and planner enthusiasts are designing and laying out their mood trackers.

Please don’t feel obligated to spend a lot of time on doing mood tracker layouts. You can if you want to; but, if you have better things to do than spending hours drawing out trackers and charts, it is perfectly acceptable to buy ready-made mood trackers.


Personally, I like to use the mood trackers that come with some of Happy Planner’s guided journals and sticker books.

You can see one example pictured here. There are zillions of other possibilities similar to this one.

It’s not ideal to use all of these, because that would get overwhelming. It’s fine to pick a few of the moods you’re likely to experience and focus on those.

  • Ecstatic
  • Happy
  • Creative
  • Productive
  • Excited
  • Worried / anxious / stressed
  • Exhausted / tired
  • Sad
  • Disgusted
  • Calm
  • Content
  • Discontent
  • Angry / furious
  • Discouraged
  • Sorrowful / grieving
  • Meh
  • Mixed feelings

Furthermore, please keep in mind that you don’t have to spell various moods out using words. You can draw or stamp various emoji icons to use for your moods.
