The Dialectical Behavior Therapy Wellness Planner is a practical
tool for the emotionally sensitive person looking for an easier way to
track emotions and behavior as well as monitor progress over time.
This book is a helpful tool for anyone who struggles with emotional
sensitivity and/or Borderline Personality Disorder to use as you work
toward creating a healthier, more meaningful life--a life worth
living--by balancing acceptance and change.
In Part 1, discover the value and details of mindfulness, distress
tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Next, in
Part 2, take the Self-Care Assessment and then get started with the
Daily Self-Care Tracker. After thirty days, take a new Self-Care
Assessment to see how you've grown!
Use the Planner to consistently track and report on your journey to
healing. It's a journal that helps you keep everything in one place, and
keeps you focused on where you are and where you want to go. Start on
any date with the monthly, weekly, and daily calendars designed to help
you plan for success as you practice skills and make a commitment to
daily self-care.
You can use it to:
- track your emotions and behavior
- monitor your progress
- bring structure into your day
Please note: the planner is not meant as an in-depth education or
training on Dialectical Behavior Therapy nor is it meant as a
replacement for diary cards or other useful resources in your journey to
healing. Instead, it is a supplementary tool for tracking your personal
progress.
