Below are some questions to consider when performing a self evaluation in a Journal entry with Kin.
If you struggle with solitary Journaling, you could also copy these questions, and paste them into the Chat. Then, just ask Kin to ask you the questions in conversation for a more interactive Journaling experience.
Effective journaling prompts for anxiety
To get started with anxiety journaling, consider these proven prompts:
- "What's the worst that could happen, and how would I handle it?"
- "What are my anxiety symptoms telling me about my needs right now?"
- "What actions can I take today to support my mental health?"
- "When did I handle a similar situation well in the past?"
- "What would I say to a friend feeling this way?"
Self-care integration prompts
Journaling works best when combined with other self-care activities. Consider documenting:
- Sleep patterns and their impact on anxiety levels
- Exercise and movement activities that help reduce stress
- Mindfulness or meditation experiences
- Nutrition and its effects on mood
- Stress manifestations in your body (tension, headaches, etc.)

Poor sleep hygiene often exacerbates anxiety, so use your journal to track:
- Bedtime routines that work best for you
- Sleep quality and duration
- Factors that help or hinder your sleep
- Morning energy levels
- Late-day caffeine or screen time impact
