Mood Charts

Let clients focus on emotions they experience regularly (happy, sad, anxious, etc.) They can also track specific emotions or activities influencing their mood, especially during significant experiences.

To fill out a Mood Chart, clients typically rate their mood on a scale (e.g., 1-10 or using descriptive labels) at specific times throughout the day or week. Some charts also include space to note potential triggers, activities, or other relevant information that may have influenced their mood.

Moods can significantly impact the body through the mind-body connection. Positive moods can enhance well-being, boost immune function, and promote physical health. In contrast, negative moods like stress or anxiety can lead to increased cortisol levels and muscle tension and even impact cardiovascular health.
