How to use the year in pixels mood tracker

  1. Pick the year. Each month is a column (portrait) or a row (landscape), and missing dates are greyed out.
  2. Edit the mood labels, one per line. The key can print with sample colours, or blank circles you colour with your own pens.
  3. Choose squares for the classic pixel look, or circles or hearts.
  4. Print it and keep it next to your bed or in your journal.

Ideas for your colour key

  • Moods: amazing, happy, calm, okay, tired, sad, stressed, angry.
  • Energy: high, good, low, exhausted.
  • Sleep: great, okay, poor.

A mood tracker is for noticing patterns, not for diagnosing anything. If low moods last for weeks or feel overwhelming, talk to a doctor or someone you trust.

Track other habits for the year with the yearly habit tracker, or plan your days with the weekly planner.

FAQ

What is a year in pixels?

It is a grid with one small square for each day of the year. You colour each square by mood, so by December you have a picture of your whole year.

Can I use my own colours?

Yes. Untick “Print colours in the key” to get blank circles you fill in with your own colours.
