It may not always sound fun to fill out a planner or dedicate time to journal about your day. But journaling is a proven method to boost mental health by helping you process and name emotions, manage anxiety, track symptoms, and more. Journaling and memory keeping in a planner or aesthetic notebook can also help you collect memories and meaningful documents—even small things like a bus pass, concert ticket, receipts, stickers, and menus.

Plus, keeping track of your tasks and commitments week-to-week can be more fun by incorporating color with markers, stickers, or tabs. Whether you are looking to enhance your pen and paper practice or searching for inspiration to begin one, these cute planner products will make journaling more fun.

Planners

Weeks Planner

Hobonicci

The Hobonicci Weeks Planner is my favorite; it’s compact, has room for notes, and has both monthly and weekly layouts. It’s perfect for people looking for a small planner, and the Mega version has 200+ notes pages in the back. It’s a great planner to get into planning or memory keeping because there isn’t an overwhelming amount of whitespace.

2023 Planner

Moleskine

The 2023 Moleskine planner is another great option. The XL version has a dated, weekly layout on the left side and a lined page on the right. The soft-cover planner even feels similar to a notebook. This option has plenty of space for people who like to write reflections or have planning space.

Stay On Track Planner

Wit & Delight

The horizontal Stay On Track Planner has weekly layouts that will help you stay organized with both your plans and journaling ideas. The pages are undated and have weekdays listed, so it’s a great desk planner. Aside from the days of the week, there are areas named “Big Picture,” “Projects,” “Notes,” “Home Life,” and “One Thing For Yourself.”

Spectrum Mini Planner

Poketo

The colorful and aptly named Spectrum Mini Planner has 12 undated monthly layouts. Though the pages are numbered, you could easily cover up the number if you get out of sync or want to use the bright pages out of order. The daily boxes are large enough to fit multiple events or notes, as well as stickers or appointment cards, if needed.

Self Care Planner

Journey 180

Sometimes planning and journaling is an act of self-care. The Journey 180 Self Care Planner has 180 daily pages to track your tasks, emotions, and gratitudes.

3-Year Journal

Midori

This canvas diary has 366 pages-—one for each day of the year. The idea is that you write a memory on each page and then go back to where you started and loop through the pages two more times. You have the opportunity to reflect on past years and re-remember small details from years past that you may have forgotten. 


21-Day Habit Planner

Swift Wellness

We couldn’t forget our very own habit tracker! Let’s be honest, traditional planners and organizers often don’t have enough space to write and take notes. We’ve made each page extra-large, with plenty of room to write, take notes, write down important dates, and most importantly, successfully track your goals and make healthy changes towards those habits you want to create (or be rid of)!

Can’t decide between digital planners or paper? We’ve got a version for you no matter which you prefer!
