Daily Self Care

DBT Therapy #14

Worksheet Description

The “Daily Self Care” worksheet is a component of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) designed to help students develop and maintain healthy daily routines. The worksheet provides spaces for students to record what they have done in a day to care for their physical health, such as eating healthy foods and engaging in physical activity. It also prompts reflection on personal hygiene practices. These sections underscore the importance of taking care of one’s body as a foundation for overall well-being.

In addition to physical health, the worksheet encourages students to consider their social well-being by asking them to note the people they connected with throughout the day and the nature of those interactions. This part of the exercise emphasizes the role of social connections in mental health and encourages students to be mindful of their relationships. By regularly completing the worksheet, students can build a routine that supports both their physical and emotional health, promoting a balanced approach to self-care. This tool aids in instilling habits that contribute to a healthier lifestyle and improved self-care practices.
