Start the year grounded, intentional, and fully supported with our New Year Self-Care Checklist. This thoughtfully designed tool is your companion for nurturing your body, mind, environment, and relationships throughout the next 12 months.
What you’ll get
- A print-friendly PDF checklist, ready to tick off each item as you go.
- A fillable/interactive version (for digital use) so you can type in your reflections and intentions.
- Clearly-organized sections covering:
- Personal Reflection
- Physical Wellness
- Mental & Emotional Wellness
- Relationships & Boundaries
- Home & Environment
- Financial Self-Care
- Self-Care Activities
- Monthly Check-In
- Space in each section for your own notes, intentions, and follow-ups.
Why this template works
- It’s holistic: covering all key domains of self-care, not just “take a bubble bath”.
- It’s actionable: each item is written as a clear, doable step you can check off.
- It’s time-aware: you get a prompt for a monthly self-check-in so you can consistently track your progress.
- It adapts to your lifestyle: whether you’re working full-time, studying, parenting, or in transition—you’ll find a section that speaks to your unique needs.
Ideal for you if you…
- Want to turn self-care into a year-long practice, not just a “new year’s resolution”.
- Need a structured but flexible roadmap for well-being.
- Prefer a downloadable, easy-access format you can use on your device and print out.
- Care about aligning your intentions, habits, and environment with your inner values.
How to use it
- Start by reflecting on your past year: what you’re proud of, what you might want to leave behind, and what you’d like your “word of the year” to be.
- Fill in each section at the beginning of the year—and revisit it monthly.
- Check off items as you go. When a habit becomes part of your routine, great! If not, reflect and adjust.
- Use the monthly check-in page to rate your energy, mood, and what’s working or not.
- Celebrate your wins, adjust what isn’t working, and move forward with self-kindness and presence.
