Some days your energy feels endless. Other days, it is gone by lunch. Spoon Theory gives you a simple picture for that: spoons as limited daily energy.
My Spoons Today is a colorful, 2-page printable handout that explains Spoon Theory in plain language and gives you a place to plan your own day. It is full of soft watercolor illustrations and keeps the words short, so it is easy to use when you are already tired.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Page 1: What Is Spoon Theory? An illustrated "day of spoons," plus what costs spoons and what refills them.
Page 2: My Spoons Today tracker, with a color-in spoon jar, an energy dial, a task-and-spoon planner, a spoon budget box, refill ideas, and short reflection prompts.
Delivery: Instant digital download (PDF). No physical item will be shipped. Print as many copies as you need for personal use.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
Anyone who wants a gentle way to notice and plan their daily energy, including people living with chronic illness, fatigue, burnout, or a heavy mental load. A therapist or counselor may also choose to use it with clients.
