One of the main reasons I love bullet journaling, other than increasing productivity, is with bullet journaling, it helps in unplugging, getting off to yourself, and reflecting with simple pen and paper.
Creative Bullet Journal Ideas
With only a simple pen, a piece of paper, and your brain, you can journal a list of ideas down, track them, and smash those goals in there. But, one thing I realise with bullet journaling is that it is easy to get overwhelmed with ideas or run out of ideas to write.
That’s why I have shared with you a fantastic creative list of bullet journal ideas:

Tracking your periods is important this way one if you something irregular like heavy bleeding than normal this could be a result of some foods or drinks you ate during your periods. Yes, some foods are not period friendly.
And if you had pain last time what method worked? Do you want to reuse it and find a different one until you know what works? Have a page in your journal that you can track how your periods behave.
