Something Nubian

A Therapist-Backed, Spirit-Led Guide for Black Women Ready to Bloom + Prosper

Beloved, let me tell you—planners aren’t just pretty notebooks with dates. Therapists are out here co-signing them as mental health tools. Why? Because structure calms the nervous system, organization reduces anxiety, and writing things down gives your brain a break.

As a Journal Therapy Coach and planner creator, I see planners as sacred tools: not just for productivity, but for grounding, healing, and aligning with the cycles of your life. Choosing the right planner is like choosing the right crystal—it has to match your season and your spirit.

The Therapist-Backed Five Types

Overall Planners

Therapists say these give you both the bird’s-eye view and the day-to-day breakdown. Perfect if you need balance.
🌱 My take: Overall planners are like your garden journal—you see the big picture but can still track the blossoms daily. Great for women juggling business, homeschooling, and self-care.
✨ Chakras: Root + Solar Plexus.
🌙 Moon Use: Set New Moon intentions in the monthly view, release under the Full Moon in the weekly view.

Daily Planners

Therapists recommend these for busy folks who need accountability and habit tracking.
🌱 My take: If your days are packed with kids’ lessons, doctor visits, meal planning, or business moves, this one holds it all. Think of it as your emotional + task diary in one.
✨ Chakras: Sacral + Heart.
🌙 Moon Use: Great for daily check-ins during the Waxing Moon, when growth energy is high.

Weekly Planners

Therapists love these for pattern spotting and giving structure without overwhelm.
🌱 My take: These are perfect for mamas and healers who prefer rhythm over rigidity. A whole week laid out = less chaos, more clarity.
✨ Chakras: Throat (boundaries + speaking plans).
🌙 Moon Use: Sync your weekly spread with each moon phase for flow.

Undated Planners

Therapists highlight their flexibility—you can start anytime and skip without guilt.
🌱 My take: These are for healing seasons when life feels unpredictable. If you’re resting, shifting jobs, or managing health, undated planners honor your flow.
✨ Chakras: Crown (trust in divine timing).
🌙 Moon Use: Best during eclipses, retrogrades, or transitional cycles.

Academic Planners

Therapists say they’re perfect for students, teachers, or parents needing routine.
🌱 My take: Homeschool mamas, this is your friend. Academic planners move with semesters and give grounding during school seasons.
✨ Chakras: Root + Third Eye (structure + vision).
🌙 Moon Use: Aligns beautifully with back-to-school New Moon energy.

Guided Self-Reflection

Grab your journal and ask yourself:

• Am I in a season of detail or overview?
• Do I crave structure or flexibility?
• Does my planner leave me feeling empowered, calm, guilty, or free?

Ritualize the Choice

Light a candle, take a breath, and ask your spirit: What do I need most this season—structure, flow, or vision? Let your intuition guide which planner fits right now.

Closing

Remember: Your planner isn’t just paper—it’s a mirror of your season. Therapists see it. I see it. And I design planners that carry both structure and soul, so you’re not just staying organized—you’re staying aligned.
