Habit-tracking after burnout
A gentle set of habits for people rebuilding a rhythm after burnout. No streaks, no leaderboards, no push notifications. The dotted grid was designed with this in mind.

Who this is for
Subscribers who are coming out of a period of overwork, illness, grief or exhaustion, and want to rebuild a small, calm rhythm without being scolded by a tracker that punishes missed days.
The two-app calm bundle
Habit Log (EUR 3.90) + Mood Weekly (EUR 3.90) = EUR 7.80/month, first month included. Two of the most inexpensive apps in the catalog, chosen because they are the two that do least — a dotted grid and a mood ribbon.
Why the missing streak counter matters here
Streak counters are designed to keep engagement up. They work by punishing missed days with the loss of a number, which for most people is a small dopamine hit. If you are already exhausted, the hit becomes a hit — a real one. HuntingtonMod' Habit Log has no streak counter anywhere. Missed days stay cream on the grid and nothing scolds you.
Starter habits after burnout
- Sleep before 23:30.
- Drink one glass of water before coffee.
- Walk outside for ten minutes.
- Eat at least one meal at a table without a screen.
- Do one small nice thing (a text to a friend, a phone call to a parent, a paragraph in a book).
Five habits. Not seven. Not ten. Start with five and add none for a month.
The Mood Weekly ribbon
One dot a day, colour of your choice. Do not force a smiley. Log grey days as grey. Six weeks of the ribbon will surface the days of the week that are hardest, which is data worth having.
The Sunday check-in
On Sunday, glance at the dotted grid for two minutes. Look at the ribbon. Do not analyse. Do not judge. If a habit is consistently cream, either the habit is wrong (change it) or the week has been genuinely difficult (leave it). Both are fine.
