Life Planner (Theme: Wood/Colourful)

One page per day. A whole life in view.

The Ramapani Life Planner is a digital journal, habit tracker, mood diary and year-in-pixels, all in a single Excel file. Each day gets its own page: pick a date and that day appears, type and it saves itself. Behind the scenes, every entry builds into weekly and monthly summaries, rolling trends and a whole year at a glance.

What we can track each day

• Mood and energy, rated 1 to 5, with words we choose
• Sleep: bedtime, wake time, hours and quality
• Steps
• Twelve habits or activities, renamed to suit our own life
• Up to three emoji, from a ready-made list or any emoji at all
• Top priorities, a bullet-journal task list, notes and a “grateful for” line
• A weekly review of what went well and our focus for next week

What it shows us

• This week as a habit grid, with averages and totals
• This month at a glance, with a bar for every habit
• The last 8 weeks and the last 12 months, side by side
• Mood by activity, comparing average mood on days with and without each habit
• A calendar shaded by mood: click any day to open it
• A Year tab with every day of the year as a square, coloured by mood and topped with its emoji
• All-time totals for days logged, steps, sleep and more

Little extras

• Six countdowns in days, hours and minutes, for holidays, deadlines, birthdays and the long-awaited descaling of the kettle
• A hexagram of the day from the I Ching
• One-click backup and restore
• Complete privacy: every entry stays on our own computer, and nothing is sent anywhere

Included

• The planner (.xlsm Excel file)
• A two-page getting-started guide (PDF)

Requirements

Microsoft Excel for Windows (Microsoft 365, Excel 2021, 2019 or 2016), with macros enabled. The planner does not run in Excel for the web, on phones or tablets, in Google Sheets, in Apple Numbers, or in LibreOffice. Windows marks downloaded files as untrusted, so the file needs unblocking once (right-click, Properties, Unblock). The guide walks through it step by step.

Ramapani Life Planner: Wood (colourful)

Excel daily mood, sleep and habit tracker

Wood is the element of growth and spring. A bright page, violet detail and a rainbow of mood colours mean every habit gets its own colour, and our progress grows across the page.
