Abstract: The majority of people who experience mental health issues also have poor physical health resulting in decreased life expectancy. Fortunately, many physical health issues can be identified and rectified by monitoring various health indicators over a time period. The Physical Health Diary is a tool that people can use by themselves and/or with others to track, monitor and improve their physical health over time.
