Symptom Mapping —
Symptom mapping is the practice of visually tracking the patterns behind what you're feeling, instead of viewing each symptom in isolation. Rather than viewing dry skin, constipation, or fatigue as separate problems, symptom mapping helps you see the underlying patterns beneath these symptoms that’s shaping your overall health.
It's not about labeling yourself with a diagnosis. It's about listening deeply to your body and identifying the repeating signals it gives you. Over time, you begin to see which symptoms are just reactions and which symptoms reflect your deeper, baseline state.
When you map your symptoms out, patterns that once felt random start to make sense and healing becomes a lot less overwhelming.
