Yeah, going from feeling like I was on a wild, unpredictable ride to “oh, I see what’s going on here,” brought some calm for me…
One day you feel like this…the next you’re like “wait….am I cured??”
You feel like this one day…..and totally fine the next.
That’s why just “going off how you feel” can make you feel like you’re losing your mind.
Because the data is all over the place.
Having a simple way to track what’s actually happening changes it from:
“What is wrong with me?”
to
“Oh…this again. Got it.”
Patterns start to show.
You stop second-guessing yourself.
You get a little more information and control back…….
In something that can feel wildly out of control.
From my own experience, I added a supplement and thought my sleep had SLIGHTLY improved, but when I actually tracked it?
It went from 5️⃣5️⃣% 🆙 to 8️⃣2️⃣% on average!
That’s not slight. That’s significant for this perimenopausal woman.
And I would’ve missed that completely if I was just going off how I felt from day to day.
That’s why I started tracking in the first place,
Feeling like the swings were too big,
Needing to feel a little more grounded in what was actually happening.
If you want the tracker I use, comment TRACKER and I’ll send it to you 🤍
