The Nausea Map

A gentle reset, in your inbox within minutes.

Start with timing

Four moments. Four different needs.

Not all nausea is the same. When it comes tells you which pattern is speaking, and what to try first.

On waking

An empty stomach

Nothing there to steady you. Something small, before you even get up, can change the whole morning.

After eating

Digestion overwhelmed

Food sits heavy and nausea follows. Less, warmer and simpler helps more than eating more.

In the evening

Depleted by the day

By evening your reserves are spent. Rest before you are exhausted, and eat a little earlier.

Around smells

Senses on high alert

Heat and sharpness rising. Fresh air, cooling foods and a little distance from the stove.

The Nausea Map helps you find your pattern in five minutes, then shows you exactly what to do.

Why it keeps coming back

The quick fix is often the reason it returns.

In my practice, nine times out of ten, pregnancy nausea is digestion that has lost its rhythm. Most of what women reach for calms it for an hour, and quietly makes the imbalance worse.

Nausea rises→
A quick fix: crackers, lemon, ice, a snack→
Relief, for a while→
Digestion weakens, the dosha builds→
Nausea returns, often stronger

Eating and vomiting it back up does not break this cycle. Calming digestion does.

Page 5: the tracker

Track it

Two minutes a day, so you can see what is helping.

A breath, before anything else

Your baby is being nourished. You can stop forcing food in.

In these early weeks your baby is very small and draws on what your body has already stored. A few days of eating little does not take from your baby.

What helps now is calming digestion, so eating becomes possible again.
