Description

Please note that this journal does not teach you how to use the Symptothermal Method for pregnancy prevention. If you would like to learn to use the Symptothermal Method, please browse the many courses and coaching options available on this website.

 

PEACE Planner hard covers:

• Meander onward beside the sunflowers, toward the mountains
• Let this cover remind you that the road to peace can be a beautiful journey
• On the horizon is a fine-line motif of our menstrual cycle seasons
• This is to symbolise how our productivity exists on the backdrop of our physiology
• It is normal for our productivity to wax and wane throughout our menstrual cycle
• The road to peace looks different for everyone

 

PEACE Planner paper stock:

• A bright white paper rises to meet every fresh cycle.
• Crisp, open, and waiting to receive your words, intentions, dreams and gratefulness in written form.
• 100gsm and designed to accommodate both ballpoint pens and colouring pencils.
• Ink pens will bleed through this paper stock – I recommend you avoid them.

 

Each PEACE Planner includes:

16 CHART TEMPLATE PAGES (see image gallery for chart template layout):

Each chart template contains enough space for a menstrual cycle of up to 40 days.

• • “I have 40-day menstrual cycles” – The Peace Planner will last you 640 days (approximately 1 year and 8 months)
  • “I have 28-day menstrual cycles” – The Peace Planner will last you 448 days (approximately 1 year and 2 months).
  • “I have 24-day menstrual cycles” – The Peace Planner will last you 384 days (approximately 1 year).

 

• Temperatures: On the left of the graph section, you will find a Celsius temperature scale. On the right of the graph section, you will find a Fahrenheit scale.
  • Please note: These two separate temperature scales are not convertible. This means you cannot look at the Celsius scale on the left and expect that the value will convert to the Fahrenheit scale on the right. Scales are not convertible.

• Cervical mucus: Includes space for written descriptive notes of visual characteristics and quantity. Includes a row for sensation at the vulva (Dry/Moist/Wet/Slippery). Includes a summarisation row of “Dry / Non Peak / Peak type”. This summarisation row is based on both sensation and visible mucus observations. The “Dry / Non Peak / Peak type” categorisation system is an effective approach common to a range of established Symptothermal Methods. Includes a Peak Count row for assigning Peak Day and the count of 3.
  • Please note: Different Symptothermal Methods utilise different types of cervical mucus charting and categorisation systems. Check with your instructor, as these cervical mucus categorisation options may not be relevant to your chosen FABM.

• Bleeding: Charts include a row to record bleeding. S=spotting, L=light, M=medium, H=heavy bleeding.
• Fertile Days and sex: Charts include a section to mark fertile vs infertile days, and keep track of sexual activity.
• Current cycle data: Charts include a section to keep track of current cycle data (current month/year, your age, your cycle number, your reproductive intentions [Trying To Avoid, Trying To Conceive, Trying To Whatever], the usual time you take your temperature each morning, and whether your previous chart was ovulatory. At the end of the cycle, you can also fill out which day your temperature shift began on, and the overall length of your cycle).
• Past cycles data: Charts include a section to keep track of past cycles. This includes your earliest ever temperature shift, plus a basic “Minus 8” calculation rule (providing a “last infertile day” calculation). There is also an option to opt for a “Minus 20” calculation rule (providing a “last infertile day” calculation) based on your shortest cycle length from the previous 12.
  • Please note: Different Symptothermal Methods utilise different types of calculation rules. Check with your instructor, as these calculation rules may not be relevant to your chosen FABM.

 

CUSTOM DATA TRACKING PAGES

Following each Chart Template page, you’ll find the Custom Data Tracking page. This is encouragingly titled ‘Keep Calm and Chart On’ – the perfect mantra for Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) users!

You can use this page as a habit tracker for things like taking supplements, drinking water, working out/exercising and meditation.

You can also use this page to track secondary fertility signs and symptoms such as bloating, acne, breast tenderness, constipation, migraines, energy levels, mood changes and more.

MOON PHASE TRACKERS (both Southern and Northern Hemisphere) 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026

• There are a lot of misconceptions about the moon and our menstrual cycles/fertility.
• It’s time to get clarity.
• Learn how the moon may or may not impact the timing of your ovulation. Learn about the origins of the myth that the moon can trigger multiple ovulations.
• Are you bleeding with the full moon, the new moon, or somewhere in-between?
• Track the trajectory of your bleed against the trajectory of the moon phases throughout the year.
• Is there a pattern to when you ovulate or menstruate? You’ll soon see if there is. 2023 is included so that you can look back at your past menstruation data, too.

Please note: Tracking moon phases is not a part of the Symptothermal Method and is not required to meet method effectiveness. Moon phase tracking is included for those who enjoy feeling connected to nature in this way. You can read more about why moon phases have nothing to do with pregnancy prevention here: https://fertilitycharting.com.au/2019/11/30/can-the-moon-cause-random-ovulation/
