【Gift】"Karada Mitsumeru Techo" (Body Awareness Planner) for health fluctuations *Updated 2/20

Many of you may feel vaguely unwell during seasonal changes or periods of environmental shifts, even if you can't pinpoint the cause.

At fermata store in NewStand Tokyo, we've prepared a special gift for everyone who purchases 8,000 yen or more of products in-store.

That gift is the "Body Tracking Journal." It was created with the wish that you develop the habit of paying attention to the small changes, or "fluctuations," in your body.

Why not start tracking your body's fluctuations with the "Body Tracking Journal"? We look forward to seeing you at NewStand Tokyo!

Introducing the "Body Tracking Journal"

The journal contains 95 common ailments that women often experience. There are many minor symptoms like "I've noticed more moles recently," "I've developed a wart on my neck," or "I'm burping a lot," which might make you think, "Now that you mention it, I have been a little concerned about that." All entries have been carefully created after multiple checks by specialists.

If you have a concerning symptom, open the journal and read the relevant page. It clearly explains how that symptom manifests through your body's mechanisms, and whether or not it could be a sign of illness.

Each symptom page has fields for "Related Symptoms" and "Date of Symptom." The "Date of Symptom" field is for jotting down the date you noticed the symptom. It's useful to make a note when you feel "something's off," so you can track whether the symptom recurs, or if it's transient, and know its frequency and number of occurrences. This can be handy when you visit a doctor.

Additionally, at the end of the journal, there are 12 months of "Body Tracking Graphs." Since it allows you to plot two graphs simultaneously using the left and right axes, you can decide which items you want to record at any given time, such as "basal body temperature and body fat percentage," "weight and number of exercise sessions," or "systolic and diastolic blood pressure."

In the margins, there are blank spaces to record your mood or little things from the day. For instance, jotting down "days you ate out," "menstrual days," or "days you had sex" with symbols only you understand can be useful for reflection.

The motif on the cover is a flower called "Calendula." In Japan, it's known as "Kinsen-ka," but it has long been used as a medicinal herb and carries the flower language of "wishing for health." The center of the flower is pressed with gold, causing that part to sparkle depending on how the light hits it.

Also, be sure to check out the "Body Tracking Notebook," a popular series item available online.
