Informed, supported, confident

Welcome to Rooted Care's blog and resources. We're here to help you feel informed, supported, and confident in understanding your body and advocating for your care. Your symptoms are real, your questions are valid, and you deserve support that respects your lived experience—without pressure, judgment, or quick fixes.

Educational resources

Rooted Care features educational, supportive, and experience-based resources designed to help you better understand your health and feel more confident navigating care. You can expect articles that explain health topics in plain language, guides and worksheets to support self-advocacy and symptom tracking, reflective posts about medical trauma, chronic illness, and healing, educational breakdowns of labs, diagnoses, and common medical terms, and practical tools for preparing for medical appointments.

Example topics

Here are a few example topics you can find on our blog: "How to Advocate for Yourself When You Feel Dismissed by a Doctor," "What 'Normal' Labs Don’t Always Tell You," "Understanding Hashimoto’s Beyond Medication," "Medical Trauma: Why Recovery Is More Than Physical," "Questions to Ask at Your Next Medical Appointment," and "How Stress and the Nervous System Affect Chronic Illness," and "Tracking Symptoms Without Becoming Overwhelmed."
