Parts Mapping is your map to guide YOU and help you realize when different parts are activated. So, that means you can put on it whatever helps you to identify your parts. This includes: emotions, jobs, responsibilities, what other parts a part might work with, what that part looks like (picture representation), what a part usually needs from you, and what it feels like in your body when that part is activated. You are not limited to this list, these are simply suggestions. Your Parts Map might change over time as you get to know your parts more and more so don't worry about getting it "right" as this is an ongoing project. Suggestions to represent your parts: Draw them Cut out magazine pictures Clay shapes Cards to represent each part Words Anything else that comes to mind
