Intro to Adaptogenic Herbs

We all deal with stress in a variety of ways. Some turn to exercise while others to food. Some turn to music, some to quiet mediation. Our bodies, however, strive to adapt and keep balance regardless of the situation or method. If you’ve ever heard me speak in person, you’ll know that I truly believe “the issues are in the tissues” and no matter what we believe, ideology will never beat physiology. It doesn’t matter what the thought process is, our bodies need and desire to find balance. This is where adaptogenic herbs thrive! These herbs are great for people who are depleted and stretched thin. For someone who has poor quality of sleep, for example, they fall asleep just fine, but they wake in the night or wake too early in the morning. These are signs that the body’s cortisol (a stress hormone) is out of balance. Adaptogenic herbs help bring cortisol levels into balance Check our calendar to see the next in-person dates!
