Best Herbs to Maintain Your Brain (Brain-tain!)
Are you wondering what herbs you can use to help you and your family transition into Back-to-School mode? Whether you’re still adapting to working from home, or, you have to homeschool your kids; you’re probably wondering how in the heck you’re going to be able to manage everything. It. Is. Hard. The good news is that there are plants out there to help you navigate the challenges you’re going through right now. In this three-part Back-to-School series I’ll be discussing herbs that can help you with memory, clarity, focus, and keeping you sharp in general; herbs to help you with the stress and anxiety that can come with so many expectations, tests, change, and all there is to balance. And what about your immune system? We all know Back-to-School time brings about tons of sniffles, coughs, and other illnesses, and now we get to do it all in the midst of a pandemic. Neato. No pressure, right? Since this time is all about learning and growing, let’s start with herbs that can maintain your brain, so you’re able to retain all of that wonderful knowledge and information, with a bit more ease. These herbs can even help you organize all of the new things on your to-do list, so you’re not stuck swimming in a sea of chaos. So, onto the Brain-Taining (yup, we may coin that phrase) herbs, shall we? Ginkgo (Gingko Biloba), Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica), Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) *further information on these herbs can be found on my blog* There are several ways you can take these herbs. You can take them in tincture form, as a tea (obviously my favorite), or if you’re into poppin’ pills, you can certainly do that too. Just make sure that wherever you get your herbs from, that they are sustainably grown and sourced, and made by some darn good herbalists! Admittedly, I start every day with some coffee and a good walk. But, then I move on to the Where Is My Mind??? Blend, which has the Gotu kola, Ginkgo, and Rosemary in it. It really helps me to stay sharp and focused throughout my day, without the jitters that you can get from too much caffeine. If, after you listen to the episode, you’re eager to get some of these herbs to your head, I definitely recommend trying the tast-tea Where Is My Mind??? blend! Hopefully, this episode helps you get an idea of how you’re going to Brain-Tain through all of these transitions. And if you found this information helpful, share it with your friends!
