With the warmer days, bursting flower buds, busy bees, and the pulsing energy all around these are some of the practices (and medicinal mushrooms of course!) we’re mindful of to align ourselves with the qualities of Spring, supporting our physical, emotional, and spiritual harmony in order to thrive.

In the face of increasing levels of anxiety and stress we see the discussion of natural allies becoming more mainstream. We get asked a lot about the best mushrooms for stress in particular and since our last journal entry on the topic, there have been a couple of new studies and interesting conversations around mushies, stress and anxiety so we thought we’d dive back into the topic.
