What are adaptogens?
Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms that help with a wide variety of stressors, such as: physical, biological, emotional and environmental stressors, regulating physiological function, and restoring metabolic balance.

How do adaptogens work?
Defined as non-harmful, adaptogens help with a wide variety of stressors by working intuitively with the pituitary, hypothalamic, and adrenal glands. Crucially, they do so by supporting equilibrium in the body. A plant’s adaptogenic qualities are often the result of its evolution in harsh conditions - the ability to adapt being necessary to its survival.

Our formulation process looks like this:

• Assess the need: what are the main struggles we are targeting and how does it impact people’s lives? E.g Sleep difficulties mean both issues getting to sleep and staying asleep through the night
• Choose the right ingredients: selecting the adaptogens and herbs that may help with this issue
• Refine the formula: assess which of these active ingredients go best together to ensure maximum efficacy
• Create balance: check the formula is energetically balanced
• Begin trials: make a trial blend and test on some volunteers
• Gather feedback: explore volunteer’s experiences and adjust formula as needed
• Trial again: make the formula into capsules (or teas or drops) and trial with a larger group. Tweak if needed
• Repeat (if needed): repeat the trial and feedback process until we’ve found the perfect formulation
• Launch: once everything has been checked and tested, we launch the new formulation ready to help those who need it
