KEY TAKEAWAYS
Mushrooms were the gateway for me in understanding how to positively interact with the ecosystem and be a part of it rather than just showing up and taking from a place
Mushrooms work really well with other homoeopathic medicines.
Mushrooms have a synergetic effect when taken together.
Chaga mushrooms are great anti-inflammatory and full of anti-oxidants.  
Mushrooms don’t have subtle flavours so beginning slowly and building can be the best way to start taking them.
Reishi mushrooms have a long history in Chinese medicine and is known for its properties supporting longevity. You can take Reishi extract at night time to aid good sleep
Lion’s Mane mushrooms have been proven to improve REM sleep and there is positive research on the benefits of taking Lion’s Mane extract.
It’s important to track yourself and how you are feeling when taking any mushroom extracts.
Pine pollen can modulate testosterone in both men and women, it is rich in naturally occurring DHA. It can modulate according to what the body needs restoring balance.
In the same way, mushrooms can help us they also help the environments they grow in. If you open yourself to the ecosystem then you can access your own ecosystem more fully.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Mushrooms are still very new in the Western World’
