The whole foods recipes are based on the research findings of Campbell’s father, T. Colin Campbell, who promotes a…

Need some midweek motivation? 💡

Motivational sparks of creativity help fill our lives with play, joy, and fun! These lightbulb moments often ignite passion, enthusiasm, and excitement, but we know that it can sometimes feel difficult to carry creative ideas forward and bring them into reality.

The challenges of the last few years have left many feeling uninspired to take forward action—this is okay and absolutely valid.

To combat feelings of listlessness, there are herbs that can make a profound difference in your energy levels. Used wisely, these allies can help us go beyond the limits of our motivationand take forward action to the next level. 🌿💪📈

5 HERBS FOR MOTIVATION

🌿 RHODIOLA (Rhodiola rosea) - Like a gentle kick in the pants, rhodiola helps spur enthusiasm by increasing energy levels. When it’s a little get-up-and-go zeal that you’re after, adding rhodiola to your daily routine is a fast-acting option for support.

🌿 ELEUTHERO (Eleutherococcus senticosus) - For those days when you’re feeling uninspired and mired by day to day tasks, eleuthero can give you that little (or big!) boost that you need to not just get through it…but to feel good doing it. Sustained motivation, here we come!

🌿 GINKGO (Ginkgo biloba) - If you’ve felt like your reserve of energy is not where you’d like it to be, ginkgo is an optimizer to consider. Powering ambition up and tension levels down, ginkgo offers a potent foundation to tap into reserves of inspiration.

🌿 GREEN TEA (Camellia sinensis) - Invigoration, immune-enhancement, and inspiration in a cup, green tea in all its varieties provides respite from fatigue. Adding green tea to your daily mix can help bring about your most expansive self!

🌿 COFFEE (Coffea spp.) - That’s right, coffee is often thought of as the ultimate plant-based “oomph” for low energy mornings. Full of antioxidants and health-promoting polyphenols, coffee in moderation has an uplifting and enjoyable effect on mood and energy levels.

Try this recipe for deep nourishment 🌘

The Waning Moon phase—the time in between the Full Moon and New Moon—is associated with darkness, introversion, going underground, rest, the end of the life cycle, vata dosha, and the autumn harvest. Rather than swimming upstream against the waning energies of this phase of the lunar cycle, it can be helpful to embrace this time of rest and slow down with herbs that provide deep nourishment.

This easy herbal recipe is made with dried, ground herbs and is enjoyable in hot water, hot milk, as an electuary, or mixed into smoothies and porridges. Enjoy this tonifying mix during the Waning Moon phase or any time your body, mind, and/or immune system needs a little bolstering.

WANING MOON HERBAL MIX FOR DEEP NOURISHMENT

🌘 4 parts ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) root, ground
🌘 2 parts astragalus (Astragalus mongholicus) root, ground
🌘 2 parts hawthorn (Crataegus spp). berry, ground
🌘 1 part ginger (Zingiber officinale) rhizome, ground

DIRECTIONS

This recipe specifies the amounts in parts. A part can be any measure, e.g., a teaspoon, tablespoon, cup, etc. Determine the quantity you would like to prepare, and mix all ingredients evenly.
Store in a closed container away from direct sunlight.
To use, take 1 teaspoon in a mug of just boiled water or warmed milk, 1-2 times per day.
