Mental Clarity

About Mental Clarity: Mental Clarity is a potent and beneficial blend for anyone looking to support focus, concentration, and memory. We combine 5 incredible herbs that all grow on our Biodynamic^® farm; each encourages clarity of mind and balanced mental energy. From the distracting nature of the modern world to aging, there is plenty of cause for a little extra support for keeping our attention with the things that matter most to us, whether personal or work-related.

Mental Clarity helps clear the mind and encourages healthy circulation around the body, with a special affinity for cerebral circulation. This means more nutrients and oxygen around the body and increased clearance of CO2 and wastes. An added bonus to this stellar formula is the cardiovascular and nervous system support inherent in these herbs.

Garden Notes: All of the herbs in this blend are growing on our Biodynamic farm and are tinctured fresh, soon after being gathered. The spirit of each of these plants/tree is unique and a gift to spend time with during the growing season. The aroma of Holy Basil and Rosemary are some of our favorite uplifting fragrances and flavors. The Gingko trees stand tall, are a part of our Sanctuary hedgerow, and generous with their uniquely-shaped leaves. Bacopa's tiny white flowers and succulent spreading stems are bitter tasting; it is a special calming herb to sit near in meditation. And Gotu Kola is also a special, quieting herb to sit near; nibbling on the fresh leaves regularly supports meditation.

Taste / Energetics: aromatic, sweet, salty, moving, revitalizing, clearing, opening.

When to reach for it: To support healthy aging. When initiating, engaged in, or finishing a project; working, studying, writing, reading; any artistic endeavor, or watching a documentary film.

Plant Profiles:

• Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) - Gotu Kola grows along the ground like the synapses of the brain or the connective tissues of the body. This wet loving, mineral-rich plant supports the cardiovascular and circulatory systems of the body with a special affinity for nervous system balance and vitality.
• Holy Basil (Ocimum sanctum) - Aromatic, delicious, and an adaptogenic mint-family plant, long revered in southern India. Holy Basil, a.k.a. Tulsi or Sacred Basil, brightens the senses, relaxes the nervous system, supports the immune system, and encourages overall balance, clarity of mind, and well-being. Helps to buffer the effects of stressors and keep things light and moving. The spirit of this plant opens the emotional heart and strengthens our inner capacity for compassion and resilience.
• Gingko (Ginkgo biloba) - This ancient tree has a deep affinity for circulation around the body from tip to tail. An incredible support for cerebral function and memory recall, Ginkgo deeply supports the integrity of the circulatory system and heart. We planted two gingko trees on our farm over 25 years ago. They are lovely and gift us many leaves in the fall that we tincture fresh.
• Bacopa (Bacopa monnieri) - Beloved plant from the Ayurvedic materia medica, Bacopa has long been respected for its use in supporting the mind, overall brain function, memory and concentration, retention of information, and the ability to synthesize information into thought and knowledge. Bacopa provides ease to the nervous system, calms the mind, and supports a daily meditation practice.
• Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus) - Rosemary has an important place in the formula. This common herb brings light and expansiveness to the senses with a meaningful effect on memory, awareness, and clarity. The aroma alone brings these wonderful qualities. This plant protects and blesses, with a strong affinity for cardiovascular system integrity. Gardeners often call Rosemary the herb of remembrance.
