Why This Episode Matters
If you live in Laguna Beach or anywhere in Orange County, you have probably heard people talking about functional mushrooms for focus, energy, and stress relief. You might also feel confused about what they actually do, which ones to choose, and how to use them safely in everyday life.

In this episode of The Tea on Wellness, we look at some of the most talked about functional mushrooms, including Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Chaga, Cordyceps, and Turkey Tail. We explore how they can support mental clarity, nervous system regulation, restful sleep, and long term resilience.

As the only loose leaf tea and spice shop in Orange County with its own wellness podcast, Tea and Turmeric brings you a mix of science, tradition, and local stories from right here in Laguna Beach. You will hear how real people are using mushroom teas and blends as part of their daily wellness routines.

How Functional Mushrooms Support Everyday Wellness
Functional mushrooms are not magic bullets. They work by supporting your body over time. Many of them help with stress response, inflammation, circulation, and brain health, which is why people notice clearer focus, steadier energy, and better sleep when they use them consistently.

In this episode, I share how I personally leaned on our Happy Place Mushroom Tea during a time of fatigue and emotional overload, and what shifted when I started using it in a daily ritual instead of just once in a while. We also talk about safety, dosage, and what to look for in a high quality mushroom product so you are not wasting your time or money.
