In this episode, we'll hear from Herbal Academy in a spoken lesson about adaptogens with herbalist teacher Heather Irvine. The episode is a blend of Heather's impressions of adaptogens and seven specific adaptogenic herbs — what they do, how they work, which herb to choose for who — and it also provides you an example of the balanced information, from introductory to advanced, you'll find in Herbal Academy's courses, particularly the Stress Management Course.

You'll learn a bit about how herbs can gently and positively influence the nervous system, endocrine system, and immune system (as well as how these work together.) She'll talk about the nuances and some common constituents of many adaptogens; saponins, complex polysaccharides, and antioxidants such as flavonoids in herbs like ashwagandha, eleuthero, gotu kola, licorice, reishi, holy basil, and rhodiola.Here are a few of Herbal Academy's course offerings, deeply discounted through September 13th:

  • Intro Course
  • Intermediate Course
  • Entrepreneurial Course
  • Advanced Course

And as the fall season is nearly upon us, not to be missed is my personal favorite:

  • The Mushroom Course!
