In this article, I am going to share with you how reishi mushroom has actually helped me overcome and let go of the tension that I used to be troubled with through most of my teenaged years, as well as my early twenties.

On top of the instant benefits in the meditation, I spotted that over the course of time I began to feel more meditative when I was just out in the world doing whatever I was doing, whether I was working or hanging with pals or simply walking in the park. I noticed I felt rather like I was in meditation or something. I just put it together and just really accepted that reishi was just working on the brainwaves even, changing from beta and more into alpha, just calming you down, helping you be more present, more in the moment, more relaxed, more just hooked up to the environment around you.

There is essentially some physical mechanisms that we can utilise to explain this. I think what’s basically occuring is, for one, reishi is improving your circulation. It’s working on your liver, it’s working on your lungs and working on your heart. So what's generally going down when we get stuck in our heads and we feel extremely irritated and extremely all over the place, is that our minds or our liver energy is actually stuck or stagnated or blocked or irritated in some form, so then our mind is just continually chattering, consistently going.

Then our hearts upset, our emotions are sort of upset, our lungs are sort of ruffled so we are not able to breathe and we're not able to process, we aren't ready to let go and filter things, so reishi comes in and it balances these things, improves the chi flow, improves the way chi is through the immune mechanism, and all of a sudden our energy is blocked up here, it’s actually flowing and circulating through our body more successfully so that we aren't just trapped in our head so much. Our hearts opening, we are feeling more attached to the environment around us, we are able to research and let go of things because our lungs are getting stronger, we're able to learn from situations and process scenarios much quicker, easily, and efficiently.

Reishi is also a great tonic for the nerve system, a tonic that is an adaptagen, so it helps us to handle stress and it helps lower stress, helps lower cortisol, it helps boost gaba in the brain which helps ussleep better and feel more relaxed. So it does all of these things, which then sum up to actually make it far easier for us to meditate, so much easier for us to boost and progress quicker, and easier on our trail. And that's what has galvanized me so much to make all these videos and inspired me to pick up a great deal about the herbs and lecture around locally and coach folks and do all these things, because reishi has truly helped me, has truly changed my life and has really helped me meditate, but also just be meditative period, irrespective of where I am. I'm calmer, more targeted, more relaxed, and more in the moment.
