Jiaogulan | Herb of Immortality

Gynostemma is native to South-East Asia and has been admired for thousands of years for its ability to prolong life. Commonly known as the “Herb of Immortality” in China, the Chinese traditionally drink Jiaogulan tea to boost energy, endurance, strength and, to combat fatigue.* It's known to the locals as “poor man’s ginseng,” or "southern ginseng" as it contains at least 100 saponins that are extremely close to those found in the Ginseng family. Interestingly enough, Gynostemma is even richer in these saponins than Ginseng!  Gynostemma is a highly powerful adaptogen.

Key Benefits:

  • Mineral rich: selenium, magnesium, zinc, calcium, iron, potassium, manganese and phosphorus

🧬💦Plants are incredible mediators of energy, transmuting cosmic and terrestrial forces into nourishment and medicine. Their intelligence works in harmony with our own bioenergetic fields, offering exactly what we need for healing and equilibrium. Whether through food, herbs, or even their presence, they remind us of our deep interconnection with nature’s rhythms. 🤎HOW you interact and conduct energy while making your medicine, shapes your medicine. When we engage with herbs intentionally, we unlock deeper healing. Here’s some ideas to activate them, but the most important is that you channel your own: 👁️ Infuse with intention. Plants respond to breath, voice, and energy. Hold your herb, whisper your intention, and exhale onto it to charge it with purpose. 👁️ Wake with water. Spring water amplifies plant vitality. Steep herbs under the sun, wash your face with healing water or sip tea mindfully. 👁️ Burn mugwort, juniper, conifers, or rosemary to awaken herbal spirits. Pass dried plants through candle flame + use the smoke to cleanse your vessels. 👁️ Movement integrates plant medicine. Drink nettles before stretching, inhale cypres before breathwork, or sip damiana before self-care rituals. 👁️ Steep herbs in morning sunlight for energy or moonlight for introspection. Infuse cleavers, violet, or dandelion in honey for an enchanting elixir. 👁️ Pick plants at dawn, touch the soil, and offer a song, prayer, or hair strand in gratitude. 👁️ Sing while stirring an infusion, place tea near a singing bowl, or play music around growing plants to enhance their energy. 🤎Our equinox ENERGY sale is live. Load up on favorite energizing plant medicines to further tone your energy circuits. We’re offering 50% off your third purchase in our Energy Collection through March 25.

If there’s one thing we all have in common, it’s growing old. But how we age? That’s a story we can help shape. ✨ Ever heard of *inflammaging*? 🔥 It’s a sneaky, low-grade inflammation that builds over time, impacting everything from your joints to your brain. 🧠 Unlike the quick, acute inflammation that heals a cut or fights infection, inflammaging works in the shadows, disrupting cellular repair and driving conditions like arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive decline. 💔 At its core, inflammaging is tied to *“zombie cells”* 🧟‍♀️—damaged cells that stop dividing but refuse to die. Instead, they release inflammatory signals that wreak havoc on your tissues, accelerating organ dysfunction and aging. Combine that with *immunosenescence* (the immune system’s natural slowdown with age 🛑), and you’ve got the recipe for those telltale signs of aging: fatigue, stiffness, memory lapses, and wrinkles. 💆‍♀️ Check our recent post on zombie cells for more info! 🔗 Good news: You can influence how you age. 🌟 Simple, holistic changes—like supporting cellular repair, flushing out senescent cells, and nourishing your immune system—can keep your cells feeling younger and more resilient. 🌿 This week on the blog, we’re diving into the roots of inflammaging, its cellular accomplices, and natural strategies to combat them. Covering everything from key nutrients 🍊 to powerful herbal allies 🌱, our herbalist insights will help you age vibrantly and gracefully—without the need for prescriptions or complex regimens. 🌻 With your future self in mind, don’t forget to shop our herbal allies for longevity, new apothecary arrivals, and more internal and external beauty essentials before our biggest sale of the year ends! 💫 🍄 **WE EXTENDED THE CYBER MON SALE!!** 🎉 15-33% OFF everything is still going on. Expires at midnight tonight. ⏳ … #animamundi #wellness #healthyliving #herbal #healyourself #healing

Whether I’m feeling lazy or inspired, I just love to make platters 🧀🥐🥑🍃 it’s easy, fun, social, decadent, most folks loooove it... and what I really love... easy cleanup! 😁 even if I’m alone and not feeling like cooking up a meal, I make a simple snack platter with all the goods. It’s great to have while you’re at work or just at home craving something YUM. Here are two sensational recipes by @sculptedkitchen to make a dreamy platter! 🍇🧀🥑🍃🔥Both recipes (+ the banana bread) contain some of our plant medicines, feel free to switch up the mushroom 🍄 or herb used. Or you can opt it out. 🧀Dairy Free Mozzarella🧀 INGREDIENTS 1/2 tsp of salt 1 1/4 cup of cashews 1tsp Cordyceps Powder 1 Tbsp of lemon juice, fresh 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast 2 tsp agar powder 2 Tbsp of tapioca powder 1 tsp of onion powder 1 tsp of garlic powder 1 vegetable cube 2 Tbsp of melted coconut oil 3/4 cup water or veg stock Blend all the mozzarella ingredients in a blender, scrapping down the sides Please don’t make the cheese thicken on the stovetop if you’re making it with this dip. Just place the blended liquid with the rest of dip ingredients and it will thicken in the oven. 🌵Spinach Artichoke Dip🌵 INGREDIENTS A medium bottle of artichokes, marinated, chopped. Keep the liquid inside the jar to mix in after baking. 10 cups of baby spinach, chopped. 1 tsp of Adaptogenic Mushroom Powder 1/2 cup of purple onion, chopped, softened slightly on low heat in a pan 1/2 tsp of sea salt 1 tsp of onion powder 1 tsp of garlic powder 1/2 cup of cashew milk. 2 batches of mozzarella cheese. Recipe above.  1/2 tsp of paprika, pepper for seasoning, and to taste for the top afterwards. Chipotle seasoning to taste for the top afterwards. 1. Place all the Spinach Artichoke ingredients in a medium shallow dish, including the mozzarella. Stir well. Bake in oven at 350F for 20 mins. Broil on low for 3 mins if broiled look is desired. Stir the pan and add in your reserved artichoke oil from jar. Sprinkle with paprika and chipotle seasoning. Dip should be creamy :) 2. Serve immediately. Leftovers will last for one day. ✨Optional: serve with iced or hot Golden Milk, Rose Lattes or Gynostemma tea ✨

🫖🪴🍃 Good morning precious souls! Gynostemma also known in Asia as the “Miracle grass” shares a remarkably similar medicinal profile to that of Ginseng. This precious weedy vine is regarded as one of the quintessential tonic herbs. The reason it is called southern ginseng is due to its similarities to the Panax ginseng family. It contains over 150 naturally occurring gypenosides. It also contains over 100 saponins (more than ginseng!) which are incredibly similar to those found in ginseng. Gynostemma is an adaptogen ⚔️meaning it supports our adaptive response to multiple stressors (biological, chemical, emotional, etc). Studies show that it also supports healthy activity of the immune system. In folk medicine it is used as a heal all, assisting the respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive systems 🍃Main actions found in Traditional Chinese Medicine: tonifies Qi, clears + expels toxic heat, enters the Lung and Heart meridians. 🫖When brewing it! Be sure to not use boiling water, stick to around 175f / 80c, like matcha or mate, and infuse for about 3-5min. Enjoy. You can even steep it up to 3x to take full advantage of the leaf. Or do an overnight steep and enjoy at room temperature in the AM. Our organic gynostemma whole leaf is here! this renowned longevity tea is one of the main ingredients in our collagen boosters. But now available as a delicious whole leaf tea 🫖🪴🍃
