🌹🧬🌹pov: my ancestors are cacao and rose. A cuppa cacao infused with rose feels like a sonnet written just for you. A warm cup of cacao sprinkled with rose marshmallows is your idea of comfort and connection. You seek moments of indulgence that feel both grounding and ethereal, where passion and tenderness are as intertwined as these two timeless flavors.🤎 This tahini hot chocolate served with a rose marshmallow is one of the best things I’ve had in a while. Thick, creamy and cozy hot chocolate made with heirloom cacao, mucuna, cacao butter, maple and tahini and topped with a homemade rose marshmallow. It is utter indulgence and feels like the most nourishing, relaxing and lux warm drink.

💧 Go with the flow. 🌊 Find your flow. 🌬️ Flow like water. 💦 Let it flow. There are so many iterations of expressions related to “flow” in the English language, but you might be surprised to learn that the core sentiments behind the phrase “go with the flow” can be traced back to ancient times! 📜 2nd-century Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, in his work Meditations, reflects on accepting life’s events as part of a greater natural order, writing: “Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away.” 🌊✨ The modern expression “go with the flow” gained popularity much later, in the 1960s, within countercultural movements that emphasized harmony with the present moment. 🕊️✌️ In both ancient philosophy and modern psychology, “going with the flow” embodies a mindset of aligning with life’s natural course, fostering resilience and presence. 🌟💪 To keep reading about the neuroscientific nature of the coveted flow state, tap the link in our stories! 📖🧠 🌞 Flow into our Solstice Sale… TODAY is the last day to get your order by Dec. 24! 🎄🎁 Get in the zone with exclusive deals ending soon: ✨ 25% off storewide with code SOLSTICEMAGIC2024 when you spend $100 or more. ✨ Select plant medicines are an extra 10% off (no code required—clearance items automatically discounted). 🌿💖 🌐 Visit our website now to browse our best-loved herbal formulas, ancient potions, new beauty and house tea essentials, botanically-inspired artwork, and much more! 🛍️💫 Sale ends this Sunday at midnight PST. #flow #flowstate #gowiththeflow #inthezone #animamundi #solstice

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.

Why does the earthy embrace of fall’s brown-hued flora ground and soothe the soul? 🍂🤎 Could it be that the subtle depth of the color brown has its own psychological and emotional resonance? Rooted in the essence of the earth, brown symbolizes stability, support, and groundedness. It reflects nature’s cycle of renewal and fortitude, harnessing the healing energies of the natural world. Research suggests that brown tones can foster a sense of security and calm, making them ideal for creating serene spaces that nurture mindfulness and introspection. From lighter tan to rich mahogany, each shade of brown brings its own unique energy. While lighter browns can evoke simplicity and warmth, deeper browns often convey a sense of strength and permanence. These perceptions are deeply influenced by personal and cultural contexts—brown might remind us of comfort and reliability (think: cozy homes and autumn leaves), or it might symbolize stability and growth (wooden structures, sacred grounds). Herbal wisdom behind the hues: 🍂 Light Brown: Oat Straw and Marshmallow Root offer gentle nourishment and grounding, promoting tranquility and resilience. 🍂 Tan: Plantain and Burdock Root aid in detoxification and internal balance, supporting overall well-being and stability. 🤎 Medium Brown: Cinnamon and Reishi Mushroom bring warmth and vitality, encouraging deep connection and renewal. 🤎 Dark Brown: Astragalus and Dong Quai provide strength and endurance, fostering fortitude and deep healing. 🍂 Earthy Brown: Valerian Root and Licorice Root soothe stress and enhance inner calm, creating a sanctuary of peace and balance. What emotions do these grounding shades evoke for you?✨ #brown #earthtones #colorpsychology #herbalism #grounding #stability

As summer’s vibrant heat gives way to the quiet coolness of autumn, we arrive at a powerful turning point: the Autumnal Equinox🍂✨ Celebrated on September 22, 2024, this celestial event marks a rare balance between day and night, light and dark, offering a moment to realign with nature’s rhythms. It’s a time to pause, reflect, and embrace self-care rituals that nourish our inner and outer worlds. Autumn is a season of harvest, symbolizing both physical and emotional transitions. Just as trees shed their leaves and animals prepare for winter, we too can release what no longer serves us, gather our resources, and nurture ourselves for the months ahead. The Autumnal Equinox invites us to reflect on balance—rest versus activity, reflection versus action, and releasing versus receiving♥️ When it comes to plant medicine, this is the ideal time to turn to grounding and nourishing remedies that fortify the immune system and support our bodies through the shift to cooler weather. Herbs like astragalus, echinacea, and elderberry are key allies in building resilience and preparing for the internal work of winter❄️ For centuries, ancient traditions have honored equinoxes as sacred times to renew our connection to the earth and spirit. Rituals designed to restore equilibrium to the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies are especially potent now, helping us enter the next phase of the year with clarity and purpose👁️ What are your modern rituals for holistic self-care during the Autumnal Equinox? Share your practices in the comments below—we’d love to hear how you honor this sacred time of balance⚖️ #AutumnalEquinox #FallHarvest #SelfCareRituals #HolisticHealth

Anybody else find it strange that Latinx Heritage Month—or Hispanic Heritage Month (official government designation)—awkwardly begins in the middle of this month?! As a Latina-owned business dedicated to sharing the people’s medicine with you, we couldn’t wait until September 15 to celebrate!♥️ Those who have been following us for awhile know that we honor Latin American herbal traditions year-round through hundreds of plant medicine offerings, free articles, educational experiences, and at our newly opened Costa Rica apothecary in our founder’s home country: @botanica_costarica 🌞 Still, this month provides a special opportunity for us all to pause and acknowledge the profound contributions of our people. In celebrating these herbs and traditions, we pay tribute to our diverse cultural heritages, aiming to deepen your awareness and appreciation of the universal value of Indigenous plant knowledge🌿 This list is by no means exhaustive!! Many traditional healing herbs used throughout the Latin American diaspora—including several more we currently stock in store and online, and others like Cat’s Claw and Sangre de Drago that will soon be available at Anima Mundi—reflect the lasting, living legacy of the Indigenous people on whose land these precious plants have long been cultivated✨ The integration of traditional knowledge with modern science is crucial for validating and expanding the use of Latin American herbs. Recent studies have explored the pharmacological properties of several traditional herbs, providing evidence for their efficacy and safety. Keep reading at the link in b-i-o and stories to learn more about the long-standing traditions of herbal medicine and the endemic healing plants of the Latin American diaspora🫶 #latinxheritagemonth #latinamericanheritagemonth #hispanicheritagemonth #latinaowned #latinamerica #southamerica #centralamerica #theamericas #indigenouswisdom #herbs #herbalism #animamundi #healingherbs
