Tulsi Elixir | Adaptogenic _ salvialimone

Tulsi Summer Elixir | Adaptogen cocktail with MamaFlower

Tulsi Elixir | Adaptogenic _ salvialimone

I first came across Adaptogenic a while ago, I didn't pay much attention to them but the name stayed with me until recent, when I “met” MamaFlower and I thought on making together this magical potion. Magical is the closer word to my sensation when I drink this refreshing medicinal cocktail.

From my point of view holistic nutrition or remedies should be elements that work in harmony with our bodies to promote our potential and health. And I have found the word adaptogen so genial as they literally work adapting and stabilizing the body within its own potential.

For my first guest post we created a summer drink that is not only delicious but also medicinal. Uncomplicated and realistic. I am very much enjoying its gentle grounding power. I couldn't ask for more.

*for my children I blended the ice cubes in a Vitamix to make a granita, omitting the rose water.

Tulsi Elixir | Adaptogenic _ salvialimone

Text from MamaFlower at http://www.mamaflowers.co

Are you tired and rundown? Let adaptogens restore your energy. Feel like your
brain is foggy? Let adaptogens restore your memory. Adaptogens are extremely
supportive and have a gentle way to address all of the above symptoms and
more. They help our bodies “adapt” to physical, emotional, biological, and
environmental stressors. There are many different adaptogens including but not
limited to Ashwaganda, Astragalus, Shatavari, and Holy Basil. They are all
deeply balancing in different ways and depending on your constitution and your
circumstances, one adaptogen may be more appropriate for you than another.
Adaptogens restore balance to the endocrine hormones, regulate the immune
system, and overall help the body return to homeostasis by raising non specific
resistance towards such stress allowing our bodies to “adapt” to the stressors
around and within us. The knowledge of adaptogens dates back thousands of
years but scientific research did not begin until the mid 1900s. These plants are
non-toxic and as I said have a normalizing influence on the body meaning they
are capable of toning down the activity of those with hyperfunctioning systems or
stimulating those with hypofunctioning systems. This is a unique gift from these
plants and some say adaptogens have “intelligence”. As an herbalist, in my
practice, I use adaptogens to help “re-regulate a clients immune and
neuroendocrine system to allow them to heal, feel alive again, and prevent stress
induced disease."
I personally have been using adaptogens for years to help restore my energy and
they have been an ally to me. I find that I respond to adaptogens not only by their
specific indication but also to the season. What is beneficial to me in the
fall/winter doesn’t support me in the spring/summer months. Vice versa. This
Tulsi Summer Elixir I created has been such a support to me this summer as my
life is going through major changes like moving and getting ready to birth our
third child.

Tulsi

Aka Holy Basil, is a mild adaptogen in cases of fatigue and the Hypothalamus Pituitary Adrenal (HPA) axis deficiency. It stimulates cerebral circulation and therefore is beneficial for those with foggy brains and poor memory. It enhances immune function, has antiviral properties, and is an immune amphoteric. It is beneficial in cases of allergic asthma and allergies, helping to regulate blood sugar levels, useful in gas and nausea. Regular use of Tulsi helps lower LDL/VLDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Another bonus to this amazing plant is that it can act as a galactagogue, stimulating breast milk production in nursing mamas. When nursing moms drink it as a tea, it can also help ease colic in babies. I have also been drinking Tulsi tea for headaches during this pregnancy.

Lemon Balm

it is a mood elevator, helps reduce anxiety, and soothes the nerves. It is beneficial in times of stress or when your brain is foggy from overload. It may be taken by nursing mamas to reduce colic in their babies. It is a good choice for little ones having temper tantrums (or adults for that matter). Lemon Balm supports digestion by reducing gas, burping, nausea, and reduces excess stomach acid.

Linden Flower

Beneficial in cases of mild depression, anxiety, and irritability. It basically calms the nerves and spirit. Linden is useful in reducing stress headaches, sleeping difficulty, and mild hypertension. It's a sweet and pleasant tasting flower. One of my favorites in tea. :)

Hibiscus

It supports mild hypertension, elevated blood sugar, and cholesterol. Hibiscus is rich in antioxidants and is an anti-inflammatory. It helps regulate the immune system and reduces histamine production, which makes it a nice choice to use as a preventative or to reduce allergies.

Rosehips

They are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. They are helpful in musculoskeletal discomfort such as lower back pain, osteoarthritis, and, rheumatoid arthritis. The seeds in the hips are a good source of vitamin E.

The herbs in this recipe can be used as we do here in ice cube form.

I have a note sticked on my desk, set on my phone as wallpaper, even on my computer as screensaver. It goes like this “It always seems impossible until is done”. I found for me to grow as persona and as professional I need to see myself as I already own my dreams. They otherwise seem so far away to be impossible. I however believe that when our dreams are fair, built on truth (and tasty) they cannot fail. So inspired by @new__roots. This brand ethos courage and determination. Dreams can really become true if you believe them. 
My quiche recipe is on blog now, direct link in profile and stories.

Following my last rant 😂I had been listing all the things I don’t agree with and that I don’t want to buy into anymore💪🏼. What better way to start the week? Emotional garbage but also life choices🚽There are so many voices and people saying that making certain choices is too extreme or too harsh or too different. But today I want to keep it light. Just chatting about food, one of the hardest choice I had to make has been to give up cheeses. I am an emotional eater admittedly. I grew up with my grandmother making cheese, I love the process, the art of curating food as per se. I never thought vegan cheese could be curated just as dairy, and when I discover @new__roots it was a blast! 
Wednesday will be live the blog post with this recipe using their “free the caw” cheeses and also a brief interview to them along with the recipe! Keep your eyes peeled, this is going to be a good one! X

happened that after reading an inspirational article I also got suggested a podcast on basically the same stuff. Was it a call? I don’t know but prepare yourself for a proper rant. 
I had a lot of DMs about this so here I am dropping some bitter chocolate. 
Hey man I haven’t got even this little far I am now easily. Not even near easy. The dream I am chasing has become a plan over the years. Turning from a nebulae to a messy agglomerations of ideas that I had no clue on how to develop, into an actual plan made of actual steps. I started with no connections, no knowledge, not even a language. My start years ago was nothing but a hard fall on my ass. Quitting a draining job failing at making my dream work as fearful, young and at the edge of anorexia. The depression was thick fog over most aspects of my life at that point. Took me years to take the right direction. Then I started climbing. Then More years of climbing a 90 degree straight wall. Sometimes I climbed a meter with a jump, sometimes just crawled a painful inch, sometimes it was an achievement just to keep on holding. And I am still fucking climbing. I feel as women we should start recognising how far we have come. How damn far we have come galls. From judgment, body policing, abuses and all sort of repression. Even when sold as protection. We have been covered and naked as whoever pleased. We had no references to cling on. Even not having a fucking female super hero to relate as kids. We made what we haven’t seen. There wasn’t any female doctor and yet we become doctors. There wasn’t any female representative and we started representing ourself. There wasn’t any female nothing and we are becoming everything. Still we feel not good enough, we don’t risk, we play little, we compare. I fight with this things 24/7. I am so done with feeling small. Mainly because I have a daughter to pass my shit on. Because of her I realised that before becoming a better entrepreneur, woman, mother, lover I want to become my best friend. I so deserve it. 
We do punch hard gals, we better start believing it.

Hey people! Struggling with connection in Italy and with pouring rain. So I thought j might just leave a bit of spring here for you! 
Most beautiful cake ever with as beautiful gal @thelittleplantation.
I have read something very moving today. I started thinking I should share more about my journey to this feed. Not sure how is relevant to you and appropriate. Would you be ready to read stuff that are not all vanilla? .

This shot has been one of my favourite by far when I made it. 
Took me lots of effort to to arrive to this styling. Lots of mistakes, editing horrors, lessons learned the hard way. 
But when delivered to the world, is not mine anymore. Is yours, you decide if it is beautiful or not, you decide to stop and comment or not. Instagram Algorithm decide if worth to spread my work or not. Is not mine anymore. Also Elizabeth Gilbert says once her books are finished she doesn’t own them anymore. We own our creative journey, our smiles and tears. The fuel is the passion that makes you going back to your camera or desk or tennis racket over and over again. Regardless.
We have no power on what the outer world will do with our stuff.
.
In my last blogpost there are tips on how to mindfully approach Instagram, heartfelt guide that works as marketing plan. Just is very much humanised.
Love x .

I am definitely on a detox diet after being both at my in laws and at my parents in less than two weeks. I am officially overfed😂. Which is not too bad. 😉 Not cooking I have the time to deep dive into creating my newsletter serie about food photography which is taking a while to be delivered, I have so many notions to share and I am so excited and proud of what I am producing, it just take what it takes in terms of time. Meanwhile. 
Find in the stories the link to my last blog post about Instagram Creativity and beating the Algorithm. And let me know what is your take on it, the more you share with me the more I know what you need and therefore I can serve you better!!!
This squash soup with vegan bacon is on blog too. Xx

Recently more and more colours a e coming to my feed. We ate a pretty colourful diet but I always found easier to photograph brown food, infact it is all that my next newsletter will be about. And if you are interested on what to do to grow on instagram despite but also because the Algorithm my new blog post is live. 
Some of the topics are being specific, being grateful, being committed, being engaged and being unedited. Curious? :) direct link in the stories

Happy Friday guys!! I know today is bank holiday only because a couple of clients told me so when I offer them appointments today 😅. I am working hard on a serie about Instagram where I am putting all I know and my vision as creative. It is a bit different from what you have seen till now and the post is taking longer to come to life the way I want it to be.
However if is a cake that you want for Easter, well people I got you covered! Among the tonnes of vegan cakes I have made this one is a jaw dropper. Only Purple sweet potatoes lemon and white chocolate. And it is easy I promise you. If you don’t have purple sweet potatoes make my orange chocolate cake frosting with regular sweet potatoes. Both recipes are on blog at
www.salvialimone.com.

Happy Friday guys!! I know today is bank holiday only because a couple of clients told me so when I offer them appointments today 😅. I am working hard on a serie about Instagram where I am putting all I know and my vision as creative. It is a bit different from what you have seen till now and the post is taking longer to come to life the way I want it to be. However if is a cake that you want for Easter, well people I got you covered! Among the tonnes of vegan cakes I have made this one is a jaw dropper. Only Purple sweet potatoes lemon and white chocolate. And it is easy I promise you. If you don’t have purple sweet potatoes make my orange chocolate cake frosting with regular sweet potatoes. Both recipes are on blog at www.salvialimone.com. Happy Easter weekend!

Hello folks tonight I am officially exhausted but on a good note I have finished a massive chunk of work, terminated repainting my house and prepared for my 1-2-1 food photography workshops coming after the Easter brake. I am writing a food styling guide for beginner and you will soon be able to access it via my newsletter. In the interim enjoy my blogpost about mindfully managing creativity in this social media world.💪🏼 It is something I am very passionate about!

Spring is probably my favourite season, brimming with colours, sunny and still mild. Best inspiration for the Easter baking , on that note I am finishing last touches for this Easter cake recipe with double chocolate sponge and rainbow beets. They have a surprisingly fresh taste used raw. I grated them in the vegan frosting for the colour texture and sweetness. They worked even better than I thought!
Today I met one of the first people I admired here @valentinahortus, such an inspiring gal, and I have to say is very nice to talk Italian again! ☺️
