Generally we recommend taking the herbs daily in small doses to begin with, this allows you to develop an understanding and acknowledgement of how the herbs are unfolding their medicinal magic for you. ✨
Start with 1/4-1/2 teaspoon per day, building up to a good heaped teaspoon per day once you feel it necessary within your unique body system. We call this sweet spot your "lifestyle dose".
Dosage is very personal, some people require larger doses - larger bodies, stronger constitutions, while others need smaller doses - smaller bodies, more sensitive constitutions. Your body will let you know if you need more or less as you experiment, and we encourage you to trust your body’s innate wisdom and intuition.
The flavour profile of the herb/blend will also influence your dosage range and often dictate how high you can take your dose. Listen to this guide as it is very useful in finding what is appropriate for you.
A dose taken in the morning is usually well received, however, you can take the herbs at any time that suits your daily flow and lifestyle. A warm JING is a wonderful way to welcome in your day, while Reishi is a beautiful nighttime tonic, assisting a restful nights sleep. Building your dose up over a couple of weeks is a really lovely practice and allows the space for awareness and understanding to develop in regards to how your body, mind and spirit are receiving the herbs. ✨
