Dried Tulsi leaves
Tulsi is considered to have mild adaptogenic properties and can be enjoyed daily as a tea. An adaptogen is an herb that helps support a healthy stress response by balancing different processes in the body including the hormonal cascade, how the immune system functions, and brain chemistry. This helps bring the body back into balance when you feel like things have gone off track. For instance, if you notice you are reacting to a stressful event instead of responding to it, you experience migraines from the same triggering comment your spouse makes every time, or your appetite shuts off for the entire week a proposal is due.
