Natural plants to help you sleep

Reishi is believed to promote the flow of vital life energy in East Asian herbalism.* Today, Reishi has a wide body of research around its use for supporting the immune system.

Because Reishi most often comes in a powdered form, you can also look for inclusions to the mix which will enhance the benefits. For example, when combined with the adaptogen Ashwagandha root, you may notice a sense of calm or centeredness, as Ashwagandha supports vital health systems disturbed by stress or poor nutritional health.* In Rritual’s Reishi Relax, these adaptogens work together to nourish the body and soothe the senses.* You can read a full list of Reishi benefits here.

Best way to take Reishi mushroom powder

If you are looking to support a good night’s sleep naturally, Reishi mushrooms are a great option.

To help your brain recognize that it’s time to sleep, a regular bedtime routine can be your best friend. Begin some calming activities an hour or two ahead of when you want to go to sleep to establish habits that your brain can identify as a signal for bedtime.

We all know that a warm beverage can be soothing, so consider adding your Reishi powder to a mug of warm water or non-dairy milk as part of your routine to help tame an overactive mind and provide those calming benefits.

How long does it take for Reishi mushroom to work?

Much like anything, Reishi mushrooms will not be a magic fix. You’ll want to consume it consistently to maximize the benefits.

Once you’ve discussed the addition of Reishi with your doctor, slowly add it to your routine. We recommend taking it every other day to start, to see how your body reacts. Because everybody and its needs are different, you may find that is enough. If you want to amp it up further after two weeks, you can make it a daily addition.
