Description

Settle Stress is uniquely formulated to soothe Liver Qi stagnation, support the overly taxed nervous system, and calm mental agitation. Settle Stress contains a  wonderfully balanced combination of Chinese Herbs used to maintain a sense of ease and flexibility of mind. Settle Stress is also an effective formula for use in women's health and PMS.

Wu Wei ZI, Schisandra, is included as an excellent addition of an adaptogenic herb. Adaptogenic herbs help support the body and mind during periods of mental or physical stress. Along with Yuan Zhi, which is well known for its ability to improve memory and cognition, and He Shou Wu, known for its anti-aging properties, Settle Stress is a harmonious blend of herbs that has the unique ability to help create a soft, supple internal biome.

When substances become dried out and brittle, they have a tendency to get stuck and break. In keeping our bodies, organs, and minds soft and supple, things will bend and flow with ease. This is the principle behind using Settle Stress in our daily lives.
