ADVICE

Start With Basic Self Care Before Adaptogens

  • Meet people where they are: prioritize simple food, sleep, tea and basic self‑care before trendy supplements.
  • Rachelle teaches pragmatic one‑on‑one changes (cook, bedtimes, tea) because they often fix issues adaptogens can't.
INSIGHT

Adaptogen Is An Overused Marketing Umbrella

  • The term adaptogen became a marketing umbrella and is often misused as a synonym for all herbs, which confuses consumers.
  • True adaptogens meet criteria (nonspecific, normalizing, non‑toxic) and are a small subset of plants; many other herbs may be better choices.
ADVICE

Design A Plant‑Forward Morning As A Daily Toolkit

  • Build a liquid morning routine: water, chlorophyll or broth, a circulation tincture, probiotic, and targeted tinctures like ashwagandha or mucuna for dopamine.
  • Rachelle often delays solid food until midday and pairs L‑theanine with coffee for focused calm.
