Let’s Make New Zealand More Electric

This month, our $500 Flow On Effect donation is going to Rewiring Aotearoa, an organisation helping speed up the electrification of New Zealand and move us away from fossil fuels.

We like what Rewiring Aotearoa stands for. That change doesn’t have to be big, it can start small, at a household level.

Rewiring Aotearoa represents everyday Kiwis in the energy transition. They’re working toward a future where every household can:

• Save money on energy bills
• Reduce carbon emissions
• Keep the lights on and homes warm
• Build real resilience for the years ahead

As a small, family-run business, sustainability isn’t an abstract idea for us. It’s personal. We think about the kind of world our kids will grow up in. We think about energy independence, stability, and doing things better than the systems we inherited.

We’ve personally made the shift to an electric car, an older model Nissan Leaf, it’s our town run about and we love it. Our next step is solar panels for our home to make the most of the Whakatane sunshine.

Thank you for being part of Flow State. Every purchase you make helps us contribute to organisations like Rewiring Aotearoa, building a stronger, more sustainable Aotearoa.

If you’d like to learn more about their mission, head to Rewiring Aotearoa and see how you can get involved. https://www.rewiring.nz/

Fear has a way of exaggerating things.

It took Chloe a year and a half to build up to this drop-in. Not because the ramp was big, but because the fear was.

Whether it's skating, starting something new, or taking a small step you've been sitting with for a while...the nervous system doesn't really care about scale.

We're big believers in gentle support over time. Movement, time in nature, rest, and simple daily rituals all help things feel a little steadier.

January's* Flow On Effect supports South Kaipara Good Food 🌱

A community-led initiative grounded in growing and sharing kai and knowledge, so whānau are nourished today, and tamariki inherit a more resilient, self-sufficient future.

Their work is about so much more than food security.

It’s about hauoranga: health and wellbeing.
Pāporitanga: strong, connected community.
Mātauranga: lifelong learning.
And tiaki taiao: caring for the land that sustains us all.

Check out their good work, get involved or dontate: https://skgf.org.nz/

We’re grateful to contribute this month’s $500 donation toward kaupapa like this, rooted in place, people, and long-term resilience.

Thank you for being part of the Flow On Effect 🤍

January will shout.

But the things that actually support health tend to be quiet.

Sleep. Simple routines. Daily care. And showing up again tomorrow.

New year. Same you.
And that's exactly where real change starts.

Just the two of us.

A small family business, run slowly and with care.
Built on answering every message ourselves, checking every test result, and doing the kind of behind-the-scenes work that rarely makes it onto social media.

This year brought some meaningful milestones for Flow State:

🌿 moving house and creating a dedicated office

📦 making real progress on our packaging redesign

🧪 continuing to raise the bar on third-party testing

❤️ passing $16,000 donated to Aotearoa charities through the Flow On Effect

AND Our community passed 2,500+ reviews (averaging 4.9 stars), which genuinely blows us away.

We’re proud to build Flow State in a way that leaves room for family, nature, and integrity; without rushing, posturing, or chasing trends.

Thank you for choosing small.
Thank you for choosing honesty.
Thank you for choosing mushrooms.

We couldn’t do this without you. 🫶

December has a way of speeding things up.

So today, we slowed it down with a walk with the piwakawaka.

Sharing this for anyone else feeling the December build-up.

Our final Flow on Effect of the year is here, and we’re finishing with heart.

For December, we’re supporting Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand (LBC), a charity that stands beside Kiwis living with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and other blood cancers. Their work is ongoing, deeply human, and mostly community-funded.

We’re also backing firefighter Billie East, who’s taking on the Sky Tower Challenge. 51 floors in full kit to raise awareness and funds for LBC. A reminder of the everyday bravery happening all around us.

And to you… thank you.
Because of this community, we’ve now donated $16,500 and supported 33 organisations since the Flow on Effect began.

The ripple continues. 🌿✨

Most people don’t realise how lightly regulated supplements are in NZ, or how much trust is placed in a label alone.

That’s why every Flow State batch is independently tested right here in New Zealand.

✔️ Hill Labs for third-party safety testing
✔️ for beta-glucan potency testing

Because purity and potency shouldn’t be assumed. They should be proven.

And every result lives openly on our website, every batch, every time.

Transparency isn’t a marketing claim for us.

It’s a responsibility.

Every November, we’re reminded how many men move through the world holding more than they let on.
It's the quiet pressure to “be fine.”

This month, our Flow On Effect is standing behind someone turning his pain into purpose: Corey Choat

Corey lost his sister, Sally, to su***de in 2019. In the years that followed, running became his way to heal and to speak up for the men who suffer quietly.

On November 21st, he’s taking on an incredible challenge:
6.8km, on the hour, every hour… for as long as he can keep moving.

We’ve donated to support Corey's Movember fundraiser, a small ripple we hope adds to the bigger wave of change he’s creating.

If you want to support Corey, amazing 👏

If you simply reach out to someone today, that matters too.

Most people assume supplements in NZ are tested before they reach the shelves.

That's not necessarily the case.

Under the Dietary Supplements Regulations 1985 (NZ), brands can sell products without proving what’s inside, no mandatory lab testing, no independent verification, no guarantee of purity or potency.

That means what’s printed on the label might not always reflect what’s in the bottle.
And in a world where more of us are turning to natural health products, that should matter.

At Flow State, we believe transparency isn’t optional, it’s essential.

Our organic mushroom extracts are third-party tested by NZ-based labs for potency (active beta-glucans) and purity (heavy metals, pesticides, and contaminants).
Then, we publish the results, publicly, for everyone to see.

Because you shouldn’t have to wonder whether your supplement is what it says it is.
You should know.

📄 Always ask to see the lab report.

Each month, a portion of every Flow State order is passed forward through our Flow on Effect - supporting projects that care for people and the environment here in NZ.

This month, we’re supporting Wai Wānaka, a local team working with individuals, farmers, councils, and schools to restore ecosystems, protect biodiversity, and keep our waters healthy.💧

Together our Flow State community has now contributed over $15,500 (and counting) to projects across the country.

Small steps, shared often, create real change⚡️

Our Story

Having started the superfood powerhouse that is Vitality Organics back in 2015, Dave Wylie found that one product gathered more conversation than the rest. That product was the ‘maca mocha with shrooms’.

Made of espresso, raw cacao, gelatinized maca, chaga, cordyceps, reishi, lion’s mane and coconut buttermilk, it had the town of Mount Maunganui buzzing.

It gathered so much attention that it caught the eye of Government officials at the Ministry of Primary Industries, who then proceeded to threaten hefty fines for the use of ‘novel’ ingredients (true story).

‘Novel’ products are those that haven’t been used extensively here in New Zealand.

These ‘novel’ ingredients included cordyceps, lion’s mane, and an ashwaganda / blue lotus blend we were using in another drink.

We also ruffled a few MPI feathers when we were serving the H**p 'dog-bowl' - when h**p was only allowed for animal consumption. A delicious smoothie bowl full of coconut butter, banana, cacao, h**p seeds and h**p protein, and layered with an assortment of toppings, it was for dogs only. We thought we were hilarious.

It is a shame to make these adaptogenic, potent mushrooms and herbs that have been used for centuries unavailable to the general public in a ready-to-drink elixir.

Hence the desire to provide a make-it-yourself concoction.

Born was the idea for Flow State, and here we are now. Fine free.

We encourage you to do your own research on these mushrooms. We’ve embraced them.

Flow State brings you a curated blend of nootropic and adaptogenic mushrooms. Lion’s mane, chaga, cordyeps and reishi. No additives. No fillers. Exactly what you want. Consistently potent, dual extracted (where required) mushrooms grown naturally on substrate materials native to each particular mushroom.

New Zealand owned and operated by Dave and Rachel, we’re confident you’ve found your new go-to nootropic and adaptogenic mushroom source!
