Adaptogens. If you keep up with the world of wellness you have heard the word thrown around a lot lately. But why are so many going to extra lengths in order to add them into their routine? Simply put, adaptogens are herbs that support the body’s ability to handle stress, both emotional and physical.

Adaptogens are a broad family of herbs and plant medicines that have been used for thousands of years throughout the world. To be labeled an adaptogen, a plant medicine must fulfill at least three specific criteria:

🍄 They are generally safe (for just about everyone).

🍄 They help you handle stress.

🍄 They work to balance your hormones.

Adaptogens have a balancing effect on what is called the hypothalamic-pituitary-endocrine axis. This is the delicate balance between your brain and hormone system, and include your brain-adrenal (HPA) axis, brain-thyroid (HPT), and brain-gonadal axis (HPG). You need all these communication systems working in perfect harmony for a healthy mood, metabolism, immune system, and energy.

⁣ If any generalizations can be made about medicinal mushrooms it is that they enhance the body’s ability to defend against many forms of disorders and viruses. These properties are found predominantly in specific sugars found in their cell wall. Mushrooms contain bioactive metabolites capable of helping revitalize and modulate our immune systems, essentially kick-starting our body’s defenses. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

In the fantastical world of fungus, it’s hard to stand out. But the lichens have managed to do just that.

You probably see lichens every day, whether in your yard, at the park, in the forest, or even walking down a city street.

What is a lichen? Simply put, a lichen is a fungus plus one or more types of algae or blue-green bacteria that perform photosynthesis (that is, they use the energy of the sun to manufacture sugars, like green plants do). Some lichens have both green algae and a bacterial partner. The fungus and its algal/bacterial partner together form a complex structure (the lichen) that allows both partners to live in places they couldn’t inhabit on their own.

The fungus dominates the relationship, giving the lichen its primary form and its name. The algal/bacterial partner is usually confined to a single layer of cells, whose color becomes more visible when the lichen is wet.

Foraging is a way to feel connected. When we forage, we are connecting to the sun, to the rain, wind, soil and to the turning of the earth. I am connecting to living mushrooms fed by all these elements. A mushroom that has grown up in relationship to other plants, trees, insects and wildlife.

Come join us on guided foraging tours in the Portland area.

Do you want to go on a mushroom foray?

Our society is buckling up for a ride into the technological age, but our health still depends on the forests, herbs, vegetation, and mushrooms.

I want to offer my expertise for the Portland area to go on an adventure exploring the biodiversity of the fungal world.

No fee, no requirements, just an eagerness to learn & tap into your curious nature.
