  Feeling good and motivated is a prerequisite for optimal cognitive function. Is there a magic pill that will solve all your problems? Adaptogens! These are substances, such as herbs and mushrooms, that increase the body’s ability to cope with stress and fatigue. If you have been considering taking an adaptogen or are just looking to learn more about adaptogens, then this class is for you. Rhonda will give a rundown on how adaptogens work and the health benefits they offer. We will also make our own adaptogen nutballs which are a fun way to get a daily adaptogen boost and are super yummy!
