095 How Adaptogens Work with Samantha Attard

Stress can manifest in a number of ways - it might be trouble focusing, difficulty sleeping, or hyper vigilance. But when I also started losing hair by the handful this past year - I knew I needed something else. Adding an adaptogen to my supplement regimen did the trick but I had more questions. How do they work? Is it just mushrooms? Are they all created equal? So I reached out to Samantha Attard - an Ayurvedic coach and yoga instructor with a PHD in nutrition who is sharing everything she knows about adaptogens and how to get started. You’ll learn: What adaptogens are and how to use them Which ones work best for stress And where to get started if you need a little immune and nervous system boost All the links: - Sam’s website - spirocollective.com  - Happy Healthy Human Radio (Samantha’s podcast) - @spirocollective on IG - www.aewellness.com/mavens - Movement Mavens waitlist - www.aewellness.com/podcast - Show notes, links and more. - Join the free Body Nerds FB community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aewbodynerds/  - Come hang out with me on Instagram @hollaformala : https://instagram.com/hollaformala/  - Bodywork Starter Guide - learn the 6 places you need to roll right now for quick-relief, plus the reason why what you’ve tried so far has only given you a temporary fix.
