What if the secret to nervous system healing wasn't just in the herb but in how it's delivered?
In this solo episode, I'm sharing my personal relationship with Passiflora incarnata — one of my favorite nervine herbs for the modern, overstimulated nervous system — including my go-to passionflower recipe for nourishing the nervous system, plus practical tips for growing and harvesting passionflower in your own garden. This one pairs perfectly with my recent conversation with Dr. Shawn Krosnick on the biology of Passiflora, so if you haven't listened yet, start there for the science, then come back here for the medicine.
