GROUNDED

Nervous System Support • Emotional Balance • Botanical Calm

Grounded is a handcrafted herbal extract formulated to support nervous system wellness, emotional steadiness, and relaxation during periods of everyday stress and mental overwhelm.*

The nervous system is constantly responding to the demands of daily life. When stress becomes persistent, it can influence sleep, concentration, emotional responses, and the body's ability to return to a relaxed state. Some people experience this as restlessness, irritability, racing thoughts, or difficulty winding down, even when they are physically exhausted.

Grounded was created with these experiences in mind, bringing together six botanicals traditionally valued for calming, restorative, and adaptogenic support.*

Understanding the botanicals behind Grounded

At the heart of this formula is lemon balm, a member of the mint family traditionally used to encourage relaxation and emotional comfort. Lemon balm contains naturally occurring compounds, including rosmarinic acid, that have attracted scientific interest for their potential relationship with stress responses and nervous system activity. Preliminary human research suggests that lemon balm may support certain aspects of calmness, although more research is needed.*

Chamomile has been used for centuries in traditional herbal practices to encourage relaxation and digestive comfort. Its naturally occurring flavonoids, including apigenin, have been studied for their potential influence on pathways involved in relaxation. Chamomile is especially valued when everyday stress and digestive uneasiness seem to occur together.*

Milky oats and oat straw come from the oat plant, Avena sativa, but are harvested at different stages. Milky oats are collected when the developing oat seed is in its soft, milky stage, while oat straw consists of the plant's stems and leaves. Both have a longstanding place in Western herbalism as traditional nervine tonics, used by herbalists to support general well-being during periods of prolonged stress. Their traditional reputation is well established, although clinical evidence for these specific preparations remains limited.*

Holy basil, also known as tulsi, is a revered botanical in Ayurvedic herbal traditions. Classified in herbal practice as an adaptogen, holy basil is traditionally used to support resilience during everyday stress. Adaptogens are plants believed to help the body respond to stressors, although the term does not mean that an herb has been proven to regulate cortisol or restore hormonal balance. Small human studies of holy basil extracts have reported promising findings related to perceived stress and sleep, but larger studies are needed.*

Passionflower has a long history of traditional use as a calming nervine. Its flavonoids and other plant constituents have been investigated for their possible effects on pathways involved in nervous system activity, including GABA signaling. GABA is a neurotransmitter involved in regulating nerve-cell activity. Preliminary research suggests passionflower may help with certain symptoms of anxiousness and sleep difficulties, but the findings are not conclusive.*

Together, these botanicals bring several traditional herbal approaches into one formula: gentle relaxation support from lemon balm and chamomile, traditional nervine nourishment from milky oats and oat straw, adaptogenic support from holy basil, and calming support from passionflower.*

What makes Grounded different?

Grounded is not intended to force the body into relaxation or suppress normal emotional responses. Its purpose is to provide botanical support alongside the everyday practices that help maintain nervous system wellness, including adequate rest, regular meals, mindful breathing, and consistent self-care.*

Formulated with intention and rooted in traditional herbal knowledge, Grounded offers a thoughtful approach to supporting calm and steadiness without promising an immediate or identical result for everyone.*
