In the grand tapestry of life, our emotions are like vibrant threads that weave together our experiences, coloring our days with hues of joy, sorrow, fear, anger, and love. When in harmony, we can appreciate the richness of each feeling with a sense of equanimity, wonder, and underlying peace.
When these threads of emotion become tangled, however, the colors blur into gray, the greater pattern loses harmony, and many of us find ourselves living in anxiousness, overwhelm, and despair.
Banyan’s new Mood Support tablets harness the power of mood-enchancing herbs and flowers to soothe feelings of anxiousness and promote emotional well-being.
In the realm of herbal supplements and holistic wellness, Mood Support is a truly unique offering that synergizes ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern science to promote positive emotions and enhance mental outlook. This innovative blend nourishes the body with highly-researched herbs for mood balance, while also engaging your senses to create a truly uplifting experience.
Understanding Mood and Emotions in Ayurveda
In Ayurveda, achieving a positive mood is closely linked to the processing of emotions, which is primarily governed by sadhaka pitta, a subdosha of pitta. This subdosha, aided by sadhaka agni (the digestive fire of sadhaka pitta), plays a crucial role in metabolizing and transforming emotional experiences.
When sadhaka pitta is balanced, it reflects sattvic qualities of the mind, such as clarity, peace, joy, and happiness.
However, when sadhaka pitta is imbalanced, the ability to process emotions can be hindered, leading to a negatively impacted mood.
- A depleted sadhaka pitta slows down emotional processing, resulting in tamasic qualities of the mind, such as dullness, laziness, and feelings of sadness.
- An aggravated sadhaka pitta leads to over-processing of emotions, manifesting as rajasic qualities of the mind, such as anger, irritability, restlessness, and anxiousness.
Either way, poorly processed emotions can become lodged in the heart and mind, impacting mental clarity and creating painful impressions that disrupt one’s mood. These trapped emotions often manifest physically, considering how each emotion is related to an organ in Ayurveda.
Conversely, an accumulation of natural toxins (ama) in the body can cloud the mind and hinder the function of sadhaka agni.
To address mood imbalances, Ayurveda recommends incorporating practices such as mindfulness and meditation, as well as turning to supportive herbs.
A Look at the Formula
With this wisdom in mind, Mood Support was crafted to support healthy emotional processing and foster a positive mood. It combines herbs and flowers with sattvic qualities that enhance the function of sadhaka pitta, supporting emotional health and encouraging overall well-being in a truly holistic way.
Here’s a look at Mood Support’s key herbal players:
- Gotu Kola is an ancient rejuvenative herb for the brain and nervous system, and has been traditionally used to support memory and concentration.1
- Bacopa is a remarkable rejuvenating nootropic for the mind and nervous system that enhances awareness and mental acuity while also supporting a positive mood.2
- Shankhapushpi is traditionally renowned for supporting mental health and emotional stability.3
- Tulsi acts as an adaptogen, helping the body manage stress. It is celebrated for its soothing and uplifting qualities, promoting emotional balance and resilience.4
- Arjuna supports heart health, which is essential for emotional well-being.5 This powerful ally is traditionally used to promote emotional balance, particularly for those overcoming grief and sadness. It is believed to heal a "broken heart," to instill courage, and to strengthen one's will.
- Hibiscus and beet are both natural sources of antioxidants that contribute to cognitive health and a positive mood response. They also enhance the visual appeal of these tablets with their rosy color.6,7,8
- Rose and saffron provide a unique and delightful synergy of fragrance that promotes relaxation and a calm mind. In addition, saffron has been associated with improved emotional well-being and resilience to stress and rose is known to soothe and uplift the heart.
