Are you looking for an all-in-one guide to everything wonderful that plants can do for your body and mind? Look no further than Nicolette and Elaine Perry’s new book, Your Brain on Plants. Covering everything from calming balms to plant-based pain relievers, this mother-daughter team has compiled detailed summaries for many medicinal plants and herbs, including what they are used for, what the science says about them, and guidelines for using them safely. They also include recipes for cordials, foods, teas, and tinctures that can help you sleep more soundly, feel less stress, boost your memory, and feel your best. The Perrys include information about complementary wellness practices (meditation, qi gong, walking) that can work together with plants to alleviate unwanted symptoms.
