Reishi Mushroom: The True Magical Mushroom

By Brandon Daemon


Reishi Mushroom is a 3 treasure tonic.

It nourishes the Jing, the chi and the shen. And its taste is sour. If you've ever had reishi, you know it's sour. There are a couple different grades, there's two types, there are a lot of variation for reishi on the market. The best is know to be Duanwood Reishi, which indicates that this was grown on a certain sort of wood scientifically shown to be more powerful.

Reishi is primarily being studied now and being bred and being grown for its immunological functions, for its adaptogenic functions, for its anti-inflammatory and liver-protective functions. Its spiritual properties are truly not in the forefront, although it can have these effects. But this is not really why people seem to be into it. Nevertheless this is part of the most significant reasons why I was attracted to it and why I continue to take it every day.

Reishi nutures the spirit.

So reishi, as a shen tonic, as a spirit tonic, is understood to burn karma, is known to help to help us release mystic luggage or any kind of negativism that we may be lugging about with us. It helps us open our heart and connect to ourselves, to our higher selves, to our higher consciousness. It helps us relax our brain more from beta and more into alpha state, and it helps us feel just like we are more in a meditative state all of the time, even though we are not a meditative practitioner. But if we are definitely a meditative practitioner, I could not imagine any sort of religious practice without this herb, as it can truly help remove the blockages and speed up the entire process and relay just burn up any type of negativity. And if you look at what reishi does in nature, it rots and recycles things, so it grows on old trees, rots and recycles them, so when we take it in, it decomposes and recycles old junk that might be drifting around in us, psychic poisons, psychological thought patterns and habits that no longer serve us.

So most folks, when they begin to take a good reishi that has this shen aspect, they see immediate tranquility, they spot the religious upliftment. It is dependent on how delicate someone is. Some people just say, "Oh, well, I feel a little calm," except for someone that's extraordinarily delicate, awfully spiritually in tune , energetically in tune or has their attention on things that are more theoretic, they can truly sense what is happening to their aura, to their energy field, to their chakras, and even on their karma, so to speak. So reishi is surpassing for this. It's the number one herb, in my opinion, for this. I don't know of another herb that has such a profound effect on the non-physical side of our being. Helping us in handling stress, helping us deal with all the pressures that are put on us by modern life. All of the stress, all the choices from too many decisions from modern stimulation"what should I eat? What should I do? Should I exercise? Television and media, our job, our boss, our elders, our teachers"everyone that is putting all this energy on us and desiring something from us, and reishi just helps us let go, stay inside, relaxed and chilled and just be in the instant and just say, "Okay, yes, okay, I'm able to do that, yep, OK, thank you!" and just be calm and receptive and open, instead of going into overpower and freaking out and screaming at everybody and creating this complete stress party. But reishi just helps us stay calm, be within, be centered, be grounded, throughout all of the highs and lows in our lives. For anybody growing on a path, it's the number one thing. And it's usually been sought-after by Taoist sages, hermit priests, emperors, kings and queens, and noblemen for this reason, because they knew, they understood, that it had this transformative effect to help us let go of old thought patterns, old habits, old things that no longer serve us.
