Tigger, Equanimity & Diamond Mind:What they are & how they work.
“Our range of clinical grade mushroom powders, sourced from accredited growers, has shown very pleasing benefits for our clinic patients and is now available via our online shop,” says Jerusha Shulberg of The Well Being BY CUBEX.
“The first three being organic premium quality Lion’s Mane ‘Diamond Mind, Reishi ‘Equanimity’ and a fabulous energy-focused blend called ‘Tigger’ that is Cordyceps-powered at 50%, with Chaga and Shiitake at 25% each. Lion’s Mane mushrooms are known as the ‘smart’ mushroom, a.k.a. the brainfood mushroom, with cognitive benefits like improved mental clarity, focus, concentration and memory. They’re famous for this, and a study at Queensland University in 2023 showed that using Lion’s Mane influences nerve cell regeneration, positively impacting memory.”
Says Jerusha: “I’ve seen and experienced enormous benefits both personally and with clinic patients and, like with all functional mushrooms, there’s a cumulative effect over a period of weeks. However, if you’re using high quality shrooms, you’re likely to notice some benefits immediately, which will then consolidate after a few days.”
“Reishi is the calming one. We call it ‘Equanimity’ because that’s the overarching effect of this mushroom. It helps to regulate and ease stress and fatigue from our system. It improves metabolism and quality of sleep. But that’s not all it does. When you’re calmer, and your nervous system is nicely balanced, you move through life with grace and ease, more control, and a more effervescent presence. It lets you relax into just being. So you can imagine how this grounding effect would generalise to other areas of your life, helping you to achieve more, more graciously.”
“Our ‘Tigger’ blend puts Cordyceps front and center, capitalising on its reputation for boosting energy, endurance, and recovery. Shiitake and Chaga - making up the other half of the blend - are well-known for their antioxidant and immune-supporting properties, perfectly complementing Cordyceps. Chaga helps fortify the immune system, being full of antioxidants, and the Shiitake's fatigue-reducing benefits also add another layer of support to the mix. Tigger was no doubt inspired by my daughter and her love for stories about Tigger from her Winnie the Pooh collection. Always bouncin’!”
I think quality mushroom fans would be pleased to know that our mushroom powders are dual-extracted and then they go through a third purification process. The latter makes them smoother, finer and more luxurious in consistency, when you stir them into a coffee or any other kind of drink.
This double refinement means that they give you more go per milligram.
It’s about concentration, like the difference between an Americano and a double espresso.
I think we’re fortunate to have found producers who are highly regarded as a source for the world’s leading adaptogenic functional mushroom powders. They come from pristine growing and harvesting areas - connected to state of the art production facilities.
I’m keen to hear from other mushroom fans and get them to weigh in on what they think of our range. It’s a selection that talks to every kind of need. To be calm, to keep sharpening the mind, to have vitality and an upbeat, enhanced inner world. These are all important to how we relate to ourselves, as well as to others. In our clinic, we’ve seen enormous benefits among patients looking for some degree of respite from tinnitus, patients who’ve needed to boost cognitive function, and of course many who’ve found stress relief in functional mushrooms.
I’m excited. Each resealable pouch weighs in at 80g, offering a 40-day supply - which goes a bit beyond the usual ‘month’s supply
Let me know what you think!
