From Burnout to Blue Brint: How To Design an Exceptional Life

Sage Dammers provides us with a brief introduction to the history of herbalism in Doist philosophy. An exploration of the most sophisticated system of herbology, Sage explains the 3 treasures of Taoism and the accumulative benefits that happen when consuming tonic herbs as they are intended.

Taking a deeper look into the 3 treasures of Taoism (Jing, Qi, Shen), Sage explains the core concepts in an easy to understand manner, providing the listener with a foundation to the importance of herbalism. Not only this, Sage draws conclusions from Taoism into modern medicine, communicating the modern terms and diagnosis associated with Chinese medicine terminology. Bridging the gap between the two, Sage offers an insight into understanding how tonic herbs can be used for today’s health problems.

Sage explains the science behind the extraction process of medicinal mushrooms, his recommendations on starting tonic herbs, and a list of his fundamental tonic herbs to take.
