Sowing and growing:

Tulsi seeds require warmth and light to germinate so for best results sow indoors or in a heated propagator; sow on the surface and gently press the seeds into the soil keeping the soil damp until germination. Transplant or thin with a spacing of 30-45cm between plants. Grow in a warm and sheltered spots or a cosy greenhouse to get the best results.

Uses and benefits:

Tulsi is a fantastic rejuvenative to the mind and spirit. It will improve the circulation to the brain but also provide oxidative protection to the brain cells, and reducing neuro-inflammatory influences that are now known to contribute to a wide range of neurological and psychiatric conditions.

Tulsi is classed as an adaptogen because it has a stabilising effect on the adrenal responses and reduces cortisol and adrenaline levels. It’s ability to do this whilst also calming the central nervous system make it excellent for dealing with emotional trauma and helping you to ‘move on’ and find clarity. Tulsi will counteract brain fog and exhaustion, particularly after trauma, depression and anxiety. It also steadies the adrenal hormonal stress response allowing you to cope better under pressure. It has a significant impact upon conditions that are exacerbated by stress and anxiety, such as high blood pressure and tension headaches.

Harvest:

Pick a fresh Tulsi sprig and enjoy steeped in a cup of tea.
