A recipe for a relaxing milk with ashwagandha
Ashwagandha has a number of benefits including reducing stress relief, aids cognitive function, hormonal balance, and more. As much as we want to reap the benefits, it can be hard to include this superstar supplement in your everyday life. We found this recipe from our friends at Healthline that is the perfect accompaniment to our Recovery + Sleep essential oil blends to help you fall asleep better at night.
