Conflict

When digestion slows, the conversion of food into usable energy becomes inefficient. Poor circulation and low digestive fire create stagnation in the gut, leading to bloating, tension, and heaviness that dull both physical vitality and mental clarity.

Resolution

Breakdown reactivates digestive fire and parasympathetic function, improving the conversion of food into energy. Ginger and Wood Betony stimulate circulation and gut motility, Brahmi calms and focuses the mind-gut connection, and Cramp Bark relaxes tension restoring smooth digestion and turning stagnation into strength.
