Revered for centuries as a “Herb of Longevity,” Gotu Kola is a gentle yet powerful tonic for the mind, skin, and nervous system. In Ayurvedic and Asian traditions, it is known to awaken clarity and calm the spirit while restoring the body’s vital energy.
Gotu Kola supports circulation to the brain and extremities, enhancing memory and focus, while nourishing connective tissue for healthy skin, veins, and joints. It is a favorite for students, healers, and those seeking mental balance and beauty from within.
Used both internally as a daily tonic and externally for skin repair, Gotu Kola is a deep rejuvenator — a bridge between earth and mind.
As a brain, nerve, and skin tonic:
Directions (Internal Use):
Steep 1 teaspoon Gotu Kola in 8 oz hot water for 10–15 minutes.
Drink 1–2 cups daily, especially in the morning or afternoon.
Pairs beautifully with Ginkgo Leaf for memory, or Ashwagandha for calm focus.
Affirmation:
“My mind is clear and my spirit is calm — I grow stronger in peace each day.”
