• Ashwagandha is a powerful adaptogenic botanical that helps the mind and body adapt to both mental and cellular stress. It is one of the most balancing herbs for Vata dosha and helps to calm the mind, elevate the mood, and promote sound sleep. A rejuvenative herb with antioxidant properties, ashwagandha nourishes the tissues and circulation while aiding natural libido, reproductive health, and healthy immunity.
• Brahmi is an Ayurvedic adaptogen and brain tonic that calms and rejuvenates the mind and nervous system. Like ashwagandha, it is Vata balancing and helps with occasional feelings of anxiousness and worry. A brain and memory rejuvenator, brahmi supports healthy cognition and neurological function. It also supports the memory, promoting healthy dhi (intellect), dhriti (retention), and smriti (recall).

What makes our signature Ashmi formula so special? The pairing of ashwagandha and brahmi—two Ayurvedic brain tonics with adaptogenic properties that help the mind and body adapt to stress. Both are potent standalone herbs; we’ve blended them to enhance their benefits.

In Sanskrit, the name ashwagandha means “vitality/strength of a horse.” Ashwagandha helps the body and mind adapt to life’s stressors. It also nourishes the tissues and aids with natural immunity, libido, and reproductive health.

In Ayurveda, brahmi is sometimes referred to as Saraswati, the goddess of learning and the arts. That’s because brahmi is a potent brain tonic that supports the mind with learning, cognition, and recall. Our Ashmi formula (“ash-mi” = ashwaganda + brahmi) combines these two botanicals in a precise blend for optimal potency.

All Maharishi AyurVeda formulas are meticulously made according to the science of sanskar, Ayurvedic herb processing. Our experts take great care during collection, pre-processing, preservation, and evaluation of the herbs according to the classical Ayurvedic texts. Our farmers harvest their herbal ingredients from the right regions (either directly from cultivators, the forests of Western Ghats, or the Himalayan region) at the right harvesting time to ensure maximum yield and the desired phytochemical constituent. We use traditional harvesting and processing techniques to enliven the inner strength and vitality of the plant for maximum effectiveness.

There is a special class of herbs in Ayurveda known as medhya—extremely beneficial for the mind. These herbs are traditionally considered “brain tonics,” as they support learning, retention, and recall—and the connection between all three. They also provide powerful nourishment for the brain. Ashwagandha and brahmi are chief among Ayurveda’s medhya herbs.

This herbal blend is manufactured in Kerala in India—the birthplace of Ayurveda. The manufacturing facility is situated on ancestral land, overseen by a traditional household of vaidyas who have passed down the knowledge of Ayurveda for hundreds of years. The facilities include a modern laboratory, and a research center, merging ancient traditions with modern sustainability and manufacturing practices.
