A 5-Day Power Aura Reset Plan: Herbal Protocols for Mind, Body & Gut
Why just five days?
Because you’re busy. Five focused days is long enough to calm stress chemistry, smooth digestion, and reboot sleep—without turning your life into a juice cleanse. Expect lighter, cleaner energy, better focus, and a happier gut.
How it works (the fun, simple version)
- Small and steady. Teas or tinctures 2–3×/day beat hero doses.
- Timing matters (your “Power Window”). Focus herbs in the morning; calming herbs at night.
- Food first. Herbs ride shotgun with protein, fiber, and real meals.
- Ritual > willpower. Same steps, same order—your body loves routines.
The Five Days
Day 1 — Downshift & De-bloat
- Ginger–fennel in the morning; green tea + rosemary mid-morning.
- Eat warm, simple meals; add cumin + coriander to soup or rice.
- Nettle or hibiscus in the afternoon.
- Lemon balm–chamomile at night, lights dim by 10.
Day 2 — Prime Digestion
- Bitters 10 minutes before meals (or peppermint if bitters aren’t your vibe).
- Salad with bitter greens (rocket/watercress), olive oil, lemon.
- Chew ½ tsp fennel seeds after lunch.
- Chamomile–peppermint after dinner; 15-minute easy bike or brisk walk.
Day 3 — Clean Energy & Focus
- Ginger–rosemary to start. Optional: rhodiola 100–200 mg or Panax ginseng 200–400 mg early only.
- Green tea late morning; big lunch with protein + a fermented side.
- Nettle–rosehips mid-afternoon.
- Passionflower–chamomile at night; three 25-minute Deep Work blocks during the day.
Day 4 — Nourish & Rebuild
- “Golden sip” latte: warm milk (dairy or oat) + ½ tsp turmeric, pinch pepper, pinch cinnamon.
- Low-caffeine day: rosemary–lemon balm for clear-but-calm focus.
- Broth bowl with garlic, ginger, and greens.
- Legs-up-the-wall 10 minutes before bed.
Day 5 — Integrate & Sleep Deep
- Ginger–lemon on waking; keep caffeine modest.
- Peppermint after any heavier meal.
- Sleep blend (lemon balm + chamomile); if you’ve needed extra help, a short trial of valerian (tea or 300–450 mg extract) tonight only.
- Wind-down stack: lights dim → stretch → tea → journal one win → bed.
