Hey beautiful parent or caretaker of children, it's Lopa...and this is not your Mama's Baby Booklist. Before I begin, I just want to say: I'm honestly...

This recipe is super simple, uses minimal ingredients (I call these  pantry staples), is vegan, refined-sugar-free and is just so perfectly stogy, aka comforting! It ...

It's time for some Rasa Tiramisu ya'll!    Our love for the Rasa Fam is on a new level right now. We wanted to showcase...

In celebration of this day of all things women, I wanted to share a Rasa policy we recently rolled out to the bleeders on our team (side note: we lovingly acknowledge that not all who bleed are women, and not all women bleed. 💛)

There was this kid who sat behind me in math class who was SO ANNOYING—his name was Pat. He happened to look uncannily like Napoleon...

(It’s that time of year that I talk about my sex life, lol...I share in hopes that even one iota of this will be of...

Ditch the late night treats and settle in to an evening with a sweet and creamy Rasa brew. Made with our newest (& chillest) restorative tonic and dreamy coconut creamer. 

Lopa & Ben chat herbs, sourcing, benefits, & more about the newest and chillest addition to the Rasa family. 

Step into a  decadent afternoon, after-dinner or pre-bedtime moment of repose and self care with your new favorite blend that makes you feel lavishly embodied & deeply relaxed. 

You know what they say, you can’t pour from an empty cup. And Ashwagandha is here to fill your cup till it overflows allllll the way down into the sweet Earth in nearly every possible way. 

Modern life isn’t kind to our nervous systems. Every day at 2PM, our team has the option to do a “Rasa moment.” It’s a way for our team to connect to our Truest Selves and each other. I’ve recorded one for you, too, here.

Our team is committed to both healthily processing the emotions that keep arising—and then choosing to respond from a place of groundedness and values rather than reactivity. We are supremely imperfect at this and we are doing our best.

The Ways We’re Experiencing Joy: Your Curated Monthly Love Letter from the Rasa Casa So, 2020. The year that’s destined to be an adjective—in a...

We are a small business. Not tiny, not a one-woman show (by any means!) but we’re also not big enough to have 24 hour customer service. Speaking of 24/7 support (and how we don’t have it)...

No matter how this year has been for you personally, it might be that gratitude is a little, ahem, further under the surface than usual. This 8 minute mini-meditation is an easy gateway into the love and happiness that are inherent within, no matter your current mood.

Rasa’s Autumnal playlist is Called Elderberry Bear — a nod to the themes of our Elderberry Boost launch, and the way the herb shows up as a magical force in folklore, fairytales, and ancient herbal wisdom.

Through heartbreak and laughter, we just keep going; greeting the sun with each new day. Here’s what’s healing us, making us quake with irreverent laughter, and humbling us as we move forward, step-by-step.

Our Clinical Herbalist sits down with Lopa to discuss all things Elderberry!
- Elderberry’s amazing properties (hot damn they are impressive!)
- The deal with “fake” elderberry & real elderberry, plus how we source and quality control to deliver high-potency extracts & herbs (we are obsessive!)
- Why we super-duper need adaptogens in 2020

Elderberry Boost is a full-bodied blend to build & maintain a resilient, adaptive immune system. This blend supports the many pathways through which immunity protects us; a potent mix of circulatory stimulants and aromatics complete this powerful tonic.

Adaptogens are a unique class of herbs that have been scientifically proven to help the body adapt to stress of all kinds, physical, emotional and environmental. They both enhance the body’s response to stress and minimize the damage caused by stress. How does this translate to how you feel?
