All natural anxiety fighters

Spotlight Post - Eve at DillyDesigns writes about herbal type remedies for anxiety:

  • Passionflower - an ingredient that is often used in natural medicine, alleviates hyperactivity, anxiety, insomnia, nervous tension — and is even sometimes used to treat Parkinson’s Disease. Passion flower soothes and calms and can lower high blood pressure.
  • Lemon balm - a general restorative for the nervous system, can reduce blood pressure and also calm the digestive system.
  • Lavender - an excellent anxiety treatment and one of the best natural panic attack treatments. Lavender is a general tonic for the nervous system and a natural relaxant.
  • Valerian - a popular natural ingredient that can be used as a sedative and a painkiller. It is often effectively employed as a treatment for anxiety and for insomnia, as well.
