Herbal Home Remedies for Anxiety

There are herbs that have been proven through the centuries to be effective in reducing stress and anxiety. Don’t let the scientific assertions that these herbs are not effective fool you.

They wouldn’t have stayed around for all of these many centuries if they didn’t work. Here are four that absolutely DO work:

1. Kava Kava: In ancient times kava was prepared as a tea. Today it can be purchased in capsule form. Kava takes about a week to work after it is started, but it will work to reduce stress and anxiety.

2. Ginseng: Ginseng has been used for many centuries to reduce stress and anxiety. It relaxes the mind and the body and is also known for its anti-aging properties.

3. Valerian: Valerian root has been used as a sedative for centuries and has now been proven effective in reducing anxiety and stress. Valerian also promotes sleep.

4. Catnip: If you don’t believe that catnip has a calming effect, put some on the floor and watch your cat roll in it. Then see your cat take a long nap.
