Natural Remedies For Anxiety
There are many safe non-drug remedies for anxiety, from mind-body techniques to supplements to calming teas. Some start working right away, while others may help lessen anxiety over time.
Chamomile
If you have a jittery moment, a cuppa chamomile tea might help calm you down. Some compounds in chamomile (Matricaria recutita) bind to the same brain receptors as drugs like Valium.
Green Tea
They say Japanese Buddhist monks could meditate for hours, both alert and relaxed. One reason may have been an amino acid in their green tea called L-theanine.
Lemon Balm
Has been used at least since the Middle Ages to reduce stress and anxiety, and help with sleep. While in generally safe, be aware that some studies have found that taking too much can actually make you more anxious.
Lavender
The intoxicating (but safe) aroma of lavender may be ''emotional'' anti-inflammatory. In one study, Greek dental patients were less anxious if the waiting room was scented with lavender oil. In a Florida study, students who inhaled lavender oil scent before an exam have less anxiety; although some students said it made their minds ''fuzzy'' during the test.
Eat Omega-3s
You know fish oils are good for the heart, and perhaps they protect against depression. Experts generally recommend that you get your omega-3s from food whenever possible. Oily, cold-water fishes like salmon are the best sources.
