Anxiety - Herbal Treatment!!!!

[johnsenfrankin]

Hello All..

I have dealt with anxiety for years.Although it's normal to feel anxious from time to time.
Symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder may include restlessness, feeling tense or on edge, irritability, impatience, or poor concentration.

I have tried some herbal remedies and got much relief..So,I would like to share it with all of you.
Hope you people will get help too...

1. The herb passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) was used as a folk remedy for anxiety and insomnia.

2. Massage therapy, shiatsu, and other forms of bodywork are widely used to diminish muscle tension, relieve stress, and improve sleep.

3. Mind/body breathing exercises, physical exercise, yoga, tai chi,self-hypnosis, meditation, and biofeedback are just some of the stress reduction techniques used for anxiety. Try different techniques and determine which routine you can stick to with a hectic schedule.

4. The herb valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is best known as a herbal remedy for insomnia. Valerian is also used in patients with mild anxiety, but the research supporting its use for anxiety is limited.

5. GABA is an amino acid that is known to play a role in the physiology of anxiety. Some prescription drugs for anxiety work by affecting GABA receptors in the brain.

6. Aromatherapy - Plant essential oils can be added to baths, massage oil, or infusers. Essential oils that are used for anxiety and nervous tension are: bergamot, cypress, geranium, jasmine, lavender, melissa, neroli, rose, sandalwood, ylang-ylang. Lavender is the most common and forms the base of many relaxing blends.
