I don’t know about you but I’m sick of reading articles that give you very little information. I would like to offer you some REAL help with your anxiety because I know what it’s like to be seeking the answers that never come.

If you’re looking at this article you’re probably looking for some kind of list of natural remedies that are easy and effective. Well, all I can offer you here is my own experience. Here is my list of the 7 best natural remedies available today.

Firstly, if you are looking for natural remedies that focus on relaxing and calming you down to relieve your symptoms these natural remedies are for you.

  1. Practicing relaxation and breathing exercises diverts your attention from fear to a sense of stillness. All ‘fear’ is set in the future. Fear of failing, fear of rejection, fear of falling from a height and so on. Yoga for example, is great for removing your fear of the future and bringing you back into the present.

  2. Valerian Root: Valerian Root has been used since the times of ancient Rome and Greece to relieve tension and promote sleep. Today Valerian root comes in pills for those who are unlikely to use a pestle and mortar to administer their anxiety relief. Valerian root in capsule form is widely available and offers sufferers relief with the added benefit of time release.

  3. Lavender: The scent of lavender is calming, and is a choice for children suffering from anxiety. There are a number of ways to incorporate lavender into an anxiety treatment. Simply adding the scent of lavender to your bathtub or oil burner can be very effective. Lavender tea is another popular calming way to use this.

  4. Passionflower: Despite its somewhat misleading name, the passionflower has a sedative effect. Passionflower treats anxiety, nervousness and insomnia.

  5. St. John’s Wort: St John’s Wort is widely known for its anti-depressant effect. St. John’s Wort should not be combined with anti depressants due to negative side effects.

Keep in mind that these herbs work differently for everyone. You might find one of these herbs for anxiety works better than others. I know that some sufferers have had success with a number of these herbs in combination with each other but please, always research the side-effects before combining herbs!

Number 6 on this natural remedy list is… yes you’ve probably heard it before… it’s:

  1. A natural, healthy diet. This is a biggie! Over-stimulating your body with caffeine, processed foods, and sugars will lead to an over-stimulated mind which manifests as anxiety. Make sure your body is getting a lot of fresh fruit and veg, as well as other slow-energy release foods like seeds, nuts, grains and legumes.

The last natural remedy is for people who are looking to cure their anxiety naturally. This remedy will give you the tools to be able to cure your anxiety yourself. That is, naturally and without drugs.

  1. Let your mind do the exercises. There are many great online therapy programs out there that are designed to cure your anxiety. This may sound like a bunch of hype but I assure you, this is the natural remedy that worked best for me. While researching online therapy courses, I discovered a study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry that interested me greatly. It showed patients that underwent an online-therapy course experienced immediate and long term relief from their anxiety. They also concluded that online-therapy could, or should, replace conventional anti-anxiety methods, namely drugs and psychotherapy. Having read this study, I was ready to find the right course for me.

The truth is, curing your anxiety naturally is 100% possible. For more free advice and information Click Here
