Incredibly Powerful Herbs To Bring Down Your Stress Level

Valerian

The valerian plant is can grow as tall as five feet high and has clusters of tiny pink or white flowers. But people don't use the flowers as an herbal medicine to reduce anxiety and treat insomnia -they use the root of the plant instead. This plant is a powerful sedative and is not suggested for use at times when attention is called for (driving, operating machinery, etc.) or for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It should never be taken with or shortly after consuming alcohol. Some research shows that constant use of valerian can cause a dependency and that users might develop withdrawal symptoms.
