Herbal medicine has a long history, and holds a valuable place in the treatment of mental/emotional disorders such as anxiety and depression as well as the vast majority of health problem. Within the herbal kingdom there are many nervous system relaxants/ sedatives primarily used for their anti-anxiety effect: Valerian, kava kava, hops, passion flower, chamomile, and Linden blossom. It is believed that herbs, which contain volatile oils, can directly affect the
limbic system of the brain and induce a more relaxed state and St. John's wort is the best known of the anti-depressant herbs. I have used Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus Sentiocosus) to control stress.
