Herbal teas have been known for centuries to offer natural health benefits. They’re perfect for relaxation and wellbeing. But did you know that herbal teas can also help reduce symptoms of anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues? They help everyone differently, so finding the perfect tea that works for you could take some time. Here are seven stress-soothing teas to try the next time you’re feeling on edge:
Chamomile tea has long been used as a traditional folk remedy to reduce menstrual pain, treat diabetes, lower blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and help with sleep and relaxation. Research has shown that long term use of the tea significantly reduced moderate to severe symptoms of anxiety.
Loaded with antioxidants and known to be one of the healthiest beverages out there, green tea is high in L-theanine, an amino acid that can reduce anxiety. Green tea also helps with focus and brain function thanks to its caffeine content.
Used traditionally in the Americas and later in Europe as a calming herb for anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and hysteria, passionflower tea is still used today. The herbal tea has been linked to an improvement in other health issues such as stomach problems.
Peppermint tea is helpful for combating stress-inducing feelings such as anxiety, frustration, and fatigue. Research has also found that inhaling the scent of peppermint oil can help soothe anxiety.
Known to help heal skin care conditions like acne and burns, as well as treat aches and pains in the body, lavender tea is also known for its mood-stabilizing and sedative effects. But did you know that the drink is as effective as some medications used to relieve anxiety? According to a study, researchers found that silexan, an oral lavender capsule preparation, was as effective as lorazepam in adults with generalized anxiety disorder.
Lemon balm is widely used to treat anxiety and depression. It works by boosting GABA, a neurotransmitter that soothes stress. Researchers also found that a lemon balm supplement reduced symptoms of anxiety, stress, depression, and insomnia in people with a heart condition called angina.
Ashwagandha or winter cherry is an evergreen shrub that grows in India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. The herb is said to help combat stress, fatigue, and anxiety. According to a study, taking the root extract regularly significantly reduced stress levels over a 2-month span.
