In the wellness category, I ask for anti-stress plants! Sure...
It is often said, they are a good natural remedy to feel better and, above all, in times of stress!
I list you, below, 10 plants that can help you on a daily basis...
As you know, there are times that are more difficult than others:exams, the autumn period, then winter...
Stress is increased tenfold during these periods.
Of course, you don't want to start drug treatments, and I understand you.
For my part, I took stock of the soothing and anti-stress plants.
Before using them, I of course ask my doctor who knows me, which one is best for me in each situation.
I also check with him if she has any contraindications with any ongoing treatments.
The plants that I am going to list below are to be used in infusions mainly.
It is necessary to infuse 10 to 15 minutes 1 teaspoon of the plant and drink one to three cups a day (I check each dosage).
Some plants may be less to your liking than others, be aware that almost all of them exist in capsules or drops.
These plants all have the particularity of calming tensions, fighting stress , but to varying degrees. They also have "bonus" benefits.
- L a chamomile :calming, soothing, it is moderately sedative. It also treats inflammation when used externally.
- Lemon balm :in addition to being soothing, it treats digestive disorders, it is a little more "anti-depressive" than chamomile.
- Flowering oats :it fights nervousness while being nutritious, it fights against insomnia.
- Linden :the one that children appreciate the most, without particular danger, which fights nervousness and headaches. It also helps fight fever, flu, colds.
- Catnip :also fights nervousness, but also stomach problems and digestive disorders.
- Skullcap :against nervousness, it is sedative.
- Passionflower :also fights against nervousness, while helping to find sleep.
- Rosemary :very useful in many cases, such as fatigue, anxiety, insomnia, but also digestive disorders.
- Lavender :This is my favorite. It fights against everything:nervousness, depression, insomnia, digestive disorders, and so many other things... In addition, it is invigorating!
- Valerian :undoubtedly the most sedative, to be taken with precaution.
Here is my list of 10 plants. It's up to you to find the one(s) that suit you best to relieve your little ailments.
I repeat:consult a plant specialist or a doctor , get informed , read books and magazines.
Plants are our friends, they must not become the cause of new "bobos". Be especially careful of the more sedating ones of them.
