Herbal Stress Relief Ingredients

Go faster… work to deadlines, fit in extra over-time, play referee with the kids (in the middle of an argument), keep calm (in peak hour traffic and you are really late for a meeting), clean the house (as the in-laws are coming), remember to bring in the washing off the line, cook healthy meals (that everyone in the family likes… if not, sort out two different meals), weed the garden before the triffids reach the front door… juggle, rush, organise, balance – the busy mind repeats lists of jobs and problems… Smile and remember to keep calm, just before you scream!

In our fast-paced society, we pack as much into our days as possible trying to balance the demands of our families, work and living, which means prolonged pressure. This can result in becoming worn out, over-stimulated, overloaded, over-tired and wound up.

Balancing these demands with other physical stressors such as eating food with less nutrient value, too much sugar, allergies, chemical overload, stimulants such as caffeine, lack of exercise and lack of sleep can put immense pressure on our nervous system and bodies. Fatigue, tension, and increased time with stress and worrying are the body’s overload signals that we need to take steps to rest and restore. 

An important way to create a healthy nervous system is to try and reduce the side effects of stress.  Enjoy time out (listening to music, arts, and crafts, reading), sleep and eat well. Doing this daily will help our body to relax, unwind and rebalance its equilibrium.  If we can relax, get more sleep (or if we are lucky – go on a holiday) we can remove ourselves from the daily urgencies for a while and enjoy some well-deserved time-out.
