Can Herbs Cure Anxiety? (podcast)
On today’s podcast I explore whether or not herbs can make you better and how anxiety is always mind screwing you.
In this podcast I survey herbs like Valerian, St. John’s Wort, Lavender tea, and Marijuana.
There are of course tons more herbs we could talk about, but I picked these because they are easy to find and easy to find information on.
The whole idea behind this podcast was to give you a cursory introduction to these herbs – including their benefits and drawbacks.
On a side note, somebody recently asked me why I don’t make more podcast and the answer should be of some interest to you. The reason why I don’t produce more podcast is because if I don’t receive emailed topics and questions or if I have nothing new to say, nothing gets produced.
I hate when I read or listen to something that is complete crap, so I try to avoid producing garbage content that doesn’t help anyone. If on the other hand, I get contacted with an interesting question or topic, bam! Instant podcast.
See these things take time to put together and I refuse to waste your time or my own time with nonsensical drivel.
Note: Do you have a question you want explored on my next podcast? Email me at info@anxietyguru.net.

As of right now I am trying a herb for the very 1st time. Its called “Gaba” and its supposed to help relieve anxiety, stress, and help your nervous system. Its also considered a diet supplement to help you lose weight. I tried it for the past 2 days and I do feel a little more laid back but it also can be sorta heavy on the stomach (which is one of the little side effects). Not sure if I’m going to continue use them….only time will tell.
I do have something to add to this conversation. As someone who has recently acquired anxiety disorder, I am also a bit of a hypochondriac and avoid putting medicine in my body as I get a wave of panic the second I swallow that manifolds my overall terror. That being said, the medicine my doctor prescribed me won’t be getting much use. However, at my local health shop I found a product called ‘Kalms’ (in the UK) that is supposed to alleviate stress, irritability, anxiety, worry, etc. It is a mix of valerian root, hops and gentian root in a small pill form and you take 2 with a meal, as required, or three times a day. I’m not taking them quite so regularly but I do feel relieved at the thought that they are there as a back-up plan, and notably they do aid in calming down. They are in no way comparable to hard-core medicine, of course, but are a great remedy nonetheless.
