Healing Anxiety With Herbs: The Natural Way to Beat Anxiety depression and Insomnia - Softcover

Anxiety can lead to depression, insomnia, difficulty concentrating and making decisions, eating problems, and chronic aches and pains. It can also be the root cause of asthma, colitis, heart attack and even cancer.

Every year, millions of people take tranquillizers and sleeping pills to try to relieve the epidemic of anxiety and insomnia. Yet these synthetic sedatives have serious side effects including possible addiction. Herbs are often as effective as synthetic drugs. They also have far fewer side-effects and are non-addictive.

Herbal medicines are revolutionizing the treatment of anxiety. This easy to read guide provides a safe, natural and medically-proven programme for recovery. It recommends a wide range of powerful herbs including:
· St John’s Wort (hypericum) – the highly topical ‘natural prozac’
· Kava – the natural tranquillizer, a herb native to South Pacific Islands
· Valerian – a natural sleeping remedy that is non-addictive and without side-effects.

Alternative medicine pioneer, Dr Harold Bloomfield also explains the causes of anxiety; lifestyle changes to minimize stress, and exercises to help you evaluate your own level of anxiety.
