Description

I made this blend because I noticed that I wasn’t sleeping well, felt an underlying anxiousness, and couldn’t stop making lists and trying to fit “it” all in, and I would just worry about the state of everything.
It contains St. Johns Wort, Blue Vervain, Passionflower, and Skullcap.
St. Johns Wort (Hypericum Perforatum) is a nervine with a scope beyond depression and was traditionally used as a plant for the nervous system long before recent research explored its use for depression. St. John’s wort was used as a nervous system trophorestorative acting as a tonic to deeply balance and nourish the nervous system restoring health (LaLuzerne, 2013).  This beautiful herb brings light to many issues of the nervous system and is used by herbalists to help ease anxiety, tension, neuralgias, seasonal affective disorder, and indeed, mild to moderate depression. Beyond emotional support, St. John’s wort is also used to help relieve physical tension and pain.
Blue vervain (Verbena hastata) is commonly used for emotional and psychological well-being, especially for conditions relating to anxiety and feeling overwhelmed. It is a nervine, an herbal tonic that can be taken over a period of time to nourish the nervous system. It can also be taken as needed for acute anxiety, but its strength lies in its long-term nervous system affects.
Blue vervain can be helpful for people who feel perpetually stressed-out and may describe themselves as having frayed nerves or being tightly wound with an inability to relax, or who get anxious in uncontrollable situations.
Verbena hastata may also be helpful for people who have difficulty falling asleep due to active thoughts, rampant ideas, continual list-making while trying to fall asleep. A classic Blue vervain type of person who is an habitual list maker and only feel satisfied when they have crossed everything off their daily list (only to start a new one).
Passionflower (Passiflora Incarnate) is a plant with a wide variety of medicinal properties. Thought to be useful in treating everything from insomnia to asthma to narcotic withdrawal, it was originally used primarily to treat the conditions of “restlessness” and “hysteria,” which in the modern day translates to anxiety. Marketed as a sleep aid and mild sedative in the U.S. in the year 1978, it was taken off the market due to a lack of proof of its effectiveness. Since then, trials have been performed that seem to indicate that it is, in fact, a viable alternative to typical anti-anxiety meds, and passion flower is once again available without a prescription in most supplement stores, as well as online.

Skullcap is a natural herb that acts on your nervous system in a positive way. It is widely used for calming down people who are nervous, as a natural tranquilizer because of its ability to relax the nervous system. It’s a great remedy for stress and anxiety.  It also eases muscle spasms, muscle twitching and may help in ailments that involve involuntary limb movement, such as Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy.  Skullcap is also helpful in reducing tension and can be used to induce sleep. Skullcap is also believed to lower blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol.  It exhibits an anti-inflammatory effect and may be useful for joint pain and arthritis.

** Skullcap also has been shown to improve the blood flow to the brain and may make it a useful treatment for ADHD. Increasing oxygen(via blood flow) to the brain may help prevent strokes as well.

And has been very useful for treating withdrawal from drugs and alcohol, and those trying to quit smoking!

 I have been using this blend and had a few friends sample it. Here is what was shared with me:
There are “hot spot” times during the day that are hardest to not lose my shit as a mom. Bed time, getting ready for school. The edge was completely taken off. I didn’t go to bed feeling guilty for being snappy. I stopped trying to race the clock this morning. This is exactly what I needed!’
AND
I found it much easier to go to sleep – monkey mind not jumping all over the place 😴

  1. karine –

    I was introduced to lovely Aniiyah via a friend. She recommended we do try Calm Down for my anxious teen and myself. We take it when we have to find ourself in stressful situations, and this herbal blends does help so much in relieving stress. We are still anxious, but we barely feel anymore the bad physical symptoms related to stress (such as butterfly in the stomach, heart fluttering, all those bad physical sensations!). Amazing product!
