Running through a meadow helps. You will get all sorts of natural herbs all over your clothes, and be so relaxed after five or ten minute of leaping and prancing you will have forgotten all about your anxieties.

Try a Yahoo search for anxiety + "natural remedies" (OR "herbal remedies") and see what you get.

Stress/Anxiety Formula…it is all natural, and readily avialable. Also you could try the Anxiety/Nervousness formula. Either way, they work. check it out below

Anxiety is a multi-layered problem, and that means you need a multi-layered approach to handling it. Are you getting enough protein in your diet? Also, have you tried a good adrenal support. The B vitamins are good, but the best I've found is dessicated adrenal. You should be able to find it at a natural foods store. The homeopathic Rescue Remedy by Bach is also helpful. And I have to agree with another respondant, see if you can find an applied kinesiologist in your area. Also try looking for a professional kinesiology practitioner. They have different approaches, and both can help you find natural, safe, and effective ways to help you lower your anxiety. Good luck!

diet and exercise. That’s the only way. Your brain needs food to build neurotransmitters. Anxiety is a warning bell, telling you you’re not getting enough of the right foods.

I use the Bach Flower Remedy STRESS RELIEF spray. It travels well and when I need to chill, just one or two quick little spray to my tongue. I add a couple of deep breaths and I am good to go.

St Johns wort may help (pills or the horribly tasting tea), but it takes a long time before results can be felt.

Vitamin B12 is also good. But I am sure a good doctor can advise also other treatment then xanax, there are medicines around that are not addictive.

Certain kinds of meditation help, and in some serious cases also hypnosis.

First off, proper diet and a good exercise regime is the best thing. Exercise is a great way to work off the anxiety. Valerian like someone else said is good. I use Shaklee supplements and their Stress Relief Complex is good for anxiety. It contains 100mg L-theanine, 100mg ashwagandha root extract, 60mg beta sitosterol, and 100mg L-tyrosine. Anxiety is a difficult thing to beat. Figure out the source of the problem and try to find a way to solve or cope with it. Don't be afraid to try Xanax or Paxil for short periods of time- they can be very helpful while you figure out how to handle the situation causing the anxiety. Best of luck
