The Fifteen Most Fabulous Herbal Sedatives : Kitchen Table Medicine
Do you ever just feel like you need to take a pill to take the edge off? Well a lot of us get extra stressed around the holiday season, and if you don’t want to take something that will totally knock you out, try a gentle relaxing cup of sedative tea instead of popping a pill. Now opinions may slightly differ amongst herbalists as to what the best herbal sedative is, but I think we can all agree that the best herb is the one that works best for the individual. Here are my top fifteen favorites for making in to herbal tea as they are widely available and not endangered species (to my current knowledge.) #3 Schisandra- Referred to as “Chinese Prozac” this herb is commonly unappreciated and underutilized in American herbal practice. #7 Lavender- Try adding lavender to your favorite baked good recipe. #9 St. #12 Valerian- Definitely one of the more potent herbal sedatives, valerian is also a great pain killer for those with chronic pain.
