natural stress remedy for anxiety and overwhelm

Supercalm 101

Supercalm was designed for moments of intense anxiety, providing fast-acting relief in times of heightened stress.

We can do all of the self-soothing, mindfulness and affirmations but sometimes those moments of anxiety are so intense that you need some quick,  herbal support!

Supercalm is a classic blend of herbs for stress and anxiety, in a liquid form to quickly nudge the body into a state of calm. Liquid herbs are fast acting - as opposed to capsules or powders, they're the fastest way to absorb the active ingredients within each herb. 

Herbs that relax the nervous system in particular tend to work quickly, and the fast absorption rate of liquid herbs makes them an effective tool to support your mood (If you've ever tried Kava in the liquid form, you'll know the feels!). 

The herbs in Supercalm are mainly specific for those moments of stress and urgency, but taking this tincture daily will work to support the nervous system over time - reducing the impact of your daily stressors. 

Chamomile

Chamomile soothes anxiety and tension that manifests in the stomach and digestive tract.

It's an ideal herb for people who feel like they’re overly sensitive, or sensitive to emotional pain or discomfort. 

Chamomile has also been shown to inhibit inflammatory compounds within the body, like prostaglandins, making this herb a helpful aid for inflamed and irritated tissues (e.g. the digestive tract and skin). 

Kava

Kava combats occasional stress and acute anxiety, also helping to support balanced mood and emotions. Encouraging both physical and mental relaxation, kava calms us down without disrupting our mental or cognitive function. 

Unlike adaptogens that build up overtime to support our overall resilience, kava is best used for the quick relief of anxiety and nervous tension - making it the perfect herb to use in situations of acute stress. 

Passionflower

Passionflower is a calming herb for those who feel restless and overwhelmed, with an overactive mind and nervous system. Similarly to the way adaptogens work to build our resilience, passionflower feeds the nervous system.

Passionflower boosts GABA, our calming neurotransmitter, making it a soothing and supportive herb for those who feel overstimulated and highly strung. 

It’s also indicated for burnout and exhaustion, and it’s thought to enhance the connection to self. For those who are prone to burnout, you may often feel disconnected with yourself as a result of pure nervous exhaustion - passionflower might be the herb for you.
