Natural Anxiety Cures For You

1.    Almonds. Almonds are excellent anxiety cures because they contain magnesium that suppress adrenaline production and decrease heart rates (palpitations are one symptom of anxiety). You can soak 10 raw almonds overnight in water so you can peel off the skins the morning after. Then put almonds in a blender and mix with one cup of warm milk, a pinch of ginger and a pinch of nutmeg. This smoothie is best taken before bed time to help you relax.

2.    Onions and celery. Another type of anxiety cures you can find in your cupboard are onions and celery. Both contain large doses of potassium and folic acid, low levels of which can trigger nervousness. The vegetables can be eaten raw or cooked or integrated in your daily meals for a week or two.

3.    Orange and orange juice. The scent of a peeled orange is known to reduce anxiety. You can simmer orange peels in water and inhale the steam. The pulp can be ground to make orange juice sweetened with a teaspoon of honey and sprinkled with a pinch of nutmeg. The drink works in slowing down heart rate.

4.    Rosemary. One of the anxiety cures that have been used since the Middle Ages, rosemary is a versatile herb not only in the kitchen but also in the anxiety-reducing department. Prepare rosemary tea by adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried herb to a cup of boiling water. Steep the herb for 10 minutes and then drink. You can also burn a sprig to breathe its calming effects.

5.    Peaches. Peaches are tasty anxiety cures in that they are packed with natural sedatives to help you calm down. Instead of taking beta blockers that inhibit your nerve receptors and trick your brain into slowing down, peaches are natural, cheap and with no known side effects.

6.    Blueberries. Blueberries are another sweet anxiety cures in that they restore brain function and lift moods. They can be eaten plain or made into jams, or added to cereals, yogurts, muffins, pies and other pastries.

7.    Acai berries. In the same vein, acai berries are equally packed with phytonutrients that improve the mood and combat depression.

8.    Chocolate. Chocolates have long been touted as (delicious) anxiety cures. Dark chocolate, those that are not laden with fat and sugars, are rich in magnesium. Magnesium deficiency has always been associated with mood swings and low levels of energy, so be sure to eat chocolate with high cocoa content.

9.    Maca root. Low levels of magnesium result to sluggishness which could further aggravate anxiety. Unprocessed maca roots are excellent anxiety cures because they are rich in magnesium, potassium, calcium, iodine and iron.

Remember, this is one of the anxiety cures that we recommend, there are a lot more other cures that you can try if this one does not work for you.

This is not actually a single cure for anxiety, it is a combination of activities and methods. You can call all of these methods anxiety cures.

So, why does anxiety appear?

What causes it?

Anxiety is caused by our bodies that release a substance in larger amounts than normal and we get anxiety attacks. We all get anxious, but those that suffer from anxiety attacks need to find an anxiety cure.
First of all, you need to start with trying relaxation exercises. Taiji and QiGong are some of the best relaxation exercises available and I recommend them for anyone that is looking for a way to reduce anxiety attacks. You can do these exercises at home and they are really healthy for your body, helping your muscles and your mind to relax and to avoid getting over anxious again.

Lastly, I recommend introducing as many vegetables and fruits to your diet. If they re fresh and uncooked it is even better. Vegetable and fruits contain some substances that help us relax, so the more you eat, the more relaxed you will be.
