Chamomile is an herb that has been used for centuries to support a sense of calm. In fact, one study found that those who consumed chamomile daily fell asleep 15 minutes faster and woke up 1/3 less during the night than the study controls (1)
Another well-known herb known for calming the nervous system is lavender. Known for its wonderful scent, lavender has been shown to be effective support for those with anxiety related conditions. (2)
