We keep addressing 2020 as if the universe decidedly put a bunch of crap into our made-up calendar year. Not to be a downer, but it doesn’t work like that. Shit is continuing to hit the fan politically, internationally, health-wise—the list goes on—and that is having a serious toll on our mental health and stress levels.

When we’re super anxious, an onslaught of side effects occurs, from breakouts to full-blown panic attacks. Our immune defenses also fall when our cortisol surges, which tends to happen when we are experiencing moments of high stress or anxiety. Instead of hitting up a doc at the first sign of tension, try these all-natural, easily accessible soothers for a way to mellow out sans prescription.

GABA

GABA Capsules

Price: $10
Now Supplements

Gamma-aminobutyric acid, aka GABA, is a naturally occurring amino acid (meaning we make it) that operates as a neurotransmitter. It can block or inhibit brain signals, lowering intense activity throughout the nervous system.

Lemon balm

Calm Tabs

Price: $48
Mab & Stoke

Lemon balm is a green leafy herb that boosts our brain’s production of the neurotransmitter GABA, and even elevates mood. It contains a compound called rosmarinic acid, which is anti-inflammatory as well as having antidepressant-like effects. These little herbal tabs dissolve easily in warm, room temp, or cool water for a refreshing and tasty way to get lemon balm (and a load of other relaxing goodies) in your gullet, STAT.

Rhodiola

Brain Dust

Moon Juice

Rhodiola is a great herb for balancing mood and hormones, boosting memory, and even mitigating anxiety. It is said to stimulate happiness hormones in the brain, relieving anger and stress. In this Brain Dust formula, you get your dose of Rhodiola for a boost of fucused, alert calm.

Magnesium

Magnesium Oil

Price: $29
Geothermal Minerals

Topical application of magnesium is extremely effective in treating skin conditions, cramps, and muscle pain. Our skin absorbs everything we put on it, and will drink in this mineral rich, softening oil gratefully.

Calm

Price: $25
Natural Vitality

This vital mineral is crucial for all body functions but also plays a large role in helping us to relax. It affects the hypothalamus, which regulates the adrenals. When we are anxious, our cortisol levels skyrocket, causing inflammation and muscle pain, as well as extended stress. Magnesium helps to balance these cortisol spikes, physically relaxing our bodies.

Passionflower

Shop Now Shop Now Arrow Icon

You're a Knockout

Price: $35
Ora Organic

Passionflower is so relaxing, it may even help lull us to sleep. For those with anxiety issues that keep them up at night, a tincture or tea with passionflower can help naturally raise that magical GABA, lowering brain activity and winding us down.

Ashwagandha

Shop Now Shop Now Arrow Icon

Ashwagandha caps

Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, and by definition, adaptogens help our bodies manage stress better. Studies show that it helps to lower levels of cortisol, which we know is the main stress hormone that triggers our body into intense action, including increased heart rate.
