I know a Lady who could really use some Motherwort. This lovely herb has a powerful anti-anxiety effect and really supports the whole system to become balanced and calm. I have heard from numerous sources that it is one of the most physically and mentally comforting Herbs out there. It is also used just before giving birth, to calm the mother, hence its name.
This lady I know suffers from acute anxiety. I say accute because it actually Caused her to be very sick one day. Unfortunately she is on a lot of medication for various Ailments. How many of her ailments are caused by her anxiety? How anxious does her ailments make her? These are questions that should be asked but not by me, by her. I can't do anything except sit and watch yet another lovely person battle with modern health problems which seem to get worse and not better.
Don't get me wrong - I am not against Modern Medicine. I respect doctors and the staff at hospitals who have the major responsibility of saving people's lives. But I wish we could have more synergy between natural and modern medicine. This lady I know also suffers from depression and mood swings.
Depression is a killer. Our moods directly influence our immune system. Don't forget that apparantly Louis Pasteur admitted on his deathbed that sickness was caused more by the conditions in our bodies being favourable to the sickness than from external influences. Motherwort Tea is best used fresh from a plant growing in your garden. Many people report lessened effects from store-bought tinctures and other forms. But this is obvious - all herbs are better if made from fresh herbs growing in your garden. For some reason herbs work better if they come from the same place you do.
I am sure that if she had a lovely cup of motherwort tea every second day, she would feel so much better. And isn't it a "coincidence" that this herb is excellent for heart problems too?
