There are many natural substances and practices that can help you achieve calm and serenity. Below is a list of things you can try to bring some calm into your life.

DO NOT START ANY SUPPLEMENT, TREATMENT OR MEDICATION WITHOUT CONSULTING YOUR MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.

1- Chamomile.  This herb has been used for centuries to naturally induce feelings of calm and relaxation.It is a caffeine free herb that is filled with anti-oxidants. Research studies have also shown that it can help manage insomnia and help promote healthy sleeping habits.

2- Meditation. Mindfulness and focusing on positive is a necessary step in finding peace. Spending a few minutes of each day meditating and clearing your mind may help you stay calmer and feel more relaxed. Sitting in silence and mentally focusing on happy thoughts, spending time in nature or praying to a deity are great ways to meditate.

3- Essential Oils. There are hundreds of essential oil options, blends and remedies for just about every ailment. A holistic health practitioner or aromatherapist can help guide you to oils to improve your well-being. Essential oils can be applied in various different ways and some can even be taken internally for medicinal purposes.

(Do not ingest any essential oil without first checking with your physician, as some essential oils can interact with medications or certain conditions. Secondly, be sure you are using a bio-friendly, 100% therapeutic grade oil. Do not ingest a low quality oil, as they may be filled with other products and not 100% pure.)
