Can medicinal plants be used as a natural remedy for anxiety?

Medicinal plants can offer a useful natural remedy for stress when anxiety is mild to moderate. When chosen and dosed correctly, they help to ease tension, improve sleep and alleviate physical symptoms (such as palpitations, stomach cramps and a knot in the stomach), without the habit-forming effects of some conventional treatments. However, they are not a substitute for medical supervision in cases of severe anxiety, but form part of a holistic approach: a healthy lifestyle, self-awareness, and psychological support where needed.
