3 Surprising Herbs for Stress

When people think about herbs for stress, they often reach for the usual recommendations. But some of the most supportive herbs aren't always the most obvious.

Here, I share three surprising herbs that I frequently think about for different types of stress and nervous system support.

► Milky oats for deep depletion and nervous system nourishment

► Lavender for anxiety and acute stress support

► Reishi for chronic, long-term stress and resilience

I also share an important lesson I've learned after many years of working with herbs: while herbs can be incredible allies, lasting resilience comes from understanding your unique constitution and changing your relationship to stress itself.

That's exactly why Rebecca Altman and I created the Building Resilience Course, which combines herbs, self-awareness, and practical tools for building resilience from the inside out.
