There are a lot of herbs, minerals, and vitamins related to helping with Anxiety.  Many of them can be found in a good meal. Some may be more difficult to find and L-theanine is one of them.  This amino acid is found in black and green tea.  As a Bonus, I found how to combine this in a morning drink to give you a more focused day. I will share the Bonus Health Tip at the end of this article.



Today since most of us deal with stress and anxiety it is good to find out how to take better care of our health and body.  Trying to make our body’s work better may mean we need to change more than one part of our life.  Relaxation is one way to help our body heal. Exercise is also required, a good diet and more rest. You cannot simply take a pill like they advertise on TV to change your mood.  In fact, most of the drugs advertised to come with side effects that cause more damage than good. So buyer beware in the case of Pharmaceutical drugs. While they have their place a change in lifestyle may reduce the need.
You can get it in a pill, powder, or naturally in green or black tea. L-theanine is an amino acid. It is in GABA which promotes relaxation, and calms your anxiety and nerves. GABA is in the brain and helps you handle stress. So L-theanine affects the brain, which controls your mood, sleep, and emotion. L-theanine brings a balance to your chemicals allowing you to think clearer and rest better.
The feeling of calmness can take 30 to 40 minutes when taken at a dosage of at least 50mg. The feeling can last as long as 8 to 10 hours.

Let’s take a closer look at L–theanine.


Under stress, the body produces cortisol and corticosterone. You have probably seen the commercials about cortisol. Cortisol is called the stress hormone. Cortisol can help control blood sugar levels, regulate metabolism, help reduce inflammation, and assist with memory formulation. High levels can contribute to high weight gain, especially in the abdomen, face, and chest. The production of Cortisol affects the brain's ability to learn and think and lowers the ability to handle stress. L-theanine does not reduce Cortisol but does help you reduce the stress that causes it. 

You can reduce Cortisol by reducing stress, take a walk, get outside,  create a better sleep schedule, have your partner give you a massage, listen to some calming music, meditation, reading a book and so on.


There are many other herbs, and vitamins to consider, I wanted to give L–theanine special consideration.

And there are more Choices!: To help reduce anxiety naturally.

Ashwagandha has been used in the by Indians as a health tonic to calm anxiety, relevel stress  Ashwagandha, Brahmi (a.k.a. Bacopa Monnieri) is a mild sedative that supports the body during periods of emotional stress. An average dose is 900mg.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that the body converts into 5-HTP, and then to Serotonin. Serotonin is involved in mood, appetite, sleep and impulse control. Once the Serotonin neurotransmitter is made, the brain is able to convert it into melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone, at night.  5=HTP is easy to get and acts quickly.

Magnesium can be found in our diet, but if you do not get enough you could suffer from persistent stress, nervousness, inability to make quick decisions. Research now shows that as magnesium levels drop, stress levels increase.  You might consider taking 100 to 500mg once daily

Niacinamide, a type of vitamin B3, convert Tryptophans into 5-HTP, which can then be converted into Serotonin. Without B3, Tryptophan–5HTP conversion cannot take place. Symptoms you might see for B3 deficiency include irritability, lack of concentration, nervousness, no energy, restlessness, apathy. (just does not care about anything)


  • Vitamin A is antioxidant and helps manage anxiety symptoms. Doses average 10,000 IU once a day.
  • B-Complex which contains all the different B vitamins you need. B vitamins are important for the nervous system. Average doses 300mg to 500mg
  • Vitamin D helps your body absorb the other vitamins.
  • Vitamin E is used up quickly in times of stress. Causing another imbalance.
  • Fish Oil is high in omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to reduce anxiety.  I have found the Omega-3 from mussels instead of fish are far more effective.
  • Chamomile is a great herb you can grow. Great for many ailments such as hay fever, inflammation, muscle spasms, menstrual disorders, insomnia, ulcers, wounds, gastrointestinal disorders, rheumatic pain, and hemorrhoids. Essential oils of chamomile are used extensively in cosmetics and aromatherapy. I grow in it my garden and dry it every year for tea


Kava Kava, St. Johns Wart, and 5-HTP all seem to have similar help calming your feelings. Kava Kava also targets GABA like L–theanine. It helps the body to naturally manage stress.  Consider a dose around 250mg
Lavender has a soothing effect on people with stress.  It can be used in oils for the smell. Lavender affects the central nervous center to help with anxiety and depression.
Lemon balm, Mint is close to Lavender with sedative properties
Passion Flower as a natural remedy for anxiety, nervousness this works well for people that worry all the time and occasional sleeplessness. Studies show that Passion Flower extract significantly lowers nervous, panicky emotions and promotes a more tranquil frame of mind.

Rhodiola is a plant used for calming and as a nerve tonic for hundreds of years. Its roots are considered adaptogens, meaning they help your body adapt to stress when consumed. It is called the artic root or golden root and is being used to protect cells from damage, regulate heartbeat, and have the potential for improving learning and memory.

In short, your first offense for Anxiety is exercise, sleep, better nutrition, get healthy.  The last resort is chemical drugs, but in many cases they are necessary. 

Do not delay, seeking help, but make your own effort. Do your part.


HERE is the BONUS I told you about.  You will love this.

NATURALLY FEEL GOOD ALL DAY AND THINK CLEARLY

Combine a cup of coffee or two and 200mg L–theanine

How Caffeine and L–theanine work together



Drinking coffee does wake you up because of the caffeine, but in addition to an energy burst it also shrinks your blood vessels, causing blood pressure to rise, and your heart rate to increase. Reports indicate it may help you be more alert, think quicker. So combine that with L–theanine which counteracts the shrinking of blood vessels, and helps keep your body from panicking or getting anxious. Combined you do not have to worry about heart disease, damaged arteries, high blood pressure.  The combination improves performance at school or work, improves concentration, and mental creativeness. Be alert without anxiety, no more jitters, when the coffee wears off. 

Since GABA is also an amino acid that helps the brain think calmly, improving that happy feeling you can combine L–theanine, and GABA.



Warning – Vitamins can be harmful



Remember too many vitamins is also not good.  Your body will flush most of the extra ones out of your system but not all.  It is best to get your vitamins from your more nutritious meals. Cut out all sugar, cut out the alcohol, reduce carbs. Read the labels on your food.  If you cannot read the names do you really want to put them in your mouth?  What toxins are in the home you live in? Perfumes, hair sprays aerosols, paints, and more. 

Switch Gears… Your Physical Activities can be as important as what you put in your body.  Your Thoughts, your Activities.

Deep Breathing can be an Anxiety Killer 

It is a mental ability to slow your breathing and heart rate. Anxiety can cause you to feel dizzy because you are breathing so hard. So if you can control your breathing you can Kill Anxiety.  Nip it, Stop it, and control it. Controlled breathing can relax your mind and body, your racing mind and speeding heart.  You have to practice Deep Controlled breathing, it does not come naturally at first. But in time you will find it easy and enjoyable.
1.   Find a quiet comfortable place. Until you can feel your body's breathing slowing down you can put one of your hands on your chest and one on your stomach. Your stomach should move more than your chest when you breathe in deeply.
2.   Take a slow and regular breath in through your nose. Feel how your hands move, imagine your stomach and chest moving.  At first, count slowly as you breathe out, count to 20, then hold for 5 and very slowly breath out.  This is conscious breathing, controlled breathing. You can do this for 5 to 15 mins. Soon will be counting to 30 and will not need your hands to feel the movement.  Imagine the anxiety floating away. You truly can feel the anxiety and depression leaving. You will feel refreshed


Anxiety fills your Mind so you need to replace it. Relax by visualizing

You may call this “finding your happy place”.  Painting a mental picture of a place that makes you feel relaxed can actually calm your brain and body.
When you start to feel anxious, sit in a quiet and comfortable place. Think of your ideal place to relax. While it can be any place in the world, real or imaginary, it should be an image that you find very calming, happy, peaceful, and safe. Make sure it’s easy enough to think about so you can return to it in your mind when you feel anxious in the future. You can let this traveling of the mind grow deeper and deeper every time, imagine more small details, the way the wind feels, the heat of the sun, the sound of birds.
Now keep the picture and begin your deep breathing. Combine these and you feel like you are floating, heart rate slows down, breathing deeper and more controlled, blood pressure normalizes.  Come back to this same place every time you feel closed in, instead of screaming close your eyes and visit your place.

Relax your muscles

When you feel anxious, you might notice tension in your muscles. This muscle stress can make your anxiety more difficult to manage in the moment you’re experiencing it. Anxiety causes your muscled to tense and tense muscles will keep you from relaxing, sleeping, or making decisions.
To quickly relieve your muscle tension during moments of anxiety:
1.   Now find your place, start your breathing and when you are calm start focusing on your hand, tighten so you can really feel it, then relax.
2.   This tightening and relaxing helps you to know when those muscles are relaxed. Do this for your forearm, shoulders, neck forehead, buttocks, thighs, calves, feet, toes.

Yoga   

Yoga combines breathing techniques, meditation, and stretching through both moving and stationary postures. According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), yoga is one of the top 10 alternative practices used to treat a variety of disorders, including anxiety and depression.
When practiced regularly, it becomes easier to achieve the relaxed feeling you get from yoga into your daily life. Try signing up for a class or private lessons to help ensure you move through the poses correctly to avoid injury.

Acupuncture  

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese treatment for anxiety, depression, and other health conditions. During acupuncture, a practitioner sticks thin, sharp needles into the upper layers of skin at points of the body that correspond with different organs. It’s thought that acupuncture works by activating natural painkilling chemicals in the brain. For some people, it’s effective at eliminating or reducing anxiety.
Yoga combines breathing techniques, meditation, and stretching through both moving and stationary postures. According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), yoga is one of the top 10 alternative practices used to treat a variety of disorders, including anxiety and depression.
All in all I want you to you that you have a lot of alternatives, you do have some control.  You can take charge of your body and feelings.  All of this does not mean you will not need therapy or medication but it might help you find your happy spot more often.
