Valerian Root

Valerian root has been used for centuries to enhance sleep and soothe anxiety. In fact, valerian was considered to have so many healing properties during medieval times, its common name was "All Heal." Today, the majority of valerian research has centered on its ability to aid in establishing healthy sleep patterns. Research has shown that, when taken consistently for at least 8 days to two weeks, study participants demonstrate significant improvement in the ability to fall asleep and reach deep sleep for maximum rest.5

Valerian's affect on anxiety is less emphasized but well-known over centuries of use to relieve nervousness, agitation and general restlessness. Current research on valerian's axiolytic (ability to relieve anxiety) properties is ongoing. However, the calming affect of valerian has been attested to since the days of the ancient Greek botanist Dioscorides.
Valerian Root
Passionflower Passionflower

As early as the 1840s, passionflower, an herb native to North America, was recognized for its calming effects. In 1898, Dr. John Uri Lloyd wrote, "It [passionflower] proves specifically useful in the insomnia of infants and old people. It gives sleep to those who are laboring under the effects of mental worry or from mental overwork." 6

Currently, passionflower continues to be used to relieve tension as well as to soothe restlessness that may lead to anxiety and sleeplessness.
Hops Flowers

Hops flowers have a long and varied history associated with healing. Today, hops are best known for its quality as a sleep aid, inducing a relaxing sleep without side effects. In fact, hops are often included in "sleep pillows" to contribute to relaxation in sleep. It is interesting to note that European herbalists recognize hops as a digestive aid and antibiotic, as well.
