* [[Maca]] is an adaptogen. As such, it increases the body’s resistance to stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue.
* [[Green Tea]] : Theanine may help reduce the negative effects of stress.
* [[Mint]] Tea : If you started with green tea in the morning, you may want to end your day with mint tea as you unwind. Mint tea has relaxation properties.

* [[Kava]] is a remarkable remedy for stress, anxiety and [[insomnia]].
* [[schisandra]] is often used as an adaptogen (a class of herbs said to boost the body's resistance to stress of all kinds).
* Chamomile : A stressed out person could sometimes lie awake for hours at night because sleep just would not come. Difficulty in falling asleep is just one of the many symptoms of stress, and your body is telling it to you straight out. For this, drink chamomile tea before going to bed in order to help you fall asleep. This may help you deal with nausea, calm your restless nerves, soothe you and help you relax. When all these happen, your mind and your muscles will start to relax helping you enter a state where sleep comes so easily. Only then can you fall, and stay, asleep all through the night.
*Lavender : Just like chamomile, lavender can be used as a natural form of stress reliever because of its ability to soothe and relax a person. When you are stressed, nervous and anxious, drinking lavender tea can calm you and bring peace and quiet into a life ridden with stress.
*CoEnzyme Q10 : Stress can cause you to tire easily so you would need something to counteract this. CoEnzyme Q10 helps provide you with the energy that you need to get you through the day, no matter how stressful it is. It helps by boosting the production of ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, which is the source of energy of all cells in the body. Stress could rob you of energy, and CoEnzyme Q10 helps you deal with energy loss and prevent fatigue by providing you with sufficient energy your body requires.
*Zinc : Zinc supports your immune system. Remember that when you are way too stressed, your immune system becomes weak making you susceptible to almost any kind of illness. At a very stressful time in your life, you would want to keep your immune system healthy so that you don’t get sick easily.
*Exercise : Although the temptation to just stay in one place and probably curl up in bed is too great, force yourself to exercise. Exercise, especially when done outdoors, can trigger the release of endorphins, or what is commonly known as the happy hormone. Plus, the outdoor air and the sunshine are good for you.
*Meditation : In the midst of a very busy life, take time to meditate. Find a quiet corner and clear your mind of worries. Forget the demands of everyday life even for just a few minutes each day. Focus on your breathing. Take deep breaths. Enjoy the peace that solitude brings. You need this.
