Stressed? Natural Remedies for Stress & Anxiety

A pandemic, global inflation, a war, job loss, global warming, fluctuating lifestyles, uncertain futures, I think it’s safe to say, we’re all stressed.

Don’t get me wrong, some stress is good, positive even. When you’re up late at night trying to meet that report deadline, or when you have that big fight with your partner. This type of stress is needed as it helps our bodies manage a ‘dangerous’ situation.

But if these anxious feelings or severe stress last for a much longer time, such as more than six months, or if these feelings affect your day-to-day life, you may have an anxiety disorder.
