Herb of the Week: Passion Flower

Contrary to the name, passionflower is a wonderfully calming and sedative herb—it comes from the same plant that brings us the passionfruit. The above ground parts of this climber can be made into a soothing tea that is great if you have trouble sleeping or a tendency towards too many thoughts at night. You will feel truly relaxed by indulging in it.

Passionflower is correctly indicated to soothe anxiety, asthma, nerve pain, premenstrual syndrome, restlessness and insomnia.

For some herbal relaxation you can’t go passed this little gem.
