Natural Anxiety Remedies

So far on NaturalAnxietyRemedies.org we’ve spoken about lifestyle, diet and exercise as natural anxiety cures, but never the spiritual side of healing. Many people will argue that it doesn’t exist and spiritual healing is ‘all in the brain’, yet part of how it works is through your level of belief in the methods used.

Jade promotes courage, compassion, balanced emotions and generosity

There are many different ’spiritual’ practices recommended for those suffering from anxiety, from meditation and crystal therapy to Reiki and Chakra healing. One of the easiest and most inexpensive natural anxiety cures is using crystals. Each crystal or ’stone’ has its own properties, unique to all the rest, due to the way that it resonates (vibrates). Every rock on earth vibrates at some frequency, due to the energy trapped within it, yet some give off this energy and can promote healing, positive feelings. Black tourmaline and hematite are ideal for helping self esteem and giving courage, whereas rose quartz helps self esteem whilst promoting calm, too. Visit a website such as Crystal Cavern to find each stone and find out what its properties are.

Reiki (which means ‘Natural Life Energy’ in Japanese) is a spiritual healing practice that originated in Japan in the 1920s. It involves visiting a trained Reiki specialist, lying down and having their hands placed on your body. They then send healing energy to you, usually for just over an hour, and patients often feel benefits straight after a session. It is possible to learn Reiki yourself, but it’s advised you do this through classes, given by a professional. Unlike many natural anxiety cures Reiki doesn’t just treat one symptom – so if you have it don’t expect to sit with someone’s hands on your head while they treat your ‘mental anxiety’. Instead they treat each person wholly, so you may find other ailments are helped at the same time.

LaStone therapy uses some of the basic concepts found in Chakra healing

Lastly, Chakra healing uses many of the ideas, methods and concepts that you might have come across before in other natural anxiety cures such as meditation and crystals. Chakra healers believe that each person has a number of Chakras within the body, for example the sixth Chakra ‘Ajna’, which lies on the brow, between the eyes and promotes clear thinking amongst many other things. It’s thought that if one or more Chakras become misaligned then the mind and body will become unbalanced and we experience negative symptoms. This is when Chakra healing should take place, through placing relevant stones on the Chakra points and meditating to bring them back into focus.

Some of the natural anxiety cures mentioned in this post might seem a bit ‘far out’, but for anyone serious about treating their condition naturally it’s certainly a path you should at least try, even if it doesn’t work out in the end. Many of these methods work through the power of the mind alone, which is where anxiety disorders originate, and where they are eliminated too.
