The best natural cures for anxiety are different exercises. Anything that gets your heart rate going and boosts your metabolism will work wonders for reducing anxiety. Our brain chemistry is ‘designed’ with the assumption that we are going to be very active in our lives, as that is how we have evolved.
It is only recently that we have become largely inactive and sedentary, and our brain chemistry hasn’t caught up to this. Essentially, our bodies are still in ‘hunter and gatherer’ mode, and sitting all day at a desk can alone cause some imbalances.
If you have attempted all of these natural cures for anxiety and still suffer from it frequently, it’s a good idea to talk to a doctor about it because you may have an anxiety disorder. While not in itself serious, anxiety disorders can make life very difficult, and also increase your risk of developing stress related health conditions, such as cancer and heart disease. Additionally, many people develop harmful habits while trying to self-medicate for their anxiety.
