Herbal Remedies For Stress And Exhaustion

Adaptogens

Adaptogen herbs help to bring the hormones and enzyme factors that control stress and immunity into balance. If you have symptoms of fatigue that are immune and/or stress related, these herbs can be powerfully helpful.

Adaptogens should not be used to increase resilience to stress as this will eventually lead to worse burnout and exacerbated stress symptoms.

Adaptogens should be used in combination with lifestyle changes.

The use of adaptogens cannot take away from the need to prioritize healthy self-care and stress maintenance.

Adatogens should be used to assist in finding balance, not on giving you the ability to continue an overworked, over-energized lifestyle).
