Natural remedies and solutions for stress...?
I am rather stressed out at the moment with mood swings and negativity. It is short term things that will be sorted in time but any suggestions to make stress easier untill then would be great.
Thanks.

Please ignore the recommendation for kava kava as it has been ruled unsafe. I use rescue remedy and kalms tablets for a quick fix. I suffer from killer pms and find that intensive exercise such as a taerobics class is the most effective. Also try not to give in to chocolate cravings (ugh I've eaten mini eggs and maltesers all day!) because you feel sluggish and guilty afterwards. Try a lavender linen spray for your bedlinen and have a lush bubble bath (not too hot) with Radox in it-they do some delicious fragrances and they all relieve stress. if you have a partner get them to massage your back and shoulders with any type of massage oil-even almond oil will feel and smell lovely. If you are feeling really aggressive, digging the garden is helpful but you may ache afterwards. If you don't have a pet, offer to walk a neighbour's dog (preferably not a staffy or rottweiler) or visit a pet shop and study the fish tanks. It may sound weird, but it actually de-stresses you listening to the water. All these things don't cost much, if anything, so I hope I've given you some ideas. Hope you're feeling better soon:)
