Your hands are clammy, you feel uneasy, you keep running to the washroom to wash your hands, you feel your heart beating faster, your whole body feels tense and the night before you couldn’t sleep.

We have all felt anxiety at sometime in our life from the first presentation at work, to standing up infront of a group, saying a speech at a friend’s wedding, starting a new career, trying something new and exciting like skydiving or even worrying about life stuff (money, family, health etc.).

In the midst of anxiety, things can be difficult and so uncomfortable that you can’t wait for these feelings to pass.  For people that suffer from an anxiety disorder such as post traumatic stress disorder, phobias, panic attacks and obesessive compulsive disorder it can be debilitating.  It can effect their work, social life, relationships, self esteem and self confidence.

The next time you start feeling anxiety coming on you can try deep breathing, doing a yoga class, getting more sleep, exercising or taking a bath.  If you haven’t got the time to do any of these, then here are some natural “chill pills” to try:
