Fennel is a multipurpose herb that is useful for many conditions, including anxiety. It contains volatile oils with anxiolytic or anxiety-relieving effects that studies show are particularly effective in post-menopausal women. These oils calm nerves and ease symptoms of anxiety in the brain and body. There are several ways to ingest fennel. Fennel tea is available in many supermarkets, or you can make your own by brewing fennel seeds. Inhaling a few drops of fennel essential oil on a handkerchief throughout the day can also relieve anxiety.
