It’s the holiday season and that means there’s lots to do from preparing for holiday festivities to shopping for the perfect gifts for loved ones. Although, this can be one of the most wonderful times of the year, it can also be stressful. Fortunately, there are some non-habit forming, homeopathic options to help relieve the stress of the season without drowsy side effects. Some homeopathic medicines to keep on-hand are:

• Ignatia amara: If juggling a variety of holiday tasks has you feeling stressed and hypersensitive to even the slightest inconvenience (like someone cutting in front of you in line at the mall), try Ignatia amara.* Ignatia works well for people under stress who are exhibiting symptoms such as a headache characterized by a sharp pain in the head or lump in the throat.
• Argentum nitricum: Are you feeling apprehensive about hosting a holiday party and don’t feel like you have enough time to prepare? Try Argentum for relief.* Argentum helps relieve stress marked by a person feeling rushed, stomach pains or feeling as if a splinter is in one’s throat.
• Gelsemium sempervirens: If you’re flying to visit friends and loved ones and you’re feeling so nervous that your mind slows down, try Gelsemium for relief.* It also helps if you’re trembling or have a headache (with pain in the back of the head) from this kind of stress.
