Matt Kelly explains how plant medicines like valerian, chamomile, and lavender can calm you enough to actually do the work that recharges your system: meditation, prayer, centering, and exercise.
And one of the ways that you can kind of look at these plant medicines and herbs, whether it's, you know, valerian with a bigger punch or chamomile, very gentle, or lavender, kind of, I look at that as a middle of the road guy. They are there to help you not only feel better, feel more calm, but also then what that should do is facilitate you getting in there and doing some of the calming non-medicated work. So like, you know, centering or meditation or prayer, whatever it is that you do in that realm, sitting quietly. Exercise, you know, those things that help to recharge your system. If the plant medicines can calm you down enough so that you can deal with things and go do that, that's, that's win-win.
