Adaptogens like passionflower powder have soothing properties that may help ease anxiety and stress that exacerbate nerve discomfort. Corydalis yanhusuo powder, long esteemed in Chinese medicine as an analgesic and sedative agent, completes this powerful combination.

Passionflower

Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is one of nature's most potent remedies for cultivating peace.
