Motherwort ~ Leonurus cardiaca ~ is an amazing herb for anxiety, heart palpitations, cardiac tonic, nervine and antispasmodic. The first time I started using Motherwort was for heart palpitations associated with menopause and anxiety. The overall affect is calming and grounding. It's quite bitter, which also makes it an effective carminative and digestive. It has a sedative nature, while not making you sleepy. Do not use when pregnant, as it also works as a uterine stimulant and emmenagogue.
