All mental and physical activities are controlled or mediated by the brain and nervous system. Voluntary actions are initiated by the brain and the nerves are the ones that carry the information to other parts of the human body. In order for the nervous system to function normally, there must be an optimal chemical balance in the body. The balance of chemical substances in the body has a major influence on a person's mental and emotional health.
The medicinal plants that are most frequently used for the nervous system are those with a calming role that contribute to the removal of stress and tension. These include: chamomile, hops, hyssop, linden, mistletoe, goose sole, rosemary, St. John's wort, valerian, etc. Many of these have relaxing properties and can be used to relieve problems associated with stress, in particular.
