Hi Jackie,
Not sure about anything herbal to take that helps but I always find some drops of lavender essential oil in a nice hot bath helps me: heating the muscles automatically calms them and the process of the body cooling down also relaxes your system (this is the same reason you give children cocoa before bed - as they cool down after drinking it, it makes them sleep!).
I also find camomile tea really soothing: great for relaxation and for soothing you.
Alternatively, massage is also a great way to go.
Hope that helps!

Also Bach's rescue remedy: its a mix of floral extracts and you just put a drop on your tongue to sooth anxiety. x

Thank you Danny I will give them a try x
i always find affirmations really good say 20 times in a calm manner, "i am in total control of my thoughts, i am in TOTAL control of my " sounds like mumbo jumbo but trust me it works...believe it when you say it:)
