Boiron SEDALIA for Health Care

My story: I've never enjoyed being in front of people. I do not drink alcohol or take (use) psychotropics. No matter the books I've read or tricks I've employed in order to, merely 'get through,' public speaking, the anxiety I feel when 'all eyes on me' (or in anticipation) is not healthy. (Stress hormones and their effects, etc.)As much as I love yoga and want to offer it, it's still a different experience to be in the front of the class with 'all eyes on me' than practicing among a sea of other practitioners. Simply anticipating my first class, I was feeling that familiar anxiety.After a couple of classes of nervous sweating - this was not hot yoga! - too quiet of a voice (thanks to class feedback telling me), zero confidence, blanking out asana names and forgetting next movements and, let me stress, STRESS (the form being ANXIETY) itself during the class before and during, I felt like there had to be something. (I was only to teach twice a week; any more than that and I definitely wouldn't have taken the position, such was unpleasant and stress-inducing the feeling.)I have Valerian which I've taken occasionally when I don't mind being sedated and I'm feeling generally high-strung anxious. But I can't be sleepy in this situation and definitely don't need to feel sedated to the point of numbish. I've taken Valerian before travel days (stress of travel & plane restlessness) but again, did NOT need to feel that way as I'm trying to help a class of people with clarity of thought and movement. Plus, in me, Valerian causes dehydration and dry mouth (no good for speaking).When I discovered Boiron's Sedalia, I was hopeful. Though I hadn't much stock in homeopathy (being an herbal solution person myself), I was eager to try it after reading some reviews that sounded like it might work for me.First few times I dissolved those two tablets under my tongue, I led class with a newly discovered and surprising calmness and ease of mind.And although I thought Sedalia wonderful, the researcher in me also knows the power of placebo. Though I continued taking them, the curious neuroscience dabbler in me did wonder the mechanism. Irrespective, all was well and as my experience in yoga class-leading grew, so did my confidence.Couple months later, working out of town and having to rush to teach yoga after work, I forgot the Sedalia. Not realizing this until the next week when I was back to routine - I recalled my prior week of teaching. I had felt a bit of anxiety and had returned slightly into my metaphorical shell. Though I'd grown better at hiding it, I had remembered how my voice had gotten a little softer and recalled, now, why my heart rate had been a little higher (though, at the time I found it curious why 'the feelings' were back). And I only recalled the prior week realizing how calm I felt in leading the class when I was back to routine (which meant dissolving the tablets before class).These days I don't need it like I did when I first began teaching. I could continue without it and feel okay; not anxiety-free, but okay.But because I feel no side-effects, because it's inexpensive, and because I feel calmer (so much less anxious) in front of the class, I continue to purchase it every several months. I'm grateful to have discovered a not extreme solution so I can continue leading my yoga classes as comfortably as possible.

I work in the fast food industry and everyday I inched closer to wanting to kill not just myself but everyone around me :) The pressure of this job and my miserable life made me want to just jump out a moving car but now there's no need anymore when I have Sedalia!! So now evertime I'm reminded how much of a disappointing human being I am or how I have no friends at all or even the sounds of the nasty racist costumers at work, my mind is clear! Free from murderous thoughts, screams and self judgment. Perfect if you're an extremely depressed over-thinker who can't even remember their ABCs because their too busy thinking about your pathetic future! 😄👍 This is great stuff! Taste like candy! And saves lives! Many lives. Especially my bosses life and every human being who dared to look down on me. As without these pills their souls would be crying at my feet, begging for forgiveness and giving me a raise.

Okay so this product is weirdly amazing! I have only done well with controlled substances and was really weary about this product and have bought so many other products that did nothing. But I never give up. I have always wanted to get off my Klonopin but never have been able to. I took 2 tablets immediately and waited 10 minutes. Because of how severe my anxiety can be, I decided to take a 3rd one. After 5 minutes, my mind started to slow down, my thoughts stopped racing, I could feel my blood pressure decrease and I was happy and content, awake and energized. I wasn't angry and didn't feel out of control like I normally do. I'm ordering more of these right away. I don't want to risk running out. This is amazing!

If you're dealing with stress (and many of us are, right now), this product can be very helpful.I take it late in the day to start unwinding before bedtime. I won't pretend that it's as powerful as something like Xanax, but this won't put you to sleep or leave you feeling "drugged," either.Compared with a similar product, Stress Mints, this has been a better choice for me when I just want to take the edge off a stressful day.It doesn't make me drowsy, but it does help me relax enough to read or enjoy TV, and then feel ready to sleep soundly.

A friend of mine told me about this product because she suffers from anxiety. I bought it for my boyfriend because his anxiety sometimes blocks his ability to focus, concentrate, be creative (for work & hobbies) and be able to work through stress. He told me he feels zero side effects. Takes one in the morning after breakfast (in case of stomach upset) then "feels" calmer and more focused for the day. I realize everyone is different but when he took 2 pills he was a bit of a zombie. He wanted to relax too much and felt sleepy so one has been the correct dose for him. The price on here is a better value then our local drugstore.
