Stress and anxiety are among the most common—and least effectively treated—conditions in modern life. In this in-depth course, K.P. Khalsa presents a clinically grounded natural medicine approach to anxiety, insomnia, and nervous system imbalance, with a special focus on the strategic use of herbal tinctures. Students learn how anxiety manifests across the body, why digestion, dryness, sleep, and routine matter so deeply, and how to choose the right herbs, preparations, and doses for both short-term relief and long-term nervous system resilience.
This class is ideal for herbalists, integrative practitioners, and individuals seeking effective, non-pharmaceutical tools for calming the mind, improving sleep, and restoring nervous system balance.

Stress and anxiety are among the most widespread health concerns today, yet they are often treated as isolated mental conditions rather than whole-body imbalances. In this in-depth course, K.P. Khalsa presents a clinically grounded, natural medicine framework for understanding and addressing anxiety, insomnia, and nervous system dysregulation using traditional herbal therapeutics and lifestyle principles.
Rather than focusing on symptom suppression, this class explores how anxiety develops through interconnected patterns involving digestion, sleep, dryness, routine disruption, adrenal stress, and long-term nervous system depletion. Students learn why anxiety expresses differently from person to person, how short-term relief strategies differ from long-term rebuilding approaches, and how herbal medicine can be used safely, effectively, and strategically across both timelines.
A significant portion of the course focuses on tincture-based herbal medicine, including how tinctures are made, how quality and preparation influence effectiveness, and why dosing strategy is often more important than the herb itself. Khalsa distinguishes between fast-acting “effector” herbs used for acute anxiety or panic and deeper tonic and adaptogenic herbs that rebuild baseline resilience over time. Emphasis is placed on personalization, gradual titration, and avoiding dependency on sedative approaches.
Throughout the course, herbal strategies are integrated with foundational lifestyle considerations—such as warmth, nourishment, regularity, and restorative routines—to support sustainable nervous system balance. The result is a practical, adaptable framework that practitioners and individuals alike can apply confidently in real-world settings.
