Today, scientists are increasingly raising the issue that a person is surrounded by a powerful information space in which the nervous system does not find rest. Accelerated pace of life, rapidity of events and constantly changing conditions lead to an increase in the cases of nervous system breakdown. If earlier the main occupations of people were physical work in the nature and games with neighbors and close people, today entertainment is limited to time spent on TVs, where they demonstrate shocking shots or viewing Internet resources, where a person again awaits a powerful information flow.
In this regard, people began to pay more attention to meditative pursuits - they strive to unite with nature, learn yoga practices and are looking for time to be alone with themselves outside of the aggressive environment.
Why is the sedative on herbs better than synthetic?
Sometimes the nervous system of a person turns out to be so tense that it is impossible to eliminate the symptoms of irritation, apathy and depression independently, in which case people turn to specialists. Before the doctors there is a choice of one of two ways - to assign to the patient antidepressants, tranquilizers or mild sedatives, or to prescribe a vegetable treatment based on soothing teas, herbal tablets and bathing.
Antidepressants, tranquilizers and synthetic sedatives have a lot of side effects, and some of them are addictive, and therefore frequent cases of failed treatment led doctors to think that herbs that soothe the nervous system are more acceptable in most cases.
