Introduction

This month, we’re diving deep into the effects of stress on both physical and mental health, and sharing natural stress relief solutions to help you feel more grounded. Whether you're facing a jam-packed schedule or just feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, we’ve got you covered with tools, tips, and stress support supplements to ease your mind and body.

 

The Importance of Stress

Stress is something we all experience — it’s your body’s natural response to anything that feels overwhelming, uncertain, or demanding. A little bit of stress is totally normal (and sometimes even helpful!), but when it becomes chronic, it can impact your mood, energy, sleep, and overall well being. If you find yourself asking questions like: 

• Why do I feel mentally scattered all the time?
  
  

• What causes irritability and mood swings?
  
  

• How can I relax when I feel constantly stressed or anxious?
  
  

Yep — stress might be running the show.

That’s why finding natural ways to manage stress is so important. And while we love deep breathing and journaling as much as anyone, sometimes your body needs a little extra TLC. 

 

The Best Book That Might Have Ever Been Written (In Our Humble Opinion)

If you’ve spent any time on social media lately, you’ve probably come across Mel Robbins. Her latest book, Let Them, has transformed into a cultural movement, especially for those who are recovering people-pleasers or seeking more inner peace.

Her “Let Them Theory” is a powerful mindset shift, reminding us to stop trying to control how others perceive or treat us — and instead focus on protecting our peace. Trust us: this one’s worth the read.

 

Rewiring Your Brain for a Better Life

Have you heard of Dr. Joe Dispenza? He’s a globally recognized neuroscientist and author who teaches that by changing our thoughts, we can literally rewire our brains and live more intentionally. His teachings blend science and spirituality, showing how mindfulness and meditation can create new neural pathways, helping us break old patterns and build healthier habits.

As Dr. Joe says: “Your personality creates your personal reality.” Change your mind, and you change your life.

Calm Naturally

Life moves fast — from chaotic mornings to non-stop notifications. At Herbaland, we understand the importance of pressing pause and giving your mind and body the support they deserve. That’s why we created our Calm Naturally gummies — your go-to for natural stress support.

Our Calm Naturally gummies are a great option if you’re looking for natural stress relief supplements. Each gummy is packed with a thoughtful blend of magnesium, L-theanine, and lemon balm extract — three key ingredients for supporting your nervous system and helping you handle life’s stressors with more ease.

Calm Naturally is made with:

• Magnesium for stress – This essential mineral plays a huge role in regulating the nervous system and promotes muscle relaxation. It helps manage cortisol levels (your main stress hormone) and promotes a sense of calm from the inside out.
  

• L-theanine benefits – Naturally found in green tea, L-theanine helps boost alpha brain waves, which are associated with a calm, alert state. It’s perfect for easing a racing mind without feeling drowsy.
  

• Lemon balm for anxiety – This gentle, time-tested herb has been used for centuries to support mood, reduce stress, and encourage emotional balance.

When to Take Calm Naturally

Need a moment of calm? Here are a few great times to take your calm naturally:

• Before a big meeting
  

• After a long day
  

• During that mid-afternoon slump
  

• When you feel overwhelmed 

Customer Story: Revel

Two months ago, we met Revel Kunz — a mom, entrepreneur, and all-around lovely human being.

She came up to our booth at the wellness show and asked, with determination, when our Calm Naturally supplements would be back. We excitedly told her: late March or early April! That moment led to something more — a conversation where she shared her story with us.

Revel discovered Herbaland years ago at this very same show, shortly after being diagnosed with cancer. She had stopped by, picked up some Calm Naturally samples, and absolutely loved them.

When we went on hiatus, she tried other products — but nothing felt quite the same. We promised to send her a pack once the supplements returned… but then we thought, why stop there?

Last moth, we dropped by with a surprise: a year’s supply of her favourite Herbaland products. We got to sit down with her over tea and peanut butter cookies, and it was honestly the highlight of our week.

Our customers are our biggest cheerleaders. And moments like this remind us exactly why we do what we do 

Final Thoughts

Stress is a part of life — but staying stuck in it doesn’t have to be. With the right tools, habits, and a little support (both mental and nutritional), can help you manage your symptoms. 

Whether it’s through mindset-shifting reads like Let Them, neuroscience-backed insights from Dr. Joe Dispenza, or daily wellness rituals like taking your Calm Naturally gummies, small steps add up to big change.
