Banyan Botanicals Organic Tranquil Mind – Nervous System Support & Physical Relaxation Supplement – with Skullcap, Passionflower & Gotu Kola – Non-Drowsy Systemic Grounding – 90 Tablets – USDA Organic

My Ayurvedic practitioner recommended these pills for my general anxiety/stress. I was taking Olly Stress gummies which were okay but seemed to wear off quickly. Yesterday I took one of these in the afternoon and didn’t feel much different, besides the fact that I had trouble going to sleep. This morning I took 2 and MAN my mental state was incredibly balanced and focused all day! There were a barrage of events that happened today that normally would have sent me into a downward spiral of self-pity... but there was some kind of block: the herbs were in my brain b***h-slapping negative thoughts and proclaiming “NOT TODAY!!!” I was easily able to steer this thought train the opposite way into solution city. You know that movie Limitless? Yeah I felt like Bradley Cooper. I was caught off guard by how fast I was remembering events and details. There was no hesitation, no fear, no second-guessing. Possibly a weird, useless fact - I like the smell of these. They have an earthy, grounding scent. I will say though, I felt the moment it wore off. I started feeling generally anxious again. Two pills lasted me 12 hours. I was extremely productive and did some things with ease that I have been trying to push myself to do for months/years! I would buy these as gifts for people! Try them! Disclaimer: I wouldn’t say these ALONE did the trick for me. I’ve been consciously changing my entire lifestyle so I believe it’s a combination of diet, exercise, and good habits I’m building. I consider these pills to be akin to adding a wheatgrass shot to the smoothie of life.

A wonderful product for periodic anxiety . Gentle...takes the edge off and calms naturally. I've used it with my kids also. Very subtle and safe.

Especially helpful with an aggravated pitta! Excited to also gift a few bottles. Began taking two in the evening then, after about a week I added two in the mornings. I really only advise taking them in the morning if you wake up feeling extra stressed. If not extra stressed, they might put you to bed. It's also important to be mindful that these are not meant to be a solution to a problem, they provide the clarity so that you can tackle what it is that's bothering you with a clear mind state. So, in addition to lifestyle enhancement this is a wonderful supplement.

This is not for panic attacks. More suitable for head rushes. And even so it takes time to kick in. It is better if you take it in anticipation of some stresful circumstance. It works!! Just not as fast as some may want.

I have used several of the Banyan Botanicals Ayurvedic for several years. They were prescribed by an extremely well trained Ayurvedic practitioner who I have seen for the past several years. She trusts the products from this source and suggested I get them from this source. The products are safe and effective, based on my personal experience. The products have the same desired effect on me every time I use them which indicates excellent quality and quality control of products. Their service has been excellent. I highly recommend Banyan Botanicals and their products.

WARNİNG! WARNİNG! WARNİNG! I strongly urge people to think twice before using this product. I purchased “Banyan Tranquil Mind” on Amazon, which is marketed as a natural supplement. However, the fact that the full ingredient list is not clearly disclosed is extremely concerning. After taking it for just 3–4 days, I experienced severe and alarming side effects. I began perceiving people’s faces as distorted, which was very unsettling. I also developed sudden muscle pain throughout my body. The most frightening experiences happened during sleep — twice I woke up feeling like I had stopped breathing and genuinely thought I was dying. When I woke up, it took several minutes (around 3–4 minutes) to regain full control and connection between my mind and body. It was absolutely terrifying. For context, I have years of experience attending raves and experimenting with psychedelic substances, so I am not unfamiliar with altered states. What I experienced with this product was not comparable — it felt toxic and unnatural, like something my body could not accept. Another side effect was an intense “brain pressure” the next day, as if my head was going to explode. Based on my experience, I seriously question the safety of this product and what it actually contains. Please be extremely cautious before using it.

Too expensive

According to Ayurvedic medicine, I had a very over-dosed vata dosha: feeling anxious, fearful and spacey. There were reasons for it, sure, but that is not my normal way of reacting to adversity. I started out taking 1 tablet twice daily. Within a day or so, I felt much more, well, tranquil. I don't recall it making me sleepy at first. I was sleeping well already. The uncomfortable feelings returned an hour or so before the tablet was due so I knew I needed to take the preparation. After a few weeks, I noticed that I would forget the day time tablet without ill affect. If I did take it during the day, it made me sleepy. Now I take the night time tablet only occasionally. I like that my body knew when to 'ask' for the tablet and when it was not longer needed.
