Dried Valerian Root – Deep Nervine Support for Sleep, Tension & Emotional Release

Valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) is a strong, earthy-smelling herb traditionally used to promote deep sleep, calm restlessness, and ease physical and emotional tension. As a powerful sedative nervine, it helps quiet the overactive mind and soothe tight muscles—making it ideal for insomnia, anxiety, and menstrual cramps.

Our dried valerian root is naturally cured and cut for easy use in teas, tinctures, or deep-relaxation blends.

Key Benefits:
– Supports deep, restorative sleep
– Eases nervous tension and anxiety
– Relieves muscle spasms and menstrual discomfort
– Traditionally used for emotional overwhelm and insomnia
– Pairs well with milder nervines like passion flower or lemon balm
