Healing Heart Palpitations & Anxiety Naturally: Herbs, Nervous System, & Hormones
Feeling Overwhelmed, Exhausted, and Struggling to Sleep Without Wanting Medications? This Is for You.
If you're a mom feeling completely drained mentally, physically, and emotionally, this might be the missing piece. You're exhausted. You can’t sleep. You're experiencing anxiety, heart palpitations, and you’re trying to avoid medication. You're not alone, and there is another way.
In this post, I’ll walk you through how moms are healing naturally, without numbing their symptoms or stuffing down their emotions. Inside The Present Momma, we use a root-cause strategy to help women feel like better versions of themselves. Because truthfully? You don’t go back to who you were. You grow. You evolve. And you become wiser, stronger, and more grounded.
How One Mom Found Relief: Elise's Story
Take my client Elise. She struggled for years with anxiety, insomnia, and intense PMS. After going through The Present Momma, she began to balance her hormones naturally and felt like an upgraded version of herself. Not just “herself again”—but someone stronger and more resilient.
Whether you're a brand-new mom, a mom of multiple, or someone who’s walked through loss or trauma, this is about honouring who you are now and healing from the inside out.
The 4-Step Root-Cause Healing Process We Use in The Present Momma
Let’s go over the exact four-step process we use in The Present Mama so you can start your healing journey, too. Grab a pen and paper. Your healthcare team may not be sharing these pieces with you, but they’re crucial.
Step 1: Replenish Your Nutrient Gaps
If you're struggling with exhaustion, anxiety, or insomnia, start by looking at your blood work. Many moms are unknowingly deficient in key nutrients like vitamin D, B vitamins, and iron, all of which affect energy, mood, and sleep.
Inside The Present Mama, we help you assess your labs and create a personalised food and supplement strategy based on your actual needs. We even explore the MTHFR gene, which can impact how your body absorbs nutrients and regulates sleep and hormones.
This isn’t about guessing; it’s about getting real data and using it to start feeling energised again.
Step 2: Regulate Your Nervous System and Release Stored Trauma
Your nervous system is holding onto more than you think. If you’ve experienced childhood trauma, a difficult birth, or a pregnancy loss, your body may still be carrying that stress. And it shows up through sleepless nights, anxiety, and even physical symptoms like heart palpitations.
In The Present Mama, we use gentle tools like
EFT tapping
Guided writing prompts
Vagus nerve exercises
These help release trauma from the body and calm the nervous system. Because if your nervous system is dysregulated, even helpful supplements can trigger unwanted reactions. Healing starts with calming your system first.
Step 3: Balance with Herbal Medicine & Homeopathy
Next, we support your healing using herbal medicine and homeopathic remedies. Whether you’re dealing with insomnia, anxiety, rage, or depression, we explore natural options that gently support your healing.
We also look at emotions stored in your organs, like anger in the liver or fear in the kidneys. Your body is always communicating with you, and when you understand those messages, you can start to heal on a much deeper level.
Step 4: Repair Your Gut for Long-Term Mental Health
Your gut is directly connected to your mental health. Imbalances like yeast overgrowth (common postpartum) or poor digestion can lead to symptoms like brain fog, bloating, constipation, and nutrient malabsorption.
In this final step, we work on:
Clearing candida and yeast
Balancing your microbiome
Supporting better nutrient absorption
When your gut heals, your whole system starts to function better, and your supplements finally begin to work.
This isn’t about a quick fix; it’s about lasting healing
This four-step strategy isn’t a band-aid. It’s a root-cause approach to help you feel calm, clear, and energised for the long haul. Whether you're a mom of one or many, not breastfeeding, and feeling like something is missing from your care, I invite you to take the next step.
