Linden Tea: Anxiety Relief. The sweet-smelling linden tea has long-since been used as a treatment for a variety of ailments such as insomnia and anxiety. Despite having started as a folk-remedy, it is now more widely used by people today. This may be a result of the delicate honey-like taste and the beneficial aid it can offer.
Flowers from 2 linden species (Tilia cordata and Tilia platyphyllos) were historically used to soothe nerves and treat health problems associated with anxiety. These flowers were steeped as a tea to relieve anxiety related to indigestion, irregular heartbeat, and vomiting. Today, linden is used in many cough and cold remedies. Active ingredients in linden help promote sweating, which may help treat people with fevers.
