Despite their luxurious name, passion flowers are useful for a wide range of natural healing techniques. In fact, passion flowers are often used to make teas, liquid extracts and tinctures. Long grown throughout the Americas by the Aztecs and Incas, passion flowers have historically been used to treat insomnia, reduce anxiety, and eliminate inflammation caused by skin conditions. Studies have even shown evidence that passion flowers are as effective as synthetic medication for treating generalized anxiety disorders. Drinking a tea from passion flowers is also a good way to reduce menopausal symptoms and naturally lower your blood pressure and anxiety levels.
