Passionflower is classified as a nervine and is used to soothe a frayed nervous system and ease an anxious and overactive mind. It promotes proper and restorative sleep and can help when restlessness, wakefulness, and interrupted sleep are the main concerns.

Studies suggest Passionflower may help manage anxiety symptoms and that its calming effects result from influencing the activity of neurotransmitters such as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which plays a role in relaxation.

Research suggests Passionflower might offer some relief from menopausal symptoms, such as anxiety and hot flashes. It’s common to see Passionflower combined with other calming herbs, such as California Poppy, Lemon Balm, Chamomile, Hops, and Skullcap.
