In a society that is bombarded by big pharmaceutical companies releasing new drugs on what seems to be a daily basis, it is easy to get caught up in the convenience that over-the-counter drugs offer. However, there is a very large movement that is geared towards natural remedies, therapies, techniques and cures that include essential oils, diet, supplements and non-traditional Western medicine approaches to many common and complex health issues. Perhaps one of the most common ailments that plagues Americans are headaches that are induced by stress and anxiety. There are numerous over-the-counter drugs that provide treatment for headaches but if you are one who is open to trying natural cures for headaches try this recipe for Lavender Lemonade.

1 cup raw honey

12 cups of water

Research has shown that lavender oil is beneficial for reducing anxiety and lowering heart rate, which both can be factors that contribute to headaches.

So before you reach for the easy option of over-the-counter drugs, give this simple lemonade recipe a try to help eliminate your stress and anxiety headaches.
