This is a post I meant to write about 5 months ago so forgive me for not sharing this with you sooner. I had to get this out so that it might help someone just as I was helped.
A little while ago my health had reached an all time low. My Chronic Fatigue had returned. I was suffering from depression, I had extreme anxiety and my health seemed to be getting worse and worse every day.
My anxiety had slowly been getting worse over the years. It started with driving. I started having panic attacks while driving on fast roads, so I quit driving. I then started verging on panic attacks when I was shopping at my local store for absolutely no reason. I felt dizzy and on edge like I was going to faint and just had to get out of the place. I had no reason to feel panicky when shopping so I knew it was more of a physical thing than a mental thing for me. The anxiety was getting so bad I barely wanted to leave the house. I had no idea what to do to improve my situation.
I don’t often share my faith on this blog, as my faith had also hit an all time low. I wasn’t seeing anybody, I was just in my house all the time, stopped going to church so I actually had forgotten that God existed at this point. My Dad called me on the phone and I told him how I was feeling. He said he was really worried about me and that he was going to pray for me.
After that I spoke to a couple of my friends who recommended I start taking Holy Basil which is extremely good for stress and anxiety. My body was at rock bottom and my stress levels were at an all time high trying to look after a baby and a toddler on my own when I was feeling so ill. So I ordered some Holy Basil and at the time I was taking a lot of different supplements and none of them had helped me at all, so I didn’t have high hopes for the holy basil.
I started taking 2 capsules in the morning and 2 capsules in the afternoon and immediately I felt like my anxiety had lifted. The difference was extremely noticeable. My husband couldn’t believe the change in me. I could go shopping and just felt normal again, and I actually started driving on fast roads again and didn’t feel panicky getting to busy parts of the road as I used to. Wow!
I spoke to my Dad the next week and told him that my anxiety had completely gone away, and he was so thankful to God. He said he’d been praying for me night and day that I would find something very specific that would help me, and not only that but something that I could share on my blog that would also help others. So how could I keep this information to myself after that? And notice the name, Holy Basil, definitely a helping hand from God if ever I saw one!
If you are suffering from anxiety I really hope that Holy Basil helps you in the same way that it helped me. I was using this brand. Click here to have a look.

I should also add that the Holy Basil did take away my anxiety but nothing else in my health improved. My energy levels were still at rock bottom and I was still pretty depressed about it. Which probably explains why it’s taken me this long to share this, as I wasn’t feeling too positive and struggling to get any blog posts written at all due to my low energy.
I continued to take the Holy Basil for a few months and recently I have discovered therapeutic grade essential oils. For me this was the missing piece of the puzzle. Within a week of consistently using essential oils, my health was unrecognisable, my energy was increasing, my depression was lifting, my digestion was improving. I actually went on holiday and had a really good time which I never would have had the energy to do previously. My health is still improving every day, and my confidence is growing so much. I’m actually feeling on top of the world!
It was quite nerve wracking for me to stop taking the Holy Basil as I was a bit worried my panic attacks would come back, but I felt confident in the essential oils that they can take over where Holy Basil left off. I now use Valor essential oil blend by Young Living which is great for anxiety and courage. I’ve not had any more issues with anxiety and I’m feeling more courageous every day. This stuff really works! Several of my friends are saying the same thing when they started using these essential oils.
I feel like essential oils are also an answer to my Dad’s prayer as I have found something that works for absolutely EVERYTHING health related and I’m now helping people as I was helped. It’s a great feeling. Sometimes diet isn’t enough to overcome your health challenges. Essential oils can bridge that gap.

I would love you to join my essential oils facebook group. This is where you can join in the fun and hear how essential oils are changing our lives. You can ask me any questions you like there. I am here to help!
Praise God for natural herbs and natural oils. He made everything we need on this earth to heal ourselves. We just need to find out how. If my friend hadn’t have suggested these things to me I would have never recovered, so now I’m suggesting them to you in the same way so I can give back all the blessings I’ve received.

Hi, I’m Katherine. I lost 56 pounds and recovered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by replacing meals with Green Thickies – my original smoothie concept.
Thank you so much for this post. I have panic disorder and my anxiety has reached an all time high recently. I have been heavily relying on my Xanax prescription through this episode, but I don’t want to be dependent on it forever. I’m extremely excited to try Holy Basil. I pray to God that I have the same positive outcome with it as you. Thanks again. God bless :)
I tried the link you provided to see the brand of Holy Basil you were using, but the link
is no longer functional.
Can you reply with the brand info or at least the strength and dosage of your two tablets twice a day?
Hi, it appears to be working again now at my end, but just in case, this is the brand: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0017O94QY/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0017O94QY&linkCode=as2&tag=greethic-20&linkId=F4N2N65PWMN5NS3N
Hi there! thank you so much for sharing ,
This is a life saver for me. I too am suffering from anxiety disorder. Its been extreme since July 2015 and I am scared to leave the house, I need always some trusted person to be with me , I have sleepless nights and chest tightness. … God heaven help me.
I read your blog on curing anxiety and I too ordered the bach remedies cherryplum, aspen, rockrose. It’s been a week now
What was the time taken for you to heal completely and is there anything else you did. Please help me
Thanks
Luv
Hi, I am Katherine’s friend and answering on behalf of her, so may come and alter this after I check with her. However, to my memory, it was less than 6 months from her being very low to her being the healthiest person I knew. I’d say it was less than 3 weeks for the changes to start being visible to her friends. I’ll ask her opinion though and get back to you if she says different. Cathy x
Thank you so much Cathy. I’ll be waiting .
How long did you take holy basil before going off of it? Did you have any side effects? Thank you for sharing your story!
Hello, I asked Katherine and she said she used Holy Basil for a few months, she cannot remember exactly how long but she didn’t get any side effects. Kind Regards Cathy
Hi can you tell us a little bit more about which oils you used, and how you use them? Whether by topically through a diffuser or whatever?
Hi Joel, you will probably find this post interesting, it is Katherine describing all the different ways she uses oils in a day. https://www.greenthickies.com/day-life-essential-oils/
Did the holy basil supplements that you took have the dried leaves inside or did they contain oil! Thanks!
Hello, it is the leaf supplement which is linked to in the post. Cathy x
