Anxiety is one of the most common reasons people look for a plant-based alternative to pharmaceutical options. Three of our botanicals have real, focused traditional and research use here — each works a little differently, so here's how to think about which one fits.

Kava — the most studied of the three

Kava is traditionally used for reducing anxiety and stress. Studies have shown kava can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety without the sedative effects commonly associated with prescription medications, largely due to kavalactones interacting with the brain's limbic system to promote relaxation. It's a mood stabilizer, body calmer, and mild sedative, and works on non-opiate pathways — not addictive. Our Ease Kava Gummies are grown and made on the Big Island of Hawai'i, using only the root (waka), which is the safest part of the plant to use.

Blue Lotus — for anxiety intertwined with mood

Blue Lotus is traditionally used to balance emotions, promote emotional stability, and alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, alongside general relaxation and stress relief. Our Dream Blue Lotus Gummies use pure Sri Lankan Blue Lotus extract.

Kanna — for anxiety with a mood-and-connection angle

Kanna naturally increases feel-good chemicals like serotonin and dopamine, offering a gentle mood boost alongside anxiety relief for people whose anxiety shows up as low mood or disconnection. Our Heart Kanna Gummies combine Kanna with Rose, Pomegranate, and calming Valerian root.

Or start with the blend

If you'd rather not choose, our new Freeze Dried Tranquility Blend combines Kava, Kanna, and Bobinsana in one product — built specifically to relax, wind down, and rest.

A note on these claims

These are traditional and herbal-medicine uses, not medical claims — our gummies are dietary supplements, not drugs, and haven't been evaluated by the FDA to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. If you're managing a diagnosed anxiety disorder or taking medication for it, talk to a healthcare provider before adding these, especially since Kava and Caapi-adjacent botanicals can interact with certain medications.
