Catnip (Nepeta cataria)—Aromatic, carminative, diaphoretic, nervine, and sedative properties. Catnip is an herb that is great for settling the stomach and calming your nerves. It can aid in supporting the nervous system by relieving anxiety, stress, and nervousness. It can also be helpful as a sleep aid.
