1. Peppermint
Peppermint has been found to lower frustration and also boost alertness. Menthol, found in the plant, is commonly included in many bath products as it helps to relax the muscles. Had a stressful day? Why not chop some fresh peppermint into warm running water for a long soak. Don't forget your book.
2. Chamomile
Often used before bed, Chamomile has long been known for its anti-anxiety effects and sleep aid. Commonly taken as a tea, it can also help reduce inflammation. Brilliantly, too, you can also grow it in your own garden.
3. Lavender
Its calming scent and beautiful lilac hue is incredibly relaxing. Often used to help soothe agitated babies, the plant's oil is commonly prescribed to help in the treatment of anxiety and depression. If you don't have the garden space to grow these, they can easily be purchased from local farms or markets.
4. Jasmine

With petals this bright it's no surprise bunches of Gerbera can instantly calm the body (and brighten the room). They can also remove benzene from the air which is a chemical found in inks.
