Tranquility nootropics are a particularly useful class of nootropic compounds, that tone down the nervous system. The primarily discussed ones are:
- Ashwagandha
- Valerian Root
- L-Theanine
- Hops
- Lemon Balm
- Phenibut
- St John’s Wort
- Tulsi Holy Basil
There are more, but those are the most popular. Some of the best uses for Tranquility nootropics are:
- Sleep induction.
- Balancing out stimulatory nootropic compounds (like Oxiracetam, Aniracetam, or Modafinil).
- The most prominent use of tranquility nootropics is to combat anxiety.
- To modulate “mood” or state of being. Certain nootropic compounds like L-Theanine have the ability to balance out mood, through modifying neurotransmitters like GABA, Serotonin, and Dopamine.
- Refreshing mornings. When taking particular compounds, like Ashwagandha, at night time, people typically report refreshed mornings and more energy upon waking up.
And much more. To some people, they actually get nootropic benefits from tranquility nootropics. Meaning: they actually have brain performance improvements, like working memory, from taking these nootropics.
Me personally, I get a substantial working memory benefit from low dose Phenibut, with a dose range of 100-300MG. It’s almost like Noopept without the stimulation.
In this podcast, we’ll break down 3 primary reasons I take tranquility nootropics, and I’ll give some interesting stories on why they are so useful. Enjoy!!
