Albizzia julibrissin by Ray Sahelian, M.D.
Albizzia julibrissin (Mimosa), traditionally known in
China as the "herb of happiness," is one of the most valued Chinese botanicals
for supporting a healthy mood during periods of occasional anxiety and stress. Albizzia flowers and bark have been used for centuries to elevate the mood,
promote mental calmness, and support a peaceful night's sleep. See
Chinese herbs for a
list of herbs used in Chinese Medicine.
There are several supplements used for mood enhancement or have an
influence on happiness including SAM-e, 5-HTP, and
St Johns Wort.
