Hot, milky drinks are traditionally calming because of the tryptophan ( an amino acid ) they contain; add some cardamom seeds for one of the best quick mood-soothers around. Cardamom has been used for 2000 years in the Indian Ayurvedic medicine to promote equanimity, deep restful sleep, a relaxed, focused mind and also to soothe the hot rush of an anxiety attack. Crush the seeds and sprinkle over warm milk, adding a little Horlicks or Ovaltine if you like it.
