Tips on How to Warm the Cold Feet

Monaco wedding jitters and tips for Charlene’s wedding to her prince
By Trudy Scott, CN (Certified Nutritionist)

For someone with wedding anxiety, nerves and jitters, here are some great calming tips:

• Drink less coffee. It’s probably best not to stop completely right before the wedding because of withdrawal headaches. And try a calming herbal tea like chamomile
• Get outside in the sunshine and do some exercise, which will raise serotonin levels and help with worry and anxiety
• Get a massage, meditate and/or do some yoga, which are all very relaxing. Studies have shown that yoga actually raises GABA levels and GABA is very calming
• And if none of these tips help, the amino acid GABA in the form of a sublingual supplement will have immediate relaxing results (if you are low in GABA)

I’m drawn to do this blog post because of the newest royal wedding: this weekend in Monaco, Charlene Wittstock is marrying her prince, Prince Albert II in a lavish 3 day ceremony! And of course there are always plenty of summer weddings.

I’m especially intrigued by this wedding and have been following their story for a few reasons:

• Charlene Wittstock, who is quite stunning, and a former national swimming champion, comes from South Africa, which is where I grew up!
• I just love the area around Monaco. In my late 20s while backpacking through Europe I spent some time nearby. And then I had an amazing climbing trip in the south of France a few years ago! And I’m a big romantic at heart so I wish them all the best!

Unfortunately earlier this week there were rumors that Charlene tried to skip town on a one-way flight to South Africa. If it is just wedding jitters and anxiety, the above tips should help. If there is more to it, and Charlene has a serious reason for wanting to back out, I say don’t marry your prince!
