Linden has been used in European herbal medicine for centuries as a calming and heart-supportive herb. Traditional preparations of the flowers were employed to ease nervous tension, anxiety, and insomnia, and to support emotional balance during periods of grief or stress. It was also used as a mild diaphoretic to reduce fever, as a gentle antispasmodic for digestive and muscular tension, and as a soothing agent for dry or irritated respiratory conditions.
