While it's Crucial to seek medical aid to rule out these serious conditions, the following herbs can Really help to calm palpitations. That's REGARDLESS of what is the cause.

A Western Herb that really helps smooth Heart palpitation is Motherwort(Leonorus Cardiacus). It's also a great mood elevator.
For a good mood with no Heart Palpitations: Take 20-30 drops 3 X day of Motherwort tincture.
Another concept in TCM is that dehydration can also cause Heart Palpitations. A simplistic way of understanding this is that when you are dehydrated, the water content in your whole body is less than adequate. This can affect over all blood volume. That refers to the water content in the blood.
TCM looks at this like a drying up of the blood, as it were. It's actually true in western terms as well. On a blood test this will often show up as, ironically a high hemaglobin. This is a measurement of the iron in the blood, which is only found in the reds blood cells. It's becoming more concentrated because the water in the blood is less. Blood should be two parts red blood cells to three parts water.
All this means is that there is less blood circulating in the body. TCM looks at this as a reason for palpitations in the otherwise normal heart as an attempt to get more blood. The heart says
-"I'll go faster, and thereby get more blood".
But, there's no getting around it palpitations are very scary and uncomfortable.
Of course, if palpitations occur, check with your Dr. as soon as possible. If all tests come out perfectly normal, then try some of the herbs suggersted if you want. Or at least make sure you are drinking enough.
