A tincture containing cultivated Valerian from an organic farm in the sierra foothills of California, combined with the wild Valerian of the high country of Colorado. It is a tincture of both root and leaf during prime gathering time.

Valerian is in a plant family mostly on its own and isn’t related to a lot of other plants. I love the pungent smell of the root, others compare it to sweet dirty socks (I know an interesting smell descriptor), I think it smells like an ancient apothecary on a rainy day.

Valerian has been known to aid in relaxation as a nervine, help with sleep issues as a sedative, aid in acute stress response and panic, be helpful topically for pain relief (thanks 7song for cueing me into this long ago!), and more.

Occasionally some people are stimulated by Valerian rather than sedated, its rare but possible, let me know if this happens to you.
