About Skullcap Tincture: We continue to follow Skullcap in our garden beds as more people value Skullcap's diverse healing gifts. It prefers dabbled sun, lots of water and is also harvested along wild streams here in the mountains. This non-aromatic, mildly bitter-tasting mint family plant helps ground and soothe occasional tension and stress, ease the mind, and relax the body. A common and well-loved plant with a deep affinity for the human nervous system, Skullcap cools and welcomes real restoration and ease, brings balance to the heart and mind, and cultivates a feeling of harmony and peace. Often, stress and tension build in the body in a way that interrupts digestion, rest, and metabolic function. Skullcap helps to encourage flow and soften where we have energetic constrictions or feel restless. Skullcap can be used as desired in the moment or long-term for deeper support.
