his recipe for a tincture that he made for himself for when he gets a bout of

stress. I used it for awhile when I was working in a large retail store. After I

left that store, I found that I just didn't need it anymore.

be sealed airtight. Shake the mixture daily for 2 weeks. After the 2 weeks,

strain the mixture with cheese cloth or a tea strainer to remove everything but

the alcohol. You can even use the bottle that the alcohol came in.
