How to take Motherwort

[atinygiraffe]

I have been having some major mood issues lately and becoming easily frustrated at my 8 month old. I was told to take Motherwort to help with my irritability. So, I went to my local herb shop and asked for Motherwort. She gave me loose leaf, I figured I was just supposed to make tea. I tried it, and DAMN it is NASTY!
How is Motherwort usually taken? Is tea the only way to take it? Anyone know how to make tincture?

I've only ever bought tincture -- Susun Weed recommends tincture. If you wanted to persist with the tea you could add mint to it; that sometimes helps with taste issues.

Have you tried Rescue Remedy or EFT? Nursing otherwise I'd write more. I actually thiink that the FES Five-Flower remedy is more potent than Rescue Remedy, but RR is available at the health food store.

Since you need motherwort soon, I would buy the tincture instead of make it.
