Memory, cognition, anxiety, spasms, restlessness, insomnia, anti-inflammatory. Will let you know how the oils, salves, tea, lip balm turn out. Also , first frost is predicted for the weekend and that means I can dig Ashwaghanda roots...which I have used in bought capsules...also good for PD, but the fresh homegrown roots are supposed to be more potent. The cooler weather is sure great for digging and spreading the wood mulch. This has really been a hot summer. May God bless you.....and the wind be always at your back. Aunt Bean
