The Shy Doe tincture is based on Shi Wei Wen Dan Tang, a blend used in traditional Chinese medicine.
This is a traditional blend that was prepared for timid people. For people who begin to tremble due to something new, those who are afraid of it, for people with a lack of courage, for people who are always discouraged by their first failure. The recipe is a modification of the traditional Wen Dan Tang blend, which was created for ‘shy’ Dan (gall bladder). Shi Wei Wen Dan Tang is modified to strengthen Xin (heart) and Shen. A form of Tan (mucus congestion) or Shi (dampness) is present in most cases. However, this Tan (mucus) may not be apparent.
