You ask for Rescue Remedy.  Or for Bach's Rescue Remedy.  I believe that
any health food store, large or small, carries Rescue Remedy.  It is a
standard.

As for the alcohol, any bottled liquid needs a preservative to maintain
safety.  Usually alcohol is used.  I point out to my clients that if they
drank the whole (small) bottle they would be consuming a tablespoon of
alcohol (brandy is what the Bach company uses)and the recommended dose is 4
drops! Not to worry. The dropper is made so that when the rubber top is
squeezed 4 drops remain in the glass dropper. One doesn't have to be
counting drops.

Of course, if a mom is an alcoholic, she would do well to find the Rescue
Remedy in glycerine, even though I have read that it is less effective and
has a shorter shelf life.
