Tincture: A solution of alcohol and plant material. To create a tincture, you take the plant whos properties you wish to extract, put it in a container, and just cover it with a clear alcohol (needs to be at least 20% ethanol). Stir and let it sit for s few days to pull out as much as possible. Strain out the plant matter and the liquid you're left with is your tincture. If you want it more concentrated, you could leave it out without a lid, letting the alcohol evaporate naturally, or you could attempt a distillation, but you should do research for that to see what temperature the chemical you want evaporates at (this will tell you which solution will be your concentrated tincture, alcohol evaporates at a lower temperature than water).
Poultice: A mash of plant matter. This is simple and there are 2 ways to do this: dirty and clean. The dirty way is to chew the plant matter. An example of this is you're out hiking, you have an accident (non-life-threatening), and you're bleeding. You find some plantain near you, so you grab it. You chew the leaves until they're mush and place this over the wound. The clean way would have you grab a mortar, place the plant material in it, and mash it with the pestel, making sure to add water if it's too dry (you want it almost like a paste).
Salve: Similar to a poultice, but mixed with oil and something to set it. What you're after in the poultice is the juice that comes out of the plants more than anything, but having bits of the plant in the salve can be fine too, and salves can also be made with resin. You would mix the medicinal ingredient in with oil (you'll have to play with the ratio based on the plant and oil being used) and then melt in something like beeswax (start with a low wax to solution ratio first, add more wax if it doesn't set enough, too much wax will make the salve too hard).
Tea: Water steeped with plant material. This is a very simple one to understand. Doesn't even have to be plants even, turkey tail mushroom is a known medicinal tea ingredient (the jury is still out on its medicinal benefits, it's being looked into). The longer you steep, the more you leech (and the worse it may taste). You drink it right after steeping, it does not preserve itself.
None of these are going to make you a panacea, they're more than likely just going to help with more minor issues. For serious issues, seek more in depth medical help - scientific herbalism can only go so far. There's also a lot of science stuff I didn't include here about how certain chemicals might interact in the various methods, things like that very much depend on what's being used and what's desired. Make sure you do research on something before you try it, see what information is already out there about it. Contribute to the growth of open medical science by testing things, but be safe when testing - don't just ingest literal poison to see if it will cure cancer or something.

Simple Tips:
Make chamomile tea with moon water/gem elixir and drink before bed
Keep your bedding and pillows washed and clean
Cleanse your room before going to sleep
Take a bath or shower before bed to relax and cleanse yourself
Keep a bowl of salt near your bed
Sleep with crystals beneath your pillow or near your bed
Fill a bag or sachet with herbs to keep under your pillow or hang above your bed
Sleep with a stuffed animal or blanket that you feel comforted by
Try not to snack too close to bed time, indigestion can lead to nightmares
Stretch before bed
Do breathing exercises or meditate before bedtime
Crack your window slightly to bring in fresh air while you sleep
Avoid nicotine, alcohol or caffeine too close to bed
Listening to calming ambient sounds can help
Dealing with Nightmares
Nightmares can be very stressful and terrifying. Everyone has them and sometimes they are caused by your own subconscious thoughts and worries.
Keep a notebook or dream journal with a pen near your bed. When you wake up from a nightmare, even if you are distressed, try to write down your emotions, thoughts and what you can remember about the nightmare down.
Come morning research the symbolism of the things that happened and appeared in your nightmare. Also consider what they may mean personally to you. Do you have any memories or experiences that relate to what happened in your dream?
Look it all over after you finished your research. What picture does it paint? Is something from your waking life affecting you? Stresses? Arguments? Relationship problems? If so perhaps it is time you try to resolve these problems.
After waking up from a nightmare you can still feel rather distressed.
Take deep breaths, as scary and distressing as it is, it is still just a dream
Get some water
Stretch or walk around if you can, get the jitters and shakes out
Cleanse your room if you can, spray some moon water about or bring in some salt, help remove the negativity you just felt
Read a book, it can help relax you again and make you feel sleepy, especially after such a stressful experience
After you wrote down what you remember from your nightmare, don’t dwell on it right now. You can worry about it later, for now find other things to do if you are not interested in going back to sleep
Listen to calming music or sounds
Watch calming images or videos if needed such as rain falling, ocean waves, changing clouds, looping gifs, etc
If someone is around and there to listen, you can talk it out with them. It can really help calm you
Drink some chamomile tea, it really helps
Wash your face
Cuddle, pet or speak with a pet
Hold your favorite stuffed animal or blanket for comfort
Make a crystal grid of calming stones and negativity removal stones
If you do not plan on going back to sleep or if it is already morning, take a shower or bath
If you do not plan on going back to sleep, light some white and black candles to cleanse yourself and space of the negative energy brought by the nightmare. Do this with caution, make sure you are not too tired to do this. Fires are not fun or safe
