What would it be? I know this might be a tall order as kava is many things to many people. As an example, I could use any of "content," "serene," "floaty," or even the one that got closest... "insouciant"! But I settled on "unperturbed." Insouciant sounds I'm,e I don't care about things, but I...

There's something so soothing about making up a traditional kneaded batch of kava. At first I was annoyed that with all three washes I generally do it can take nearly half an hour. But now I love it. It's incredibly ritualistic. And now, when I'm back home after a long day of building houses I...

I'm wondering if anyone knows which kavalactones are responsible for the norepinephrine reuptake inhibitions which kava seems to show. I've recently been experimenting with kava but unfortunately the effects of the norepinephrine are causing enough anxiety to drown out any positive effects. I've...
