Sacred Journey
Kava Curious
When I registered here, I was told that kava did not create tolerance. I did not believe this of course, because I have been told this about other substances before and it was never true in my experience however I must say I am very surprised at how quickly I have built up a tolerance to kava.
WHen I first started, one teaspoon of the 11 year waka was very strong for me and made it hard for me to walk properly. Now I can easily drink 3 tablesppons while at work. In fact, my tolerance has become so high that it is getting to be a problem in terms of costs. Of course when I only needed 1 tsp a day, kava was super cheap. Now I find myself needing 3 or 4 tbs to get a similar effect to what 1 tsp used to do.
I am just wondering what you folks have experienced regarding tolerance and is there any way to prevent it? Like maybe skipping days? I generally use kava 4-6 days a week. Some days I am just not in the mood and don't drink any.
