Kava Curious
Well, I made an unwise decision and spent $172 from my meager bank balance on instants of these that I shouldn't have spent. Mostly got it for work to ease anxiety there (I use it judiciously in that regard*) but today I had the day off so I went and had a bit more than normal. I mixed one tablespoon of Moi and one tablespoon of Mahakea in a little more than a cup of water and the impact is quite excellent. Kind of hard to explain. Obvious head rush, plus some body effects. Also I went on a walk right after ingesting it and I noticed things were a bit more clear, like I noticed stuff more. Like hey, there's an apple on that tree. That sort of thing. It was actually very similar to when you walk right after meditating. Your mind kind of clears and stuff becomes a bit crisper. I also ended my walk a little early becomes the "couchlock" effect kicked in and I just wanted to sit (so here I am).
I'd like to do this more but these cost a lot of money and two tablespoons at a time will make me run out quickly. I want to tell people about this stuff as well, and I've told a few, but I fear if it becomes too popular it will be overregulated/made illegal by the government. They always gotta ruin a good thing. I mean, once K@ goes (not that I'd touch that stuff), kava will go next I think.
*normally I do two half teaspoons -- one of each -- and that works. Yesterday I did two full teaspoons of each**. I was able to get my job done (well, I might add) but I was acting a bit goofier than normal. Luckily people know me as an oddball so it didn't seem "suspicious." I also got caffeinated and I get talkative when I drink caffeine, so people attributed to my nature to the caffeine, if anything. Then again I spoke to a bunch of people I've never spoken too, so thanks to this stuff I was more at ease. If only I could figure out how to be that way WITHOUT any assistance. Oh well.
**I find that if you use this stuff every single day, the impact of it seems to lessen. Hence I went up a little on my dosing. It's probably because there is a long half life on the stuff so one is still feeling the impact from the day before, so the new stuff you introduce doesn't lift you up from your normal, lower, base line.
