Kava Curious
Afternoon everyone!
I stumbled across kava looking for an alternative to alcohol. I noticed I was starting to drink more since 2020 started and was not liking how much alcohol I was drinking on a weekly basis just to relax in the evening. I was drinking chamomile in the evenings, but wanted something to curb my anxiety and just make me fee happy like alcohol did without the horrendous side effects the next morning. To add to the double whammy I quit nicotine in 2012, but have been using alcohol as a replacement. 2020 just amplified this and I noticed it was starting to be a problem. I am a happy person when I drink and rarely have more than two drinks, but I do not want my kids growing up with that. So I started to search for a change and this is where discovered kava.
I served in Army from 2005-2009 and saw combat during that time. Alcohol has always been my outlet for my anxiety, stress, and back pain. Kava does all that without impairment, bad decisions, and hangovers the next morning. What is even better is my wife approves of it. After my second son is born she is wanting to try it. That is pretty big considering my wife is ALWAYS looking out for my health decisions and does not like anything that controls you. Kava does not do that.
I'm only a month into my kava journey. So far my choice is KWK Loa Waka and have some KWK Tongan Pouni Ono which will be here tomorrow. I can't wait to try that. I've been prepping with the traditional method as I have found that to be the least messiest and easiest way to prepare. I've been using 4 tablespoons of Loa Waka for the first batch, and do a second wash for maintenance. I'm loving this stuff.
Bula!
