Post No. 3,459 - A strange form of herbology

For a number of reasons, I've decided to start taking Valerian again - which I drank as a tea in my 20s. 

And I've noticed an odd thing:  just thinking about that, and looking at the options which are now available, has reminded my body and my periconscious/unconscious of what it was like to be under 30 (before my first Saturn return even) and a Valerian root tea drinker.  

Already, I am calmer, less anxious, and more confident and having less problem with executive dysfunction and flashbacks - I’m still going to get some form of the Valerian: this recreation of younger me has not undone decades of trauma, but it has been a good start ... and food for thought about memory and triggers for reliving events, and a possible psychic way to work with herbs. 



Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider: 

  • there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking” 
  • I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
