Mmmmmmmmmm, tumeric........it's what puts the yellow in mustard and curry powder...also known to the culinary artists as "poor man's saffron". Hehe, I love the stuff. |

When my dad went to Japan for a research presentation, he brought back a root called tumeric. In Okinawa where people have the greatest life expectancy, people mix this root in their tea and drink it all the time over there. I started using some after my dad brought it back and I've noticed that my dream imagery/vividness has greatly increased along with my REM periods and dream recall <--(greatly increased), It's possible to buy this herb in bulk at most grocery stores, it's an orange powdery ground root. It's relaxing and has an interesting effect on dreams, and is very healthy and mind clearing. check it out |

How do you make a tea out of it? |

"Ah, but therin lies the paradox." - Joseph_Stalin
to make the tea add about about half a teaspoon of the powder into hot water and mix it up, a lot of the powder falls to the bottom so you might want to mix it every once and awhile for more of it- try it out and talk to me... |

Interesting... I'd love it to work, of course. |

Quin custodiet custodes ipsos?

Speaking of LD inducing spices, I just had an LD last night and wanted to increase my lucidity in it. Some guy pulled out a bottle of what he said was "rosemary and thyme" and told me it would help. I ate it, and I became quite lucid (and also kinda high at the same time). |

it's incredibly bitter, you can put sugar in it if you like, but I like it bitter. It has an odd unique taste to it. Try it either way and see what you enjoy. I just swallow it with water sometimes, but thats intense. Its really really healthy and sharpens your mind. Check it out online. Check it out! |

The benefits of Tumeric may simply be in the color. Certain people may enjoy more yellow in their aura and so they respond favorably to tumeric. |

okay, i'm going to try all three: sweetened and unsweetened turmeric tea, and the turkey and mustard sandwich. Not all at once, you understand... |

I have tried Tumeric Tea only once and experinced positive results. Too bad was that the dream I had that night could have just been a good, clear, vivid dream occuring naturally, unrelated to the Tumeric. |

Luminous Spacious Dream Masters That Holographically Communicate
among other teachers taught me
not to overestimate the Value of our Concrete Knowledge;"Common sense"/Rationality,
for doing so would make us Blind for the unimaginable, unparalleled Capacity of and Wisdom contained within our Felt Knowledge;Subconscious Intuition.
Me neither, that's a really interesting idea. I have used it in plenty of dishes, but I never would have though to have it as tea. I will try this, as if it can help me dream better and be good for me it is worth it. I am absolutely desperate to end my dry spell, so I will try almost anything that won't cost me lots of money and isn't some weird drug I have to smoke (I doubt my parents would approve, as interesting as some of those herbs sound). |

"Of course it is happening in your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?"- Albus Dumbledore.
Sounds interesting. The grocery store down the street from me has a decent sized section of fresh herbs from local farms. I'll have to look for the tumeric and give it a shot. I'd love to end my dry spell soon. |
