Maybe I really am too tired, maybe my brew is not strong enough... but twice now I have fallen asleep.
Last night for instance- I drank my caapi, about 50-60mg, which I had felt good effects from when I first brewed it (on only 20 mg), and did feel it begin to shift my vision/focus/senses after about 20 min. So then I drank the viridis, about 25mg or so *yeah, I'm a little fuzzy on the amounts, all the sludge too. I brewed fresh viridis last night too, and combined it with some I had left over from the last batch which had been stored in the fridge.
Went to bed listening to some icaros, and bam. sleepy time. no dreams. no purga. nada. Same thing had happened last time I drank, this combo I brewed at home, lower amounts of each.
I am tired today, ravenous. Feel like I have been run over by a truck.
It almost seemed that I had more sensations with just caapi, when I first brewed it. Since every person's experience is different, I'll chalk it up to 'experience'.
So, Patience I guess.
I'll be going back to brazil later this month for a while, several months, and will see if I can hook up with my singer/guide and drink his brew again. I was hoping to be able to gain a little bit more familiarity with the landscape before returning to brasil, but maybe I am not supposed to do that now. Maybe I am supposed to be there. At least now my portugues is much better!
