Entheogens 2

Kanna (Sceletium tortusum)

Sceletium is known to decrease anxiety, elevate your mood and relieve you of stress and tension.

In intoxicating doses it can cause the user euphoria, initially with stimulation and later with sedation. Users also report increased personal insight, interpersonal ease and a meditative, grounded feeling without any perceptual dulling. Others have noted enhanced tactile and sexual response.

High doses produce distinct inebriation and stimulation often followed by sedation. The plant is not considered hallucinogenic, contrary to some literature on the subject, and no severe adverse effects have been documented.

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa)

Kratom is one of the most effective and pleasurable psychoactive herbs available. The effects typically last for a duration of 4 to 6 hours. When large doses are taken, some residual effects may linger for several hours longer.

In low doses it induces mild euphoria and reduces fatigue. Low doses do not interfere with most ordinary activities; however, one should not drive or perform other activities that require full attention. At strong doses the effects of Kratom are profoundly euphoric and immensely pleasurable. Typically, people describe the effects as dreamy, ecstatic, and blissful. Many people experience closed-eye visuals. Strong doses must only be used when one can devote several hours to the experience itself.

Over 25 alkaloids have been isolated from Kratom; the principle one being mitragynine, an indole alkaloid superficially resembling yohimbine (Found in Yohimbe bark). In addition to being used as a very pleasurable relaxant with profoundly euphoric effects, it is often marketed as legal opium and has been known to work very well with other various smokable herbs. To really experience the full bliss of the Kratom, lie down in a dimly lit room with your favourite music, close your eyes and drift away.
