Peppermint does not contain salvia; salvia and peppermint are just related (the mint family).

traumgänger…you been smoking your mint leaves again?

:wink:

Ok, entirely and completely unrelated, but has anyone in the UK seen that Lipton Iced Tea advert? That’s funny.

I now take mint tea every night. I got it from Sainsbury’s in a section called specialist tea, and it’s called Twinings organic tea. Good stuff. And I can now take it without honey, which is good, coz my parents wish I would stop using so much honey…

Hehe, I drink mint tea several times a day! Great stuff!

Mine is either fresh spearmint tea from the garden (organic) or Clipper organic peppermint tea from tesco. Or both.

I have peppermint, I know this was probably asked before but I couldn’t find wear. Does peppermint tea do anything at all?

Ha! does it do anything?!

It is really relaxing, makes u feel mellow and chilled, its good for your digestive system etc etc. Good stuff

Yes, but what about dream stuff? Will it make you recall better (I actually remember 3 vivid dreams per night, but still…) Or will it increase the chance for a LD? :eek:

I dunno :confused:hrug:

Effects vary from person to person…

uhm… I tried camomill yesterday, my dad said it was the same as mint, but I didn’t remember squad :smile: maybe it’s because I go to bed at 6 am? :smile:

Yeah, he probably did, it tasted good though, and I slept like a baby on silk :smile: I asked my mum if we had some mint tea, and she said ofcourse :eh: so tomorrow I will try it for sure :smile:

God must be smiling at me, I found a full unused box of peppermint tea!! TIME TO DRINK MYSELF!! I hope I dont get drunk :smile: Happy Dreaming!

Well I went out and shopped for tea. Instead i bought some MINT LEAVES. I brewed some tea, meditated, and drank it. I wake up at 5:00 NO dream recall at all… I Guess ill try WBTB right now. I remember that I had a dream but I cant remember for the life of me what it was. My entire room smells of mint and its starting to get me sick. =/. Ill try again tommorow.

Hmm, similiar things happened to me about every time I tried some herb.
After calea and californian poppey I had no dream recall at all.
Must be something like expecting to much… the negative placebo… don´t know
With mint tea it wasn´t that way, probably since I didn´t thought of it as something really strong.And it tastes much better than calea, so it doesn´t make me feel nauseas :wink:

So, perhaps you should try to be more relaxed about it, just go to bed like you do everyday.Also, if you really hate mint tea by now I´d wait some time before trying it again

Guys, take back everything I said in the last post. I’ll clarify in a few minutes.

Long story short. I bought some mint leaves from the spice aisle of my supermarket. Made some tea from it, had my first lucid dream. Now thats progress and it only cost a buck as opposed to 4 bucks for less tea by some brand name.

This post Kinda reminds me of the Text based adventure “Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy” Your starting inventory includes:
Bathrobe,
Lint,
No Tea. :grin:

I am definitly drinking it again tonite. Talk about results :grin: :cool_laugh: :grin: :cool:

Well i just drank some Peppermint tea just now and I’m off to bed. Do you think honey will depress the effects as I took a spoonful to sweeten it

I wasn’t aware of this thread but today I went to a big supermarket
and I bought a packet of balm-mint tea (comes in sachets) - it’s got melissa written on it too and a percentage is vervaine. This tea is good for digestion also.

I took some and took an afternoon nap. Result was quite positive in the sense that I thought of lucid dreams BUT I forgot to do a reality check!
A missed opportunity. I couldn’t recall the dream either. I’ll drink another cup tonight before sleeping, hopefully I’ll do better…

I took another cup of balm-mint tea before sleeping. I couldn’t recall this night’s dreams so it seems it didn’t have the recall effect on me. It took me some time to get to sleep - 2 hours. Don’t know why this happens to me sometimes. Do you have any suggestions to how to sleep faster? :smile:

If you are trying to WILD when you first go to sleep, or trying to “catch” yourself falling asleep - it is almost impossible (at least, for me.) You just have to let your mind wander. You can’t try to fall asleep either. In fact, if you really want to fall asleep quickly, try to stay awake. :wink:
