FRESH SALVIA LEAF GIVEAWAY
I'd like to try something to kick off a new idea: Sending fresh Salvia.
I have several ten-gram, test bags of fresh Salvia leaves available to send out for FREE as an experiment to see how they hold up in the US Mail, and what people think of the chewing experience.
Since - due to the usual requirement of having to be growing the plant in order to use fresh leaf - it is exceedingly rare to find this method of ingestion--the chewing of leaves ("mastication," while being the original way and, I believe, correct way to use this plant), I would think someone out there might want to try it?
Salvia will stay fresh in the fridge for up to a month.
So, the first four people who comment with, "I want to chew fresh Salvia," will receive one bag each, with instructions.
Any adult from a state that allows use is eligible (with an emailed copy of a state license or ID).
I have found this method of chewing, holding in my mouth, under my tongue and around my gums for about 12 minutes, without swallowing the juice, to be very effective. When you start to feel the effects, you spit it or swallow (since it is perfectly safe to ingest) it all. It is a longer and more pleasurable experience than smoking (about 50 minutes--your experience may differ).*
I have found many insights using Salvia in this way and want you to explore it as well!
Whomever ends up trying this can help the project move along by writing out her/his report of the experience and submitting it here.
If this works well I may offer to sell these bags at ten dollars each, including shipping to the wider public.
Therefore if you are one of the first four people, I will contact you by Messenger for your mailing address, and send a bag to you.
So leave a comment and let's see how this goes!
*Be warned Salvia tastes incredibly, even horribly, bitter. I enjoy withstanding the taste in order to explore what the Sheppardess has to show me. Maybe you can too. 🤗
