This is a new product, which I think is sold only here in Quebec. It is a relaxing drink. It doesn't taste very good, but it is relaxing. I took it in my first week of quitting daily cannabis use to help me sleep, with barely noticeable effects. In the last week I've started to dream again. But in the last 3 days, I drank a can right before going to bed (first day cause I was really tired and exhausted and it is said to improve sleep quality and length) and had very vivid, long, cool but at the same time fucked up dreams. I find it really interesting. I also noticed that the day after it takes me a lot more time before I completely wake up, have less energy, and am more irritable.

What do you think? Do you think there should be a problem in taking this regularly? Like once or twice a week?

What is probably doing it is the valerain (not sure about the hops, I've never tried it by itself).

Valerian root is very relaxing and it's in a lot of sleepy tea concoctions.

In my experience if you drink it everyday valerian isn't as effective, if you save it for every few days or once a week it's fine.

You can go out and get yourself some valerian root for cheap, there's lots of cool headshops and herb shops in quebec... put a tbsp or so of it in hot water and make your own tea as well! I also find mugwort very relaxing in a tea from time to time as well

yeah valerian is good for sleep, the Passiflora is calming too i think

 

[st.bot.32]

found it is effective for a couple of weeks, then it has the opposite effect

Yeah also I find I have a limited window of opportunity in which to sleep after I have it. If I'm not out in 30 mins to an hour, I'll be up for a looong time.

Sound like the same thing I have when smoking mj
except for the more irritable part

BTW: I love the "contains a one week vacation" add
They should make an add like that for mushrooms, only then contains a 4 week vacation, a wedding, a funeral, a visionquest and a visit to your psychiatrist

If you wait it also says it contains a relaxation session and an acupuncutre sessions lol.

And I agree with what you said for mushrooms ^^

For the comparison with cannabis, it's worse. When I smoked a lot it'd take me like an hour instead of ~30 minutes before I got fully awake. It takes me about 3 hours with slow cow. And the lack of energy is not the same, with cannabis you just don't feel motivated, with slow cow I really feel like I have no energy. Like both my mind and body want to return to those nice dreams oO

It's true that it fits better here ^^

Last night I didn't take a Slow Cow before going to bed and still experienced very vivid and longlasting dreams. So I guess the slow cow didn't really have an influence and it just coincided that my dream life flourished completely the night I took a Slow Cow before going to bed. My first dream this night was the most fucked up, other made more sense.

Earth was being attacked by geant creatures. I was in my basement when I heard some noise. I went outside and saw a giant black bird pass over me, and a few seconds later I heard someone scream, and saw far away another giant black bird holding someone in his talons. Then I looked somewhere else and saw a huge kind of puppet destroying everything in the distance. I wanted to fly to the roof too se more details but I was too scared that a bird would grip me. But my brother went, and he said he saw nothing more. That's all I can remember now, but it was much longer than that. Oh and I was in my ancient house. I am often still living there in my dreams, I find it strange since its been like 3-4 years we moved. I guess it's because I would have wanted to stay there...

Last dream I was just doing some roller in the parc. The only funny thing is that I had some old skates, designed like these:

And I was doing pretty good lol.
