Yerba Mate: The Essential Facts You Need to Know About This Healthy Beverage
Tumblr media
Origin and History of South Africa tea South Africa tea is a plant native to subtropical South America. It has been cultivated and consumed as a beverage for centuries by the Guarani and other indigenous peoples of southern South America, including Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and southern Brazil. The South Africa tea plant is an evergreen tree or large shrub that can grow up to 13 meters tall. Its leaves and twigs are used to make the South Africa tea beverage after they are dried and aged. Indigenous peoples discovered the benefits of South Africa tea and began drinking it for its many health properties and stimulating effects long before Europeans arrived in South America. South Africa tea drinking traditions became ingrained in the culture and beliefs of the Guarani and other native groups. Nutritional Profile and Health Benefits of Yerba Mate South Africa tea contains an abundance of important vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other health-boosting plant compounds. A typical serving contains potassium, manganese, copper, magnesium, various B vitamins like riboflavin and niacin, and vitamin A. South Africa tea is also packed with antioxidants, especially polyphenols. The main active components believed to provide South Africa tea's benefits are methylxanthines like caffeine, theobromine and theophylline. Studies have linked South Africa tea consumption to weight management, boosted energy and mental focus, reduced inflammation, and lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. The antioxidants in South Africa tea may help protect cells from free radical damage. Many users also swear by its energizing effects without the jitteriness of coffee. Preparing and Enjoying South Africa tea South Africa tea is traditionally prepared using a small hollowed gourd called a Yerba Mate or calabash and a bombilla, a filtered metal straw. Loose South Africa tea leaves are added to the gourd along with hot but not boiling water around 150-175 degrees Fahrenheit. The bombilla allows for sipping the beverage without ingesting leaf particles. South Africa tea can also be enjoyed using a French press, tea filter or infuser, or ready-to-drink canned or bottled forms. The intensity depends on steeping time - shorter sessions result in a milder taste. Enjoy on its own or blend South Africa tea into smoothies, juices or drinks. The taste has been compared to green tea with nuances of grass, hay and nuts. An acquired taste for some, South Africa tea has a strong, earthy flavor profile. Cultural and Social Significance Drinking Yerba Mate is ingrained in South American culture and constitutes an important social tradition, ritual and bonding experience. In countries like Argentina, Uruguay and Southern Brazil, sharing mate is an integral part of daily life and brings people together. Often consumed from a shared gourd using the same bombilla, the act of sharing mate is a sign of friendship, trust and solidarity. People commonly drink mate in groups outdoors at social gatherings, parks, or on construction sites. "Pase el mate" or "pass the mate" is a common phrase for offering it to another. Special social "mateadas" or mate drinking sessions are also organized for holidays and events. The sharing of the South Africa tea drink represents generosity, hospitality and togetherness at the core of social celebrations in these cultures. Get more insights on Yerba Mate

Is there anything from before being locked up that Narinder still does? Habits that he might still have, rituals he might still try to do, anything from godhood he has to get used to not being able to do anymore?
Tumblr media
He has a hovering-issue when it comes to running the Cult and doing Rituals (ESPECIALLY Blood rituals. He does not condone them, as they are ancient and incredibly dangerous/instable). He's also had to get used to being so small and incredibly weak.
The Crown no longer gives him eldritch strength, and his body has pretty much lost most of its muscle mass because of it, having been born extremely weak and sickly. The physical traits took longer to revert.
But, the thing he struggles with the most is how large the world is and how the fresh air still burns his lungs. How the pressure makes his bones ache. When the weather starts to drop, how he now experiences migraines and illnesses which leaves him sicker than most with his naturally unwell body. He spent so many centuries wanting out of his small prison, but had not considered (enough) how large in comparison the outside would be. The depth leaves him feeling too open and vulnerable.
Luckily, his spouse has a love for big blankets (too many of them), good for hiding.
The first years without one was no fun. They thought he was lazy, hiding away every day in his shelter, though it was only partly true.

sometimes I have autistic realizations that hit really hard.
I'm listening to a podcast (science vs) episode about meditation and what it does/how you do it/if it works. first there was an example of a meditation for mindfulness and focusing on breathing and how it feels. I was thinking how that seems pointless because i'm always aware of how it feels to breathe: my chronically stuffy nose, asthma, ribcage/back hurting if I breathe too deep/etc. but I already knew I have to think about breathing more than most people or I might accidentally hold my breath, and my chronic stuffy nose is very annoying to deal with.
then this part i'm at now talks about how most people go through taking a shower without really realizing they're doing it, like they arent feeling the shower sensations and just go through the motions. so mindful showering is feeling the water on your skin, feeling the temperature of the water and how it changes, etc. "being present, knowing what it feels like, knowing you are there and alive and having that experience..." and that's what mindfulness is.
the thing about me, due to being autistic, i'm basically practicing mindfulness 24/7 against my will. my sensory units in my brain are on constant overdrive and I cannot turn them off. i'm aware of every sensation and feeling and sound and etc at all times and can't ignore them.
the big realization this gave me is that...I'm profoundly aware of being alive and present. i'm overly aware of what i'm experiencing at all times. while most people can use mindfulness to ground themselves from overwhelm and anxiety caused by every day life worries, I GET anxiety and overwhelm from mindfulness-like experiences.
how do i tune things out and turn off my brain? I need an anti-mindfulness method that isn't dissociating out of my mind 😅

Writing is the one activity where I prefer to have total silence. So I got a pair of earplugs. I can't recommend it enough. I can take them with me anywhere I write, and it blocks most ambient sounds and talking, so I can just live in the world of my story.

allow me to channel aziraphale and be delusional for a moment (❤️) but i really do believe angels are, by default, sky cats. if they weren’t stuck in an understimulating environment and forced to stare at white walls all day, they (probably) wouldn’t slap fight each other and start pointless wars. give them a week on earth, set them loose, and they’d be like that video of cats cautiously following around a roomba. they’re naturally curious and dumb as bricks. you could, theoretically, stop the war with a laser pointer and some imagination.

Penny
D: Mistakes? Well, let's go through some of Sammy's greatest hits. Drinking demon blood, check. Being in cahoots with Ruby. Not telling me that you lost your soul. Or how about running around with Samuel for a whole year, letting me think that you were dead while you're doing all kinds of crazy. Those aren't mistakes, Sam. Those are choices!
D: Look, man, I don't even remember what I said, but, uh –
S: But what? But you didn't mean it? Oh, please. You and I both know you didn't need that penny to say those things.
D: Come on, Sam.
S: Own up to your crap, Dean. I told you from the jump where I was coming from, why I didn't look for you. But you? You had secrets. You had Benny. And you got on your high and mighty, and you've been kicking me ever since you got back. But that's over. So move on, or I will.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
D: Your blood's supposed to be purified, isn't it? You ever, uh -- you ever done the "forgive me, father" before?
Well, I mean, I could give you suggestions if you want.
All right. Well, I'm just spit-balling here, but if I were you, uh... Ruby, killing Lilith, letting Lucifer out, losing your soul, not looking for me when I went to Purgatory, for starters. Or, hey, h-how about what you did to, uh, Penny Markle in the sixth grade? Why don't you lead with that?
S: Well, that was you.
D: Carry on.
S: You can barely do it with me. I mean, you think I screw up everything I try. You think I need a chaperone, remember?
D: Come on, man. That's not what I meant.
S: No, it's exactly what you meant. You want to know what I confessed in there? What my greatest sin was? It was how many times I let you down. I can't do that again.
D: You seriously think that? Because none of it -- none of it -- is true. Listen, man, I know we've had our disagreements, okay? Hell, I know I've said some junk that set you back on your heels. But, Sammy...come on. I killed Benny to save you. I'm willing to let this bastard and all the sons of bitches that killed mom walk because of you. Don't you dare think that there is anything, past or present, that I would put in front of you! It has never been like that, ever! I need you to see that. I'm begging you.
sam’s faults
purgatory
#what side of the coin will you be today?#none of it -- none of it -- is true#it has never been like that ever#i wonder where sam could have gotten these ideas from#hop in my car i'll drive you to the edge#tries to jump over the edge#i wanted you to teeter how could you ever think i'd want you to jump i need you#the writing isn't subtle and yet...#spn 8x06#spn 8x23#matter in a state having no fixed shape and no fixed volume#natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible#none of the things sam is accused of are a result of him being deliberately bad#dean knows ruby manipulated sam and that he was predisposed to be addicted to demon blood from 6 months old#dean and sam both know heaven and hell tricked them into freeing lucifer#sam absolves dean of any guilt from that#but dean can’t do the same#dean blames sam for coming back soulless#absolutely not sam’s fault but it’s one more thing to blame on him to hurt him#they had an agreement to not obsess over reviving each other again and again#dean locking sam in the panic room#something sam never holds against him#the horrible voicemail the one sam never uses against dean#these things are so obvious why are people stupid#sam always had good intentions he just wanted to help people but he was doomed from the beginning#whatever dean did he was always in the right because he was chosen by heaven#even when sam got to be the hero and throw himself into the cage with lucifer he was atoning for his mistakes#and dean and bobby let him go to hell all the while thinking he deserved it#and sam believes when dean and everyone else tells him he has darkness inside even though he’s the kindest heart among them#all because he was groomed to be the devils vessel and because he wanted freedom from the life his family tried to guilt him into

I keep remembering that back in the congregation I most recently attended, there is an elder’s wife who is a rockhound for the scientific and aesthetic intrigue, but also believes in crystal healing… which, all things considered, is absolutely fucking bonkers.
#exjw#”I don’t believe in any of the spiritistic stuff but when I rubbed sodalite on my palm when I had a cold it took my sore throat away…#So I looked it up and I guess sodalite helps the throat… so I think crystal healing works on a physical level.”#My sister in christ… that is… that is literally one of the most spiritistic things you could possibly say without getting disfellowshipped#FOR THE LOVE OF GAIA AND CERNUNNOS GET OUT OF THIS CULT AND BE THE TREE HUGGING HIPPIE YOU TRULY ARE#BE FREE#For the record I have no opinion on crystal healing and genuinely do not care if you believe in it#so long as you are also primarily doing tangible things to help yourself and not damaging your health because you only use crystals#I believe that one psychiatric doctor from Michigan who founded an asylum and said that beauty can aid the healing process#and if you surround yourself with beauty and good things; you are creating an environment conducive to healing#I also am more inclined to believe in reflexology so perhaps she was rubbing the specific area of the hand which affects the throat?#And crystals and gemstones can be heavy so holding them in your hand can stimulate your need for deep pressure if you are a sensory seeker#Or if you’re stressed they can be soothing to look at; and reducing stress is good for your physical health#So… technically… crystals can help PROMOTE health under very specific conditions#but idk about anything else#Maybe they do something spiritually?#But I don’t think crystal healing is necessarily all spiritual or all placebo#I think it’s just natural for humans to soothe themselves with rocks#It’s our inner monkey brain coming out and that’s a good thing#Society is too technical these days.
