TURKEY TAIL MUSHROOM(trametes/coriolus Versicolour):$35 for 25 grams postage included. I have located a stable supplier of organically grown/wild crafted powder. It is quite different to any I have used before and actually looks like a mushroom powder. If you want to put a spring in your step, this is the way.
Antioxidant Protection: combat oxidative stress and inflammation with an extract that packs a powerful cocktail of 35 phenols and flavonoids.
Immune System Booster: assist your body with PSK and PSP that promotes an increased white blood cell count to fight off poor health
Gut Health Balancer: rebalance the bacteria in your gut by nourishing good bacteria and reducing the impact of bad bacteria
DAMIANA: ($17.50 for 25 grams – aerials), postage included). Amazingly I have some of this hard-to-get herb… It used to be taken as a substitute to marijuana, so needs to be used with respect. Fantastic to aid sleep and lessens feelings of anxiety.
Botanical name: Turnera diffusa
Other names: Turnera aphrodisiaca.
Damiana, was used by the Aztecs for impotency and Mexican women were also known to use the fragrant leaves in a tea as an aphrodisiac. The Damiana plant is so important that it has been classified in Mexico as a “national treasure” and now a prohibited export as a live plant.
Damiana affects the psyche, producing a mild emotional uplift that can last for up to one and a half hours. Some damiana before bed relaxes , and promotes pleasant dreams. Three-dimensional effects and colour appreciation may also be heightened.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
“For you are but a cell in the body of God: thus a co-creator with him in what you think, in what you do. You change each soul you contact, literally or mentally… yet no soul may come in contact with the Entity without being changed, either in body, mind or purpose. And purpose is of course, of the soul”. Edgar Cayce reading 2794-3
SEE YOU ON FRIDAY at noon, at The Mount Macedon Hotel..
NAMASTE> JAHNE
