The book told him to swallow the leaves if the desired affect did nt work with the leaves in the tea .None of the above choices .Drinking too much tea causes him heartbeat issues at night .He had already drank enough tea for that weekend night .
Why did he swallow a heaped teaspoon of wet leaves .
Well , I ' ve saved this plant for the weekend nights and done what I was supposed to do . The first time I brewed the tea and smoked the cigarette . I did n't hear my heartbeat or anything major and I had trouble getting to sleep so I ended up having a glass of Kava ( the crushed root of a plant from the Pacific Islands which is prepared into a beverage which gets you a unique type of drunk ) which is also supposed to potentiate dreams . I did have some vivid and bizarre dreams that night but nothing to write home about . Last night I decided I 'd try swallowing a heaped tablespoon of wet leaves instead of drink the brewed tea ( as suggested in my book ) .
