Taste and Tablets
I use a commonly prescribed bowel herb called triphala which balances the energy patterns in the gut at the stomach, small and large bowel levels
I have always used it as a powder herb either taking it directly or making a tea Either way I experience the taste of the herb
Awhile back I had run out and went to a local outlet and couldn't find the powder and settled for tablets of the same
What a difference!
I decided to mortar and pestil the tablets so that I wanted could access the taste An incredible difference in the product and what I had previously experienced as the true herb in terms of the taste
The bottom line to my short vignette is that taste begins the digestive process It energetically sends a message to the energy mindbody of the herb's physiologic effect and has a direct and immediate impact on the physiology Using tablets interferes with that impactful moment of ingestion
Interestingly as we pay attention to the taste of triphala it will change as the mindbody gets healthier and free of stagnant energy It then tastes sweet All other tastes that triphala will generate indicate the mindbody's deficits of the plasma layer of the blood
So whenever possible experience the real McCoy when taking herbs and spices
Have you ever had such an experience? If you would like share your thoughts
See you tomorrow To health as a Skill Love DrBill
