I expect that could have a bearing on modern man ... but those Monks of old

were " supposed " to not be wanting sex in the first place. ;-)

 

Reminds me of the tale of one Monastery. A novice monk was given the task

of going down to the labyrinth where all the old original manuscripts and

texts were filed .. and copying certain ones of the originals by hand. Of

course there were many editions of such work because for hundreds of years

they had required the novices to do this. This young feller was quite

conscientious and worked at this task for more than a month .. then he

reported back that he had accomplished his mission.

 

Some time later, the Prior .. or Abbot .. no sure what his title was but he

was the Head Monk .. decided to go down and see what this young feller had

done .. sort of an efficiency report maybe.

 

The Prior didn't come to dinner that night .. or to breakfast the next

day. When he missed supper that night the other monks began to be

concerned because it is a known fact that monks who do little but read and

write and pray and sniff Vitex all day long all look forward to chowing down

at the table. So .. they went looking for him.

 

They found him too. He was down in the labyrinth crying his eyes out.

They inquired as to what his problem was .. and was he disappointed with the

work the young novice had done. His reply was, " His work was outstanding

... he copied the original texts exactly as they were written. But .. it

appears that over the years other novices have been copying the same errors

over and over .. the original said " celebrate " .

 

Y'all keep smiling. :-)

each day that he wakes up .. here in Gawd's Kuntry .. Henry County,

Tennessee.

Kathleen,

 

The best natural medicine for rampant teenage boys is a couple of desperate

housewives. Much less risk of unwanted side effects of the treatment such as

teenage pregnancy. They will train them and turn them into fine husbands for

later in life. Ask around your area for volunteers:)

Martin or Butch,

What oils will I need for a Cougar blend?

 

One thing about teenagers; they think, this will be nice, seconds later he

thinks it was!

 

Yes Martin I agree, well trained boys will make better men in the sack!

LOL Martin, you are so right.

 

I participated by leading a control group in the vitex study with Barbara

Lucks and have the paper around here somewhere. Bottom line, using the eo,

many bad side effects for pre-menopausal women, most success with

post-menopausal. Great differences between berry/leaf eo for everyone and

we decided that some reactions were bad enough, it was best used under

medical supervision. I'll post the paper when I can find it. Wouldn't rush

to use this oil.

 

The dried berry (as a tissane) is an entirely different story. Chaste tree

has multiple beneficial properties for pre-menopausal or post menopausal

women by acting on the pituitary gland to stabilise hormonal imbalances.

Chaste tree berries have been documented as treatments for PMS and menopause

for hundreds of years; the berries contain progestins which relieve hot

flushes and vaginal dryness in some women. Recent herbal information says

berries, leaves, stems, all plant parts are used, but traditionally, only

the berries were.

 

Be Well,
