Un viaje apasionante por los mitos y arquetipos del héroe y la hechicera, donde la autora revela cómo la sabiduría ancestral puede guiarnos hacia el equilibrio, la fuerza interior y la transformación personal."Susana Castellanos De Zubiría es una autora mágicamente excepcional, y su obra es como ella: amena, original, profunda y traviesa. Con la intuición de la hechicera que no le teme a su poder y la valentía propia del héroe capaz de mirar su interior, Susana ha llegado a comprender misterios de la psique humana que nos desvela con generosidad en esta nueva obra, una preciosa exploración de la relación entre nuestras dotes intuitivas y el coraje que nos mueve a la acción. La autora arroja luz sobre estos misterios, explicando los aspectos más enaltecidos de la esencia humana, así como nuestras capacidades para lograrlos, que es la misión oculta de cada ser. Esta es una obra valiosa para el autoconocimiento, para que desarrollemos y exterioricemos esas cualidades únicas del héroe y la hechicera que todos, hombres y mujeres, guardamos dentro, y pueden llevarnos a alcanzar la plenitud". - CAROLINA ANDÚJAR
Desde los mitos antiguos hasta el cine y la literatura contemporánea, las figuras del héroe y de la hechicera reaparecen una y otra vez como fuerzas opuestas y complementarias que siguen moldeando nuestras conductas, nuestra historia, nuestros vínculos y nuestra vida interior. Estos arquetipos no solo habitan los grandes relatos del pasado, sino que siguen vivos en el imaginario colectivo. En este libro, Susana Castellanos De Zubiría hace un recorrido por la historia, la literatura, la religión, la psicología y el Tarot para demostrarnos que el héroe y la hechicera no pertenecen solo a la fantasía, sino que siguen actuando -a veces en silencio- en nuestro día a día. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An exciting journey through the myths and archetypes of the hero and the sorceress, where the author reveals how ancestral wisdom can guide us toward balance, inner strength, and personal transformation. With the intuition of a sorceress who is not afraid of her power and the courage of a hero capable of looking within, Susana has come to understand mysteries of the human psyche that she generously reveals in this new work, a beautiful exploration of the relationship between our intuitive gifts and the courage that moves us to action. The author sheds light on these mysteries, explaining the most exalted aspects of human essence, as well as our abilities to achieve them, which is the hidden mission of every being. This is a valuable work for self-knowledge, so that we can develop and express those unique qualities of the hero and the sorceress that we all, men and women, keep inside, and which can lead us to achieve fulfillment. - CAROLINA ANDÚJAR
From ancient myths to contemporary cinema and literature, the figures of the hero and the sorceress reappear time and again as opposing and complementary forces that continue to shape our behavior, our history, our bonds, and our inner lives. These archetypes not only inhabit the great stories of the past, but also remain alive in the collective imagination. In this book, Susana Castellanos De Zubiría takes us on a journey through history, literature, religion, psychology, and the Tarot to show us that the hero and the sorceress do not belong only to fantasy, but continue to act--sometimes silently--in our daily lives.

For Anxiety and Sleep
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
Definitely recommend, a family members psychiatrist prescribed it vs big pharma medication as it's been proven to work as well as many anxiety meds without the side effects, it helped with the anxiety that my family member was diagnosed with, take before bed to calm the mind and for better sleep, and take it consistently

they're decent supplements
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
my psychiatrist recommended these to me to help with my stress & anxiety induced insomnia but so far they don't really help a whole lot aside from making me a bit sleepy. it wore off pretty quickly the first few nights but overall i'd say they're pretty decent, just a bit on the spendy side to be getting regularly. they do cause some burping, though i expected that much going off of the reviews and it was only the first night i tried them.

A Powerful Anxiolytic and Sleep-Enhancer
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
I have tried a plethora of non-pharmaceutical anxiolytics, and I can say that CalmAid is by far the most effective. For me, the effects are comparable to a low dose of Ativan, but without the drugged feeling. Here are the main things I notice:
-Relaxed heartbeat. My heartbeat is usually very pronounced, but when I take lavender, it calms down dramatically.
-Quieter thoughts. I don't know how to describe this except to say that the "volume" of my thoughts is turned way down on lavender.
-Tremendous sense of calm. It's very hard to get upset or agitated or anxious while under lavender's influence.
-Improved sleep. I've suffered from horrible insomnia for a long time, and lavender is one of the only remedies that's had a noticeable effect. It doesn't make me drowsy per se, but it makes me so calm and relaxed that sleeping is easier.
However, there are some "side effects" (I use the term loosely) to be aware of when using this:
-Reduced energy. I suspect this is just the lavender calming my stress response and revealing fatigue that's already present to some degree, but it's worth noting. As I mentioned, lavender doesn't make me tired, but it makes me just want to kick back and chill rather than doing anything very active or exciting.
-Reduced motivation. Tying into the above, when using lavender I would often rather relax and watch a movie or read instead of getting work done. This is, I suspect, the dark side to being incredibly calm, whether it's lavender or something else making you that way. When you're calm, nothing seems to matter that much, including work. Ergo, you have less motivation. I think a certain amount of anxiety is healthy for optimal motivation, and lavender does away with that.
-For these reasons, I don't consider lavender an optimal anxiolytic for social anxiety, because energy and motivation are so important in social situations. I suffer from social anxiety, and have used lavender to deal with this at times, and though it does make me less anxious, it also makes me less social. I'd recommend something more like phenibut for social situations.
Despite these limitations, I still consider this an essential component in my anti-anxiety toolkit. I just try not to use it too often. Also, it's worth noting that human studies on lavender are somewhat lacking, and without more data, we don't know what the long-term effects of using it are. As with any drug (and I do consider this a drug), I think it should be used as little as possible. I would, however, much rather use this than a pharmaceutical anxiety medication.
A final note, on when to take it: I've found the best time to be 30 minutes before bed, on an empty stomach. The effects are more dramatic when taken well away from food, and if you take it before bed, you get the sleep-enhancing effects immediately, and the anxiolytic effects all throughout the next day (it lasts a looong time).

Effective, but gave me a headache
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
I did and do like these. I find it takes the edge off my anxiety. Oddly enough, they give me a headache the next morning.
I tried only taking one pill at bedtime (instead of a second one halfway through the night); I made sure it wasn’t dehydration; I took electrolyte solution with it. I’ve pretty much eliminated anything else that a headache could’ve been caused by that I can think of.
They work well enough for me that on some nights it’s going to be toss up and I will still take it. But it’s kind of a drag knowing that something natural that works has a residual headache the next morning.

Day 1 and A Week ish Later
Size: 30 Count (Pack of 1)
I was taking Olly Stress Relief gummies for a while to control anxiety, hyperactivity and racing thoughts, and they worked great. Recently I noticed that they were becoming a lot less effective and started searching for alternatives. This was my first choice and I've only used it this morning. Took one pill. So far I have noticed a lighter mood, lack of racing thoughts, and an overall feeling of being slowed down. I can focus on conversations better, and it slightly enhanced my ability to taste, flavors seem more vibrant.. I am a bit more "lazy feeling" as others mentioned, and I did get the lavender burps. They're not horribly obnoxious for me, just a bit different. Burps lasted maybe half an hour. So far I like it.
Edit: it's been over a week now. The first few days I dealt with random headaches on and off, but did get benefits as stated above. After my body adjusted I stopped having the headaches and the "lazy" feeling. The lavender burps are still a thing and so is short term lavender breath right after taking a pill. You can describe it like a light lingering, kinda like toothpaste has a minty aftertaste, but lavender instead. For the most part I would still say it helps. It does not hit as hard as the first few days, but it is helping somewhat.
Benefits for me: Less overstimulation in public, better ability to relax after work, anxiety is more "inconvenience", easier to focus, deeper sleep, less irritability.
Cons for me: Short term lavender breath, vivid and unusual dreams, 2-3 day initial adjustment period for unpleasant side effects.
What I'm doing: Taking one pill around 7-7:30pm daily with lots of water. Taking late to sleep off any potential unpleasant initial effects, and get better sleep.
