L-theanine useful for alpha state?

[Mage]

I was told L-theanine useful for alpha state.

I can find 200mg pills and 400mg pills.

Has anyone tried them and gotten into the alpha state?

How useful would it be when doing a ritual?

I only used it for sleep, and I certainly can tell you that it works to take you to the alpha state.
I did not use it for rituals. But what kind of rituals would require the Alpha state?

Yes it would be as it relaxes your mind.

Don't take this as a recommendation but a bit of alcohol is great at getting into the alpha state.. However it might dull some of the mental/spiritual faculties. Some like using marijuana/cannabis. I don't use either.. After doing more than a decade of trance work, I can slip in and out of trance pretty easily.. Trance is like low alpha, bordering into theta state.

Marijuana makes some people very impressionable, and that can help quite a bit in magick.
