Does Microdosing Mushrooms Actually Work?

Microdose Explanation

From Silicon Valley execs to college professors, and even moms, the number of those who use magic mushrooms to improve their lives both creatively and productively is on the rise. Magic mushrooms are no longer considered the preserve of hippies and socialites attending cultural festivals like Burning Man, they’re increasingly becoming part of everyday life. Heck, even the government has started taking notice of this trend with cities like Oakland and Denver in the US now moving to decriminalize their use.

 

What is Microdosing?

Microdosing means taking miniscule amounts of magic mushrooms once every few days which are usually dried and ground into a powder. Now, instead of using 100 micrograms of the stuff which is enough to give you a full psychedelic experience or trip, techies, redditors and ordinary folks like your next door neighbor now swallow 10 to 20 grams every so often to alleviate their mental health. Some guys even go to the length of using digital jewelry scales so they can weigh their stash more accurately.

It’s plain and simple, people who don’t want to get high, but are just looking for a way to feel better about themselves will tell you microdosing mushrooms are the way to go. Not only do shrooms boost their productivity at work, they’re able to handle their kids and relationships better.

 

How do Magic Mushrooms Work?

Psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, works by binding to serotonin, a chemical that’s produced by nerve cells which sends signals between these cells.

This is how it happens:

  • Once the psilocybin reaches your gut it’s converted into another chemical called psilocin.
  • Psilocin binds to serotonin receptors called 5-HT2A triggering your brain to go through major changes- essentially a domino effect.
  • Consequently, the level of activity in your visual cortex increases, changing the way you perceive things.
  • The visual cortex is the part of your brain that’s responsible for abstract thinking, thought analysis, and plays a key role in mood and perception.

In a word, the psilocybin in the mushrooms profoundly changes how the different areas of your brain synchronize with each other- like a conductor guiding an orchestra.

Dr David Erritzoe a researcher at the Imperial College London speaking to The Guardian said, “If we do brain imaging when a full dose of psychedelics is in the brain, a lot of the functional networks that we can measure start to fuse into each other. There’s broader communication between the networks. That could be the biology behind this ‘more-free’ state of mind or perception that people typically report.”

What Research Says about Magic Mushrooms

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, magic mushrooms can make you experience the following things:

  • Feelings of relaxation similar to what low doses of marijuana make you feel.
  • Introspective or spiritual experiences.
  • Nervousness, paranoia, and panic reactions

 

Mushrooms can treat cancer-related anxiety or depression

A study conducted by Johns Hopkins researchers on a group of people suffering from cancer-related anxiety or depression showed that they experienced significant relief for up to six months from a single large dose of psilocybin.

The study found that:

  • Almost 80% of participants continued to experience clinically significant reduction in depressed mood and anxiety.
  • 83% experienced a higher sense of well-being or life satisfaction.
  • 67% of participants ranked their experience with psilocybin as one of the top five meaningful experiences in their lives, while about 70% said it was one of their top five spiritually significant lifetime events.

The effects of magic mushrooms last four to six hours

According to Roland Griffiths a professor of behavioral biology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, a single dose of psilocybin can last for four to six hours but, as the study showed, can produce lasting reductions in depression and anxiety symptoms.

Charles Grob, a psychiatry professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, believes that by contrast, a microdose of magic mushrooms, has far more subtle effects, saying “It kind of enhances sensory perception.” He goes on to explain that microdoses of psilocybin makes colors to appear brighter, gives the user a greater appreciation of nature whereby they’re able to “delve into psychological and interpersonal issues.” He also believes that a microdose allows you to function in your day to day life.

Microdosing mushrooms increase alertness

Cognitive scientist Vince Polito, led a study that was published in the open- access journal Plos One which followed 98 microdosers who were already using psychedelics to find out what their experience was like. The study noted some clear changes. For example, the participants  reported decreased mind-wandering, lower levels of stress and depression. The study concludes that “microdosing may lead to more subtle changes characterized by improvements in mental stability, the capacity to sustain attention and increased ability to become engaged in intense imaginative experiences.”

Does Microdosing Work for Everyone?

As the studies above show, yes. However, research is ongoing to prove beyond doubt that the feel-good symptom is more than just a placebo effect of taking the drug. However, there are some folks who say that microdosing works for them best in specific situations. For example it may help with creative tasks like handling people, but may be a distraction when it comes to the more mundane tasks like bookkeeping. Some report that microdosing works better for them when they combine it with other activities like psychotherapy, dieting and regular exercise.

Are There Risks Involved In Microdosing?

David Nutt, a Professor of Neuropsychopharmacology at the Imprerial College London believes that psychedelic drugs like LSD when taken every day could narrow the heart valves, but states that there’s no evidence that psychedelics are dangerous to your health. It’s only the actions of those under its influence that can be harmful.

Psychedelics are not recommended for people who have bipolar disorder or psychotic illness as they can trigger a psychotic episode. You should also shouldn’t mix psychedelics with other drugs or alcohol, for that matter. It goes without saying that driving while under the influence of psychedelics is a big no-no.

Conclusion

Magic mushrooms are showing a lot of promise especially in the area of treating depression and kicking habits like smoking, if the studies done so far are anything to go by. There’s also undeniable anecdotal evidence that microdosing on them improves one’s overall wellness, in the same way as yoga or meditation.

Top 8 Benefits of Shrooms

Golden Teacher Shrooms Canada

For years, magic mushrooms have been known to give people remarkable spiritual experiences enabling members of ancient tribes such as the Aztecs to communicate with their gods. Now consensus is building among researchers that shrooms aren’t necessarily the harmful and addictive drugs they’re made out to be. In fact, they could provide the key in holistic healing for human beings.

Here’s a look at 8 Benefits Shrooms:

 

1.   Shrooms Soothes Anxiety

If you’re the kind of person who suffers from bouts of anxiety, there’s some good news for you. Psilocybin mushrooms can help reduce your anxiety levels. A study conducted by a team of scientists at John Hopkins showed that moderate doses of shrooms in conjunction with psychotherapy helped terminally ill patients overcome anxiety and depression caused by their diagnosis. After a 6 hour treatment almost 80% of the participants showed significantly reduced anxiety and depression, results that were still evident 6 months down the line. 83% of those treated reported they were more satisfied with their quality of life, while two-thirds admitted their psilocybin session was one of the five most important experiences in their lives.

 

2.   Magic Mushrooms Lowers Depression

You may or may not know this, but Canadians are ranked as one of the highest users of antidepressants in the world. OECD, which released this statistic says that as much as 9% of Canada’s population is on one medication or other for fighting depression. Luckily a lot of research has been done on psilocybin therapy in relation to depression. In fact, psilocybin therapy has been given “breakthrough therapy” status by the FDA for the treatment of depression meaning its approval for such use is now being fast tracked.

Among the more promising outcomes of research is a 2017 study by the Imperial College London which found that psilocybin “may effectively reset the activity of key brain circuits known to play a role in depression.” A different study also showed that psilocybin combined with psychological support can revive one’s emotional responsiveness. It suggested that the chemical works without emotionally blunting patients as is the case with conventional antidepressants.

 

3.   Shrooms Alleviates OCD Symptoms

You’re probably familiar with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a condition that’s associated with unreasonable thoughts and fears that result in compulsive behaviors like constantly washing your hands for fear of germs, or the need to arrange things in a specific way. Patients suffering from bipolar disorders are usually the most affected. Studies done by the University of Arizona showed that magic mushrooms were able to successfully treat the symptoms related to this disorder.

According to Dr. Francisco Moreno and Dr. Brian Bayze who work at the university, psilocybin works together with various serotonin receptors in the brain, including those which control certain brain regions of individuals with OCD. By treating them with multiple doses of shrooms, the binding activity of serotonin receptors changes thereby reducing such symptoms.

 

4.   It Can Treat Addiction

Whether you’re addicted to smoking, alcohol, or cocaine, psilocybin mushrooms could provide the answer to breaking these habits. One pilot study conducted by John Hopkins University researchers revealed that psilocybin therapy enabled participants to abstain from smoking for a period of 12 months during which follow-up was done.

Matthew Johnson, an associate professor of psychiatry, who led the study believes shrooms can potentially treat other substance abuse disorders like alcohol and cocaine addiction. According to him, these disorders are caused by “a narrowed mental and behavioral repertoire”. Such people can be shaken out of their routines using well-coordinated psilocybin therapy sessions.

 

5.   Magic Mushrooms Stimulates Growth of New Brain Cells

We know that psilocybin can help the brain establish new connections across its different regions but, get this, it can also help the growth of neorons in the brain. Research done by the University of South Florida showed that psilocybin enabled lab rats to overcome their fear by promoting the growth of new neurons in their brains, a phenomenon known as neuroplasticity. To put it differently, psilocybin repairs and grows brain cells by binding itself to receptors in the nerve cells that stimulate healing. Dr. Briony Catlow, the study leader, hopes the findings can be extended to humans in clinical trials.

 

6.   Psychedelic Mushrooms boost your creativity

It’s no secret that magic mushrooms improve your mood. At higher doses shrooms can send you into a euphoric state, but they can also promote a sense of creativity and insightfulness even at lower doses better known as microdoses. A 2018 study published in the journal Psychopharmacology corroborates this. It found that participants who microdosed on psychedellic mushrooms came up with more ideas on how to solve a task. The researchers found that they “were more fluent, flexible and original in the possibilities they came up with”.

 

7.   They Can Change Your Personality

Although brain function generally returns to normal after psilocybin psychotherapy session, research has shown that some effects can last longer. One such study, published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, found that psilocybin can result in long-term changes in behaviors, attitudes and values. While studying its effect on five broad domains of personality- neuroticism, extroversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness, it demonstrated that there were “significant increases in openness following a high-dose psilocybin session.”

Openness refers to an individual’s attitude towards new experiences, and goes hand in hand with characteristics like imagination, creativity and aesthetic appreciation. In the study researchers reported that openness not only increased during the psilocybin sessions with participants, but almost 60% of the participants maintained a significantly higher level of openness more than one later. However, those who went through this personality change are only the ones who had a complete mystical experience during their high-dose session. The study went on to explain that the high dose should be administered under supportive conditions.

 

8.   Shrooms Can Potentially Treat Alzheimer’s

Following the findings by scientists that psilocybin promotes neuroplasticity in the brain, psychiatrists like Prof. Roland Griffiths from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine think there’s an opportunity to study the effects of psychedelics in people with early Alzheimer’s disease. Speaking to Forbes, he said, “To the extent that these drugs produce neuroplasticity, there may be some enduring effects on cognitive process,” Although that’s in the future, he’s happy  that for now they know they can treat depression that comes with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis using magic mushroom drugs.

 

Conclusion

As much as magic mushrooms provide the health benefits described above, it’s good to remember that higher doses are administered in a controlled clinical situation. If you’re not highly experienced in taking psilocybin mushrooms we recommend that you start off by microdosing then increase your dosage as you get used to their effects.

How Much Magic Mushrooms Should I Take To Get The Desired Effect?

Check out the magic of **magic mushrooms** right here! ![Discover the wonders of magic mushrooms](https://magicmushroomsdispensary.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Magic-Mushrooms-Dispensary-7.jpg “Discover the wonders of magic mushrooms”) This isn’t just any photo; it’s a key that unlocks a world where mushrooms do more than just sit on a pizza. Whether you know your way around a mushroom or you’re just wondering why everyone’s so into them, this photo story is like a treasure map. It leads to surprises and little-known facts that’ll change how you see nature. If expanding your mind sounds like a trip worth taking, then this mushroom adventure is calling your name. You’ll discover stuff that’ll amaze you. And believe me, the journey is every bit as exciting as the destination. Don’t skip out on this chance to dive deep into the mushroom magic!

If you’re having challenges coming up with a mushroom dosage to give you the right psychedelic experience, don’t worry. It’s something lots of psychonauts go through while experimenting with hallucinogens. It’s perfectly understandable, you want to get the best out of your trip without overdoing it.

Unfortunately there’s no one size fits all dosing recommendation because there are many factors that contribute to the high you get from your shrooms including the potency of the magic mushrooms, your weight, as well as your state of mind. So calibrating the dosage that’s most suitable for you is a painstaking process that could involve starting off with low doses and working your way up until you hit the right note- metaphorically speaking.

This means that if we take a normal microdose to be 0.2 to 0.5 grams of mushrooms, it’s probably best to start off with 0.1 grams if your body weight is below 100 lbs. This can be increased to between 0.3 grams to 0.5 grams for a bodyweight of 200 lbs and over.

 

Fresh Versus Dry Mushrooms

Mushrooms usually have a dry weight that’s about 10% of their fresh or wet weight. That means when you take 5 grams of fresh mushrooms what you’re really getting is 0.5 grams of psychoactive compounds from them. That said, the amount of psilocybin will vary depending on the part of the mushroom you consume and even the variety of mushroom. Let’s not forget there are over 180 species of magic mushrooms known to contain psilocybin.

Research on one of the more popular strains, Psilocybe Cubensis, shows that you’re likely to get 0.37–1.30 % of psilocybin when you take the whole mushroom, where a higher concentration of 0.44–1.35% is found in the cap, while 0.05–1.27% is present in the stem.

Now if you’re the kind of person who likes to prepare the mushrooms yourself you should know that microdosing works best when you maintain the same variety of mushrooms in your regimen and grind them into powder form. This enables you to get a more consistent high from each hit.

 

How Much Magic Mushrooms Should You Take?

It depends on your level of experience with psychedelics and how much you want to push the envelope. Let’s look at the 5 dose sizes that are commonly used.

1. Microdosing- 0.2 to 0.5 grams dried

As we’ve seen, it’s best to go the microdosing route if it’s your first time taking magic mushrooms. You could begin by consuming 0.1g of powdered mushrooms as your starter microdose. You can measure out the amount yourself or take the dose in the form of a capsule or pill that contains the exact dose of mushroom powder. After your first attempt, you can gradually adjust this amount until you hit your sweet spot.

On such a low dosage your emotions should be generally under control. You probably shouldn’t expect any visuals or any obvious changes in mood. This dose is ideal if you’re looking for a subtle boost in your energy and creativity levels.

A word of caution

Apart from how much you should take, how often is an equally important question to address. James Fadiman, who introduced the concept of microdosing into popular culture, recommends microdosing once every three days. It’s also a good idea to take notes on any changes you note in your mood and behavior.

2. Minidose: 0.5 – 1.0 grams dried

This is a mid-low dosage that gives you more than just a subtle boost in your mood and you should start getting some visuals. Some describe the feeling it gives you as “gently floating in the clouds.” It’s ideal for a party setting or hanging out with your buddies on a Friday evening. A mini dose can also be useful for some reflection and helping in your creative processes.

3. Museum dose: 1.0 – 2.0 gram dried

Once you’re on a museum dose your brain waves shift towards alpha oscillations as you transit into a flow state. Expect the visuals to get more intense, you’ll feel a lot like laughing as you experience some good vibes. Conversations may get deeper too, and you start to feel like you’re going through some really life-altering experiences.

4. Moderate dose: 2.0 – 3.0 gram dried

Buckle up because this is the classic psychedelic trip that’s achieved such notoriety. It’ll feel like being pushed into the deep end of a pool when you’re a first-time swimmer. However you’ll still retain some level of control, riding the wave and catching a breather as you go. At this point, the visuals get really intense, and you might perceive things you’ve never imagined. A moderate dose is certainly better suited for the more experienced users and should be taken in the company of people you’re more comfortable with.

5. Megadose: 3.0-5.0g

If you’re already familiar with the classic trip and are looking for new spiritual highs, you’ll probably want to try the mega dose. It’s definitely not for the weak-minded. Experts say that this is the level at which you experience ego death and a spiritual rebirth. This high is very intense, so it’s always good to speak to someone with experience before trying it out. Mind you, taking a mega dose should never be used to escape from your fears or inhibitions. If anything, it should enhance your life.

 

Other factors that affect your trip

Keep in mind that when all is said and done, the dose size is only one aspect of your psychedelic experience. It can’t be overemphasized how important it is to be in the right space mentally and in a supportive and safe environment as you go through your trip.

It’s My First Shrooms Trip, What Should I do?

Preparing for Your Magic Mushroom Experience

It’s normal to be a little anxious before your first magic mushroom psilocybin trip. But you can relax, we’ve got your back on this one. We’ve put together a list of do’s and don’ts, and generally tried to give you an idea of what to expect inside your psychedelic journey.

First up, you need to know that the effects of the shroom will depend on:

  1. The dosage: at lower doses like the minidose (0.5g-1g) or museum dose (1g-2g), psilocybin mushrooms will mainly distort your sense of perception. But at higher doses (2g-5g) you will begin to experience powerful hallucinations referred to as spiritual trips.
  2. The strain of psilocybin mushroom: there are several types including the Big Mex, The Ecuadorian, or the Transkei Cubensis that will give you varying trip outcomes effects. That’s because they have different concentrations of alkaloids. Some, like the Transkei will give you more powerful visuals compared to the Golden Teacher which is mellower.
  3. Your mental status: you need to be in a good place mentally before taking shrooms, otherwise issues buried in your subconscious mind will bubble to the surface. Your worst fears could be amplified during your trip.

 

What Effects Should I Expect From Psilocybin Mushrooms?

Like most psychedelic trips, mushroom trips, vary from one individual to the next. Some may perceive intense visual effects, while others may have a more introspective psychedelic experience.

During the trip you’ll start feeling some interesting sensations in your body; this is normally what is referred to as a spiritual adventure. At this point you’ll feel as if there are no limits to time and space. You feel deeply connected with the universe.

Your sense of taste, smell and touch, as well as your hearing, and vision gain new dimensions like you never imagined. Expect the objects around you to become more vivid and concentrated, acquiring a new clarity.

Soon you’ll start giggling uncontrollably as euphoria takes over. You’ll hear the sounds around you begin to echo as the things you eat (if you do manage to keep it down) gain a new exciting taste.

Close your eyes and you’ll see intense 3D geometric patterns, rotating and switching into different intricate shapes. Open them and the walls, floor and ceiling will be covered by these patterns dancing in their full glare, almost as if some strange kaleidoscope has taken over your normal senses.

Next are your thoughts. They’ll flow freely and effortlessly, gaining a life of their own. They may diverge into different trains of thought, taking place simultaneously until they eventually converge. Prepare to experience life-like dreams played out by your subconscious in your mind’s eye.

 

What Rules Should I Observe?

  1. Don’t forget the “Set and Setting” Rule

The “set” is your state of mind. Try to relax and have positive thoughts as much as possible before taking the  magic mushrooms. If you’re anxious or annoyed don’t take shrooms otherwise your trip can quickly turn into a frightening and messy experience.

The “setting” is the physical environment and person(s) around you. If you want to have good vibes from your experience be in the company of a positive and reassuring person whom you’re comfortable with.

  1. Have a Trip Sitter

A “trip sitter” is someone, possibly a friend, who takes up the responsibility of looking after you, the tripper. Having someone like that around makes the atmosphere safer and can help in case you run into problems you can’t handle on your own. They can take shrooms in small doses just to keep you company and so as to empathize with what you’re experiencing.

  1. Use the Correct Shroom Dosage

How much shrooms should you take, can be a tricky question. It’s always best to err on the side of caution. Start slowly with a microdose of say, 0.5g and then refill once you reach the peak. Don’t try taking a full dose if it’s your first time, because you may not be able to handle its potency. Here’s how much magic mushrooms you should take to get the desired effects.

  1. Don’t Drive

You shouldn’t drive a vehicle or operate any kind of heavy machinery while you’re under the influence of shrooms. Also don’t take mushrooms a day before an important event like doing an exam or attending a job interview.

  1. Don’t get in Trouble with the Law

Mushrooms are best taken indoors either at home or in a place that’s familiar and comfy. That way, in case things don’t go according to plan, you can maintain your privacy. Keep off the streets when you’re taking mushrooms for the first time.

  1. Things to do on Shrooms

There’s lots of fun things you can do when tripping on magic mushrooms like relaxing on the couch or bed, look at art, watch a movie, listen to good music, play video games, or go stargazing.

 

Conclusion

Without a doubt experiencing a “bad trip” can turn you off experimenting with magic mushrooms. A bad trip can happen when you do it in the wrong environment and your dosing is all wrong. Luckily, deadly overdoses caused by magic mushrooms are a rare occurrence. Magic mushrooms have, in fact, been rated as the safest recreational drug in the world by the Global Drug Survey.

The long and short of it is when used correctly, shrooms can provide an amazing experience, but they must be treated with care and respect.

How Magic Mushrooms Can Help Treat Depression

The Function of Psychedelic Mushrooms in Managing Depression

Magic mushrooms have been around for thousands of years, playing an important role in religious customs among Central American indigenous communities such as the Aztecs of Mexico. And now research on the psychological benefits that this medicinal fungus has to offer is intensifying, driven by the need to find a lasting solution to the mental health and addiction problems that bedevil our society.

 

Use of Magic Mushrooms to Treat Depression

One of the more interesting findings by researchers has been the magic mushrooms’ potential to treat depression. Several studies have been done as follows:

  • In 2015, psilocybin was used to treat alcoholism and the results of were published in a proof-of-concept study circulated in the Journal of Psychopharmacology.
  • In 2016, a publication in the Lancet Psychiatry revealed how patients suffering from moderate to mild depression showed “markedly reduced depressive symptoms” after being treated with psilocybin.
  • In another study at the Imperial College London, 20 patients with treatment-resistant depression were given psilocybin. The patients had their brains scanned before and after a high dose treatment using MRI imaging. The images revealed reduced blood flow in the amygdala, the part of the brain that handles emotional responses, stress, and fear. The amygdala is usually overactive in patients who suffer from depression and anxiety.
  • A team of researchers at Johns Hopkins were also able to prove that psilocybin could treat depressed mood and anxiety among 51 terminally ill patients. The patients experienced significant relief for up to six months from a single large dose of psilocybin, and after being interviewed said they felt the experience had increased the quality of life, and made them more optimistic.

What the Studies Teach Us

One thing that came out in the Imperial College London study is that patients who’ve received a dose of psilocybin undergo a resetting of the brain. This means that the connections between different parts of their brain loosen up and then reintegrate after going through the psychedelic trip. This could be used to explain why the patients are able to overcome compulsive behavior and rethink deep-rooted beliefs associated with depression.

 

Psilocybin works differently than antidepressants

This is starkly different to antidepressants which act by dulling our emotions to help us cope with depression. Psilocybin by contrast enhances our sensory perception by complementing our serotonin system – the system that sends signals between nerve cells. It broadens the communication pathways in our brains and enhances our emotional responses encouraging patients to face their depression head-on.

At any rate, the more conventional methods of treating depression, such as antidepressants and behavioral therapy can take weeks or even months before any positive results are seen and aren’t always effective. Besides, certain drugs used to treat depression, such as benzodiazepines, can actually be addictive.

 

Mushrooms increase your productivity

Magic mushrooms don’t just fight depression. Both lab-based research and anecdotes from users show that psilocybin mushrooms sharpen your focus, boost your productivity and enable you to connect better with others.

Research conducted by cognitive scientist Vince Polito, sought to find out what the experiences of 98 microdosers was like. The study noted changes in the participants’ behavior including decreased mind-wandering, lower levels of stress and depression. The study concludes that “microdosing may lead to more subtle changes characterised by improvements in mental stability, the capacity to sustain attention and increased ability to become engaged in intense imaginative experiences.”

 

Magic mushrooms free you spiritually

In another study by Johns Hopkins psychologists 36 healthy volunteers were given psilocybin to see how it would affect them spiritually. The study included a control group among the participants who received a placebo. After a couple of months these were the outcomes:

  • Almost 80% of the participants reported “moderately or greatly increased well-being or life satisfaction” compared with those who received a placebo during the same therapy session.
  • Most of them said their “mood, attitudes and behaviors had changed for the better,” a feeling that was acknowledged by family members, friends and co-workers.
  • One third of the subjects in the study said the experience was the “single most spiritually significant of their lifetimes”, while more than two-thirds ranked it among the top five most meaningful and spiritually significant experiences.

Conclusion

Suffice it to say the evidence that magic mushrooms have a holistic benefit on your mental wellness are overwhelming. Unfortunately the illegal status of magic mushrooms means many people will not be able to access these obvious benefits in the short term.

The Full Dose Psychedelic Trip A Journey Within

Microdosing vs Full-Dose Mushrooms Trips: What’s Right for You?

Picture this: The morning sun spills golden light through the blinds as you stretch, ready to take on the day. You reach for a small mushroom capsule—just a pinch of psilocybin, enough to gently tune your mind like a well-kept instrument. Maybe it’s blended into your coffee, or a tiny piece of dried mushroom placed under your tongue.

For many microdosers, this is part of their daily rhythm. They’re not looking to escape reality but to refine it—to add a subtle layer of focus, creativity, and emotional balance. Whether they’re deep in a work project, engaging in meaningful conversations, or simply enjoying the flow of life, microdosing provides that extra spark without disrupting the ordinary.

But for some, microdosing isn’t enough. They crave something deeper—a journey that dismantles their ego, plunges them into the mysteries of their mind, and offers a reset button on their reality. Enter the full-dose psychedelic trip.

So, which experience is right for you? Microdosing vs Full-Dose Mushrooms Trips? Let’s explore both paths.

Microdosing vs Full-Dose Mushrooms Trips

1. Microdosing Mushrooms: The Subtle Shift

Microdosing mushrooms involves consuming sub-perceptual doses of psilocybin—typically between 0.1g and 0.3g—so subtle that the effects don’t overwhelm your senses. Instead of launching you into a psychedelic realm, microdosing is more like adjusting the fine-tuning knobs on a radio, bringing clarity and depth to your experience.

Why Microdose Mushrooms?

Many people microdose for:

  • Mood enhancement: A gentle lift in spirits without the rollercoaster of a full trip.
  • Increased creativity: Artists, writers, and entrepreneurs swear by microdosing as a source of inspiration.
  • Improved focus: Whether in deep work or everyday problem-solving, it helps maintain mental sharpness.
  • Emotional regulation: Some report reduced anxiety and greater resilience to stress.

What’s Happening in the Brain?

Psilocybin interacts with serotonin receptors, particularly the 5-HT2A receptor, promoting neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to reorganize and form new neural connections. This is why microdosers often report heightened problem-solving abilities and a fresh perspective on life.

The Pros of Microdosing Mushrooms

  • Minimal disruption: You can go about your day as usual, with a slight cognitive boost.
  • No hallucinations: Ideal for those who want the benefits of psychedelics without the intensity.
  • Lower risk of challenging experiences: No risk of ego dissolution or overwhelming emotions.
  • Long-term benefits: Some users report cumulative effects, such as increased emotional resilience.

The Downsides of Microdosing Mushrooms

  • Subtle effects: Some people don’t feel much at all, making it hard to gauge efficacy.
  • Trial and error: Finding the right dose requires experimentation, as individual sensitivity varies.
  • No deep breakthroughs: If you’re looking for profound transformation, microdosing alone won’t get you there.
  • Legal gray areas: While Canada is becoming more accepting, psilocybin still exists in a legal limbo.

 

2. The Full-Dose Psychedelic Trip: A Journey Within

Microdosing vs Full Dose Trips What’s Right for You

A full psilocybin experience (typically 2g–5g) is a completely different beast. This isn’t a nudge—it’s a deep dive into your psyche, a symphony of visuals, emotions, and insights that can be life-changing.

Why Go All In?

People take full-dose trips for various reasons:

  • Spiritual exploration: Many describe mystical experiences and a profound connection to the universe.
  • Emotional healing: Psychedelics can help process trauma, grief, or repressed emotions.
  • Personal insight: A full trip often provides clarity on life’s biggest questions.
  • Therapeutic benefits: Studies show promise for conditions like depression, PTSD, and addiction.
  • A mental reset: Some users describe it as defragmenting their mind, clearing out mental clutter.

What Happens to the Brain?

High doses of psilocybin disrupt the brain’s default mode network (DMN), which is responsible for our sense of self. This dissolution of ego can lead to an experience of unity, deep introspection, or even feelings of rebirth.

The Pros of a Full Shrooms Trip

  • Profound insights: These experiences can be life-changing, reshaping perspectives and priorities.
  • Spiritual depth: Many users report feelings of interconnectedness and transcendence.
  • Potential for deep healing: Psychedelic-assisted therapy is gaining traction for mental health treatment.
  • A fresh start: The “afterglow” effect often brings renewed motivation and a sense of clarity.

The Downsides of a Shrooms Trip

  • Intensity: Trips can be overwhelming, especially for first-timers.
  • Emotional exhaustion: Processing a full-dose experience can take days.
  • Time commitment: Unlike microdosing, this isn’t something you can squeeze into a workday.
  • Risk of a bad trip: If set and setting aren’t right, the experience can become unsettling.

 

Choosing Your Path

So, should you microdose or go all in? It depends on what you’re looking for.

If you want steady, manageable benefits, microdosing is your best bet. It’s easy to integrate into daily life and can provide subtle but meaningful enhancements in mood and cognition. If you’re a busy professional, artist, or someone looking to enhance focus and creativity without disrupting daily activities, microdosing allows for that gentle boost. Over time, some people report feeling more in tune with their emotions, less reactive to stress, and generally more optimistic.

If you’re seeking transformation and deep healing, a full-dose trip may be the key. It requires preparation and courage, but the rewards can be immense. Those struggling with deep-seated emotional issues, trauma, or existential questions often find full trips offer a level of introspection and release that microdosing simply can’t provide. It’s like stepping outside yourself and gaining an entirely new perspective. While the experience can be challenging, the sense of clarity and renewal that follows can be life-changing.

Some seasoned psychonauts do both—microdosing regularly for productivity and creativity while setting aside occasional full-dose sessions for deep introspection. The key is understanding your goals, being intentional with your approach, and respecting the power of psilocybin.

The Importance of Safety

Regardless of your choice, safety should always come first. Proper dosing, set and setting, and mental preparation are crucial. If you’re considering a full trip, having a trusted guide or sitter can make all the difference.

What to Expect When You Buy Magic Mushrooms Online for the First Time

From Curiosity to Clarity: What to Expect When You Buy Magic Mushrooms Online for the First Time

For many Canadians, the idea of trying magic mushrooms begins with a quiet curiosity. Maybe you’ve heard a friend rave about microdosing for focus, or you’ve read about psilocybin’s powerful potential to improve mental health. Whatever sparked your interest, taking that first step—from wondering to actually purchasing—can feel a little intimidating.

The good news? You’re not alone, and buying magic mushrooms online in Canada has never been more accessible. If you’re new to the world of psychedelics, this guide is here to walk you through the entire process, from choosing the right product to checking out with confidence.

Let’s turn that curiosity into clarity.

 

Is Buying Magic Mushrooms Online Legal in Canada?

Before you fill your cart, it’s natural to ask: Is this even legal?

Psilocybin—the active compound in magic mushrooms—is currently classified as a Schedule III substance in Canada. However, due to shifting public opinion and increasing scientific support, enforcement around personal use and online sales has relaxed significantly.

Online dispensaries like MagicMushroomsDispensary.ca operate in a legal grey area, enabling  customers across Canada to order safely and discreetly every day.

Still, it’s crucial to buy from a trusted, reputable source—both for your safety and peace of mind.

 

How to Choose a Trusted Online Dispensary

The number of sites selling psilocybin products has exploded in recent years, but not all are created equal.

Here’s how to spot a reliable mushroom dispensary:

  1. Customer Feedback: Look for product reviews and user testimonials shared directly on the site.
  2. Clear Product Info: Reputable shops provide clear descriptions of the mushroom strain on the package.
  3. Secure Payment: Encrypted payment options like Interac e-Transfer keep your financial info protected.
  4. Established track record: The business should have been in operation for a number of years.
  5. Discreet Shipping: Orders should arrive in plain, smell-proof packaging with no visible branding.

MagicMushroomsDispensary.ca follows these practices and has built a strong reputation in the Canadian market.

2. Microdosing

Capsules offer precision and convenience.

Consider products like Dose PURE Golden Teacher Microdose Psilocybin Capsules for a balanced, consistent microdose.

3. Creative Exploration or Emotional Healing

Edibles like Mind Bliss Psilocybin Chocolate Collection are easy on the stomach and come with precise dosages.

Consider mid-strength strains like Blue Magnolia Rust Magic Mushrooms for a deeper journey.

How Long Do Magic Mushrooms Lasts

How Long Do Magic Mushrooms Last? Effects, Duration & Afterglow

Magic mushrooms have captivated psychonauts for generations, offering profound, mind-expanding journeys. But if you’re preparing for a trip, one of the biggest questions you likely have is: How long do magic mushrooms last? Whether you’re a seasoned explorer or someone dipping their toes into the psychedelic waters, understanding the timeline of effects, peak experience, and afterglow can help ensure a positive and well-planned trip.

Breaking Down the Magic Mushroom Timeline

The duration of a magic mushroom trip varies depending on several factors, including the dose, your metabolism, and whether you’ve eaten recently. But generally, you can expect the following stages:

1. Onset (20-60 minutes)

Once you’ve ingested your magic mushrooms—whether raw, dried, in tea, or as part of an edible—the effects will gradually start to creep in. Some people describe a tingling sensation, lightheadedness, or an early sense of euphoria. Visual distortions, enhanced colors, and mild auditory changes may also start to emerge.

Pro tip: If you’re new to magic mushrooms, start with a lower dose (1-2 grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms) to gauge your sensitivity before diving into deeper waters.

2. Peak Effects (1.5 – 3 hours)

This is when the magic really happens. The peak is the most intense part of the trip, often characterized by deep introspection, heightened sensory perception, and full-fledged hallucinations. Time may feel distorted, and you might experience ego dissolution or profound emotional revelations.

Expect waves of laughter, shifting patterns, and a deep connection to nature or the universe. Whether you experience euphoric enlightenment or deep introspective work depends on your mindset and setting (also known as “set and setting”).

3. Plateau (3 – 5 hours)

After the peak, the trip begins to settle into a more manageable state. The visuals are still strong, but the intensity gradually starts to wane. Thoughts may flow more smoothly, and you’ll likely begin integrating the experience as it unfolds.

4. Comedown (4 – 6 hours)

As the trip tapers off, you might feel physically tired but mentally refreshed. Some people report a sense of relief, while others find themselves lingering in deep thought. A feeling of calm euphoria can persist, and mild visuals might still be present in some cases.

Shrooms Afterglow The Magic Mushroom Gift That Keeps on Giving

The Afterglow: The Gift That Keeps on Giving

One of the best-kept secrets about magic mushrooms is the afterglow—a period lasting anywhere from a few hours to several days after your trip, where you may feel more connected, inspired, and emotionally balanced.

Many users report feeling happier, more creative, and mentally clear in the days following a psychedelic experience. This is why magic mushrooms are being increasingly explored for their therapeutic potential in treating anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

Pro tip: To make the most of the afterglow, spend time journaling about your experience, meditating, or engaging in creative activities. Many find that integrating insights gained during their trip leads to lasting personal growth.

 

Factors That Influence Magic Mushroom Duration

Not all trips are the same. Here’s what can affect how long your magic mushroom experience lasts:

Dosage: A microdose (0.1 – 0.3g) will have mild effects for a few hours, while a heroic dose (5g+) can take you on an intense journey lasting 6+ hours.

Consumption method: Eating raw mushrooms takes longer to kick in compared to drinking them as a tea, which has a faster onset but shorter peak duration.

Empty vs. full stomach: A full stomach can slow down absorption, delaying the onset, whereas taking mushrooms on an empty stomach may intensify the trip.

Metabolism & body weight: Those with a faster metabolism may process psilocybin more quickly, shortening the duration.

Tolerance & frequency of use: If you’ve taken magic mushrooms recently, your body might have built up a short-term tolerance, potentially reducing the effects.

 

How to Shorten or Extend a Mushroom Trip

Looking for a longer or shorter experience? Here’s what you can do:

To Shorten a trip:

Lemon Tekking: This method involves soaking ground mushrooms in lemon juice for 15-20 minutes before drinking. The acidity pre-digests psilocybin, leading to a faster onset and shorter trip.

Distraction: Engaging in an activity like watching TV or listening to calming music can sometimes help ground you.

Take Vitamin C or sugar: Some users report that consuming sugary snacks or Vitamin C can help lessen the trip’s intensity.

Have a trip sitter & grounding techniques: If things feel overwhelming, breathing exercises and reassurance from a sober friend can help ease the transition.

 

To Extend a trip:

Redosing: Taking a second, smaller dose about 2 hours into the trip can prolong the effects, though it may not intensify them significantly.

Pairing with MAOIs (with caution): Some natural MAOIs, like Syrian Rue or Banisteriopsis caapi, can extend the psilocybin experience. However, this should be done with care and research.

 

How Long Do Magic Mushrooms Stay in Your System?

While the trip itself lasts for a few hours, psilocybin and its metabolites usually clear from your system within 24 hours. However, some drug tests (particularly specialized urine, blood, or hair tests) can detect trace amounts for up to a week.

The good news? Standard workplace drug tests typically do not screen for psilocybin, so unless you’re undergoing specific psychedelic testing, you have little to worry about.

 

Key Takeaway: Making the Most of Your Journey

Knowing how long magic mushrooms last can help you prepare for a safe and enjoyable experience. Whether you’re taking a small dose for a gentle boost or diving into a full-blown psychedelic adventure, the key to a great trip is set, setting, and intention.

If you’re looking to explore high-quality psilocybin products, check out our curated selection at Magic Mushrooms Dispensary. From dried mushrooms to microdose capsules, we’ve got everything you need for a transformative journey.

Happy tripping, and may your adventures be magical!

dried shrooms

How to Store Your Dried Magic Mushrooms

Magic mushrooms are sensitive and require extra effort when it comes to storing them correctly. You need to be meticulous to maintain the potency and freshness of the shrooms. Fortunately, there are a number of easy ways that you can safely store your shrooms for short and long periods. This article explores the various ways on how to store your dried magic mushrooms in storage for up to three years. Continue reading to find out how… How to Dry mushrooms

Long-term storage

If you are looking to store your shrooms for long periods, there are several ways to do this:

Storing your shrooms in a freezer

Properly storing your shrooms in the freezer effectively keeps the psilocybin fresh and intact. With freezing, you are guaranteed the product’s integrity for three years or more. You easily avoid the decomposition and molding of the shrooms, which explains why shroom enthusiasts widely use this method. Place the dried shrooms in a vacuum-sealed bag before putting them in the freezer. The bags offer an ideal form of storage, and they can be easily purchased online or in your local stores. We advise storing the shrooms in various bags to make it easy to retrieve small amounts whenever you want to consume them.

Storing dried magic mushrooms in capsules form

Unfortunately, a majority of shroom consumers do not like the strong and dominating taste of raw mushrooms. This is why there are so many alternatives like edibles and capsules. With capsules, the taste is entirely masked, and microdosing becomes much easier. For proper and long-term storage, ensure the capsules are kept in a cool, dry place in an opaque, airtight container. Adding a food-grade silica packet is advisable. Using this method, the capsules can last up to a year.

Short-term storage

Storing your shrooms in honey Storing the shrooms in a jar full of honey presents a tastier way of enjoying your favorite products. You can keep the mushrooms fresh and potent for up to 4 months. All you have to do is cut the shrooms into small pieces, put them inside a container (preferably a mason jar), pour honey over the shrooms as you stir to ensure they entirely covered, and then place the jar in a cool and dark place.

Storing your magic mushrooms in foods like tea and chocolate

Mushroom chocolate and tea allow you to enjoy the fungi’ full therapeutic and spiritual benefits for about a week. The tea can be stored in brewed or dried form, depending on your preference. For the former, you can keep it inside the fridge while sealed, and the latter can be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place. Chocolate shrooms are just dried mushrooms covered in tasty chocolate. This is a fun and delicious way of consuming the fungi; however, it doesn’t last long due to melting and limited shelf life. To increase the shelf-life, store the shroom chocolate in an airtight container or bag inside the fridge. With this, you can still enjoy the shrooms after a month as they will still be fresh.

Take away

Your preferred method of storage will depend on how long you intend to keep the shrooms. Always ensure you conduct proper storage as there is no room for error with shrooms; one mistake and the potency and freshness are compromised. Make use of the guide above to enjoy mushrooms for a more extended period. At Magic Mushrooms Dispensary we offer special prices for bulk purchases. If you are looking to buy magic mushrooms, we are your to-go-to store.

Magic Mushroom Strains Explained

Magic Mushroom Strains Explained: Which One Is Right for You?

Magic mushrooms have gained massive popularity as more people discover their profound effects on consciousness, mental health, and overall well-being. But with so many strains available, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming. Whether you’re looking for a gentle introduction to psychedelics, a powerful spiritual experience, or something in between, understanding different magic mushroom strains is key to finding the perfect fit for your journey.

In this guide, we’ll break down some of the most popular psilocybin mushroom strains, their effects, potency levels, and what kind of experience you can expect from each.

 

Understanding Magic Mushroom Strains

Before diving into specific strains, let’s clarify what we mean by “strain.”

All magic mushrooms contain psilocybin, the psychoactive compound responsible for their psychedelic effects. However, different strains have varying levels of psilocybin and psilocin, along with unique genetic characteristics that influence their potency, onset time, duration, and overall experience.

Most magic mushroom strains belong to the Psilocybe cubensis species, but there are also other species like Psilocybe azurescens, Psilocybe cyanescens, and Psilocybe semilanceata, which can be significantly more potent.

Now, let’s explore some of the best-known magic mushroom strains and what makes each one special.
