You may have heard of the term “microdosing” more frequently in 2020. But what is Microdosing? Microdosing is the use of psychedelics (such as magic fungi) in small quantities, typically only 5-10% a “trip” dose. When microdosing, the goal isn’t to get high, but to help alleviate feelings of anxiety, depression, and help you focus more on a wellness-based approach to your well-being over a pharmaceutical approach.
What is the deal with microdosing and well-being?
Microdosing opens our minds and helps change our thought patterns that are psychologically mapped to anxiety, depression, and lack of drive. Many people have been able to break these habits and thought patterns, allowing them to open their minds to a happier, healthier, and more productive life. Isn’t that the goal, in the long run, to be happy? The crazy part is, this is not some “new method”. Microdosing has actually been around since the late ’70s and as research broadens we are starting to realize the true “magic” within mother nature.
With something like microdosing, you have to give yourself time and a safe space to do it. Again, this is not meant for you to just get high. Consider this as a treatment. Whether a safe space means getting out in nature, curling up with a book, or simply doing whatever lights you up and gets your creative flow going, this journey is about you and your mental well being. By giving yourself a safe environment to experience your journey, you will have a better chance of receiving the complete benefits of microdosing mushrooms.
I think for many of us, and for some of us who are still unsure about microdosing, we have that feeling of loneliness, confusion, but also hope – especially after the year we just had – and microdosing appears to be a tool that can help us navigate through these feelings and thoughts.
When it comes to our product, we suggest starting your microdose journey on a day that you can spend doing something you love.
Just remember, be kind to yourself and feel the good.
