MICRODOSING
aka "trips" have been practiced across nearly every ancient culture and religion for thousands of years, using a wide range of "plant medicines". this includes ayahuasca, peyote, and a vast array of other plant and animal species, which produce the active compounds that induce psychedelic experiences. with psilocybin, a journey dose is typically achieved by consuming around 3.5 grams of dried mushroom bodies, although these experiences can be achieved with as little as 2 grams. these "journeys" are often sought by individuals looking for insights, spiritual experiences, or personal growth. but "journeys" should always be done in a controlled and intentional manner, as the effects can be quite profound, unpredictable, and at times overwhelming. with these therapeutic doses, one can expect to experience intense visuals and deep introspective thoughts, auditory hallucinations, alterations in the perception of time and space, ego dissolution, and emotional release. as more research is being conducted nationwide, the medicinal effects of psychedelic treatments has gained a lot of popularity for its ability to treat people with clinical depression, anxiety, PTSD, end-of-life and a litany of other mental and even physical ailments. it is important to consider, however, that these trials are being conducted under the close watch of licensed professionals. so before taking yourself on an unguided journey, it is important to recognize the potential dangers and take reasonable precautions.
SAFETY FIRST
the term was popularized by renowned ethnobotanist and psychedelic pioneer, Terence McKenna, who described it as, "5 grams alone, in the dark, in silence, and with eyes closed". however, given the subjective and variable nature of psychedelics, it could take more or less than this to achieve these effects. what is for ce in general, the concept refers to a dose that is significantly higher than what is typically used for recreational or therapeutic purposes. this dose is often taken with the intention of inducing "breakthrough" experiences that go beyond ego dissolution to what some have described as the dissolution of self, often including mystical or spiritual experiences (at times communicating with celestial entities). many will experience intense and overwhelming feelings of fear, anxiety, or confusion as a "bad trip", but it is important to note that some of the most profound insights will be revealed during these journeys. because of the intensity and potential risks associated with high dose journeys, they are typically not recommended for inexperienced users or those who are not prepared for the potentially intense psychological and emotional effects. we recommend starting slow when working with the medicines, as -- you can always do more, but you can't do less. it is important to take all necessary precautions and preparations before considering one of these "heroic doses".
