Psilocybin is the active ingredient in magic mushrooms that, when ingested, is converted into psilocin. This chemical activates serotonin receptors in your brain can distort your perception of reality, including time, spatial awareness, and sense of self . It has been shown by studies to play a role in the psychedelic and healing effects of psychedelic medicine.
How much psilocybin you take can greatly change the outcome of your experience, ranging from feelings of increased creativity, to euphoria, to a total lack of your sense of self or the feeling that one is dying, also known as “ego death.”
Not sure how much psilocybin to take? It’s alway best to start low and slow. While everyone’s body is different, That being said, there are some typical guidelines to help get you started. Regardless of the dose you take, have someone with you supervising you that is not under the influence, someone trusted and experienced. The following doses and experiences are a general outline to follow:
MICRO (50MG – 0.5G): This dose is so low it is safe for any time use (including during work, if you’re a parent, etc.). You will not experience any hallucinations. Typically taken for improved mood, increased concentration and enhanced creativity.
MUSEUM (0.5G – 1.5G): This would be your social dose. Strong enough to feel a warm glow, but still fully present and sociable. Experiment with this dose before you are in a social situation, as some people feel the effects more than others. Expect colours becoming more vivid, enhanced creativity and child-like playfulness.
MODERATE (2G – 3.5G): After 2g you can expect interactive thought patterns, visual and auditory hallucinations, diminishing ego, heightened sense of self, perspective changes.
HEROIC (5.0G+ – done under supervision): Beyond 5g you can expect a heavy alteration of sensory input. A completely dissolved sense of self, blinding visual hallucinations, out of body experiences, intense catharsis, and ego death. Do not attempt this high of a dose if you are not experienced using psychedelics.
Microdosing involves taking a small dose of psilocybin, too little to trigger hallucinations, but enough to facilitate noticeable changes throughout your day. This may include general calmness, increased focus, productivity and creativity, lightened mood, and an overall energy increase.
Your dosing schedule is entirely up to you. Deciding how often to microdose depends mainly on personal goals and responses, but two popular protocols can guide your schedule: the Fadiman Protocol and the Stamets Protocol. The Fadiman Protocol involves taking a microdose every three days—microdosing on Day 1 and then taking two days off. This method is designed for sustainable, long-term use, enhancing creativity, problem-solving abilities, and emotional balance without disrupting everyday activities. On the other hand, the Stamets Protocol recommends microdosing for four consecutive days followed by a three-day break. This regimen, which includes the addition of Lion’s Mane mushroom, aims to optimize neurogenesis and is suited for those seeking a profound impact on cognitive functions and mental health. Both protocols provide different benefits, allowing you to choose the best approach for your wellness journey. For more information, please read our How-to Guide: Starting With Microdosing
No. Psilocybin is one of the safest drugs take. You may experience nausea, fatigue, headaches or you may mentally feel distressed. If this happens to you, know that this feeling won’t last. Breathe, change your setting, tell who you’re with how you’re feeling and calmly ride it out, the feeling will pass.
Psilocybin is not physically addictive, but people using it to escape reality may become addicted to the psychological associations reached with frequent use. All of our products are meant to be taken in a safe and manageable manner, with the intention to connect and create a meaningful practice.
Do talk to a doctor before taking psilocybin or our other products and consider possible medication interactions, family medical history, and preexisting conditions.
Do speak to a therapist, or psychedelic facilitator, before engaging in a macro journey.
Do your research in pre-journey preparation and post-journey integration.
Do consider set & setting.
Do find a trusted ‘trip sitter’ or trusted to watch over you on your GOOD FRIDAY journey.
Do start with a lower dose, following advice of a professional. Remember: start low, go slow.
Do take doses on a full stomach and with a full glass of water.
Don’t assume your body will react the same to a dosage as someone else’s. Brain composition and chemistry play a large role in how your body will react to psychedelics, so start low and go slow.
Don’t drive a car or operate machinery if you feel intoxicated in any way.
Don’t dose while you’re in charge of minors, children, or pets.
Don’t assume that you’re not under the influence of psilocybin just because you think the effects have worn off. Effects usually last 2-4 hours but can last longer.

LSD-25, also known as lysergic acid diethylamide, is a highly potent synthetic psychedelic drug derived from a substance found in ergot, a fungus that grows on rye and other grains. It was first synthesized in 1938 by Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann, who later discovered its profound psychedelic effects in 1943. LSD is renowned for causing significant alterations in thought, mood, and perception, characterized by vivid visual hallucinations, distortion of time, and enhanced emotional experiences. It has been used in various contexts, including psychotherapy, spiritual practices, and as a tool for exploring the human mind.
MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) is a synthetic drug known for its euphoric and empathogenic effects. Often referred to as “ecstasy” or “molly” when in pill or powder form, MDMA enhances mood and perception, promoting feelings of emotional closeness and enhanced sensory perception.
Kratom, scientifically known as Mitragyna speciosa, is a natural botanical derived from a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia, specifically Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This plant has been used traditionally in these regions for centuries, primarily for its medicinal properties. The leaves of the Kratom tree contain multiple active alkaloids, with mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine being the most prominent. These compounds interact with opioid receptors in the brain, producing effects that can range from stimulating at lower doses to sedative at higher doses. Kratom is celebrated for its versatility, providing pain relief, mood enhancement, and increased energy, depending on the strain and dosage. It has gained popularity worldwide as a natural alternative for managing pain, improving focus, and combating anxiety and depression.
Kratom can be habit-forming, and users can develop a dependency if it is used regularly over a long period. The primary active compounds in kratom, mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, interact with opioid receptors in the brain, which can lead to forms of dependence similar to those experienced with opioid use.
However, the addictive potential of kratom is generally considered to be lower than that of traditional opioids. Many users find kratom helpful for managing pain, anxiety, and other conditions without the more significant dependency risks associated with prescription opioids.
Like any substance with psychoactive effects, the key to safe kratom use is moderation and responsible consumption. It is advisable for individuals to monitor their usage patterns, take breaks to prevent habituation, and consult healthcare professionals if they have concerns about addiction or other side effects.
