For thousands of years, human beings have used the plants and fungi around them to sustain life and connect to their natural environment. Through ceremonial and community rights of passage, peoples have utilized these natural medicines to shift the very essence of what it means to be human. Perhaps the most famous of all these relationships is that of human and Psilocybe Cubensis, more commonly known as "Magic Mushrooms".
There are 14,000 different species of mushrooms, and more than 180 different kinds of mushrooms containing psilocybin. Magic mushrooms appear on every continent on earth less Antarctica. Peoples from all over the globe have different ways of consuming Magic Mushrooms, each with varying results. As someone who has taken part in mushroom ceremonies all over the globe I want to share some of my favorite ways of consuming them.
5. Just eat them - The most tried and true, simplest way to eat your magic mushrooms. If you are prone to upset stomach we suggest taking the mushrooms along with a small glass of orange, lemon or lime juice.
4. Tea - An excellent way to share mushrooms amongst many people. Can be a beautifully comforting way to bring in your trip. You can mix in any type of tea bag, honey or milks you wish to get the perfect taste. Personal favorite is hot water with lemon, ginger and a dollop of honey.
3. Micro Dosing - A very convenient, precise and consistent way to take your mushrooms. Makes the taste much more enjoyable and allows for an easy medium to take a little magic with you anywhere you may go.
2. Hot chocolate - There is nothing quite like a rich and creamy hot chocolate infused with magic mushrooms. Mushrooms and chocolate work together in a way that increases the potency of the psychedelic compounds within mushrooms. Offers a very effective body and mind distribution for a beautiful experience.
1. Ceremonially - Set and setting is the most important factor in determining the quality of your mushroom experience. No matter how you decide to consume your magic mushrooms, doing so in a mindful and appreciative way, within a safe environment is absolutely crucial to your success. The ability to completely surrender within a ceremonial setting will allow the mushrooms to do their greatest, most insightful work upon you. Working with experienced practitioners, familiar with the intricacies of a mushroom trip, can help you to have a focused experience. This can allow you to work through adversities, addictions or traumas that so many of us struggle with.
Once we put our mushrooms sandwiched between rice crispy squares. Not my idea the flavour/texture doesn't bother me.
Can you please create a bulletin board page so we can get in touch with "Psychedelic Therapists"? Best of all would be a feedback or star system. I'm sure there are plug-ins to add this to your website. Would be a tremendous service and greatly increase traffic to the site.
