How Long Does a Journey Last?

Generally, a journey lasts 4-6 hours. We suggest clearing your schedule and get all your tasks done before ingesting – there is nothing worse than coming back to earth and having obligations. You want time to marinate in your experience, rest and further reflect. Sometimes, a journey can go on longer depending on dosage or physiology. Leave yourself plenty of time to enjoy the entire cycle: the come up, the exploration journey, the landing, and the afterglow.

How to Consume Mushrooms

Eaten raw: Weigh out your dried mushroom friends and decide how you will ingest – you can simply chew them up as the most direct method with the least preparation, but mushrooms can have an unpleasant taste. We like to mix them with honey or maple syrup, or add them into a smoothie – bananas, avocado, wild blueberries, and be generous with sweetener!

Mushroom chocolate: Probably the most delicious way to ingest psilocybin. The cacao helps to metabolize psilocybin faster so effects happen sooner.

Mushroom Capsules: Our 250 mg macrodose capsules are a great way to control your dosage and easily increase the dose.  

Brewed into tea: For those concerned about taste, tea is a great option. You can largely mask the taste of the mushrooms with your favourite brew and still get a strong dose. Do note that steeping your mushrooms in hot water can bring on the effects of psilocybin faster and condense your trip into a shorter, more intense experience.

Dosage Guide

Mini Dose 250 mg – 500 mg 

The effects are mild and similar to being high on strong cannabis. Music starts to feel better, colours are brighter, and textures are enhanced. You could have mild visual enhancements or some sound distortion, but these will be subtle.

Light Dose 500 mg – 1 gram

Consistent sensorial accentuation, colours becoming brighter, and a light body high. Be prepared for the beginnings of visual and auditory hallucinations: objects moving and coming to life along with geometrical forms when you close your eyes. It will be harder to concentrate and communicate and you will notice an increase in creativity along with an enhanced sensation, lightness, and euphoria.

Full Dose 1 gram – 3 grams 

This is great for beginners who want to jump into the “real” psychedelic experience, without overdoing the dosage. This level is where visual hallucinations along with the appearance of patterns and fractals will be evident. No more hinting or subtle flashes of visuals, it’s happening for real. The surface of the object you’re observing will become shiny and moving, as your field of depth is altered. Distortions in the aptitude to measure the passage of time might cause 1 hour to feel like an eternity.

Strong Dose 3 grams – 5 grams

Strong hallucinations take over; a psychedelic flood of shapes, contours, and colors will blend together and hit the shores of your consciousness. There will be some moments when you will lose touch with reality. Random, non-existent objects will appear and the concept of time will fade away to the background. Intriguing to some, scary to others, this is the level where psychedelics can really be powerful, life-altering, and mind-expanding. Keep in mind that this dosage is only recommended for experienced users.

Heroic Dose 5 grams +

Total loss of contact with reality. Intense hallucinations. Great distortion of the perception of space and time. The disappearance of the logical and known perception of reality. Great introspection and loss of identity. Sensitive, emotional, and personal experiences are impossible to describe, once the psychedelic experience ends.
