"You can't rely on just microdosing alone to make all the difference in your life" Perfectly said. I feel way too many people think md is a magic pill that will make everything alright for you, and that it should work instantly. Thank you for suggesting meditation too, it is so important to combine the two; a healthy diet and exercise can also compliment md tremendously. Great video!!
I'm bipolar, try psych med most adult life, exercise, eat vegetarian and dabble with meditation and still mostly depressed until I tried md with intention, I tried it before the pandemic without intention and it didn't help, now after 5 months I'm more positive in my additude and I pay attention to things I ignored which is a major change in my life and I feel it's just the beginning.
DMT, LSD, and psilocybin mushrooms are truly remarkable. A few years back, I was grappling with severe depression and mental health issues, and was diagnosed with BPD. It wasn't until a friend suggested psilocybin mushrooms that things began to change for me. It was a lifesaver, and I've been completely clean for 6 years.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire article about psychedelics. They saved you from death bud, lets be honest.
Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? 🙏
Research shows that psilocybin mushrooms have promising results for mental health support, particularly in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety and PTSD.
Something inside me snapped, and I realized all my anxieties defeñses, and insecurities Were truly not worth the woory. all those things were the Size of a grain of sand in the vast universe I saw. how beautiful inside I am no matter the opinions and views of people. l was free of baggage. free of my faults , was able to fly
Hey Julianne I finished my microdose journey and wow along with meditation I feel like a new person. My social anxiety is gone and its SO EASY to connect with others. I used to be shy and withdrawn but my confidence has been through the roof. My memory has improved and happy memories from the past have also came back. My childhood trauma made life so foggy but these days I have never felt more clarity. I connect a lot more with all my coworkers and have never felt this close to my dysfunctional family. Now I'm going to help my brother by also recommending him the book Complex PTSD by Pete Walker. From that book I discovered another book called Getting the Love you want, which taught me how to actually unconditionally love in a relationship, something I've always struggled with because I was never taught how to love. From there I finished the Tao of Fully Feeling by Pete Walker and for the first time in 26 years, I actually enjoy reading/ebooks. And it all snowballed from YOUR microdosing video that randomly appeared on my RUclips algorithm. so THANK YOU x 100.
Hey Iggy thanks for checking back in! I was so happy to read your report - I basically screenshotted it aha. You’ve made HUGE strides, so quickly too. The way you just kept letting your intuition guide you. Well done 👏🏼👏🏼 (and that inspires me too)
@@JulianneKeu One more thank you for introducing me to the Waking Up guided meditation app! I just subscribed! I was hesitant at first but I think I just scratched the surface on the impact of mindfulness! I’ve been doing quiet 20 minute meditations 6-7 times a week and I’m so excited for what I might learn from this app!!
I have never meditated in my life but in my 2nd shrooms experience i understood the 3rd eye meditating and after got sad at suffocating grass and plants fighting to the surface once i left grass and was back to concreet it just felt plastic
You're good. You should be in high end broadcasting. Too many people make videos who don't know how to relate to an audience. You are clearly highly intelligent, articulate, and thoughtful. Also, thanks for all of this information.
I’m macrodosing right now as I watched this video 😁 sometimes I feel irritated with other people when I am tripping because I feel like they don’t understand what I am feeling and they don’t care, they’re just like “you’re tripping”
Same here. But the shrooms learned me to just let it be, and see that as training to become more confident. Why feeling bad because other people have opinions?
after taking 2g lemontek the first time i yawned like craaaazy! felt like alot of negative energies been lifted of me since. it was 40days ago and i had only 1 "down day" since. been depressed for 13years. i recommend anyone struggling with depression to look into it :) keep it up julianne you were one of the reasons i tried it out. so thank you.
@@nerad1994 no lemontek is a method where u grind the shroom and put it into fresh squeezed lemonjuice. U let it sink in for 20min and then drink it. It reduces the nausea and it hits faster but also doesnt take that long 3-4hours instead of 6-8hours
In my late teens & 20s my friends and I would do shrooms, Isd, and ecstasy occasionally. Good times! All were positive, fun, spiritual experiences. But, it's been decades. I don't know anyone who knows anyone who can get psychedelics from. I live in LA & there's a Kush store three blocks from my house, but I can't function alone on weed. I wish they sold psilocybin gummies. I'm a little depressed & a little anxious on a regular basis. I'm not a big drinker and I hate taking pills. A bite or two of a chocolate bar, or a cup of mushroom tea everyday would be a godsent for me.
I’ve been researching on psychedelics and it’s benefits to individuals dealing with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD and from my findings, they really work and I’ve been eager to get some for a while but its been difficult to get my hands on them.
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I’m now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
@ohmakure4716 I feel the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be a part of this community
James Fadiman mentioned that set and setting requirements are really only applicable for macro dose sessions. Obviously, you can't control set and setting quite as well for an extended period of time while microdosing. 'Set and setting' as used in psychedelic science and literature is understood quite differently from something like intentions and expectations, which seem more useful for microdosing. According to Fadiman there is no indication that set and setting (his definition of it) matters when it comes to microdosing. I do think it's practical to differentiate between the two. Lovely to see these topics receive more and more views. Great video! ❤️🙏🏼 Thanks for sharing your experiences.
this is purely anecdotal, but I have noticed a difference with intentional set and setting while md-ing. I have played with md's for a few years and I have noticed I do better with an hour or two of intentional microdosing, outside, moving (a walk or hike). Or, making art or doing yoga. When I microdose and work, I often find myself feeling uncentered or irritable the following day. It surely could be other factors, but its happened a number of times so I felt it worth noting.
I've been enjoying your videos. My partner and I have been microdosing off and on for about a year. It's been nice comparing my experience with your own personal reports. So that's been really interesting and insightful. I definitely can relate to most of the six topics you listed. Another one that I've noticed is that I can see a pattern with my MD experience. I do 4 on 3 off.. my fist day is usually my best day and that carries over to the second day then I have anger on the third day followed by frustration on the fourth. My next three days are reflecting on my MDing.. my 3 days off are where I feel the absolute best. Like I can feel the benefits. It's been a process. On those tough days I always tell myself it's okay because I'm headed for a wave of feeling amazing. I think the human brain gets suck in unhealthy patterns and when it's going through the positive changes it can be painful. No pain no gain basically. In the long run I've noticed a huge improved in my quality of life. Now I just do boosters when I feel I need it. Which is usually only a 4 day cycle and I'm back on track for another few months. Just thought I'd share that and see if anyone can relate? Thanks again for your lovely videos!
Glad I found your channel. Microdosed once and it was a magnificent few months. Recently tried again and had to quit. Right now I'm navigating through some heartache and the experience this time was just too much.
The questions I see come up most often in MDing groups on FB and reddit are addressed here. Julianne, we appreciate your having travelled this road for us and making the answers easy to understand. Another great video, thank you.
mindfulness is the MOST important part of this journey for anyone. You need to be able to sit with your thoughts and wake up. Psilocybin opened up the pathway to my spiritual awakening and use it to connect with the universe and everything in it.
I searched Reddit for weeks and I’ve found more in just this one video. Thank you so much. Trying my first microdose today. Hopefully goes well. Not trying to trip in anyway
Thank you for this informative video. I have been practicing Yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises since I was a kid thanks to my loving and very "Hippy" Mom. I just recently started my micro-dosing journey after losing her to very sudden and aggressive cancer. In her last days, she was micro-dosing to help her deal with her impending death. The effects were amazing and my mother and I spent some time together that I am very grateful for. She convinced me to face my PTSD and spinal pain in a new way without pain killers and anxiety medication. I'm only in my second month but I have been amazed at my attitude and how I am gravitating towards positivity and functionality despite injury and PTSD. I feel alive like when I was young! My mind is focused yet calm. My body is comfortable after 30 years long enough to help reset the pain cycle and allow me to be a better person as a father, husband, and friend. P.S. I have noticed a very different experience based on the strain or type of mushroom. I prefer The Golden Teacher because it helps but it heeps me grounded. I'm not looking to escape my problems so I tend to avoid anything that dulls my brain instead of helping my brain. Best Regards
This lady definitely knows her stuff! I am currently microdosing and have come across similar suggestions like meditation which is crucial while microdosing. I think it's important to meditate every morning for overall well-being. I do this right after my morning dose to calm me down and let the dose dissolve. I can also agree with Julianne that for someone with clinical depression (like me) it is important to start taking doses frequently (every other day / 5 days on and 2 days off etc.) instead of the Fadiman´s protocol. I felt I needed help immediately so I started taking it every other day to really feel it and also get the right dose faster. After a month of use I stopped and took a two week break and then started the Fadiman´s protocol with the exact dose that works for me. I can say that after 8 years on anti-depressants I stopped taking them (didn't help anyway) and cured my depression by microdosing magic mushrooms .. who would have believed it? Is it a placebo? I don't care, it helped me and that's what matters.
The worst PR for psychedelics is the partying and spacing out image it gets from kids mostly. Your portrayal of the real power in change as a self-responsibility is exactly what’s needed to contribute to the “rebranding” of these medicines. As someone who spent years completely sober and meditating, I view psychedelics VERY differently than I did as a 19 year old who only wanted the hallucinations.
@@BloodSweatAndMeth It is the worst PR, as it contradicts orderly legalization efforts when it's looked at as solely for "fun" purposes when in fact a lot goes wrong in those settings with this drug as opposed to a collected thought out safe tripping space. Shut up.
@@BloodSweatAndMeth You could've done a 3 minute google search, or thought about the subject from a minute change of perspective to realize what I attempt to bring to light.
I think society needs to undergo a shift in mindset. The way the US govt schedules drugs is based mainly on whether or not they have therapeutic. Which is why weed and shrooms have been banned for so long. But now people are starting to wake up and realize that recreational use isn’t necessarily bad. I took 1g of shrooms, and had a very introspective experience. About 2 hours after consuming them that phase finished and I went to a party and didn’t have more than one beer. My point with that anecdote is that you can get real benefit from it as a party drug AND as a medicine, even in the same trip. And both uses are equally valid. For me, finishing my trip at a party was probably the best possible thing because it ended on a very high note and probably double the length of the afterglow
@@bruhdabones I agree, but you forget to account for the fact that mushrooms are absolutely in no way a party drug, and everyone's individual experience will vary wildly trip to trip, person to person. It is great you had a good experience, but that is not just "the experience".
Waking up is my favourite meditation app! I found it though your videos and it has helped in revolutionizing my life. I just wanted to say thank you. Also thank you for the great content. I know you are busy working on your micro dosing course but I do miss your content.
What a pleasure to watch thank you! This video brought me comfort. I’m 49 years old and trying Microdosing for the first time. I’m on day two and I just wanted to say thank you again
Thank you so much for this video. I'm a new sub of yours and find your videos immensely helpful! Thank you for sharing your journey and insight. I currently have some issues with slightly more irritability but will probably lower my dosage and keep up on my meditation practice (the hardest part for me). I'm currently going into my 3rd week of micro dosing Psilocybin mushrooms for my mental health and its served me wonders so far. It has opened up my consciousness greatly, from being self judgmental to becoming more aware of my thoughts / actions, becoming observant and compassionate towards myself and others. This is the first time in many years where I am able to have mental clarity and to have the experience of Default Mode Network quieted. Seriously so life changing. Because of your videos I was able to learn about psychedelic integration and what it entails. The integration process has been eye opening, challenging at times but and I am learning everyday! Going into this experiment with an open mind and open heart has been so helpful. Again thanks so much for sharing, Julianne! You sharing your journey is greatly appreciated :)
Thank you for sharing this 😭 I’ve screenshotted your comment to keep for inspo for myself :P hope you don’t mind! I love that even though your protocol isn’t quite perfect - you still have the awareness + intuition to continue down this path. That is seriously so awesome to hear. Best of luck to you on everything to come 🤗
Thanks for making this video! Exactly what i needed to hear. I was literally just talking to some friends last night about microdosing and they were asking how it was going. I told them i haven’t felt much at all from it to be honest. But i know i haven’t been approaching it the right way. I’ve just been taking it and hoping it solves all my problems. Watching this has reinforced my understanding that it really HAS to be coupled with meditation and mindfulness. Thanks again for all your great work on this subject 🙌✌️
Thanks @@JulianneKeu ! I’m preparing for a 1.5 g dose sometime next month as well which i think will shake a lot of stuff loose so i can process it. Can’t wait to hear about your Macrodose/guided retreat session! Really looking forward to that video!
I am trying first week of MD. I can confirm on the "too high" dose. There is a range for me between MD and a "regular dose" (both for shrooms and lsd) where I feel a bit trippy but more like drunk and tired - not very good for anything other than lying on the bed. Below - I didn´t believe it but it really works - I feel finally motivated to do things, to work, meditate etc! And my mood improved a lot. I want to use this energy to work on myself
This was everything I needed and more. I had searched through so many reddit posts to find answers and couldn’t. You have answered so much for me. Thank you 🙏
I recently small-dosed (1/6 gram) three days in a row. About 45 minutes after ingestion, I experienced a pronounced relaxation that I haven't felt in years. This was totally surprising. Aside from this, no halucinaginic effects were felt. BUT, I must say, that on day four, the first day after my three days of small doses, I think my dopamine levels were quite low. For that one day afterward, I felt really blasé. Good thing I had that day off work.
It feels intense when you take a large amount. Whatever you have stored will certainly come out. Feels scary at first but once you go THROUGH it, it's a sense of relief. Emotional constipation is released
BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING !!! Make sure all these things are right in you life: Very regular sleep patterns. Go to bed and get up at the same time every time, even at weekends. Take regular exercise outdoors. Eat a really healthy diet and avoid all junk food. Keep hydrated, all the times. Avoid intoxicants. Meditate at least once every day. Once all these things are in place you can begin your micro-dosing regime.
Agree in many points. And very much wth the: "Psilocybin is NO happy pill!" Also to mention that some people are very sensitive to psilocybin. If there is to much agitation and loss of the ability to fokus, I would reduce the dosage.
trying to do mushrooms with a panic disorder is a real pain. i did truffles in amsterdam, tampanansis to be exact, it was not happy joy joy but it was very insightful sadly i did an entire weed brownie (yeah i know its stupid of me) about 4 days later and that gave me a massive panic attack since then its been really hard to get into shrooms without panicing, i was able to get into a nice place and draw while tripping, that was actually relaxing, but even microdosing scares me a bit.
Yes. Psilocybin opens you up to yourself. If there are parts of you that you don't like yet...you'll be meeting these parts on your magic mushroom journey, no doubt.
Good things to contemplate. I am not a meditator in the classic sense, but I spend 30-40 minutes every morning in my devotion to God. This grounds me and gives me direction for my day. It is God who drew me to microdosing. I look forward to your videos.👍
Hi Mark, that’s wonderful to hear. I would consider daily devotion to be a type of mindfulness-based practice. So in that sense, it is a form of meditation, I would say :). Glad you are continuing to find value from my videos. Thank you for your continued support via these comments
I found that anxiety would start happening if I microdose too many days in a row. It’s usually the sign that I need to take a 2 to 3 days break. I also have ADD and micro dosing does absolutely help with that. But my dose is much smaller that what is recommended. I sometimes take closer to 10mg at the start of the day and it works as a charm, doesn’t make me sleepy or anxious. 4 days on 3 days off seems to me the best protocol for me. Thanks for these videos! I don’t know many people who do this :)
Thanks for this comment! I just started microdosing and found even 50mg was way too much. I'm an HSP (highly sensitive person) so I assumed I'd need less, but now I'm dialing it down to around 25mg for only a few days instead of 4 or 5. I am noticing positive effects. Thanks for letting me know I may need even less. Do you consider yourself an HSP? Just wondered what microdosing is like for us more sensitive peeps :)
I start my Micro Dossing journey next week, I'm kind of excited. Practice yoga, love running have and using my creativity really get wait to see how micro dossing fits into my life.
Thank you! I love this channel and it has been a game changer for me. You really helped me get back on track again by introducing me to issues around building up tolerance & stacking. Just like growing mushrooms (which has also been a huge part of my healing process) micro-dosing is as much an art as a science and requires research, trial & error and, most of all, patience. Growing my own mushrooms is now a great source of interest & joy for me. I have a symbiotic relationship with my medicine! Other things that helped me was the realization that capitalism’s insatiable appetite for cheap & productive labor has created a system designed to ensure the vast majority of us are consumed by self-doubt & anxiety. Obviously I have’t escaped capitalism, but this knowledge has helped me keep it in check!
Excellent video! So clearly elucidated! I just want to add that some of us are very sensitive to substances and respond well to 50mg every three or four days. In fact, even that was a bit intense for me from time to time depending on where I was in my healing and just in life. I look forward to checking out the meditation app. So often people just reference meditation without more information as to type. For those of us who aspire to advaita (nondualist) type of Vedanta meditation, this mindfulness rendition is very different.
In my experience maintaining Dysthymia & A.D.D. and the psychotropics administered to me by various psychiatrists at Team Wellness Center / Southgate, Michigan, medicine was only 20% of my whole coping. 80% has been to understand the language, the affliction and to reach out to different therapies not included in my I.P.O.S. You must be-friend your condition and live together. That is the hardest thing to do.
My friend your content is amazing!... it inspired me to microdose in a confident way and I did it while coming off my antidepressants. It was a challenge but because this wasn't my first time doing so it was way more bearable and feel so much better... thank you for your content
You hit on all of the issues/questions ive been having about microdosing. The issue with ADHD also applied with me. I had some really good days after microdosing and some not so much fun days but my ADHD was always still there.
Hey, I'm really appreciating your content. I'm also working with this amazing medicine. Just my 2 cents on this: I also used to suggest 2 grams as a standard, beginner-friendly trip dose. But after assisting and participating in plenty of group ceremonies, I've come to the conclusion that it's better to suggest 1 - 1.5g, and then maybe go up from there on a next experience. I've seen people (some with plenty of spiritual and personal work I might add) completely floored, incapacitated and confused with a 2g dose. Just something to keep in mind. Thank you so much for speaking about these topics!
I'm doing the Day 1 dosing then 2 days of then Dosing again and by the second day of not dosing I'm agitated and angry way faster. My dosing day is my best day. huge contrast between the two. suggestions?
Really helpful and insightful information Julianne thank you for sharing! I am a hypnotherapist and psychedelic researcher in the US and my own regimen has helped a lot
@@humansareokay6870 thank you for your question! Yes hypno is good for cPTSD because it helps you take what you learned from your experiences, let go of the emotional baggage, and lay new pipes towards what you want in life. I also guide ketamine assisted psychotherapy and this hugely helps to melt down the stress and stick reservoirs from trauma. My name is Katie and I work for Forum Health if you’re interested
Thank you so much for this. I do feel i have more to heal than i realized and lately when i microdose i just cry and cry such heavy greif…. I havent taken much care on the “set” part… setting im great at i ALWAYS go into nature…. But ive totally neglected my mind set… which isnt always great… which is why im microdosing in the first place, tryn to rewire my brain and be happier…. but i see now i havent been doing the work to put myself in the proper headspace… im such a pathetic slave to my emotions and to environment…… i didnt realize till this moment that i kinda was wanting the mushrooms to do all the work but what its been doing is amplifying my unchecked depression….. phew. Thank you
I don’t take anything for my mental health other than I do counseling. I really enjoy your videos, they are so informative. What I really love is how you present yourself and the info. Thank you!
I’ve had horrible depression since I was a teen currently I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in October from there I feel like I was running a race!! They had my port placed the following week the started chemo treatments two rounds a 4cycle and a 12 cycle then we did my surgery took both breast and ab 12/15 lymph nodes 35 radiation treatments. We also found a second cancer different kind on my thyroid I’m ab three weeks out from radiation. During this time it spread to my sacrum area in my bone so now it’s metastatic breast cancer. Now i need a rescan and half my right thyroid removed. I can still feel the chemo and the radiation can’t wait to feel normal again!!
I'm coming off of suboxone and am considering microdosing when I'm completely done. I'm down to 2 mg from 22 2 months ago. It's kinda rough but took a shroom trip yesterday. Ate a 1500 mg chocolate bar and felt like shit at first. Then after a couple hours I felt like a huge weight was lifted of my chest, my anxiety from the withdrawl was gone and I actually cracked a smile for the first time in weeks. Slept like shit but wasnt anxious which is one of the worst things for myself. I think I'll just try a couple hundred mg tomorrow and see what that does for me. Thanks for the vids they are Informative and give me hope! ( Canadian also nova Scotian.)
U know I was listening until u said I HAVE to be with myself Taking my first microdose or first three I found that it gave me the ability to be with myself Although moderate panic can definitely play a factor if u try to fight it's effects which I did the fourth time
Great video! You really break down the mechanics of what mushrooms do and how to do them great. I have dealt with a few people not understanding that for them to work, you have to do the work. They only open the door to a happier you. You have to go through it and do what is needed to heal. I would say that suggesting 1-2 G of dried mushrooms is a big gamble seeing as the strain and where they come from plays a big part in their potency and variation in their psychedelic compounds (psilocybin isn't the only one, even though the largest contributor). The market place in California is a little bit different it sounds like though seeing as how yours come with instructions. Again, great video and can't wait to watch the others.
I'm using 0.4gr every 3 days, using it to stop smoking, for me it works, no side effect.... no depressed feelings.... for me.... its made stop smoking easier
I took 25 caps and about 75 stems in one night for my first trip and it was scary 😂... I ended up calming myself eventually with meditation and self help hypnosis, but life is definitely better now than it was before I had that "trip".
I'm microdosing to move past a multi-decade chronic fatigue. It's been great so far (in week #3). I CAN get quick to anger, but I found that because I have more energy (I don't really feel energized, I just don't feel compelled to sleep), I don't recognize that I'm hungry. So I end up hangry! (< about 2 or 3 hours in). So I need to remember eat.
my dealer is the best mycologist plug I've ever seen,he grows the best psilocybin of different strains. Ya'll should go check him on Instagram @fran_sbull
Thank you so much for these educational video’s. I had and still have many questions much of which are satisfied by reading but nothing beats hearing and sharing experiences… so again thank you taking the time to post these :-).
I use the Kiloby Inquiries and find MDing amplifies what I desire to look at: for me, mostly guilt and fear. MDing brings the guilt and fear into awareness and the Kiloby Inquiries give me the tools to look at them.
Thanks for the info. I remember when I took my first microdose about a .3 I couldn’t sleep at all. It was a nightmare. I felt like I was in a dream trying to go to bed but I couldn’t yet still tired. Probably one of the worst episodes of insomnia I’ve had in a while. I took my microdose like at 3pm 😭. This video would Of helped me then but it makes sense. Thanks again.
I'm in Texas. I have to face the issue of law and online scam at the same time... I wish I could move to Canada and live there for one year. Just one year so I can buy legal mushroom and heal myself.😣
@@checkhealingschamponigforp3446 It's hard for me to trust anyone now. For a person with depression and low self-esteem, getting scammed is like being pushed into hell.
I hope controlled studies will be legalized and made available to the deserving public. it has so much promise in the proper setting. I enjoyed it as a late teenage.early 20s It was truly enjoyable and short lived.
Excellent video! You give very clear and concise explanations. I have only macro dosed mushrooms before, always as ceremony, never as entertainment. My belief is that these naturally occurring psychedelics are Mother Earth's way of communicating with us directly. When I have taken them, I see the beauty of Life so clearly and vividly, and the experience stays with me for a long time, I don't need to do it often. Microdosing is interesting to me, I will try it soon. (it's September here in Scotland and that means harvest time!)
damn i was just about to bring acid up when you answered my question. if i were to microdose on shrooms I would need a pretty laid back schedule/lifestyle, but on acid I could see myself functioning pretty well working, cleaning, being creative and just being in the moment without constantly distracting myself with future instances. I'm about to receive just shy of 100 tabs, 125ug each and I plan on trying some microdosing after a couple of standard trips to see where im really at.
9:44 still taking ADD meds... having ADHD my whole life, on spectrum autism, yet never considered getting drugs for it. if you try frequent detox protocol instead, it may show up as interesting resource for you to blog about.
I am so happy I stumbled on your channel! I've been talking about microdosing for a while now and just last night a friend of mine connected me with a credible source of mushroom support. Thank you so much! Subscribed! Can we email you with questions?
How old should I be to start microdosing? I'm 19 right now and I feel like it would be most beneficial to put my development on the right path now as opposed to letting bad habits, anxiety etc become ingrained while my brain's neuroplasticity shrinks.
I would say at your 30s it might be an very good place to macrodose with an ceremonial setting. "Carl Jung once wrote that it is not the young but people in middle age who need to have an “experience of the numinous” to help them negotiate the second half of their lives."
I took 3.5 grams my first time two weeks ago but didn’t experience any hallucinations. I did feel really euphoric any hyper focused. I’m going to try again this week :) before I can give the experience an official review.
I found that since i microdose i more naturally come to mediation. I even did yoga for the first time in my life.... Its an interesting " journey". Oh and the growing is a real cool hobby..
Just came across this channel. You are articulate. Professionally presented subject. I’m trying to gather as much information on this as I can, before I step in. I’m still trying to figure out a source….. thanks for the information.
You gotta check out 1) Psyched Substance Video on Psilocybin. He has a good in depth video and even a video on him doing simple exercises (Catch a tennis ball for example) comparing being High Vs Being On shrooms And 2) GC kID He does more videos on how It feels and how he would use it.
Out of the 50 videos on mushrooms I've watched in the last week, none of them have given me the info that I'm looking for, which is how much to take BY SIGHT. Saying "two grams" or whatever means nothing because I don't know what 2 grams looks like. Show me what the correct dosages LOOKS LIKE. Is it a handful? Is it 2 caps? Or what?
Julianne: I'm really enjoying your videos. ! !! I've recently purchased an accurate scale. 0.000 g. I understand 150 mg is recommended for micro-dosing. So this is my new practice. I have experience with mushroom and other psychedelics over the past 4+ decades. Mostly very positive. benefits I sleep better w mush micro dose. - as along it's taken fairly early and small dose like 150 mg, I rarely do a single micro dose in a 2 week period. Actually my life is very simple at the moment. Pandemic 2021 winding down. I hope you continue with your reporting and inquiry into the micro-dosing subject. In several years we will all enjoy the knowledge we are currently seeking. = in part due to your pioneering commitment. Thank you very much, Please persevere.
I wish we had clinics where people could guide you on your trip in the United States. As of now, We have nothing to educate us before our trips other than google searches and RUclips videos. A lot less would go wrong if we had doctors that we could confidently consult regarding psilocybin
"You can't rely on just microdosing alone to make all the difference in your life" Perfectly said. I feel way too many people think md is a magic pill that will make everything alright for you, and that it should work instantly. Thank you for suggesting meditation too, it is so important to combine the two; a healthy diet and exercise can also compliment md tremendously. Great video!!
With healthy diet and exercise you don’t need md
I'm bipolar, try psych med most adult life, exercise, eat vegetarian and dabble with meditation and still mostly depressed until I tried md with intention, I tried it before the pandemic without intention and it didn't help, now after 5 months I'm more positive in my additude and I pay attention to things I ignored which is a major change in my life and I feel it's just the beginning.
It works for me
I will participate in that study
I agree that without some sort of mental awareness and practice micro dosing is not being used to it's fullest potential.
DMT, LSD, and psilocybin mushrooms are truly remarkable. A few years back, I was grappling with severe depression and mental health issues, and was diagnosed with BPD. It wasn't until a friend suggested psilocybin mushrooms that things began to change for me. It was a lifesaver, and I've been completely clean for 6 years.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire article about psychedelics. They saved you from death bud, lets be honest.
Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? 🙏
Doctor.jeremyy is the person you want. He's the most knowledgeable about psychedelics that I know.
On instgram ??
Yep
Research shows that psilocybin mushrooms have promising results for mental health support, particularly in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety and PTSD.
My recovery journey was supported by the therapeutic benefits of mushrooms.
How to get em?
dr.martinshrooms has got you covered-:(
Can he be on Instgram?
Yes, that’s his name.
I overdosed with shrooms once and cried for three hours. All my suppressed grief came out and it was amazing!!
It happens to me too. In the end, I felt better

Hey Julianne I finished my microdose journey and wow along with meditation I feel like a new person. My social anxiety is gone and its SO EASY to connect with others. I used to be shy and withdrawn but my confidence has been through the roof. My memory has improved and happy memories from the past have also came back. My childhood trauma made life so foggy but these days I have never felt more clarity. I connect a lot more with all my coworkers and have never felt this close to my dysfunctional family. Now I'm going to help my brother by also recommending him the book Complex PTSD by Pete Walker. From that book I discovered another book called Getting the Love you want, which taught me how to actually unconditionally love in a relationship, something I've always struggled with because I was never taught how to love. From there I finished the Tao of Fully Feeling by Pete Walker and for the first time in 26 years, I actually enjoy reading/ebooks. And it all snowballed from YOUR microdosing video that randomly appeared on my RUclips algorithm. so THANK YOU x 100.
Hey Iggy thanks for checking back in! I was so happy to read your report - I basically screenshotted it aha. You’ve made HUGE strides, so quickly too. The way you just kept letting your intuition guide you. Well done 👏🏼👏🏼 (and that inspires me too)
@@JulianneKeu One more thank you for introducing me to the Waking Up guided meditation app! I just subscribed! I was hesitant at first but I think I just scratched the surface on the impact of mindfulness! I’ve been doing quiet 20 minute meditations 6-7 times a week and I’m so excited for what I might learn from this app!!
Amazing - this app really helped me develop a love of formal practice

@@rolandprince1768 you saved your life not the drug.
I have never meditated in my life but in my 2nd shrooms experience i understood the 3rd eye meditating and after got sad at suffocating grass and plants fighting to the surface once i left grass and was back to concreet it just felt plastic
You're good. You should be in high end broadcasting. Too many people make videos who don't know how to relate to an audience. You are clearly highly intelligent, articulate, and thoughtful. Also, thanks for all of this information.
I’m macrodosing right now as I watched this video 😁 sometimes I feel irritated with other people when I am tripping because I feel like they don’t understand what I am feeling and they don’t care, they’re just like “you’re tripping”
I don't know you but you made me feel happy I'm not alone bless up
Of course they dont understand, how could they? But that isnt their fault.
Same here. But the shrooms learned me to just let it be, and see that as training to become more confident.
Why feeling bad because other people have opinions?
after taking 2g lemontek the first time i yawned like craaaazy! felt like alot of negative energies been lifted of me since. it was 40days ago and i had only 1 "down day" since. been depressed for 13years. i recommend anyone struggling with depression to look into it :) keep it up julianne you were one of the reasons i tried it out. so thank you.
WOW!! Keep it up - this is incredible
@@JulianneKeu so you recommend.01 milligrams for a first timer?
Is lemontek the strain?
@@nerad1994 no lemontek is a method where u grind the shroom and put it into fresh squeezed lemonjuice. U let it sink in for 20min and then drink it. It reduces the nausea and it hits faster but also doesnt take that long 3-4hours instead of 6-8hours
Were you on medication for depression when you tried it or no?
In my late teens & 20s my friends and I would do shrooms, Isd, and ecstasy occasionally. Good times!
All were positive, fun, spiritual experiences. But, it's been decades. I don't know anyone who knows anyone who can get psychedelics from. I live in LA & there's a Kush store three blocks from my house, but I can't function alone on weed. I wish they sold psilocybin gummies. I'm a little depressed & a little anxious on a regular basis. I'm not a big drinker and I hate taking pills.
A bite or two of a chocolate bar, or a cup of mushroom tea everyday would be a godsent for me.
I’ve been researching on psychedelics and it’s benefits to individuals dealing with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD and from my findings, they really work and I’ve been eager to get some for a while but its been difficult to get my hands on them.
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I’m now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety due to work stress. Not until I came across a very intelligent mycologist. He saved my life honestly
His name is *DR Adolf Petter*
@ohmakure4716
I feel the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be a part of this community
James Fadiman mentioned that set and setting requirements are really only applicable for macro dose sessions. Obviously, you can't control set and setting quite as well for an extended period of time while microdosing. 'Set and setting' as used in psychedelic science and literature is understood quite differently from something like intentions and expectations, which seem more useful for microdosing. According to Fadiman there is no indication that set and setting (his definition of it) matters when it comes to microdosing. I do think it's practical to differentiate between the two.
Lovely to see these topics receive more and more views. Great video! ❤️🙏🏼 Thanks for sharing your experiences.
this is purely anecdotal, but I have noticed a difference with intentional set and setting while md-ing. I have played with md's for a few years and I have noticed I do better with an hour or two of intentional microdosing, outside, moving (a walk or hike). Or, making art or doing yoga. When I microdose and work, I often find myself feeling uncentered or irritable the following day. It surely could be other factors, but its happened a number of times so I felt it worth noting.
I've been enjoying your videos. My partner and I have been microdosing off and on for about a year. It's been nice comparing my experience with your own personal reports. So that's been really interesting and insightful. I definitely can relate to most of the six topics you listed. Another one that I've noticed is that I can see a pattern with my MD experience. I do 4 on 3 off.. my fist day is usually my best day and that carries over to the second day then I have anger on the third day followed by frustration on the fourth. My next three days are reflecting on my MDing.. my 3 days off are where I feel the absolute best. Like I can feel the benefits. It's been a process. On those tough days I always tell myself it's okay because I'm headed for a wave of feeling amazing. I think the human brain gets suck in unhealthy patterns and when it's going through the positive changes it can be painful. No pain no gain basically. In the long run I've noticed a huge improved in my quality of life. Now I just do boosters when I feel I need it. Which is usually only a 4 day cycle and I'm back on track for another few months. Just thought I'd share that and see if anyone can relate? Thanks again for your lovely videos!
Glad I found your channel. Microdosed once and it was a magnificent few months. Recently tried again and had to quit. Right now I'm navigating through some heartache and the experience this time was just too much.
i don’t get why this channel doesn’t get more views
Slow and steady ✌🏽(but thank you 😊)

What was your spiritual awakening like?
I searched Reddit for weeks and I’ve found more in just this one video. Thank you so much. Trying my first microdose today. Hopefully goes well. Not trying to trip in anyway
Thank you for this informative video. I have been practicing Yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises since I was a kid thanks to my loving and very "Hippy" Mom. I just recently started my micro-dosing journey after losing her to very sudden and aggressive cancer. In her last days, she was micro-dosing to help her deal with her impending death. The effects were amazing and my mother and I spent some time together that I am very grateful for. She convinced me to face my PTSD and spinal pain in a new way without pain killers and anxiety medication. I'm only in my second month but I have been amazed at my attitude and how I am gravitating towards positivity and functionality despite injury and PTSD. I feel alive like when I was young! My mind is focused yet calm. My body is comfortable after 30 years long enough to help reset the pain cycle and allow me to be a better person as a father, husband, and friend. P.S. I have noticed a very different experience based on the strain or type of mushroom. I prefer The Golden Teacher because it helps but it heeps me grounded. I'm not looking to escape my problems so I tend to avoid anything that dulls my brain instead of helping my brain. Best Regards
Still doing good my man?(hell yeah you are im guessing)
This lady definitely knows her stuff! I am currently microdosing and have come across similar suggestions like meditation which is crucial while microdosing. I think it's important to meditate every morning for overall well-being. I do this right after my morning dose to calm me down and let the dose dissolve.
I can also agree with Julianne that for someone with clinical depression (like me) it is important to start taking doses frequently (every other day / 5 days on and 2 days off etc.) instead of the Fadiman´s protocol. I felt I needed help immediately so I started taking it every other day to really feel it and also get the right dose faster. After a month of use I stopped and took a two week break and then started the Fadiman´s protocol with the exact dose that works for me.
I can say that after 8 years on anti-depressants I stopped taking them (didn't help anyway) and cured my depression by microdosing magic mushrooms .. who would have believed it? Is it a placebo? I don't care, it helped me and that's what matters.
The worst PR for psychedelics is the partying and spacing out image it gets from kids mostly. Your portrayal of the real power in change as a self-responsibility is exactly what’s needed to contribute to the “rebranding” of these medicines. As someone who spent years completely sober and meditating, I view psychedelics VERY differently than I did as a 19 year old who only wanted the hallucinations.
@@BloodSweatAndMeth It is the worst PR, as it contradicts orderly legalization efforts when it's looked at as solely for "fun" purposes when in fact a lot goes wrong in those settings with this drug as opposed to a collected thought out safe tripping space. Shut up.
@@BloodSweatAndMeth Your "trippy" playlist shows me that you have no experience tripping. My case is rested.
@@BloodSweatAndMeth You could've done a 3 minute google search, or thought about the subject from a minute change of perspective to realize what I attempt to bring to light.
I think society needs to undergo a shift in mindset. The way the US govt schedules drugs is based mainly on whether or not they have therapeutic. Which is why weed and shrooms have been banned for so long. But now people are starting to wake up and realize that recreational use isn’t necessarily bad.
I took 1g of shrooms, and had a very introspective experience. About 2 hours after consuming them that phase finished and I went to a party and didn’t have more than one beer. My point with that anecdote is that you can get real benefit from it as a party drug AND as a medicine, even in the same trip. And both uses are equally valid. For me, finishing my trip at a party was probably the best possible thing because it ended on a very high note and probably double the length of the afterglow
@@bruhdabones I agree, but you forget to account for the fact that mushrooms are absolutely in no way a party drug, and everyone's individual experience will vary wildly trip to trip, person to person. It is great you had a good experience, but that is not just "the experience".
Waking up is my favourite meditation app! I found it though your videos and it has helped in revolutionizing my life. I just wanted to say thank you. Also thank you for the great content. I know you are busy working on your micro dosing course but I do miss your content.

Thank you so much for this video. I'm a new sub of yours and find your videos immensely helpful! Thank you for sharing your journey and insight. I currently have some issues with slightly more irritability but will probably lower my dosage and keep up on my meditation practice (the hardest part for me). I'm currently going into my 3rd week of micro dosing Psilocybin mushrooms for my mental health and its served me wonders so far. It has opened up my consciousness greatly, from being self judgmental to becoming more aware of my thoughts / actions, becoming observant and compassionate towards myself and others. This is the first time in many years where I am able to have mental clarity and to have the experience of Default Mode Network quieted. Seriously so life changing. Because of your videos I was able to learn about psychedelic integration and what it entails. The integration process has been eye opening, challenging at times but and I am learning everyday! Going into this experiment with an open mind and open heart has been so helpful. Again thanks so much for sharing, Julianne! You sharing your journey is greatly appreciated :)
Thank you for sharing this 😭 I’ve screenshotted your comment to keep for inspo for myself :P hope you don’t mind! I love that even though your protocol isn’t quite perfect - you still have the awareness + intuition to continue down this path. That is seriously so awesome to hear. Best of luck to you on everything to come 🤗
Thanks for making this video! Exactly what i needed to hear. I was literally just talking to some friends last night about microdosing and they were asking how it was going. I told them i haven’t felt much at all from it to be honest. But i know i haven’t been approaching it the right way. I’ve just been taking it and hoping it solves all my problems. Watching this has reinforced my understanding that it really HAS to be coupled with meditation and mindfulness. Thanks again for all your great work on this subject 🙌✌️
What's your dosage protocol? Maybe you need to increase your dosage
@@lightofmylife1616 I’m doing 100mg a day. 4 days on, 3 days off.
@@nwhetz1 this sounds like a pretty robust protocol. Yes, meditation + microdosing will do wonders for you! I believe :)

I am trying first week of MD. I can confirm on the "too high" dose. There is a range for me between MD and a "regular dose" (both for shrooms and lsd) where I feel a bit trippy but more like drunk and tired - not very good for anything other than lying on the bed. Below - I didn´t believe it but it really works - I feel finally motivated to do things, to work, meditate etc! And my mood improved a lot.
I want to use this energy to work on myself

I recently small-dosed (1/6 gram) three days in a row. About 45 minutes after ingestion, I experienced a pronounced relaxation that I haven't felt in years. This was totally surprising. Aside from this, no halucinaginic effects were felt. BUT, I must say, that on day four, the first day after my three days of small doses, I think my dopamine levels were quite low. For that one day afterward, I felt really blasé. Good thing I had that day off work.
Didnt have a tolerance problem?
It feels intense when you take a large amount. Whatever you have stored will certainly come out. Feels scary at first but once you go THROUGH it, it's a sense of relief. Emotional constipation is released
I only have positive side effects at low doses but I could listen to Julianne Keu talk about anything in this tone of voice. Great Video!
shrooms got great benefits.. my whole life feels new again, depression and anxiety got nothing on me..

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING !!!
Make sure all these things are right in you life:
Very regular sleep patterns. Go to bed and get up at the same time every time, even at weekends.
Take regular exercise outdoors.
Eat a really healthy diet and avoid all junk food.
Keep hydrated, all the times.
Avoid intoxicants.
Meditate at least once every day.
Once all these things are in place you can begin your micro-dosing regime.
Also, make sure you aren't sick or feel like you might be sick. For me, it's very uncomfortable to take anything while having even a minor cold.
Agree in many points. And very much wth the: "Psilocybin is NO happy pill!"
Also to mention that some people are very sensitive to psilocybin.
If there is to much agitation and loss of the ability to fokus, I would reduce the dosage.
trying to do mushrooms with a panic disorder is a real pain.
i did truffles in amsterdam, tampanansis to be exact, it was not happy joy joy but it was very insightful
sadly i did an entire weed brownie (yeah i know its stupid of me) about 4 days later
and that gave me a massive panic attack
since then its been really hard to get into shrooms without panicing, i was able to get into a nice place and draw while tripping, that was actually relaxing, but even microdosing scares me a bit.
Yes. Psilocybin opens you up to yourself. If there are parts of you that you don't like yet...you'll be meeting these parts on your magic mushroom journey, no doubt.
Good things to contemplate. I am not a meditator in the classic sense, but I spend 30-40 minutes every morning in my devotion to God. This grounds me and gives me direction for my day. It is God who drew me to microdosing. I look forward to your videos.👍
Hi Mark, that’s wonderful to hear. I would consider daily devotion to be a type of mindfulness-based practice. So in that sense, it is a form of meditation, I would say :). Glad you are continuing to find value from my videos. Thank you for your continued support via these comments
Wish I knew where to get LSD for my focus issues
5g and I purged so many tears. Healed some generational trauma and met my animal family lions, panthers, baby cubs 🦁✨
I’ve found that my happiness comes in the next day after a micro dose and seems to sustain for the next few days.
I found that anxiety would start happening if I microdose too many days in a row. It’s usually the sign that I need to take a 2 to 3 days break.
I also have ADD and micro dosing does absolutely help with that. But my dose is much smaller that what is recommended. I sometimes take closer to 10mg at the start of the day and it works as a charm, doesn’t make me sleepy or anxious. 4 days on 3 days off seems to me the best protocol for me. Thanks for these videos! I don’t know many people who do this :)
Thanks for this comment! I just started microdosing and found even 50mg was way too much. I'm an HSP (highly sensitive person) so I assumed I'd need less, but now I'm dialing it down to around 25mg for only a few days instead of 4 or 5. I am noticing positive effects. Thanks for letting me know I may need even less. Do you consider yourself an HSP? Just wondered what microdosing is like for us more sensitive peeps :)
I start my Micro Dossing journey next week, I'm kind of excited. Practice yoga, love running have and using my creativity really get wait to see how micro dossing fits into my life.

microdosing while running is one of my favorite things
Thank you! I love this channel and it has been a game changer for me. You really helped me get back on track again by introducing me to issues around building up tolerance & stacking. Just like growing mushrooms (which has also been a huge part of my healing process) micro-dosing is as much an art as a science and requires research, trial & error and, most of all, patience. Growing my own mushrooms is now a great source of interest & joy for me. I have a symbiotic relationship with my medicine! Other things that helped me was the realization that capitalism’s insatiable appetite for cheap & productive labor has created a system designed to ensure the vast majority of us are consumed by self-doubt & anxiety. Obviously I have’t escaped capitalism, but this knowledge has helped me keep it in check!
Excellent video! So clearly elucidated! I just want to add that some of us are very sensitive to substances and respond well to 50mg every three or four days. In fact, even that was a bit intense for me from time to time depending on where I was in my healing and just in life.
I look forward to checking out the meditation app. So often people just reference meditation without more information as to type. For those of us who aspire to advaita (nondualist) type of Vedanta meditation, this mindfulness rendition is very different.
Oh yes :) good point. I also second your point about meditation.

WELL SPOKEN TY
In my experience maintaining Dysthymia & A.D.D. and the psychotropics administered to me by various psychiatrists at Team Wellness Center / Southgate, Michigan, medicine was only 20% of my whole coping. 80% has been to understand the language, the affliction and to reach out to different therapies not included in my I.P.O.S. You must be-friend your condition and live together. That is the hardest thing to do.
Hi. I live in canada. Can you suggest places of organized groups please? 🙏🏾🤩
where can I find guided ceremonies?
My friend your content is amazing!... it inspired me to microdose in a confident way and I did it while coming off my antidepressants. It was a challenge but because this wasn't my first time doing so it was way more bearable and feel so much better... thank you for your content

Great video. Nice to see Canadian content on this topic
You hit on all of the issues/questions ive been having about microdosing. The issue with ADHD also applied with me. I had some really good days after microdosing and some not so much fun days but my ADHD was always still there.
Hey, I'm really appreciating your content. I'm also working with this amazing medicine.
Just my 2 cents on this: I also used to suggest 2 grams as a standard, beginner-friendly trip dose.
But after assisting and participating in plenty of group ceremonies, I've come to the conclusion that it's better to suggest 1 - 1.5g, and then maybe go up from there on a next experience.
I've seen people (some with plenty of spiritual and personal work I might add) completely floored, incapacitated and confused with a 2g dose.
Just something to keep in mind. Thank you so much for speaking about these topics!
My first thought was basically everything you just stated. I feel that and agree.

issues?
heh, ok.
been doing it for four years and still can't really think of one i've had myself, but i'm not everyone.
I'm coming off of suboxone and am considering microdosing when I'm completely done. I'm down to 2 mg from 22 2 months ago. It's kinda rough but took a shroom trip yesterday. Ate a 1500 mg chocolate bar and felt like shit at first. Then after a couple hours I felt like a huge weight was lifted of my chest, my anxiety from the withdrawl was gone and I actually cracked a smile for the first time in weeks. Slept like shit but wasnt anxious which is one of the worst things for myself. I think I'll just try a couple hundred mg tomorrow and see what that does for me. Thanks for the vids they are Informative and give me hope! ( Canadian also nova Scotian.)
Thanks for bringing up importance of meditation! You are appreciated. Sending love your way!

U know I was listening until u said I HAVE to be with myself
Taking my first microdose or first three I found that it gave me the ability to be with myself
Although moderate panic can definitely play a factor if u try to fight it's effects which I did the fourth time
Great video! You really break down the mechanics of what mushrooms do and how to do them great. I have dealt with a few people not understanding that for them to work, you have to do the work. They only open the door to a happier you. You have to go through it and do what is needed to heal. I would say that suggesting 1-2 G of dried mushrooms is a big gamble seeing as the strain and where they come from plays a big part in their potency and variation in their psychedelic compounds (psilocybin isn't the only one, even though the largest contributor). The market place in California is a little bit different it sounds like though seeing as how yours come with instructions. Again, great video and can't wait to watch the others.

I'm using 0.4gr every 3 days, using it to stop smoking, for me it works, no side effect.... no depressed feelings.... for me.... its made stop smoking easier
I took 25 caps and about 75 stems in one night for my first trip and it was scary 😂... I ended up calming myself eventually with meditation and self help hypnosis, but life is definitely better now than it was before I had that "trip".
Your videos are so calming. Thank you for sharing!
I'm microdosing to move past a multi-decade chronic fatigue. It's been great so far (in week #3). I CAN get quick to anger, but I found that because I have more energy (I don't really feel energized, I just don't feel compelled to sleep), I don't recognize that I'm hungry. So I end up hangry! (< about 2 or 3 hours in). So I need to remember eat.
my dealer is the best mycologist plug I've ever seen,he grows the best psilocybin of different strains. Ya'll should go check him on Instagram @fran_sbull
This is a well grounded approach for a newbie like me. Thanks!
I cry a lot when I do shrooms didn't know if it was because of depression or my anxiety or my PTSD
Thank you so much for these educational video’s. I had and still have many questions much of which are satisfied by reading but nothing beats hearing and sharing experiences… so again thank you taking the time to post these :-).
Does anyone get really cold during the come up? I feel like I have the damn flu or something.
This video is an excellent contribution to the available information on this topic. Thank you.
@Deborah McCoy do you have a link? I can't find it.
I use the Kiloby Inquiries and find MDing amplifies what I desire to look at: for me, mostly guilt and fear. MDing brings the guilt and fear into awareness and the Kiloby Inquiries give me the tools to look at them.
Thanks for the info. I remember when I took my first microdose about a .3 I couldn’t sleep at all. It was a nightmare. I felt like I was in a dream trying to go to bed but I couldn’t yet still tired. Probably one of the worst episodes of insomnia I’ve had in a while. I took my microdose like at 3pm 😭. This video would
Of helped me then but it makes sense. Thanks again.
I'm in Texas. I have to face the issue of law and online scam at the same time...
I wish I could move to Canada and live there for one year. Just one year so I can buy legal mushroom and heal myself.😣
I got a more reliable source.
@@checkhealingschamponigforp3446 It's hard for me to trust anyone now. For a person with depression and low self-esteem, getting scammed is like being pushed into hell.

I hope controlled studies will be legalized and made available to the deserving public. it has so much promise in the proper setting. I enjoyed it as a late teenage.early 20s It was truly enjoyable and short lived.
Excellent video! You give very clear and concise explanations. I have only macro dosed mushrooms before, always as ceremony, never as entertainment. My belief is that these naturally occurring psychedelics are Mother Earth's way of communicating with us directly. When I have taken them, I see the beauty of Life so clearly and vividly, and the experience stays with me for a long time, I don't need to do it often. Microdosing is interesting to me, I will try it soon. (it's September here in Scotland and that means harvest time!)
Hi, I wanted to ask you if you take microdosages of dried or fresh mushrooms
damn i was just about to bring acid up when you answered my question. if i were to microdose on shrooms I would need a pretty laid back schedule/lifestyle, but on acid I could see myself functioning pretty well working, cleaning, being creative and just being in the moment without constantly distracting myself with future instances. I'm about to receive just shy of 100 tabs, 125ug each and I plan on trying some microdosing after a couple of standard trips to see where im really at.
I was having intense depression, anxiety and anger issues until a friend introduced me to
myco_logan1 on INGRAM who recommended some microdosing capsules,and proper usage menu to me..
9:44 still taking ADD meds... having ADHD my whole life, on spectrum autism, yet never considered getting drugs for it. if you try frequent detox protocol instead, it may show up as interesting resource for you to blog about.
I am so happy I stumbled on your channel! I've been talking about microdosing for a while now and just last night a friend of mine connected me with a credible source of mushroom support. Thank you so much! Subscribed! Can we email you with questions?
It’s better to catch me in the comments section on Sundays (the day I upload) :)
How old should I be to start microdosing? I'm 19 right now and I feel like it would be most beneficial to put my development on the right path now as opposed to letting bad habits, anxiety etc become ingrained while my brain's neuroplasticity shrinks.
19 is okay... I started at 18 tho
What matters is meeting the right person to guide you on dosages to take
I would say at your 30s it might be an very good place to macrodose with an ceremonial setting.
"Carl Jung once wrote that it is not the young but people in middle age who need to have an “experience of the numinous” to help them negotiate the second half of their lives."
thank you, you clear my mind on many things
You can get some really good magic mushrooms from Scottytripz
I took 3.5 grams my first time two weeks ago but didn’t experience any hallucinations. I did feel really euphoric any hyper focused. I’m going to try again this week :) before I can give the experience an official review.
I took 3.5 grams a few weeks ago and nearly went to another dimension it almost felt like. What did you take?
How do you measure out the mushroom to microdose?
I found that since i microdose i more naturally come to mediation. I even did yoga for the first time in my life.... Its an interesting " journey".
Oh and the growing is a real cool hobby..
Check out.,..

They sell the best mushroom, DMT, LSD and other psychedelic products. They ship to all locations
Just came across this channel. You are articulate. Professionally presented subject. I’m trying to gather as much information on this as I can, before I step in. I’m still trying to figure out a source…..
thanks for the information.
You gotta check out 1) Psyched Substance Video on Psilocybin. He has a good in depth video and even a video on him doing simple exercises (Catch a tennis ball for example) comparing being High Vs Being On shrooms
And 2) GC kID
He does more videos on how It feels and how he would use it.
Where can I get shrooms please help
☝🏻☝🏻(profile name) reach out to them, they got all kinda psyche and shrooms too. 🤫🤫
I bought my psilocybin mushrooms from a drugstore online

Out of the 50 videos on mushrooms I've watched in the last week, none of them have given me the info that I'm looking for, which is how much to take BY SIGHT. Saying "two grams" or whatever means nothing because I don't know what 2 grams looks like. Show me what the correct dosages LOOKS LIKE. Is it a handful? Is it 2 caps? Or what?
Julianne: I'm really enjoying your videos. ! !!
I've recently purchased an accurate scale. 0.000 g.
I understand 150 mg is recommended for micro-dosing. So this is my new practice.
I have experience with mushroom and other psychedelics over the past 4+ decades. Mostly very positive.
benefits
I sleep better w mush micro dose. - as along it's taken fairly early and small dose like 150 mg,
I rarely do a single micro dose in a 2 week period.
Actually my life is very simple at the moment. Pandemic 2021 winding down.
I hope you continue with your reporting and inquiry into the micro-dosing subject.
In several years we will all enjoy the knowledge we are currently seeking. = in part due to your pioneering commitment.
Thank you very much,
Please persevere.
What scale did you purchase looking for a Accurate one

500mg is goood
I wish we had clinics where people could guide you on your trip in the United States. As of now, We have nothing to educate us before our trips other than google searches and RUclips videos. A lot less would go wrong if we had doctors that we could confidently consult regarding psilocybin
Very informative and helpful. Thanks for the great vid. :)
