MICRODOSING FAQs
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
“Microdosing with psilocybin has benefited my physical, mental and emotional health in unimaginable ways. For over 14 years I was suffering from intense anxiety due to severe childhood abuse and neglect. Unlike pharmaceutical medications which only suppressed my pain, psilocybin helped me to gradually release and work through the enormous amount of grief I was carrying. My passion for painting and writing music has been reignited and I truly feel so in love with life again. I’m transformed in the most beautiful ways. My wife hardly recognizes me compared to 7 months ago.”
– Robert Mcpherron, 34, Tennessee
What is Microdosing?
Microdosing implies taking a very small amount of a psychedelic substance such as LSD or Psilocybin Mushrooms, which can give various health benefits on all levels. It has become increasingly well known as a sacred practice to heal emotional wounds from the past, as well as to assist with personal and spiritual growth.
An average microdose of psilocybin ranges between 50mg and 250mg, compared to a full psychedelic dose of mushrooms which is 2 grams on average. Subtle but profound effects are felt while microdosing, without the individual’s daily activities and responsibilities being disrupted. In fact, most individuals report increased focus, productivity and heightened awareness. We recommend starting slowly with 50mgs or 100mgs. 100mg is a standard microdose which works perfect for most people. If you’re more sensitive, 50mgs could already be sufficient.
Who is Microdosing for?
The minimum recommended age to practice microdosing is 19 years old. Anyone over the age 19 who has sincere intentions of wanting to release emotional baggage from the past, and/or to use psilocybin in a sacred way for personal and spiritual growth, can apply for microdosing with psilocybin. Taking psilocybin while being having been diagnosed with a severe mental health issues such as schizophrenia, may pose risks. We’ve implemented a thorough screening process for this purpose. Please always consult with your doctor in case of doubt.

How do I start Microdosing with Psilocybin?
The first step would be to apply for microdosing, here. This involves an important screening process to make sure that microdosing with psilocybin is right for you. Safety is the number one priority. If you are approved for microdosing with psilocybin, you will be forwarded to a website of a conscious psilocybin supplier that is located in Brazil.
Once you’re in possession of psilocybin, please make sure that your intentions are sincere. Psilocybin can be an immensely profound and beautiful tool for healing and/or personal and emotional growth. Although larger psychedelic dosages can be profound and life-changing as well, we only advocate the completely safe, conscious and sacred use through microdosing.
It’s recommended to start microdosing on a day when you have no responsibilities, especially when you have a day off work. This gives you the chance to feel what kind of effects psilocybin microdosing has, especially when you’re in the process of figuring out the best dose.
Which Microdosing Protocol should I follow?
It’s recommended to start microdosing on a day when you have no responsibilities, especially when you have a day off work. This gives you the chance to feel what kind of effects psilocybin microdosing has, especially when you’re in the process of figuring out the best dose.
The most well-known protocol is James Fadiman’s which involves taking one microdose every three days. The second day you’ll still feel the benefits as ‘aftereffects’ even though you’re not microdosing on this day. The third day you’ll be back to normal. This is a very important day off, however, to avoid building tolerance to the psilocybin.
Another well known system is that of Paul Stamets. He recommends taking a microdose every day for four days in a row, followed up by three days of rest. He also suggests supplementing with lion’s mane on the side because it has the same profound effects of neurogenesis (re-growing braincells) and healing neurological damage, as psilocybin mushrooms.
He also recommends supplementing with Niacin next to lion’s mane and psilocybin mushrooms. This is to ensure that the psilocybin is equally distributed within the system, for the greatest health benefits.
“This unique combination of compounds can be incorporated into other therapies with such combinations providing unique advantages for medically significant advancements in repairing neurons, removing amyloid plaques, improving mental health, cognition, agility, and improving overall the ecology of consciousness.”, Stamets says.
We recommend following the James Fadiman system, but you can experiment what works best for you.
Psilocybin has shown to be very effective at healing PTSD, depression and anxiety. These are often rooted in unprocessed emotions and childhood trauma. It’s important to take enough time and space for yourself as you’re experimenting and seeing how psilocybin works for you.
There’s a possibility that difficult emotions come to the surface, which is a good thing because we can only heal by allowing ourselves to fully feel. Make sure you feel safe and comfortable in the environment where you’re starting to experiment with microdosing. You could also decide to head into nature.
Most people prefer to take their microdosing capsule on an empty stomach in the morning. This ensures that it’s digested as quickly and easily as possible. Some people prefer to take their microdose at night which also works. It’s important to remain conscious of the fact that psilocybin can give a lot of energy, which could cause you to lie awake when taken at night.
Taking your microdose with food in the morning also works, although it’s best to avoid fatty foods. These could weaken the effects. If you’re taking any SSRI or other anti-depressant medications, please make sure you leave three hours in between your medication and the microdose. When in doubt about safety or any interactions, please make sure to consult your doctor or psychiatrist first.
Journaling would be very valuable to keep track of how psilocybin affects you. It can help with processing and healing emotions, as well as to boost your creativity. Once you’re familiar with the effects and have found the right dose, you can safely integrate the practice of microdosing into your daily life to receive its immense benefits.
