Taking Magic Mushrooms For The First Time

Taking your first mushroom trip can feel very scary. Many people have experienced life changing healing experiences from dosing or micro dosing shrooms. Others are yet to take the plunge.

Scientific research confirms that psilocybin mushrooms are the safest illicit substance. Psilocybin is safer even than cannabis. Also, magic mushrooms are not addictive. You may want to take them again if you have had fun the first time around.

Read on to discover how to take magic mushrooms safely and responsibly.

Taking Your First Dose

The physical form of your magic mushrooms will affect the dose you may want to take. Also, the type of mushroom will affect your dose too. Psilocybe Cubensis is the most common type of magic mushroom used for tripping.

Use 1 to 3g of dried mushrooms. A dose of 1g is a light dose, and a moderate dose of 3g would be strong enough for first timers.
For fresh mushrooms multiply by a factor of ten. This translates to 10 to 30g of fresh shrooms.
For fresh magic truffles multiply by a factor of five. This translates to 5 to 15g of fresh magic truffles.

It is not a good idea to mix your mushrooms with any other drugs including cannabis, caffeine, and alcohol. You want to experience the pure magic mushroom experience without other drugs infiltrating it.

Your Mindset

Your mind and your thoughts will affect the direction of your trip and greatly colour your experience. This includes your emotions, feelings, thoughts, and any nerves about taking mushrooms.

Have the day before you trip free without any other responsibilities. Use this time to prepare for your trip. This can be done by relaxing, meditating, sleeping well, and looking after yourself.

It is normal to be nervous before your trip. Be open and calm and you will have a smoother ride in hyperspace as you go with the flow. You can also write down your goals for your experience before the trip. This can help you to clear, focus, and balance yourself.

Your physical health is important too. If you feel ill, sick, or unhappy prior to dosing mushrooms then you will feel these manyfold in your trip. So, ensure you have a healthy body and mind before you trip.

Your Environment

Your physical environment and those you choose to spend time with are very important for your trip. All your thoughts, feelings, and emotions will colour your trip when taking magic mushrooms. If you feel anxiety in a new or uncomfortable environment, then your anxiety may increase. So, choose a place that is familiar and safe for you. This also helps you to relax into your experience.

When tripping for the first time we suggest a comfortable space indoors in your home or at a friend’s place. Then set up your space the way you like it maybe with the music you want to play or meditate to, cuddly toys to snuggle into, or trippy pictures to look at.

If you prefer tripping outdoors or feel claustrophobic indoors you will find that magic mushrooms show you how to connect deeply with nature. You will feel connected and nourished by Mother Earth and illuminated by Father Sky. They will be great teachers as will the trees, animals, the wind, the sun, the moon, and the stars too. You will listen to your guides and deeply explore nature on mushrooms. So, choose a good place to go to if you feel you want to experience a trip outdoors. You may consider tripping in your garden, a local nature park, or the wild woods.

Using a Trip Guide

You can ask someone you completely trust who is experienced in psychedelics to be your trip guide. They will stay be you for your whole trip and may remain sober for the duration of your trip. Some will choose to take a lower dose so they can more easily flow with your trip and guide you. They are there to keep you company, support you, or guide you through the whole trip.

Allow Time to Trip

It is best to allocate a whole day for your initial magic mushroom experience. If you take your shrooms early in the day, then the effects will have mostly worn off by late evening. Also, mushrooms are most effective when taken on an empty stomach. The duration of a mushroom trip is between four and eight hours. It takes an average of 30 to 45 minutes to begin feeling the coming on of effects. This could be any time between 15 minutes and 2 hours depending on how you took your mushrooms and how much food is in your stomach.

The trip duration also depends on your biochemistry and the strength of the dose you took. For a moderate dose of 1 to 3g of dried mushrooms your trip duration will be around six hours long.

Also, a psilocybin shroom trip will flow up and down like waves in the sea of your mind. You may think your trip is finished hours later and then be riding the rollercoaster again. Relax and flow with it.

The Mushroom Trip

You may choose to take your mushrooms as mushroom tea, or as shroom chocolates or other edibles. Always allow an hour or two for your trip to begin. Be patient Don’t take more if you don’t feel anything happening. If you do take more then you may feel a much heavier dose if it all comes up at once, more like a tsunami than a gentle wave.

You may feel sickness in your stomach or anxiety when you start tripping as well as when things start changing and moving. Relax and breathe. Visual patterns stand out and start to sparkle, morph, and merge. You may also be smiling like the Cheshire Cat by now.

Remember that a magic mushroom trip can be unpredictable. You may visit other worlds, higher dimensions, astral planes, or/and geometric hyperspace. If you do so, you would have more control over your trip if you took a lower dose. Unless you took too much, you won’t feel trapped in another dimension after going down another rabbit hole. You are the navigator so steer your inner mind, watch the fractal lightshow, and connect with your soul, and investigate your deep fears and desires with a fresh perspective.

If you begin feeling overwhelmed, then take some deep breaths. Use your breath to focus your mind. You are your navigator, and you chose this trip. You could also ask your trip guide to help ground you. Know that all experiences are temporary, so enjoy. Relax into your trip and do what you want to do.

The Return to Reality

A mushroom comedown is when the trip wears off and you return to reality. It is a euphoric afterglow of the experience more than a comedown. Many have experienced pleasant sensations as their magic mushrooms wear off. It feels like entering a warm bath to some trippers. Others feel happiness and joy as they return to the tonal of our familiar world. Many feel that they are in some way enlightened and free to express themselves.

When you chill out for the rest of the day, evening, and night, further insight will come to you. Eat good food, drink lots of water, and make notes about any thoughts or feelings triggered by your trip. Try not to write up too much about the lightshow. Instead, focus on the deep feelings you have experienced in your trip and soon afterwards. It is a brilliant idea to journal what you have experienced in the following days. You may choose to write a story, sing a song, or paint a picture as part of your integration process.

If you feel the urge to make major changes to your life, such as leaving a job or getting a divorce, it is best to sit on it for a day or two until the glow has subsided. Then you are more grounded and surer of what it is that you want. You let the mushroom’s lessons sink in and integrate with your life. This lets you make decisions in your life with more love and wisdom.
