This is actually our first episode we recorded, it was not planned at all, Brittany just grabbed her phone and hit record.
Can a mushroom trip really transform your life? Join us as we recount Brian's profound five-hour journey with magic mushrooms that brought a deep emotional release unseen in our 23-year relationship. We begin with our cautious introduction to psychedelics, sparked by a friend and the rich fungi of Vancouver Island, which led Brian to start microdosing. This new practice significantly improved his mood and patience, especially as a parent.
Experience the emotional highs and lows of Brian's intense trip on blue meanies, a stronger strain of mushrooms. We delve into the importance of setting intentions, the guided visualizations by music, and the profound moments of confronting and healing long-standing personal issues. By bypassing the ego, Brian unlocked childhood memories, confronted feelings of shame, and discovered a deeper sense of self-worth. The surreal experience of communicating with the planet through the mycelium of mushrooms reignited his passion for nature and emphasized the healing power of inner work.
As our journey unfolds, we explore the concept of raising vibrations and using guided psychedelic sessions for personal growth. Sharing our own insights, we underscore the significance of integration and acting on discoveries for continuous self-improvement. Listen in as we discuss embracing new experiences, such as riding a horse, and the evolving path of self-discovery and connection with the world around us.
Our next episode is loaded with lots of shroomy info and a great resource to begin your plant medicine journey :)

2. Responsible Use: While some people explore the therapeutic potential of psilocybin, it’s essential to emphasize responsible use. Always verify the legality of psilocybin in your specific location and follow any local regulations. If you choose to consume magic mushrooms, consider factors like set, setting, and dosage to ensure a safe and positive experience.
