How to Connect Better With The Psilocybin Spirit Guide

Meeting The Psilocybin Spirit Guide
How to Get The Most of Your Magic Mushroom Experience 

 Plants have been the basis for medical treatments through much of human history, and such traditional medicine is still widely practiced today. Growing up so close to the native reserve I spent a lot of time in the forest. In highschool I started sharing natural alternatives to make up and other products with my friends and when I became pregnant I started my practice as a holistic practitioner. Today, I have been referred to as the Queen of Natural Alternatives amongst our community, which I adore, but the truth is my drive has always been to rebel against the 10 companies that are controlling almost everything we consume. 

Truth is our ill health and addictions are very profitable. The people profiting from this are also the ones responsible for the destruction of our planet, which is stealing our lifeforce and robbing our children from our natural connection to EARTH. Here's what they don't want you to know about Natural Alternatives:

⭐They are more sustainable than conventional 
⭐They are easier to obtain than prescriptions
⭐They stabilize your hormones and metabolism
⭐You have natural healing abilities inside of you
⭐They strengthen your immune system long term
⭐They have fewer side effects, especially as a whole
⭐They are the most cost effective options all around
⭐Plants communicate with your cells, for real
⭐You can make them with very simple ingredients
⭐They often have very simple instructions to follow

The compounds in psilocybin mushrooms may give users a "mind-melting" feeling, but in fact, the drug does just the opposite. Psilocybin actually boosts the brain's connectivity, according to an October 2014 study. Mushrooms are the true communicators of forests. They come in many colors but most often described as brown and blue, that's why my energy was drawn to them! I had a glitch causing me to repeat patterns. Mushrooms help us repair the broken connections and live fully in our truth - first in our own life and then for ancestors, and our own children.

For love and legacy, let's free nature and our minds. This is how we're all communicating now through the internet developed and perfected by guys and girls taking psychedelics for years in Silicon Valley… We are the generation that understands it. The rest are the zombies brushing on the surface of their true potential... This is a fractal existence we are living and we are the priests and priestesses of the new age!

Did you know that psilocybin mushrooms can naturally boost the brain's connectivity, reducing depression and fear while also boosting clarity and self-awareness?. It's true, in fact psychologists say that few things can truly alter someone's personality in adulthood, but psilocybin mushrooms may be one of those things. Luckily for us, at least 144 types of mushrooms contain psilocybin, the ingredient that makes mushrooms "magical" and they literally grow everywhere around the world naturally. You can find at least…


🐒50 species of magic mushrooms in South America

🦎53 species of magic mushrooms in Mexico

🦅22 species of magic mushrooms in North America

🐐16 species of magic mushrooms in Europe

🦘19 species of magic mushrooms in Australia

🐉15 species of magic mushrooms in Asia

🦒4 species of magic mushrooms in Africa


At HIGH doses (2g+), psychedelics like psilocybin can induce mystical experiences. Neural response patterns and brain wave activity are very similar compared to those who are fasting, meditating or having other spiritual/ religious experiences after a single dose. Microdosing (0.05-0.25g) allows you to be an active participant, you can expect: 


😊 Mood enhancement, emotional intelligence

🎯 Decreased stress in all areas of your life

🙏 Mindfulness and peace from the inside, out

💕 Overall increase of empathy and sociability

🗣️ Conversational fluidity, throat chakra opening

🧠 Alleviation of depression, anxiety, PTSD

🔎 Increased focus and productivity long-term

🌊 Increased flow states, transforming additions 

🎨 Increased creativity, tapping into your passions

🤓 Clearer, more connected thinking, mindfulness

😍 Increased enjoyment of everyday tasks

🧲 Amplification of mood, positive or negative


When it comes to dosing, trust the vibes you get, energy doesn't lie. The truth is that psychedelics like cannabis and psilocybin are the most safe substances available today, even more safe than the average 4 cups of coffee people drink on average in a day. To date the estimated total of plant species world wide is about 800,000 and about 120 of them are hallucinogenic plants. There are also many other psychedelics like DMT which come from amphibians and science too. Here are 3 fun facts: 


🍄 Natural alcohols from fermented fruits and grains have been found in archaeological sites (Jiahu village in China) dating back almost 7000 years BC. 

🍄 In Guatemala, fossils of the San Pedro cactus date back 9000 years BC.

🍄 Cave paintings depicting mushrooms are thought to go back way, way to prehistoric times (2.5 million years ago).


Recently, researchers have begun to experiment with psilocybin as a potential treatment for addiction, depression, anxiety and other mental disorders like post-traumatic stress disorder, the research is remarkable!!! Psilocybin is LEGITIMATELY the least dangerous drug available to humans, with a zero percent fatality rate. Even caffeine is ruled far more dangerous than psychedelic mushrooms. As of 2010 study there were a total of 30 million lifetime psychedelics users in the United States, still there has never been a recorded overdose on the majority of psychedelic drugs such as cannabis and psilocybin Mushrooms. In addition, humans have been extensively experimenting with mind-altering substances since prehistoric times. Psychedelics such as cannabis, psilocybin, mescaline etc. are proven to significantly enhance imagination, inspire novel thought, strengthen problem solving abilities, and improve creativity. What’s remarkable about psychedelic studies is that even one dose of psilocybin can create long-term changes, reducing anxiety, depression, and enhancing emotional openness. 


SEVEN FACTORS THAT AFFECT A PSYCHEDELIC TRIP


🍄 Preparation: Before your experience, make yourself aware of the benefits, risks and contraindications. Activities such as self-exploration, coaching, meditation, journaling, intention-setting and holotropic breathwork can help you prepare. 

🍄 Type of Psychedelic: Take time to research different types of psychedelics and their effects.

🍄 Dose: Understand the dose and response time of the chosen psychedelic. A psychedelic trip can last 4-8 hours, or more, depending on the dose and your sensitivity.

🍄 How to Consume: Plan how you will consume the psychoactive substance.

🍄 Mindset: Your mindset, mental state, and intention affect your trip. Grounding your thoughts and mood can improve your experience of an altered state of consciousness.

🍄 Setting: Choose the physical and social environment for your psychedelic experience.

🍄 Integration: Integration and self-care is the key to processing psychedelic trips. It can help to talk through your experience with a guide, as well as free-writing, breathwork, solo walks in nature and mindfulness meditation.


BAD TRIPS ARE NOT A BAD THING!


Bad trips are often much more beneficial than any positive experience since they grant you insights into the aspects of your psyche that you normally avoid. They may give you an opportunity to become more aware of your mortality, show you your biggest fears and the reasons behind them or shed light on your traumas and help you begin the healing process. Like when I coached a young girl on her business who was epileptic, then took a heroic dose and experienced the collective pain of every person who has had a seizure - it was hell, until I chose heaven. Bad trips can also be a result of using psychedelics in an escapist way as a party drug or mixing with other substances thus showing you the unhealthy patterns in your behavior. Anyone can have a bad experience on any substance including air, what's important is breathing through it and growing through what you go through so you don't have to do it again. 


FINAL THOUGHTS 


Yes, it was a struggle for me and my path has been full of scary obstacles, but I always believed that I am worth my dreams which allowed me to own my failures and success with confidence!!! 


Today I can humbly share that in all the ups and downs I am now an author, reiki teacher, psychonaut and homeschooling mom. I hold two masters in coaching & spirituality, I also love to study herbology and permaculture out of pure passion. I have received certifications in nutrition, hormone health and life coaching. I have worked helped develop numerous gardens since sobriety, and before all of this I spent over a decade in the hospitality and tourism industry. My accomplishments listed are just a few things that blow my mind, among others like healing my body, giving birth, traveling... I didn't succeed because of money (i didn't have much) or because I had talent that set me apart (I was called "stupid" countless times as a child), what I did have was a dream, drive, and faith... 


Now I am curious, do you believe you are worth your dreams!!!


My personal dream is to own a homestead that seconds as an Airbnb where I will model permaculture in the warm months and travel with my son the rest of the year. I have this consistent vision of using my Hospitality & Tourism Degree to host retreats on each of the planet's energy centers to help light up this world - and I will settle for nothing less. Here are six last, and also important guidelines to remember during integration; 


⭐When you are Alone, Mind your Thoughts.

⭐When you are with Friends, Mind your Tongue. 

⭐When you are Angry, Mind your Temper.

⭐When you are with a Group, Mind your Behavior.

⭐When you are in Trouble, Mind your Emotions. 

⭐When God starts blessing you, Mind your Ego.
