I group the benefits in three separate buckets 1) Performance, 2) Mental health, 3) Spirituality
My personal focus is on mental health & spirituality, but I gladly take the performance benefits too!
1) Performance:
The days feel longer, probably because microdosing will make you more present, more creative and also more focused.
This performance increase was what interested the VC & entrepreneurial worlds in the Valley in the first place
I wrote the first draft of my book “Paris, Mushrooms, and me” in 10 days with total ease.
2) Mental Health:
Clinical trials with psilocybin to treat veterans with addictions, PTSD, depression, anxiety are on-going.
Psilocybin is different from traditional prescribed drugs as it creates new connections in the brain which is called neuro-plasticity. Instead of treating the symptoms, it rewires the brain.
I personally saw great benefits on my mental health, especially when it comes to my anxiety, fears and depressive state. It has removed the 100 kilo weight I used to have in my shoulders and changed the colors of my lenses from black to light pink 😉
3) Spirituality:
Spiritual development is another benefit from microdosing psilocybin.
Microdosing increases microdosers’ awareness, intuition and overall understanding of spiritual concepts.
I feel way more connected to others and also more attune to the world. My sense of compassion towards myself and others has also improved greatly.
I react less and am way more mindful of my thoughts, words and actions.
I focus on what I want to feel and experience versus what I don’t want to feel and experience. It is actually a big shift!
One concept I want to leave you with, which I believe is the most important is intention. If you are microdosing psychedelics or if you are thinking of microdosing psychedelics, know what you want to get from that experience.
For me my intention was very simple, I wanted to get rid of the negativity and conditioning to make space for more joy, and shift my perspective to open myself up to new possibilities. In a nutshell, out with the old, in the new!
This was a very high level view of the benefits of microdosing psychedelics. In the next piece, I will tell you more about my own microdosing regimen.
