To better understand the legality and “grey area” around psilocybin aka magic mushrooms, you’ll need to compare it to Cannabis’ road to legalization. At the moment, the current state of psilocybin is following the same blueprint from decriminalization to legalization. The first state, Colorado lead lead the way with decriminalization of the psilocybin, now we see Washington DC, Oregon state (legalized for medical use), Seattle, Detroit, Oakland, Santa Cruz, and more having decriminalized the substance.

In November, Colorado voters passed Proposition 122, which decriminalized the personal possession, use, and sharing of psilocybin mushrooms. Under the proposition, it is not illegal for people 21 or older to give away mushrooms and operates from a 501(c)(3) donation based organization.

Ikigai operates from a decriminalized zone and still advises that all sales are up to customer discretion and advises customers to be aware of their municipal and state laws.

For the best results we recommend sticking to a consistent schedule. There are many popular schedule formats to follow such as the Fadiman approach of one day on, two days off. What we found to produce the best results overall is low doses for consistent periods of time. For example: 1 capsule everyday for 10 days and then taking 5 days off. Following your body’s specific rhythms and your personal intuitive guidance is encouraged however we understand that sometimes we need help accessing that awareness. Since each and every one of us has a different tolerance level and individual long term goals we highly recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our team members to curate the perfect microdosing regiment specific to your unique needs.

In order to achieve a microdose the suggested dosage is 0.1-0.5g. Tolerance may vary amongst different people so feel free to find what amounts work best for your unique body and experience. Microdosing amounts of our offered products are as follows:

Capsule • 1-2 capsules at 0.2g (200mg) each

A microdose is the consumption of a small amount of mushrooms within the range of .1g-.5g. Microdoses are not meant to get you “high” but are intended to be a background enhancement to your day to day activities. There are no visual distortions or achieving a transcendental state at this dosage. However, when used intentionally, this dosage offers a “lifting of a veil” effect leading to increased focus, creativity and energy. Many have also reported improved mood,better sleeping habits, mental clarity, decrease in stress and anxiety, pain management and lastly, a sense of ultimate presence with your everyday activities.

Although many clients have done so with great success, I am not a doctor and and not trained in pharmacology. If you are taking SSRI’s it will inhibit the effects of plant medicine therefore, I cannot make any recommendations in this field . Always consult your healthcare practitioner if you have any concerns.

Unfortunately, sometimes someone might not tangibly feel the effects of the mushrooms. This is not common but is not unlikely. There are many factors that may contribute to not feeling the effects such as being on medication, weight, diet, current state of mind, openness and receptivity, iron deficiencies etc. This is not something I can diagnose without persistent experimentation but if you are having concerns about this subject a consultation with me may help lead you in the right direction.
