Dosage Magic Truffles

Magic truffles have the power to blend worlds, allowing your subconscious to surf the cosmos. Patterns blend and move to take forms, music is seen as a kaleidoscope of colour and your concept of time is vastly distorted. A four-hour trip can seem like a day. A trip using truffles often provides a unique sense of clarity and profound thinking, which makes it no surprise that it is an increasingly popular way of trying psychoactive drugs. Given that the strength and length of your trip can be managed with a few simple pieces of advice it is a substance that can be enjoyed by many.

If however the concept of bad trips and exploring the furthest reaches of your mind make you apprehensive we have a breakdown of some key steps to enjoying truffles. Including the different strengths of truffles; how to make your own truffle tea and how you can help to manage or spot a bad trip.

WHAT DOSAGE OF MAGIC TRUFFLES?

Choosing the correct dosage of truffle as well as the strength will always come down to personal preference and your experience of tripping. Your current well-being and mood are both significant factors to bear in mind when deciding on the correct truffle for your trip. Tripping on a bad mood is strongly discouraged, remember truffles only enhance the concepts and feelings already inside your mind, if those images are negative then your experience will be negative too.

Here is a list of our Magic Truffles, listed on a scale of 1-5, from being mild to very strong:

• Psilocybe Mexicana 2.5
• Psilocybe Pajaritos 3
• Psilocybe Tampanensis 3
• Psilocybe Atlantis 3.5
• Psilocybe Fantasia 3.5
• Psilocybe Mokum 4
• Psilocybe Pandora 4.5
• Psilocybe Hollandia 5
• Psilocybe Utopia 5

When taking 5 grams of Magic Truffles the dosage is mild in general, but clearly present. With 10 grams it will become a strong experience and with a dosage of 15 grams, you can call it a very heavy trip. Please keep this in mind when taking our 2 strongest Magic Truffles: Psilocybe Hollandia and Psilocybe Utopia. A full packaging of 15 grams is advised to only the most experienced psychonauts!

A good place to start is with a 5-gram dose. Choosing one of the 2.5-3.5 strength truffles from the list above will help ease you into your first trip. This allows you to find your feet and gauge how you will react to the psychoactive experience. More specific information about the strengths and dosages you will be able to find on the product pages of our Magic Truffles.

MAKING TRUFFLE TEA

Incorporating truffles into that classic British pastime, tea can be a great way to ease yourself into consuming truffles. They are not the best-tasting substance in the world and this method can help take the edge off. The dosage largely remains the same so if it is your first trip, stick to the advice above. The only thing to consider is the liquid is absorbed into the body faster than eating truffles so your trip will start and build sooner than if you just ate them.

How to Make Truffle Tea:

1. Cut, break or crush your chosen truffles into smaller pieces. The smaller the better. Not only does this help when diffusing the truffles in the tea but also makes them easier to eat when you have finished your tea.

2. Boil some water, but DO NOT add the boiling water to the truffles just yet. It is worth noting the amount of water you add will adjust the strength of your new concoction. A standard sized mug is a good place to start.

3. Allowing the boiled water to cool slightly, add to your mug of truffles and leave for 10-15 mins. The active components in truffles are broken down by extreme heat so that is why it is important to avoid adding the water when it is boiling.

4. Stir gently and it is now ready for drinking. Sugar or honey can be added at this point to help take the edge off the taste. I would recommend it!

5. For maximum effect make sure to consume the leftover parts of the truffles at the bottom of the mug or cup. All that's left now is to sit back and enjoy the ride.

SETTING UP FOR A GOOD TRIP

A lesson that extends beyond taking truffles, but preparation is key. For the best results when consuming it is advisable to take them on an empty stomach. This allows your body to break down the active substance in the truffles quicker. Once you have chosen your dosage, type of truffle and skipped breakfast you are nearly ready to go. The experience of tripping affects all your senses. Sound, sight, smell and as such your environment is key. For a first time psychonaught, we have some recommendations.

Clear your schedule, you don't want your mum, boss, or significant other busting in on you when your surfing the cosmos.

Pick your setting. Experienced trippers say the park or woodlands are an incredible place to trip. If it is your first time, something as simple as your room or somewhere you know your surroundings is advisable.

Music! The experience of listening to music whilst tripping on truffles is something you will never forget. Picking a playlist that brings back fond memories is usually the best or a personal favourite, melodic dubstep. There are plenty of hour long mixes available on the internet so be sure to experiment and find what you like.

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN TAKING MAGIC TRUFFLES

Now, this is somewhat subjective. Your experience will differ depending on strength and quantity of truffles you have consumed. There are however a couple of experiences or effects that remain generally universal. The easiest way to describe what it is like to trip is by imagining your dreaming but whilst being conscious. Colours explode with vibrancy. Patterns and shapes can morph, taking on other forms and moving across rooms or walls. You will pick up on sounds in places you will never have heard before and even the sounds themselves can seem to take on a visual embodiment, music is truly one of the best things to indulge in when tripping.

One of the truly unique experiences when tripping is the distortion of time. Users often explain how their brain loses that concept entirely. An hour long music mix can seem like a day. Often an 8-hour trip can pass in what seems like minutes but in fact, the day is gone. The important thing to remember when tripping is there are no hard and fast rules. Delving into someone's inner consciousness is going to be different for every person.

HOW TO MANAGE A BAD TRIP

The first step to managing a bad trip is accepting that it will happen at some point. It shouldn't result in an entirely bad tripping experience but more of a cycle within the trip. The way that magic truffles influence our mind and bring out our inner conscious can often lead to fears or concerns being conceptualized, even something as simple as going to the toilet can lead to a bad trip loop. This is where our minds become so preoccupied with the act of doing something, like going to the toilet, that then we then start to imagine all sorts of obstacles and barriers in the way.

The easiest way to think of it is when you are worried about something, that thought can often play over and over in your mind. Now imagine that same scenario but the patterns on the wall are taking shape, and not just any shape but the shape of a person or thing that you are scared of. This is often your brain's way of creating a barrier. Whilst the barrier is just in your mind, the unique characteristics of truffles can bring that barrier to life, tricking you into thinking it exists. One of the best ways to overcome this is simple. Wait. When you start to feel yourself getting into a cycle of worry or concern about something change the subject. In this case, the subject might be the music or something on the TV. Try to focus on positive elements, whether that be something in the immediate area or a positive memory. Finally, don't be worried if you feel yourself slipping into this cycle. Knowing it will likely happen at some point will help you be prepared and even knowing that it will pass will allow you to ride that bad cycle to a strong and enlightening tripping experience.
