About Mini-dosing

We are working with a mini-dose: a very mild but noticeable dose of psilocybin truffles. The beautiful thing about psilocybin is that its effects happen in interaction with your own body and mind and are therefore “tailor-made” to you. You can trust that whatever comes, is what is most beneficial to your growth and health at this time. This can include a wide range of feelings and experiences: beautiful, challenging, or both.

The setting of a psilocybin experience is a very important element to making the experience serving for your inner growth. This is why we offer a ceremonial setting with an experienced facilitator, optimizing the conditions for your inner learning with the truffles.

Psilocybin as a Teacher

Psilocybin truffles, like plant medicine, are traditionally seen as “teachers”. Engaging with truffles is very different from taking a recreational drug. Truffles, when taken with a healthy mindset and in a well-guided setting, bring you closer to yourself and sensitize you to what is already present within you. They open the body and mind to balance, inspiration and insight. They can also bring us lessons on how to live our lives more wholesomely and in tune with our true nature.

This is why truffles can be such a beautiful addition to the practice of yoga. It also means that sometimes the experience is beautiful and pleasant, whereas at other times it can be uncomfortable, depending on what the next step in your inner evolution is. Especially in the challenging parts, there can be a great opportunity for inner growth and understanding. In this ceremonial setting, Merel and her assistants offer loving guidance and live music to support you to navigate your inner world in both the beautiful and challenging parts, so that you can derive a meaning from them which you can take into your daily life.

About Your Facilitator Merel

Merel works with the therapeutic effects of psilocybin truffles, having experienced their profound benefits herself for over 15 years. She guides high-dose truffle ceremonies since 2020, in addition to the mini-dosing & yin ceremonies in our school, bringing her instruments and singing to each ceremony.

Her sessions are an invitation to awaken the transforming power of your breath, presence and self-compassion. 

Contra-indications

Truffles are generally safe and no prior experience with truffles or plant medicine is required. However, there are a few situations wherein the use of truffles is advised against. Please read these contra-indications carefully. Let us know in advance of the ceremony in case any of these apply to you, or if you have doubts about it.

Also: If you take any medication, please inform us in advance by email so that we can check if there are negative interactions with the truffles. We will keep your information confidential and only communicate it with the facilitator Merel.
