Microdose Mentorship
Explore the healing potential of microdosing in a safe, supported, and intentional 3-month journey.
Why microdose?
Microdosing — consuming a fraction of a regular dose of a psychedelic (ideally, regularly)— is (re)emerging as a cutting edge approach to optimizing well-being. It’s shown to provide a broad spectrum of benefits, including:
Cognitive re-patterning (shifting old thought loops)
Improving mood
Expanding creativity and problem-solving
Increasing energy
Greater presence and connection in daily life
Heightening self-awareness
Improving resilience and coping with challenges
Expanded sense of curiosity, play, and openness
Decreasing inflammation
Many people are exploring this safe, abundant, and magical medicine as an ally for their mental and physical wellbeing.
Psychedelics, when used responsibly, have the potential to profoundly shift consciousness. Microdosing, as Paul Stamets puts it, allows us to “titrate” this power into our everyday lives. Many people use microdosing to boost energy, improve mood, enhance creativity, and address feelings of depression or anxiety.
The Science
Curious to go a little deeper on this?
Understanding how psilocybin works in the brain is where things get really interesting - and for those more rationally minded, can help microdosing make sense.
Here are some of the basics that I find most helpful:
Psilocybin stimulates serotonin receptors in the brain. Specifically, the 5-HT2A receptor, which is shown to trigger some really interesting processes, including:
The downregulation of the default mode network (DMN).
The default mode network is shown to be highly active when a person is oriented internally rather than externally - think, opposite of the flow state. This area of the brain is shown to be highly active in people diagnosed with depression or anxiety, and is where a lot of rumination / circular thinking happens. Activation of the 5-HT2A receptor is shown to lower activity in this part of the brain, which could be why psilocybin shows promise as a treatment for depression.
Increase in global connectivity in the brain.
While quieting the DMN a bit, activation of the 5-HT2A receptor is shown to also enhance connectivity between parts of the brain that don’t usually talk to one another as much! This is why microdosing psilocybin (and/or LSD) have shown remarkable promise for enhancing creative thinking and problem-solving. It helps connect new and novel neural pathways.
This is why many believe psilocybin shows promise as an alternative to SSRIs; depression is correlated with lower levels of serotonin in the brain.
Benefits of a microdose mentorship:
While microdosing alone can bring subtle shifts, real transformation comes when you invest in structure, consistency, and deep integration when working with psychedelics - whether in micro or macro journeys.
It’s not uncommon for folks to nibble off a bit of dried mushroom, or order a month’s supply of an unknown quantity, and eventually give up their microdosing practice with little to show for it.
With a 3-month mentorship, you’re investing in:
Sustained growth: You’ll move beyond “experimentation” into lasting shifts in mindset.
Dial-in support: Custom support on dialing in the right microdose ‘dose’ for you (everyone’s is different!)
Safety: We’ll go deep on contraindications and ensure microdosing is a safe practice for you.
Accountability: I’ll be a partner walking with you the full three months so you stay consistent and committed.
Integration tools: We’ll explore practical ways to translate insights into real-life habits and changes.
Emotional support: Our coaching partnership will be a safe container to process challenges & celebrate wins.
Personalization: The experience will be tailored to your unique goals, lifestyle, and sensitivities.
Invaluable knowledge: After the 3-month experience, you’ll have plenty of tools and knowledge to continue microdosing independently, with confidence, if you choose.
In other words, a microdose mentorship can be the difference between a passing experiment and a transformative journey.
