Microdosing 101

Walking with Intention
“The clearer the compass, the stronger the medicine.”
Microdosing isn’t just about taking a small amount of mushrooms—it’s about how you walk with them. The medicine responds to the clarity and care you bring to the relationship.
This isn’t about forcing breakthroughs or striving for perfection. It’s about listening inward, attuning to your own direction, and allowing subtle shifts to ripple through your life in a grounded, integrated way.
The clearer your intention, the more precise the unfolding.
This is where you get to ask yourself:
What’s calling for transformation?
Where am I operating from fear, survival, or unconscious habit?
What kind of life do I actually want to live—and how do I want to feel inside it?
Let this be a practice of returning—not a task to complete.
The medicine meets you where you’re willing to meet yourself.
Your Core Orientation
You don’t need a brand-new intention every time you take your dose.
What matters most is your core orientation—the deeper truth you're choosing to walk toward. A living mantra that grounds your process. A North Star to return to as the journey unfolds.
It’s helpful to phrase your intention in the present tense, as if it’s already in motion.
Why? Because language shapes energy. Speaking from the reality you’re becoming helps your system organize around it. You’re not chasing change—you’re aligning with it.
Here are some examples of core orientations stated as living truths:
“I am attuned to my body and intuition.”
“I live with ease, clarity, and joy.”
“I soften into presence and love with those I care about.”
“I am creatively alive and connected to awe.”
This is the compass you return to. Not something to get “right,” just something to remember.
Then, each dose day, you might set a soft daily intention to tune your field. Something simple and supportive, like:
“Gentle focus.”
“Let me move from my center.”
“Receive beauty.”
“I am safe to slow down.”
The clearer the compass, the stronger the medicine.
Speak from the self you’re remembering—not the one you’re trying to fix.

Altar Setup
If you're spiritually inclined, consider creating a small altar for your journey.
An altar isn’t about religion or aesthetics—it’s a space that holds intention. A physical anchor for your inner work. It reminds your body, mind, and spirit: this matters.
It can be simple and soulful, like:
A photo or object that symbolizes your intention
A small bowl to hold your capsules, chocolate, or herbs
Something from nature—stone, feather, flower, shell
A candle to light at the beginning of each dose day
An altar marks the sacred. It turns your microdosing into a devotional act—not just a habit, but a conscious return to self.
It doesn’t need to be fancy.
What matters is your presence, not perfection.
Tend your altar like you tend your life—with care, with curiosity, with love.
Morning Practice (5 min)
A simple way to anchor your dose and attune your field:
After taking your microdose, sit quietly for a few moments.
Place a hand on your heart, belly, or any place that feels grounding.
Breathe. Feel the medicine entering your system.
Ask: What do I need today? What am I open to seeing differently?
Speak your intention aloud—or write it down.
Offer a moment of gratitude to the medicine, to your body, and to the path you’re walking.
This small ritual helps shift your state from passive to participatory—turning your dose into an active co-creation with life.
