After putting yourself in the right “set and setting,” and having a trusted trip sitter beside you, consider how much magic mushrooms you want to take.

3. The following doses are based on dried Psilocybe Cubensis specie of
magic mushrooms.
A threshold dose is around 0.25g and doesn’t create a dramatic
effect. There will be changes in sensation. You’ll feel cold and see
vivid colors.
A light dose is between 0.26-1g and produces stronger effects.
Colors become more vivid and saturated, gaining a “clearness” to
them. This is followed by an intense feeling of happiness called
euphoria. It’s exhibited by giggling or laughing at literally nothing.
There will also be changes in how you hear sounds. You will hear
echoes and even hallucinate noises. If you can eat, your taste buds
become more sensitive and flavors can even change while you eat.
4. A medium dose would be between 1.1-2.5g. These cause more intense
visual distortions. Even if you close your eyes, you’ll see intense
geometric patterns which slide and rotate to form complex shapes.
When your eyes are open, you’ll see patterns on walls, floors and
ceilings which continue to morph.
Trippers report full-blown visuals that
lead to dream-like images. It’s likely for
you to experience changes in thought
patterns that lead to feeling
“enlightened.” Some emotions will feel
magnified and dynamic.
5. These are followed by changes in perception. Most people describe this
having a sense of freedom. Some people receive a burst of creativity
because of thoughts that flow without effort. Sometimes thoughts split
into two separate sequences that occur simultaneously and merge again.
At the medium dose, physical
effects start to show. The least
extreme is nausea for beginners
and trippers with sensitive
stomach. You can also expect your
pupils to dilate, and blood pressure
and heart rate will rise.
