The choose-your-own-adventure vibes were real as the group explored the property and lounged in the pool all week. There were quite a few mushroom varieties available and many ways to consume including capsules, tea, delicious smoothies, and (my preferred form) dried and natural. It’s not that I “enjoy” the taste of them, per se, but I appreciate what they’re bringing to the table, so I like to have them unaltered. I also like to take little pieces throughout the day, weekend, or event to ramp up slower than eating a gram or two at once.

Before becoming the editor of Fat Nugs Magazine, I worked as a birthkeeper and postpartum care provider for nearly a decade. I still do this work for my community, because it has become undeniable to me that birth and motherhood have innumerable characteristics in common with plant medicines and the shifts they invoke. From the fact that both mind-altering plants and mind-altering birth are burdened by illogical rules and regulations, to the truth that birthing and tripping in captivity amongst strangers is a seriously bad idea; the two worlds are really one, and it’s time to restructure our lives accordingly.

My perspective comes from the knowing that birth itself is a psychedelic trip meant to catalyze families into a paradigm of love, connection, and oneness with the universe, just like mushrooms do. Allow me to explain this through the lens of story and intuitive knowing.

There are a lot of “psychedelic” substances; we’re going to focus specifically on the natural occurrences, like psilocybin and LSD, in this article.
