Right. And Trump starts caring about the environment. That's just adding one more insult to a stack of insults that's already higher than the Trump tower.

Oh I didn't intend to exclude those. I absolutely agree - 150 micrograms (and up, for experienced users) can absolutely have life transforming effects, if used with the right attitude and careful preparation.

I'd recommend combining microdosing (10 micrograms) with meditation. It can subtly take you to another level. It doesn't however render the "pure" meditation experience inferior.

That's where liquid comes in. Dissolve your tab(s) in (pure!) water (or alcohol), then divide this liquid into as many parts as you need to get to your 10 or 15 micro-grams. But you'll learn all this when you do your own careful r

As far as I know, the concept of homeopathy works on an "information level" (I wouldn't be too surprised if quantum physics are involved), not on the molecular/material level (which microdosing still does).

Sorry, didn't mean to dictate anything. Having had the opportunity to live the perfect experience thanks to this molecule, I simply wish it upon everybody. I honestly want this planet to step out of the shadow and be happy, that's

While I consider microdosing an interesting concept, nobody should miss out on a well planned experience with a normal dose, in your favorite spot in nature, with carefully selected music, in perfect weather conditions. Also, read James Fad
