Let your heart glow and your energy flow
● Magic Truffles
MindTravellers also offers magic truffle trips. This is a psychedelic journey, called 'psilocybin' journey's. Psilocybin is the active ingredient in Magic Truffles.
A truffle experience is very special. You will hear, see, smell and feel things differently. Often, people experience a strong connection with others, with their environment and with nature. The effects of your psilocybin session may range from mild to very strong, and there is the potential to experience both pleasurable as well as painful, frustrating, fear-inducing and challenging emotions, images, sensations, and thoughts. For all of it, we are with you to help and support you.
Psilocybin is a very effective plant medicine. When you take psilocybin, you can get to a very deep level of subconsciousness. In fact, you do not need Ayahuasca at all for this.
A Magic Truffles trip is sometimes preferred, for people who want are a bit wary of the intense and long-lasting experience that Ayahuasca offers. The experience with Magic Truffles is somewhat shorter and there is less chance of side effects such as nausea or vomiting.
This psychedelic substance enables that you can hear, see, smell and feel things differently. Your brain regions can communicate with each other more freely. This can have a healing effect on conditions such as depression, trauma and addiction.
A commonly used metaphor is; we can think of psilocybin treatment as providing a fresh coating of snow on the mountain. With fresh powder, you have much more freedom to ski anywhere (a greater ability to think freely and tolerate a broader range of emotions). The psilocybin experience can help you find new, different paths down the mountain, finding new terrain and new sights (and a sense of yourself as freer and less constrained by previous thought patterns and behaviours).
We will be available to assist and support you with whatever physical symptoms or psychological material emerge throughout your session.
You may experience the following long-term changes

Go on a Truffle trip and step through the gate to an inner world full of magic!
● Magic Truffles Background
There are an incredible number of different types of mushrooms in the world. Some mushrooms can be used by humans for a psychedelic experience. The mushrooms that are suitable for this are called magic mushrooms. The Indians have known these for a long time, in the western world they were only introduced in the last century.
Since 2008 magic mushrooms are no longer allowed in the Netherlands. What is allowed is Magic Truffles - called sclerotium or philosopher's stones. The effects are the same as magic mushrooms.
There is a large network of fungi in the soil where the mushrooms grow. This fungus has a white, fibrous structure called mycelium. Certain mushrooms produce Magic Truffles there: a compact hard mass of hardened mycelium. Magic Truffles consist of fifty percent water. The end product looks a bit like 'normal' truffles from the culinary world. It tastes a bit like unripe walnut. Magic Truffles are legal. You simply buy them in the smart shop.
The magic truffles we use at Mindtravellers are specially cultivated on bringing up suppressed emotions, so you can heal and process issues from the past. Plant medicines such as magic truffles can show us how to feel and experience, that unconditional love is key to freedom from suffering.
● Why Magic Truffles?
Scientific studies, including a large study by the Johns Hopkins Medical Center in America, show that psilocybin, just like Ayahuasca, also gives very strong visual mystical experiences.
Although we are not allowed to make health claims here, many studies promise very good results in, for example, depression. A study is currently underway at three Dutch university medical centers into the effectiveness of psilocybin in treatment-resistant depression. The results are promising.
Although the subjective effects may be strong, the toxicity of psilocybin is very low.

● What does it feel like?
The advantage of psilocybin is that you have less physical discomfort compared with Ayahuasca. So you become nauseous much less quickly.
Magic Truffles start to work half an hour to an hour after ingestion. The effect is strongest after an hour or two. The entire experience takes three to six hours. Psilocybin is a very potent and effective psychedelic medicine. It can help facilitate deep healing on spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical level. It may cause changes in sensations, thought processes, and emotions. It may lead to changes in your sense of yourself, or your perception of time and even of the nature of reality. It may produce psychological insights that feel completely new and different than your current ideas about who you are or what the world is like. Quite simply, it expands your sense of what life and your psyche can hold. And this creates 'psychological flexibility' - meaning that your way of thinking can become more flexible and less rigid.
We assist you to embrace the experience and learn as much as you can from the experience. You should feel pretty much normal by the time you leave the session.
