@Benton - what’s the highest dose you’ve taken?

I was hanging out with Martin Ball for a few hours and we talked about his experience with it. He really enjoyed it and plans to work with it more in the future. He’s on a break from 5 and stronger medicine. He is only working with smaller doses of psilomethoxin and mushrooms from what he mentioned when we chatted.

I’ve taken it numerous times and it does feel different than psilocybin. It feels a little bit like 5 mixed with mushrooms. I get less visuals and it feels a little more energetic based. It’s good for clear thoughts and exercise/activity. It’s also kind of akin to the end of a 5 journey maybe 20 minutes in or so. Went out to their event entheogenesis last month. They were handing it out like candy and everyone was partaking. They’re super nice guys and have a cool thing going. Their chemist explained some of it to us and how it works. Also explained a new way of isolating the molecules that they’re working on. I would definitely suggest signing up and getting some. It’s $55 to join the church and $300 for an oz. It’s totally legal at this point. So why not?

It’s pretty amazing but long and arduous. I personally really enjoyed it but the tiata shaman you work with makes a huge difference. it was a full 12 hour journey for me. Left more questions than it answered but it definitely helped me deepen my path. I can share my 1st trip description if anyone has interest.

I’m working with synthetic 5-MEO-DMT fumarate which is a highly shelf-stable form of this molecule. The fumarate salt takes up about 25% of the weight of the medicine, so dosing should be adjusted downward for anyone using the freebase form, for example 10mg of the fumarate salt form would be approximately equivalent to 7.5 mg of freebase 5-MEO-DMT.” This is unambiguous and is an important safety consideration.

@RamPhoenix thanks so much for sharing your process. These are all really solid, helpful tips. I will absolutely be mimicking this and will get back to you with my conclusions. I’ve got a lot more to share as well. I’ve been having some deep insights and realizations lately.

@halfknots - that’s interesting thanks for the suggestion. I don’t have any knowledge or experience with this process. Have to keep that in mind as I get deeper.

@Thought Art Always a solid plan! Don’t want to go tripping over some shit and hurt yourself or bust something. Also that zen sense of order keeps your focus on the journey rather than thinking about cleaning up your mess. Luckily I have a HiFi commercial space for my journeys that is always spotless. For me the fidelity of your music makes a drastic difference in your experience. Which translates to moving down my own path further. That will be my next post. Is there a best spot to put it? I see you’re a moderator. ps I love that you quoted Bon Iver dm If you want the link to my HiFi space URL Link text Insert into post

I would like to share some of what I’m doing with this medicine and hopefully glean some knowledge from the rest of you. I’m working with synthetic 5meo hcl. Dosing is 10mg-13mg for solo work. I’m experienced enough where I don’t blast off and lose consciousness. I generally start sitting up in double lotus pose. Light some palo santo and then smoke it with a vapor genie. Start my timer and hold as long as possible. I’m working on increasing my awareness and consciousness that’s the reason I’m focusing on my awareness and insights. I’ve already done so much of my shadow work throughout my life. I feel such beauty and comfort with the medicine that this is where I’m at with my process. I’ve cleaned up my diet and food before I go in. I usually eat a few hours before and avoid anything too heavy or slow to digest I have started taking raw ginger before which helps. Ginger lemon tea has been enjoyable as well Not sure how much that is helping. I use an essential oil blend from Doterra called breathe which smells amazing and helps my breathing. I follow a regular yoga practice to wring the tension from my body. Also I’ve become much more adept at single point focus and not concentrating on anything other than the journey I realize the dangers of purging and I have purged once but it was controlled and it was diet related. I was doing a longer string of journeys and was famished. I ate too much right before one of my last journeys. If anyone has some additional safety tips or things that make their solo work better please share. I also hope this can help anyone else on their solo path. ?

Any tips of which cities to go to. Or favorite spots. Sounds like a trip is in order this spring/summer.

@Leo Gura I really enjoy starting a night of journeys with NN and then 5 at the end. The intense visuals and power of NN can be kind of heavy. It’s nice to finish with 5. It softens the blow and feels like you’re coming home. 5 is so comfortable and beautiful it was really soothing after seeing the machine elves.
