Psilocybe mushrooms are an entheogenic natural medicine that grows in almost every territory around the world. This substance gained international recognition after María Sabina revealed its medicinal, therapeutic and spiritual properties to mycologist Gordon Wasson and his wife in Huautla de Jiménez (Mexico) through a scientific article in Life magazine that was read by millions of people.

With the psychedelic renaissance we are experiencing through clinical trials, what was already obvious has been scientifically proven: the effectiveness of psilocybin, the active ingredient in some types of mushrooms, to access experiences of consciousness expansion and heart opening that free us from destructive beliefs of guilt, unworthiness and self-abuse which are at the root of all troubles. Their use is specifically demonstrated in depression, anorexia or in the grieving process of people with terminal illnesses. The latter is due to the mystical experiences that it facilitates, which return to us the memory of our divine origin in a transcendental connection with the virgin, eternal and vital nature of the Universe.

Doses vary between 1 and 5 grams of dried mushrooms which are ingested with a little water. We have the four varieties of mushrooms with the highest concentration of psilocybin available. It is an experience that facilitates a perfect harmony between inner silence and the joyful euphoria of enthusiasm of feeling alive. It is a lucid experience where you stay conscious at all times.

The medicine is non-toxic and sometimes even removes toxins from the body. It also stimulates neurogenesis and neuroplasticity of the brain. On the other hand, it is not the hallucinations that occur, but rather the veils of stagnant perceptions with which we classify what we see are lifted and reality is presented to us «as newly created», as said Albert Hoffman, the chemist who first synthesized synthetic psilocybin. At the same time, our being also reveals itself to us in all its most sincere and playful expression in a loving embrace of our inner child. It is not for nothing that mushrooms are also called in Mexico “the holy children” or teonanacatl “the flesh of the gods” in reference to their entheogenic character.
