Low Dose Experiential Truffle Workshop

Hey! First time psychedelics? But not quite ready for a ceremonial high dose? Or just looking for a light and fun psychedelic infused afternoon? Look no further!

In this workshop, you’ll discover how legal magic truffles work in a safe, accessible, and above all fun way. Without the woo-woo. But with the space to dive a bit deeper and dip your toes in the psychedelic realm.

We’ve put together a varied experiential program for you. And no, you don’t need any prior experience!

GROUP
This workshop is for 6 to 8 participants, always with 2 professional, caring and fun guides.

PROGRAM
• Psychedelics crash course
• Low dose of fresh magic truffles (1 to 5 grams)
• Various accessible exercises (breathwork, meditation, movement, drawing journaling, etc.)
• Mindful forest hike in the Vliegenbos
• Listening session (meditative psychedelic music and/or your own music selections)
• Unlimited tea, fresh fruit, healthy snacks and soft drinks

EFFECTS
The effects can vary greatly from person to person. Psychedelics can amplify your senses, emotions, and awareness. You may feel light and energized, or more grounded and heavy. Mild nausea is possible. Some people feel a little cold at first and pleasantly warm later on.

Sounds and smells may seem more vivid, and you might even notice some subtle visual effects! Colours can appear richer, light may feel more vibrant, and the world can seem as if it is gently breathing. Music can become deeply immersive, and your thoughts may wander in unexpected directions. A tear, a moment of awe, or a burst of laughter can all be part of the experience.

Because the dosage is low, most people remain fully aware and in control. We will be there throughout the experience to guide you and help create a safe and supportive environment.

FOOD & DRINK
Important! Take the truffles on an empty stomach (that’s around 11:00 AM). Please avoid eating a heavy meal for 3 to 4 hours beforehand. This greatly reduces nausea.

We provide fresh fruit, healthy snacks, tea, and soft drinks. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are not included.

You may find it helpful to bring your own food to eat after the workshop is finished.

WHAT TO BRING ☔️
Please bring comfortable and suitable clothing for both indoor and outdoor activities.
Even if there’s a bit of rain, we’ll still head into the Vliegenbos, so wear shoes that can handle a little mud.

Journal, yes please! Bottle of water? Always useful. Umbrella or rain jacket? Smart idea too!

ACCESSIBILITY
Please note that the studio is located on the first floor and can only be reached by stairs.
We’ll also be taking a gentle walk through the Vliegenbos, so please keep this in mind if mobility is a concern.
