Mushroom ceremony
A mushroom ceremony is performed with psilocybin-containing mushrooms, which are called magic mushrooms or magic mushrooms. Another word for mushroom ceremony is therefore mushroom ceremony.
Magic mushrooms are illegal in the Netherlands.
Because magic mushrooms and mushroom ceremonies are illegal in the Netherlands, we use the roots of the mushrooms, which are called truffles. These contain the same psychedelic substances and therefore have the same effect as the mushrooms. Truffles are only slightly less strongly dosed, so that must be taken into account. The stronger the dosage, the stronger the trip will be.
Psilocybin and psilocin are the main active ingredients of a magic mushroom trip.
During a truffle ceremony, An mushroom ceremony or a psilocybin ceremony In principle, the same active substance is always used, namely psilocybin. Psilocybin is converted by the body into psilocin. Psilocin can then mimic serotonin at the serotonin receptor, called the 5HT2a receptor. The effects of psilocybin/psilocin are caused by the increased stimulation of the receptors.
Due to the structure of the molecule, which is identical to serotonin (the OH group is in a different position), psilocin immediately corrects a serotonin deficiency after ingestion by mimicking serotonin.
A serotonin deficiency causes depression, anxiety, restlessness, cravings for sweets (which can lower serotonin even further), and other ailments. All of this creates a negative spiral in which you are susceptible to unhealthy addictions, and you can hardly escape this negative spiral unless you drastically change course.

By undergoing a psilocybin trip session under guidance, you temporarily increase the stimulation of serotonin receptors, causing the negative feelings associated with a serotonin deficiency to fade into the background. The degree to which we increase this stimulation therefore influences your mood and experience. The intensity of this experience is divided into trip levels.
