why did you choose to ingest mushrooms after you gave birth?
Chose to trust myself and intuition. I wanted healthy tools to help me as my body changed and healed again
did you notice any benefits to a) yourself b) to your baby and what were the benefits when ingesting mushrooms while breastfeeding?
My mood, my ability to adapt to change. Change in my body, my mind, my environment, my sleep schedule, my eating schedule. My baby is a premie and I noticed increaed curiosity. Her pincher grab. Mimicking sounds. Responding to her name. Very intent and intense. She is so alert.
Its really helped me connect to my body. Ive only done this during my last pregnancy. My first 2 pregnancies I suffered, I stressed, I held so much anxiety. This led to post partum and depression. Breastfeeding i only lasted 5 months, then 7 months and was a stressful experience. This time I have been microdosimg. We've made it almost 1 year! Huge difference.

I noticed no challenges. Just working through patriarchal beliefs. I really had to meditate and trust myself that this was ok.
