Welcome to Day 7

Microdosing Foundations

Practical Tips for Grounded Microdosing

Create Ritual, Stay Present, Honor the Process

The Most Essential Place to Start

This isn’t a shortcut. It’s integration and application at its best.

Microdosing is not just about what you take—it’s about how you take it. You’re not here to escape. You’re here to remember, rewire, and reclaim.

Psychedelics can amplify our creativity, clarity, and courage—particularly when paired with respect, presence, and a grounded container.

This is your reminder that subtle work is still powerful work.

Choose a Gentle Day to Begin

Start on a spacious day when you have no major responsibilities or demands. Think: a quiet Saturday morning rather than a stacked weekday full of back-to-back calls.

☑ No driving

☑ No intense emotional conversations

☑ No pressure to “perform”

Let your first dose be an invitation—not an obligation.

Tend to Your Set & Setting

Even with microdosing, how you feel and where you are matters. “Set” refers to your mindset; “setting” is your physical and energetic environment.

Create an intentional space:

Light a candle

Play soft music

Be in nature Most importantly create a safe space. Choose beauty. Choose calm. Your nervous system will thank you.

Morning Is Best

Microdose first thing, ideally on an empty stomach. This can reduce digestive discomfort and support clarity throughout the day.

Morning = alignment

Evening = overstimulation (for many)

Start low and slow. See how your body responds.

Stick With One Substance

When you’re first beginning, commit to one ally—LSD or psilocybin.

Avoid switching between different medicines too soon (like combining psilocybin one day and LSD the next). This makes it harder to discern what’s supporting you—and what’s not.

Give yourself time to build relationship and trust with the medicine.

Feelings May Surface

Sometimes microdosing brings unexpected emotions to the surface. That doesn’t mean something is wrong. It means something is ready to be met.

Slow down

Let yourself feel

Journal or breathe through what’s arising

Reach out for support if it becomes overwhelming

If trauma begins to surface, consider working with a trauma-informed integration guide or psychedelic therapist.

Less Is More

This isn’t a race. You don’t need to “max out” your microdose to receive its wisdom.

Start with 0.05–0.1g of psilocybin and adjust gently over time. Let your body teach you what works for you.

Avoid mixing strong plant medicines (like cannabis or cacao) on microdosing days unless you’re highly experienced and well-supported.

Prioritize Your Safety

If you ever feel overstimulated or accidentally take too much:

  • Ground in your body: put your hands on your heart or belly

  • Go outside for a walk (with a trusted companion, if needed)

  • Use an eye mask and calming music

  • Hydrate

  • Breathe

If you ever feel unsafe, reach out. Support is available. Fireside Project offers free, confidential psychedelic peer support: firesideproject.org

Know Your Source

Please ensure your medicine comes from a trusted, clean, and tested source. Avoid anything that isn’t clearly measured or lab-tested.

Reflect:

  • What makes me feel emotionally and energetically safe enough to explore?

  • What’s one small ritual I can add to my microdosing mornings this week?

  • What boundaries or rhythms support me in staying present?

Anchor:

Revisit your intention from Day 1. Are you honoring it with your choices?
