A magic mushroom trip can be an amazing life-changing experience, but it can also go to the other end of the spectrum and be somewhat terrifying, it is no wonder then that many people are hesitant to consume this ancient indigenous medicine.

Today we bring you a way you can prepare yourself if the experience is not pleasant: by preparing a ''Safe Space'', a place where you can go to get your hyperactive thoughts in order, calm down and reengage with the experience in a positive way. Let's take a look at how any psychedelic adventure can benefit from a Safe Space.

It’s also the best way to keep up to date with all the latest news and developments from the scene.  But since there’s an abundance of podcasts out there, we thought we’d narrow the search down for you. Here are our top 6 psychedelic podcasts. 

In this month’s Magic Mushrooms Shop psychedelic profile, we’re going to pay homage to a humble man who has been at the forefront of psychedelic research. We are talking about Rick Doblin, the founder of MAPS, a man that has contributed an incredible amount to the world of psychedelics.
