There are many different Mushrooms with different properties, both in Health benefits and Spiritually. What I have learned from connecting with Mushrooms, is that they give very good Grounding. And used to feel the connection with them, in my Heart. I drank Psilocobyn tea once, and it connected me with my Heart. I have written about that in an earlier post. Now, I will write to You about all the other Mushrooms that I have connected with, how they can help Spiritual growth and what to be aware of.
So, the mushrooms I am talking about is Chineese medicinal mushrooms. There are many different ones, but Ill only be talking anout the ones Ive tried. So I will only be talking about my own experience. I got this mushroom mix once, from my boyfriend, at that time. Which had seven different mushrooms in it. Lions mane, Chaga, Turkey tail, Shiitake, Maitake, Reishi and Cordyceps. I will be writing about all of these later down in this post. After I have told you my story with the mushroom mix. This will be both an encouragement and a warning, because this mushroom mix was very potent, and I did not handle it correctly. What I did was that I asked for the mushroom mix to bring my brain back to a previous state. And the mushrooms did their job, I was just unprepeared for it. And did not know how to handle the things that I went through spiritually. I ended up with having to handle an old psychosis that I have had previously in my life. This was very heavy for me. My boyfriend at that time, showed me that there are many people that have had trouble, after ingesting Lions mane. And it made sense to me, that Lions mane had opened up and old wound for me, and I would have to work through it. I had to turn to traditional medicine though. Which was a bit sad for me, after recently being able to quit all medications completely. But these medications are only for a while, and Ill be able to quit once again. I am careful with Lionsmane though. Since its so powerful like that. Be careful if you decide to use it. Be pure intended. And be aware of the work you might have to go through, if you decide to work with Lionsmane.
Lions mane
This is a mushroom for the brain. It makes your brain grow new pathways in there. And to just friendly warn you, when I started taking it, everything was good. I noticed Grounding, well being, connection with nature, I got messages just through knowing it was a message from Mother Earth. My sensitivity to Crystals was strengthened. When I held a Crystal in my hand, I could immediately feel that it was good for me and how it helped. It turned into seeing signs of things that had been going on in an earlier psychosis that I had. And I turned very ill for a period. I had to get admitted to a psychiatric hospital and I had to start my old medications again. I was very sad about this. Because the sensitivity that I had grown was very much apreciated. But that old wound, from my psychosis, was too much for me to handle on my own. Because I had been on medications earlier, I had asked Lions mane to make me go back in time. Back to the time where I was very much connected to Universe, where I had been connecting with extraterrestial beings, where I had been astral travelling. So when I was at this state, I had not yet come to my psychosis breaking out. So to get to this state, I had to go through my old psychosis, and when I reached this place in my backtravelling in time in my brain, I broke. And had to start medications. So just be aware of this, and be mindful of the power that Lions mane contain. And be careful of what you ask for. I do want to add, medications have for a while now desensiticed me. Feeling my Heart less and less and becoming more like a robot. This has not been good for me. So I started taking Lionsmane again, in a mushroom blend, but only the tiniest amount. And that has again increased my sensitivity to energies. And that I Love, but it can also be alot to handle. So again, be careful with it if You ever decide to work with it.
Chaga
Chaga is a wonderful medicinal mushroom. I used to feel that one in my Heart. I dont anymore, because I am currently on medications, and I dont have that Heart power anymore. But the reason I used to feel it there, is because I have a space in my Heart where forests grow, mountains rise, and a lake stretches in the middle of the valley. I had this castle up with the lake. This was my sanctuary. And the forests, was what I could feel when I drank the Chaga. Chaga is a mushroom that grows on trees. And can be gathered in forests. Otherwise, on medications. It feels a bit like coffee. Its a bit upquickening. But not as much as coffee is. If You drink it with a little bit of salt, it tastes great. A bit like buljon. Its also amazing to have in Your morning coffee, because it kind of calms down the brain at the same time as the coffee is upquickening. So You become calmer awake in the morning. And thats nice I think.
Shiitake
Shiitake I like having together with Cacao. Because the Shiitake brings wellbeing to the body. And also, the Heart opening that You might experience with the Cacao, is brought out to the body, through the Shiitake. Its an absolutely wonderful combination. If You are interested in the most wonderful Heart opener, You can read about it in one of my previous posts. Shiitake on its own, brings wellbeing to the body.
Maitake
Maitake is a wonderful mushroom who brings awareness to Your body. I dont really know how to explain it, other than that You become very much aware of Your body, and feel it very well. You sense it in a way that grounds You in Yourself. And it is a wonderful feeling. With all mushrooms, You can drink it in a ceremonial sense/way. But this mushroom in particulair, might be what I would have recommended for it, especially as a start. Because of the Grounding it gives, in Yourself, and the presence You feel in Yourself. You might feel more and more Ceremonial about it. And from there develope Your Ceremonail ways. Bringing more Ceremony, into Your Life. And that is nice I think.
Cordyceps
Cordyceps, like all of the musheooms, are also a wonderful mushroom to work with. If You invite them in, the Spirits of Cordyceps, they will make You sway. And that is such a wonderful feeling. Making it Ceremonial, listening to Samanic(Shamanic in newer tearms) music, and let them sway You. I highly recommend it.
Agaricus
Something very interesting about Agaricus is that it tastes alot like Psilocybin mushrooms. Like Cubin cubensis. And another thing it might do for You, is that it might make You smile. That it did for me. And it was the most Loving feeling. Because I could my smile just grow in my face. And all of a sudden I was just sitting there, smiling from ear to ear. Lovingly.
Reishi
Reaishi is very calming. It soothes and calms You down tremendously. Much like Chamomile tea, just even more powerful.
All of these mushrooms, and even more, You can mix into beautiful blends of mushroom tea. All depending on what You want Your tea to do for You. A really lovely blend that I would like to reccommend is having Agaricus, Shiitake and Maitake together. You can also put Reishi in, but the three first I would highly recommend You try. Because the Shiitake brings wellbeing to the body, the Agaricus might make You smile and the Maitake brings Your awareness to it. Its Loving, its nice, and it has a good taste. Especially with a little bit of Celtic or Maldon salt in it. Then it tastes a bit like broth.
As I wrote prior, You can use mushrooms for Ceremonies as well. And to me that is wonderful.
Thank You for reading this.
With Unconditional Love and Gratitude.
