Time for a Change

After all this time of feeling better, I no longer feel right continuing my blog as person with a chronic illness. While my condition will never fully be “cured”, I feel like I exist more as a normal, healthy person. With that, I need to change the direction of my blogs a bit to reflect…

One Year Later and Still Feeling Great!

I haven’t posted anything in a bit. For that, I apologize. I’ve been quite busy with life. Especially since I am not sick anymore and I am actually able to be busy all day. It is a beautiful thing. It has been a little over a year since I’ve started experimenting with supplements and mushrooms.…

Vacation, Covid, then Flare

We recently returned from a 10 day family vacation. It was a lot of work, but enjoyable. Of course, I pushed myself too hard and I’m paying for it now. No surprise there. We’ve been back about 2 weeks now and half of us tested positive for Covid. It started with my youngest while we…

Mushroom Journal 2: Microdose Day
Microdose Day… I lost count because I messed up the system the first week. Let’s call this Microdose week 2. I was very much looking forward to taking my dose today. Yesterday was day 3 between doses and I definitely noticed it. I was dragging more. Lacking energy. Very worn out and tired. My head…

Mushroom Journal #1

It’s been about 2 weeks since I’ve started my journey with mushrooms to improve my brain and physical health. I’m very impressed with the results so far and am very intrigued to see what else I can learn! I’ve been taking Lion’s Mane mushrooms for about 2 weeks. This particular blend also includes other known…
