Albino
Albino A+ (AA+) is a strain of Psilocybe cubensis known for its distinctive appearance, with pale mushrooms due to their lack of pigmentation, and for its potent and balanced effects. Containing high levels of psilocybin, Albino A+ is prized for its clear and intense visions as well as its introspective and emotionally healing properties. Often compared to a “hybrid” of mushrooms, Albino A+ offers a balanced experience that combines vibrant visuals with deep self-awareness, making it ideal for those looking to explore both the visual and emotional aspects of a session. It is widely used to treat anxiety, depression and promote mental well-being, providing a therapeutic journey rich in insight and mental clarity.
Amanita Muscaria
Amanita muscaria is a species of mushroom with an iconic appearance, characterized by its red cap with white spots. Unlike Psilocybe mushrooms, Amanita muscaria contains active compounds such as muscimol and ibotenic acid, which induce a unique psychedelic experience, often described as a lucid dream or an altered state of consciousness with dissociative effects. Traditionally used in shamanic practices and spiritual rituals by various cultures around the world, Amanita muscaria is valued for its introspective properties and its ability to promote deep self-knowledge and spiritual transformation. This mushroom is ideal for those seeking a more introspective and dreamlike experience, promoting relaxation and exploration of the unconscious. In controlled contexts and under proper guidance, Amanita muscaria can be a powerful tool for emotional healing and expansion of consciousness.
Ayahuasca
Ayahuasca, a sacred tea used for centuries by indigenous peoples of the Amazon, combines the Banisteriopsis caapi vine and the leaves of the chacruna (Psychotria viridis). In healing and spiritual expansion rituals, it is known to induce deep and introspective visions, facilitating access to hidden parts of the mind and spirit and promoting a deep connection with nature and the divine. In addition to its traditional use, Ayahuasca has attracted scientific interest for its potential medicinal benefits. Recent studies indicate that it may help in the treatment of conditions such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The brew appears to promote neurogenesis and synaptogenesis, contributing to the regeneration of brain cells and improving neural connectivity. Compounds such as DMT present in Ayahuasca can modulate mood and reduce depressive symptoms, offering new and promising perspectives for psychedelic therapies in controlled contexts.

While Albino A+ provides a balanced profile of visual and introspective effects, Ghost is more geared towards relaxation and deep self-exploration, helping to relieve stress and promote a stable emotional balance.
Indigenous
The term used to designate the native peoples of a given region or territory, with an ancestral and historical connection to the land and its natural resources. It is the correct and respectful way to refer to these peoples, avoiding terms such as “Indians,” which may be considered inappropriate or imprecise. Indigenous peoples preserve unique cultural, linguistic, social and spiritual traditions, which are passed down from generation to generation. In the Brazilian context, the term “indigenous” encompasses the diverse native communities that inhabited the national territory before the arrival of European colonizers and that, to this day, maintain their cultural identities and traditional ways of life, contributing significantly to the cultural diversity and environmental preservation of the country.

Like “daily medicine,” meditation can improve physical and mental well-being by reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, as well as improving sleep, focus, and strengthening the immune system. By promoting emotional balance and resilience, meditation serves as a powerful tool for self-care and holistic health.
Microdose
These are small doses that do not produce noticeable effects on the individual. In relation to hallucinogenic substances, the microdose is administered at levels that avoid any hallucination experience, allowing only the therapeutic benefits of the substance.
Muscimol
Muscimol is a psychoactive compound found primarily in the Amanita muscaria mushroom and some other species of the Amanita genus. Unlike psilocybin, which is present in mushrooms such as Psilocybe cubensis, muscimol acts on the central nervous system, interacting with GABA receptors, resulting in sedative, hypnotic and dissociative effects. This interaction can induce states of deep relaxation, euphoria, changes in sensory perception and dreamlike experiences, similar to lucid dreams. Due to these properties, muscimol is used in ritual and spiritual contexts to promote introspection, emotional healing and exploration of the unconscious, providing a unique experience of expanding consciousness and self-knowledge.
Mycelium
Mycelium is the initial structure formed in mushrooms, located below the surface and composed of root-like branches. It provides support, fixation and absorption of nutrients, and is essential for the growth of the fungus.

PENIS ENVY
Penis Envy is a potent strain of *Psilocybe cubensis*, named for its characteristic shape, which resembles the male organ. This strain offers profound experiences of self-knowledge and emotional healing. Used in therapies to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD and addictions, this fungus helps to unlock negative thought patterns and promotes greater mental clarity, energy and emotional well-being. Considered the “sativa” of mushrooms, it has a stimulating effect, increasing sensory perception and alertness, without causing drowsiness, becoming a powerful tool for personal transformation and spiritual growth.
Peyote
Peyote (Lophophora williamsii) is a spineless cactus native to Mexico and the southwestern United States that has been used by indigenous peoples in medicinal and spiritual rituals for its psychoactive properties, thanks to its mescaline. Considered a masculine energy medicine, peyote is known to promote an intense and direct experience, aiding in emotional and physical healing, treating depression and anxiety, and developing self-awareness. Compared to ayahuasca, which has a softer, more introspective feminine energy, peyote offers a more confrontational and nurturing approach to healing and spiritual growth.
Psilocybin
Psilocybin is a psychoactive compound found in certain mushrooms that, when ingested, alters perception and mood. Used as a medicine in therapies to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD and addiction, psilocybin, under professional guidance, promotes introspection, relief of mental symptoms and reconfiguration of negative thought patterns. Research indicates that psilocybin may have neuroprotective effects, helping to improve cognition and quality of life in people with Alzheimer’s.
Rapé
Rapé is a powder made from tobacco and medicinal plants used by indigenous peoples of the Amazon in healing and spiritual rituals. Applied through the nostrils, rapé is quickly absorbed, promoting cleansing of the respiratory tract, mental clarity, concentration and deep meditative states.

In addition to its spiritual uses, sananga is valued for its medicinal properties, including antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
San Pedro
San Pedro is a cactus native to the Andes used by indigenous peoples of South America in healing rituals and spiritual ceremonies. Containing mescaline, a psychoactive alkaloid, San Pedro induces altered states of consciousness, providing introspection, spiritual connection, and expanded vision. Like peyote, San Pedro is considered a masculine energy medicine, characterized by its direct and intense approach to emotional healing and self-awareness. It is used to treat mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, and to facilitate reconnection with nature and the inner self. In ceremonies, it is consumed under the guidance of shamans or spiritual leaders to guide processes of healing and personal transformation.
Santa Maria
Santa Maria is an affectionate name used to refer to cannabis, highlighting its spiritual powers and its sacred use in various cultures.
