DISCOVER THE ESSENCE OF GODS & WHO YOU TRULY ARE WITH AMANITA MUSCARIA

 

 

AMANITA MUSCARIA

 

Amanita Muscaria helps you to move beyond the fear of death, and tap into universal conscious connections
and opens the world of spirits like no other plant or mushroom does.

 

The active ingredient in the Amanita Muscaria is “muscimol”, which is where the name is derived from.
The mushroom is native throughout the temperate and boreal regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
It is one of the most recognizable and widely encountered in popular culture.


You will experience a holistic, integrative healing in the healthy environment, Shamanic based Amanita Muscaria ceremonies, traditional Slavic food that will bring your transformational journey to an optimum level of healing, community-focused activities and heart-based spirituality.

As the retreat progresses, you find yourself on a remarkable journey of healing and learning, cleansing and releasing, and deepening your understanding of what it means to be a human being.

 

 

A. Muscaria could improve your physical and mental well-being. It helps to deal with Depression, Anxiety, Procrastination,

Motivation, Energy levels, Physical strength, Patterns, Sexuality, Emotional sensitivity, Sleep, Physical pain ...

Fly agaric brings healthy sleep rytham and  "wonderland" or lucid dreams. During treatiment - next days/mornings are in sign of good will, enthusiasm, creativity and happiness.

 

 

Fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) was first described by Carl Linnaeus (Swedish botanist and the father of modern taxonomy) in 1753, as Agaricus muscarius, the epithet deriving from the Latin "musca", or "fly", apparently referring to its use in parts of Europe as an insecticide, crushed in milk for attracting and killing flies.

Widespread in north-temperate regions, throughout Europe, Iceland, northern Asia - including Siberia and Korea - North Africa, and western North America. In some places where introduced it is considered a pest species in native forests where it forms mycorrhizas with native trees, including species of Nothofagus, and adversely affects native fungi.

 

Like most Amanita species, as well as a wide range of other fungi, A. muscaria is ectomycorrhizal, forming an intimate, mutually beneficial relationship with the roots of its host trees. In its native range in the temperate northern hemisphere, its hosts include birches and various conifers, including species of Abies, Cedrus, Piceaand Pinus.

 

Its hallucinogenic properties have been well-known for centuries and the species has a long history of use in religious and shamanistic rituals, especially in Siberia. It is a common and widespread fungus, native to much of the north-temperate world, and an important ectomycorrhizal associate of various broadleaved and coniferous trees. Its fruitbodies are also utilised by a wide variety of flies (Diptera) and by some beetles (Coleoptera) as breeding sites.

 

Fly agaric is well known to contain psychoactive alkaloids, and has a long history of use in Asia and parts of northern Europe for religious and recreational purposes. It has also been identified with ‘Soma’, a sacred and hallucinogenic ritual drink used for religious purposes in India and Iran from as early as 2000 B.C., and the subject of a Hindu religious hymn, the Rig Veda. The identity of Soma is controversial but is thought by the American author Robert Wasson to be made from A. muscaria.

 

Fly agaric in higher doses is psychoactive and hallucinogenic, containing the alkaloids muscimol,muscarine, ibotenic acid and muscazone, which react with neurotransmitter receptors in the central nervous system.
