Your guide
Hi there, I'm Tara. I have been working deeply with Amanita since 2020 when it came into my life to help me own battles with anxiety and depression. She helped me set down my built up fears so that I could face who I truly was and step forward in life with confidence.
I soon realized that my mental health struggles and subsequent connection with Amanita was in no way a coincidence. It was a divine plan by the universe to help me fully understand the vast expanse of the mental and emotional realms so that I could first help myself and then help others on their own journey back home to themselves.
I now find great joy in furthering my relationship with Amanita and being a steward of this sacred medicine.
If you’re feeling the call to connect with Amanita, then you are exactly where you are meant to be and I would love to be a guide on your journey. ♥️🍄
FAQs
Is this session okay for beginners?
Yes. This session is designed for people who are new, curious, or gently exploring plant and mushroom medicines.
No experience is required.
However, if you do have experience with other medicines, these could help me better understand where you are at and if Amanita is a good mushroom to add on or replace your current nervous system supports.
Will I receive a specific dosing plan?
If Amanita is aligned for you, yes. You’ll receive a personalized microdosing plan including dose, schedule, and adjustments for sensitivity.
What if I’m very sensitive or easily overwhelmed?
If so, you are in the right place.
The session is designed with sensitivity in mind: clear, grounded, & pressure-free. Additionally, Amanita is a mushroom specifically beneficial for the energy & emotionally sensitive folks.
Sensitivity is not a problem, it is a gift.
What if Amanita isn't a good match for me?
Then we simply don’t move forward with a protocol.
You’ll still receive a safe space to share your thoughts along with guidance, wisdom, and next steps with other mushrooms or plant medicines better suited for your system.
Do I need to have an Amanita product before the session?
Not at all.
You’re welcome to come without anything. We can discuss sourcing and safety if desired.
What form of Amanita do you work with?
I primarily work with my own fully decarboxylated Amanita muscaria capsules.
It is a product that I have crafted over the course of 3 years using mushrooms that I harvest by hand in the local forests of the Pacific Northwest and then intnetionally process and encapsulate into an easy to dose product.
However, if you already have a product, I can help tailor a protocol using what you have.
Is this a medical session?
No. This is an educational and supportive space that blends nervous system awareness, depth psychology, mushroom neurochemistry, along with safe practice principles.
It is not medical advice.
Is Amanita legal to discuss & work with?
Yes.
Amanita muscaria is legal to possess in most parts of the U.S. and many countries, however, this session focuses on education and support only.
