Microdosing: A trend for busy women,
but is there a natural solution?
May 22, 2024
Who’s clocked this new microdosing trend, especially among successful women? Apparently those using it to optimize their performance and well-being are saying it’s all the rage. To summarize, these women are taking very small doses of psychedelics, such as magic mushrooms, to boost focus, creativity, and support emotional balance. The Wall Street Journal recently gave a shout-out to this phenomenon in an article titled “The Working Woman’s Newest Life Hack: Magic Mushrooms”, shining a light on how high-powered professionals are turning to micro-dosing to navigate the demands of their careers and personal lives.
Micro-dosing has seamlessly integrated into the daily routines of many, not just professional women. That said, it seems to really resonate for today’s “working girl” as a unique way to manage all the things in life that might suffer without this support. Executives, entrepreneurs, and stay-at-home moms (let’s be real, that’s more than a full time job!) have embraced micro-dosing as a tool for everything from increasing productivity to reducing anxiety.
That’s certainly impressive and makes microdosing sound pretty intriguing. And, while these “performance enhancing drugs” are gaining traction, we have to read the fine print.
- Legality: Microdosing psychedelics is illegal in most places.
- Safety: Psychedelics can interact with medications and may have unpredictable side effects.
- Limited Research: There’s limited scientific evidence on the long-term effects and safety of microdosing.
- Self-Medicating: Unlike necessary prescriptions, you’re outsourcing your power to be productive, regulated and so forth. Relying on substances diminishes your self-agency.
While microdosing is gaining popularity, it’s not for everyone. That’s why we are ALL IN on natural approaches that provide the same benefits without those pesky drawbacks.
