Microdosing refers to the taking or administering of very small amounts of a substance in order to benefit from its physiological action while minimizing any undesirable side effects. A single psilocybin microdose is usually between .1 to .5 grams (less than half of a gram) of dried mushrooms. There is a lot of information online and many recent articles discussing microdosing psychedelics that have sparked the interest of people seeking a way to improve their lives. We will discuss your personal microdosing goals during a scheduled call.

Psilocybin is the naturally occurring compound found in many species of psychedelic mushrooms or “magic mushrooms”. It has been used by humans for millennia in ceremony and as a tool for physical, spiritual and mental well-being, and it has been extensively researched by therapists and scientists. Psilocybin converts to psilocin once it is consumed and induces altered states of consciousness.

Yes. We have been working with psilocybin and clients in Jamaica for over two years and have formulated a highly successful and well-tolerated recipe that includes a small dose of psilocybin. Researchers recently found psilocybin mushrooms to be the least harmful substance, deemed safer than all other substances, including alcohol, tobacco, and even cannabis. Please see the contraindications below for who should not participate. Jamaica does not restrict or regulate psilocybin and therefore allows this. Our mushrooms are grown safely by experts on the island.

Global Drug Survey

Shrooms Are the Safest Drug You Can Take

Our microdose recipe contains less than half a gram of dried mushrooms in each dose. Sometimes participants will take more than one microdose a day. You may take up to a maximum of 3 doses over the course of one day.

We describe it as a ‘glow”, there are no hallucinations or distortion of your senses with microdosing, you will feel something that is barely perceptible and alights your senses.
Macro (or large) doses of 1+ grams of dried mushrooms may cause a psychedelic experience, disorientation, profound introspection and intense emotional experiences.

Yes, we offer macro-dose experiences upon request. Please let us know if you are interested in this option.

Yes. Please note all participants must be over the age of 18.

Once you fill out our application, we will schedule a video call with you in order to establish an understanding of your needs, intentions, hopes and expectations.
Upon screening and acceptance, you will pay for your retreat session, book your flight to Montego Bay airport and await your confirmation & pre-retreat information package.

5 days.

Guests may take our psilocybin formulation every day if they wish. 

Our formulation of psilocybin is 100% natural and specifically balanced with a blend of other natural compounds to interact with the Serotonin Signalling pathway in such as way as to prevent the development of a “tolerance” build-up from daily use, which has been reported from sustained psilocybin use.

People microdose for a number of reasons, such as, improved mood, enhanced creativity, stress relief, neuroplasticity potential, relationship building, anxiety relief, empathy and compassion work, pain and more. Please check out these links for more information

During our free time afternoons, we offer a choice of two wellness programs (ie art making, breath work, hiking, meditation, integration facilitation, etc…). However, if you would like to explore the area, there are rugged coast-lines and secluded beaches, a floating bar for a refreshing juice, and friendly neighborhood hangouts. The South Coast is a vibrant mixture of low-key and get-up-and-go adventures. You can rent a bike, hail a taxi, jump on a boat or head out on foot. There’s history, there’s culture and there’s nature all around. We have a list of suggestions to share and will help you arrange transportation.

We hope that you join us throughout the day as we offer complimentary classes to the microdose experience, however you are welcome to participate as much or as little as you like in our wellness classes. We have designed a program that promotes positive life changes by relaxing the mind and restoring and energizing the body. Our classes focus on natural movements that promote neuroplasticity for the mind-body connection and we offer one on one sessions to discuss your personal goals with our Wellness Director.

No. You will need to book your own flights to and from Montego Bay (MBJ – Sangster International Airport). We provide transportation to and from the airport.

Individuals with personal or family histories of bipolar, schizophrenia, and other personality disorders may be at risk if using psilocybin. A strong psychedelic experience can exacerbate or trigger the onset of these conditions. This is detailed in our screening and application process.

Retreat guests are asked to abstain from alcohol for the duration of their visit with us. We also do not tolerate any illicit drug use.

Ganja is fairly normalized in Jamaica, however, we do not supply any other substances, including cannabis or ganja. Individuals with a cannabis prescription and who are stabilized on their medication may continue to use their medicine as directed and Jamaica has licensed dispensaries for patients. We will discuss your medical needs with you during our screening call.

Guests must obtain their own travel/medical insurance and provide us with proof of insurance once they have booked their trip.

At Rise, we have intentionally formulated a gentle blend of psilocybin and other natural compounds. Our blend was created to interact with the Serotonin Signalling pathway in such a way that prevents the development of a “tolerance” from daily use, which has been reported from sustained psilocybin use. Other microdose protocols do not include our proprietary formulation including natural compounds.
