FAQ
Mushrooms
- Are your mushrooms psychoactive?
Please rest assured, none of our mushrooms are psychoactive. They won't make you hallucinate and in almost all cases they are safe to take.
- Can I take them every day?
Yes, you can take our mushrooms every day. However, we would advice to sometimes lay off for a couple of days. You can do this for example when you start experiencing less effects. We believe it's good to every now and then take no supplements whatsoever and to be just you.
- Can you be allergic to medicinal mushrooms?
There is a possibility, but it's extremely rare. Our mushrooms are in fact allergen free, but as research shows out - anything is possible. If you experience any signs of an allergic reaction please discontinue using immediately. To be sure you can contact your healthcare professional.
- What is mycelium?
Mycelium is a network of thin threads from which a mushroom sprouts. What a root is to a tree, mycelium is to a mushroom. We like to refer to it as the internet of the forest. Mycelium is essential because it breaks down organic material to form building blocks for our ecosystem. It feeds many insects and works together with almost all plants.
- Why is there mycelium in your products?
In the past years we have been experiencing with different brands and different compositions of mushrooms supplements. It seems to be a trend of the recent years to exclude mycelium from the ingredients. Some people may call it a 'filler'. We always experienced more potent effects with supplements which did contain mycelium, compared to those who didn't. For us, a mushroom supplement isn't complete without its roots.
- Can my children take your mushrooms?
In our humble opinion, they can. There is no reason to assume a healthy child aged over 4 shouldn't be taking Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi or Chaga. As far as the general guidelines go a dose could be around 250mg to start with (half a capsule). Always start with small doses and see how they go, especially if they are prone to allergies or just sensitive in general. To be sure you should contact your healthcare professional.
- I'm pregnant. Can I take your mushrooms?
It depends on who you are and who you're asking. Medicinal mushrooms like Chaga, Reishi, Cordyceps and Lion's Mane are generally safe to take during pregnancy. However there isn't a lot of information available and you would mostly have to rely on other people's experiences. To be sure you should contact your healthcare professional.
Gemstones
- How to experience a gemstone?
If you visualize your body as having a hundred chambers, with a gemstone you might experience the feeling of having an extra chamber. In this way the gemstone could provide you with extra space to work in, with feelings or with certain strengths. It will be easier to tap into certain vibrations.
For this to work it is crucial to have an open mind and to be somewhat calm with yourself, or to know yourself. It is one of the gifts of mother earth. We feel that the experienced effects may differ from person to person and from situation to situation. We kindly advice to just try it for yourself.
- How do I know whether a gemstone is real or not?
The best way to tell if a gemstone bead is real or not is to feel the temperature. Gemstone beads should always be cold when they are just laying somewhere. They will heat up while you are wearing them but it will be a lot slower compared to plastic or glass for example. Please rest assured we only sell real gemstones.
- Can anybody wear any gemstones?
It once again depends on who you're asking. Some people say you shouldn't wear certain gemstones together. Others say you shouldn't wear gemstones at certain phases of the moon. We believe anyone can wear any gemstone at any time.* This doesn't mean every gemstone will always work for you. It could very well be the case you buy a gemstone bracelet which doesn't feel right at all. In this case maybe it's not your moment or your stone, and you could give it away or store it for later use.
*Note that some rare gemstones have a really strong effect and aren't suitable for everyone. For now, we don't sell any of these gemstones.
- Are all the bracelets in one size?
We buy all our bracelets in one size. However, because they are handmade, sizes may vary. Typically we see the smaller beads having a smaller circumference, and the bigger beads have a bigger circumference. There is a field called '
