If you’re keeping an eye on the magic mushroom revolution, you’ve probably heard of microdosing as the up-and-coming psychedelic medicine.

Many microdosers claim that this practice allows them to experience heightened focus and creativity, as well as relief from symptoms of mental illness, including social anxiety, depression and post traumatic stress disorder. With the rise of microdosing as a medicine, a tool, and a “life hack” in both personal and professional lives, travelers have picked up on the practice of microdosing psychedelic drugs.

Microdosing: Dallas, Texas

Want in on the traveler’s microdosing trip? Visit Dallas, Texas. It might seem surprising that Texas is a popular destination for tourism, especially among psychedelic users, but Dallas is a relatively progressive city and is home to countless options for purchasing microdoses and entertaining yourself while you’re on holiday.

Even though the population sits just above 1.3 million, Dallas is one of the well-known, but smaller cities in Texas.

Potential Trips for your Subperceptual Trip

If you’re an adult traveler looking for a wonderful vacation (with an extra boost from a microdose or two), Dallas is the place to be. Even luckier for you, you’ve stumbled upon the best guide to microdosing in Dallas.

At Gwella, we not only educate folks about the healing potential of mushrooms, but we aim to radically improve lives by introducing more people to functional, adaptogenic, and psychedelic mushrooms. We envision a world where access and acceptance of ethnobotanicals and psychedelics is the norm.

Whether you like hiking, sitting in parks, taking historical tours through the city, or visiting haunted places, you can create a great microdosing experience in Dallas.

The city is home to an abundance of outdoor attractions, including urban and suburban parks, swimming pools, and hikes, as well as a variety of interesting districts where you can wander to your heart’s content.

Nature & Microdosing

Some folks love the colors and sounds of nightlife, while others would much rather gaze at the city from a local hiking path. If you’re a nature lover, you might adore going on a wilderness retreat at Cedar Ridge Preserve. One of the most popular walks is a brief 2.5 mile wander through the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, where you can see wildflowers no matter your skill level! There are also a number of more advanced hikes, including the 2.5-hour Cedar Ridge Outer Loop, Escarpment Trail to Cattail Pond, and the Boulder Park Trail.

Whether you're the type to wander leisurely in the sun or you're a hardcore hiker, hiking while microdosing can be a form of psychedelic therapy for the newbie and the experienced psychonaut alike. Remain open minded, build community and be simply curious for the best experience on shrooms.

Nightlife & Microdosing

Events like live music, nightlife, and comedy are also popular in the heart of Dallas, especially in places like the Dallas Arts District. Visit the versatile Citizen bar and lounge for drinks, dancing, mingling and simply existing. You can also find immense stimulation at the CrashedToys event space, where you can wander over 36,000 square feet of built-in bars, outdoor gardens, murals, and video screens.

Whatever you choose, make sure you know how your body and mind react to psilocybin, based on personal psychedelic experiences. The psychedelic sphere can be extremely healing if you follow professional medical advice and enter with a positive mindset, remembering not to limit yourself by creating an idea of exactly what you want to happen.

Festivals, Food & Microdosing

A number of festivals and shows, including the International Food Festival, The Nutcracker, and a sensory-friendly version are available on stage this holiday season! Check out the Dallas events page for event listings and details!

For the “foodie experience,” check out the Upper Greenville neighborhood or South Dallas for a no-frills kind of dining experience.

You can enhance any experience with a psilocybin microdose, but for your own safety and comfort, it’s important to know in advance how your body responds to magic mushrooms. Whatever you choose, you can rest assured that Dallas is a welcoming place for microdosers.

Dallas' Psychedelic Society

Despite the illegality of these drugs, however, the culture surrounding psilocybin as medicine is tangible in Dallas. Clinical trials of psilocybin at John Hopkins University are revealing revolutionary results like “healing trauma and reclaiming mental health,” and places like Dallas Psychedelic Society offer microdosing guidance programs to keep their communities safe and help them heal. There are also a number of online groups that focus on the psychology and neuroscience behind psychedelic substances, so you can learn from peers and experts alike while you’re visiting Dallas.

Magic Mushrooms in Big D

Want to hop on the train of psychedelic healing while you’re on vacation? There are a number of places to buy shrooms in Dallas, but due to the fact that psychedelics are still not legal in the state of Texas, they may be a bit trickier to find than substances like cannabis or alcohol.

You can order online from places like Psychedelics City or the Mushroom Psychedelic Shop, or look around for cannabis dispensaries or smoke shops that sell mushrooms.

Shrooms in the Wild

Alternatively, you could forage for some magic mushrooms of your own, just be careful - picking the wrong one can be deadly.

The most popular psychedelic mushroom that grows wild in Texas is the Psilocybe cubensis, closely followed by the Panaeolus species, more commonly known as the “pans.”

Some of the less potent psychedelic mushrooms that grow in the state of Texas include at least ten species of Gymnopilus and the Amanita muscaria, which is psychoactive, but does not contain psilocybin–meaning you’re in for a very different high that could kill you if you grab the deadly look-alikes by accident.
