LEMON TEK

A Sacred Science of Inner Vision

There is a path where the ancient feminine meets quantum biology. Where mycelium becomes oracle. Where lemon is not just citrus, but a key.
This is Lemon Tekking — a practice that gently bridges the mystical with the molecular, guided by the primordial wisdom of the Goddess and supported by the neuroscience of transformation.

Lemon tek is a tried & true method for preparing mushrooms with a bounty of benefits, including alleviating the nausea & upset stomach sometimes associated with ingesting mushrooms. Lemon tekking is achieved by soaking mushrooms (or the contents of your mushroom capsules) in lemon or another citrus juice prior to ingestion.

When combined, the citric acids from the fruit chemically react with the mushrooms, partially digesting their contents& sparing your stomach of extra digestive work (or ache). In addition to a gentler digestive experience, lemon tek also potentiates the effects of the medicine.

RESULT

A faster onset, smoother transition, and often, a more lucid and vivid journey.

View a pdf version of this information

WHOLE MUSHROOMS

Dose mindfully (0.5g – 2.5g depending on experience)
Grind or chop mushrooms finely
Soak in juice of 1 lemon for 15–20 minutes
Drink the lemon-mushroom tea (optionally eat the solids)
Set sacred space. Journey.

CAPSULES

Empty the contents from your mushroom capsule(s) into a drinking glass or cup.
Squeeze a lemon or other citrus juice over the mushroom powder contents until completely covered.
Allow the mixture to sit for 15-20 minutes, stirring or shaking intermittently to ensure the contents are well combined.
Drink the concoction as a shot or combine with warm water & honey to make it a sweet treat or tea. Note: If you add warm water, make sure the water is only warm, not hot or boiling. Add ginger, cinnamon or whatever natural tea ingredients you like to suit your taste.
Drink & enjoy the effects of the medicine.

*IMPORTANT: if you intend a high-dose journey using Mushroom Goddess Packs, you must lemon tek the contents of at least 6 capsules from your pack (the minimum to journey), or the contents from as many as all 10 capsules for a further intensified experience.

SCIENTIFIC NOTES

This particular plant medicine is metabolized into the active compound. Lemon juice may accelerate this process via acidity, resulting in quicker absorption.

Onset: Effects may begin within 15–30 minutes.

Duration: Typically 3–5 hours, often shorter and more concentrated than unaltered ingestion.

Reduced Nausea: Anecdotal and preliminary evidence supports decreased digestive discomfort.
