About This Event: Psilacetin (4-ACO) Breathwork
Welcome to another Psilacetin (4-ACO DMT) Breathwork Ceremony facilitated by Gabo and Alejandro. Back by popular demand, we will be offering these ceremonies every Thursday evening at the Kitsilano Beach. This breathwork will be a gentle experience weaving storytelling, meditation and rhythm to create a safe container for you to explore the deep wisdom that your body has within it. For those that would like an additional flare to their experience, there will be microdoses of psilacetin available.
What is Psilacetin (or 4-ACO DMT)?
4-ACO-DMT (also known as Psilacetin) is a safe and legal compound that induces effects closely resembling those of the classical psychedelic, psilocybin (AKA Magic Mushrooms). Upon ingestion, 4-ACO-DMT metabolizes into Psilocin in the body, producing effects that can last for up to 7 hours. Numerous reports have favored 4-ACO-DMT, citing its euphoric, gentle, warm, and colorful effects. It is also less likely to cause nausea due to its lower material consumption. 4-ACO is an unregulated substance in Canada.
For those that would like to dose with 4-ACO DMT, a microdose of 4mg will be available which is completely optional. If you would like, you can also order your own medicine here through Dose Osmosis who are kindly sponsoring these events. The breathwork will be an experience in of itself and the psilacetin is there to heighten the experience if desired. If you would like to learn more about psilacetin, please visit DoubleBlind, The Third Wave or Erowid.
