Understanding the Science Behind Microdosing

Julie Hagen clarifies the distinction between a full psychedelic trip and a sub-perceptual microdose, where one's consciousness remains unaltered. She stresses the importance of trusting the source and dosage when microdosing to avoid unintended effects. 

Julie recounts her struggles with mental health during law school and her early career as a lawyer, leading her to seek therapy and eventually coaching. She found coaching more constructive and aligned with her purpose of helping others. 

A friend introduced Julie to microdosing as a means of personal growth and healing. She explains how microdosing can help quiet the brain's default mode network, which is associated with rumination, anxiety, and depression. 

Julie outlines her 30-day microdosing protocol, which involves setting intentions, journaling, and meditation. She emphasizes the importance of simplicity and tailoring the practice to individual needs.
