A new store is selling magic mushroom dispensary in a Winnipeg neighbourhood, one of several dispensaries across Canada challenging laws and policy about the drug. The nurse at this one says the mushrooms help people focus and concentrate, as well as relax. She recommends a particular mushroom based on each customer’s needs. Some of the psilocybin-containing mushrooms in the store are more energy-focused, others offer relaxation and calmness. The store also sells a variety of supplements and other products, such as gummies infused with psilocybin or CBD.

Unlocking the Potential: A Guide to Magic Mushroom Dispensaries

It is important to be in a good state of mind and with trusted friends before taking magic mushrooms, as the effects can be unpredictable or even dangerous, particularly for people with mental health issues such as depression or PTSD. It is also important to avoid taking magic mushrooms with other drugs, including alcohol and some prescribed medications. Mixing the drugs increases the chance of having a bad trip, and it is especially risky for people with psychiatric disorders.

Although a few jurisdictions have decriminalized the possession of magic mushrooms, it’s still illegal to buy them from these stores, and getting caught in the process can lead to serious legal consequences. For that reason, many people prefer to get their mushrooms from local street dealers in places like Vancouver or Toronto, where police are more lenient on cannabis and other illicit drugs. But the stores are making it easier for people to get access, which may be why they’re popping up in places like Osborne Village and Winnipeg.
