Microdosing for Students & Academics
Being a student is not easy. There is constant pressure put on students yet not a lot of guidance available for those trying to stay on top of the intensity that schooling requires.

Your brain goes through a lot during such extensive studies, doesn’t it make sense to prioritize brain function and brain health? It will most likely make your life in university or college a lot easier. Did you know that microdosing psychedelics is a great way to keep your brain sharp without a lot of negative side-effects that come with other ‘study improving’ substances such as Adderall?
Microdosing is a fantastic alternative that will assist you in staying focused, motivated, and much more. Let’s look at a few benefits one can reap from microdosing that can specifically benefit you as a student.
Microdosing for relieving stress
When thinking about areas of a students life that could use improvement, mental health does not always make it to the top of the list. We know that the fast-paced lifestyle of the student often results in mass amounts of stress. When you are stressed, your work and performance will likely suffer as well. Many microdosing individuals use this practice to successfully minimize or even dissolve general stress that comes from the demanding nature of academics. If you are frequently faced with a lot of stress, microdosing may be something that could work for you.
Microdosing for boosting cognitive function
Cognitive function(s), also referred to as cognitive skill(s), are brain-based abilities or capacities which are needed in acquisition of knowledge, information, and reasoning. This means, our cognitive function is responsible for our problem-solving skills and general reasoning. It also means that we depend on our brain’s cognitive function to retain and obtain new information. This may be the best benefit that a student can reap from microdosing. Taking Lions Mane Mushroom alongside microdosing psychedelics and getting quality sleep may be one of the best ways you can improve your cognitive function as a student.
Microdosing for increasing focus
Student or not, many of us deal with a lack of focus. However, some lifestyles depend on high focus levels to get by. As a student, you are constantly trying to stay focused to ensure you are able to remain productive. In reality, you are a human and you cannot be expected to remain totally focused at all times, Although, it seems as though the academic system urges you to. One of the most commonly reported benefits of microdosing is increased focus. Sometimes it is really hard to get past general brain fog or mental distractions. Microdosing is a great tool to tune out from distractions and tune into a main focus.
Microdosing for staying motivated
Struggles with motivation is a pattern you often notice with students. With a constant flow of assignments, study, tests/exams… no wonder many students feel like simply giving up. Hang in there! Microdosing is an extremely fantastic way to stay motivated. Many academic clients have told us that they only microdose during busy periods as a way to help them remain motivated when they feel like their studies are getting the better of them. In addition, when we feel motivated and/or inspired, we will enjoy whatever it is that we are doing a lot more. When we enjoy what we are doing, we can excel in it with more ease!
Microdosing for enhancing your performance
Enhancing your performance is quite a general statement and is not so straight forward. Some of the benefits above combined can result in a significantly boosted level of performance. When you are a student, your whole lifestyle depends on how good your overall performance is. Taking little steps to improve your performance can go a long way. We believe that microdosing is an effective way to boost one’s performance as it helps in many different aspects that you need to host high functioning performance. Microdosing can also help increase your confidence, which in return can help you perform at your optimal level.
Microdosing for expanding neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to reorganize and form new synaptic connections, especially in regards to experience or learning. When we are children, our brains neuroplastic abilities are extensive. This is why children have sponge-like brains that act with a lot more ease when it comes to learning new things such as languages and adapting to new environments. As we grow older, our neuroplasticity decreases at an alarming rate, making it more difficult to learn and hold new information. Psychedelics in microdoses promote neuroplasticity in the brain, making it easier for individuals such as students to have an easier time holding new information. Because of this, microdosing is also a great tool for studying and taking on new courses.
Microdosing for maintaining wellbeing
The last benefit, yet perhaps it is one of the most important ones for any student – wellbeing. One thing you hear from most students when they leave university or college is that they let their sense of wellbeing go whilst attending their academy. The decline of mental health for students all over the globe is devastating. Approximately 1100 college students in the USA alone die each year from suicide. This number shows us that this is the second-leading cause of death among college students in the USA. These numbers speak volumes for how the academic system can royally fail its participants. Microdosing is a great way to stay in touch with the beauty that life holds. It can offer an often needed fresh perspective on life. The duration of being a student can be hypothetically back-breaking. Maintaining wellbeing is should be a requirement for students, and microdosing is an exceptionally effective tool to do so.
Being a student may be one of the most difficult things you will pursue in life. Know that there are many methods to help keep you sharp and on top of your game. Academics are never easy, but why not try out a few things that could make you and your studies easier? As humans, we all hold great potential. Unfortunately, that potential is not always exercised as much as it should or could be. At the end of the day, you need to do what is best for you and your future. Hang in there and don’t forget that everything is temporary. All of your hard work and determination will pay off. You’ve got this.
Try microdosing today and unlock your full potential.
We are sending you ALL the love & light.
