Welcome to our new series, the Psilly Customer Spotlight! We believe the best way to understand the potential of our products is to hear directly from the people who use and love them. We’ll be sharing real stories from real people about how they’ve incorporated Psilly Mushroom Chocolate into their wellness routines.

For our first spotlight, we’re excited to introduce you to Alex, a 34-year-old creative director from the vibrant city of Austin, Texas.

Alex’s story is a familiar one. “I was juggling tight deadlines, managing a team, and under constant pressure to innovate,” she tells us. “It felt like my creative well was running dry, and the stress was starting to feel permanent.” Her evenings were spent trying, and failing, to switch off her work brain, leaving her feeling drained and uninspired.

The Search for a Better Way to Unwind
Like many professionals, Alex’s go-to method for unwinding was often a glass of wine, but it wasn’t a perfect solution. “It helped me relax for a moment, but I’d often feel foggy the next day, which is a killer for creativity,” she explains.

Mushroom Chocolate: A New Perspective on Relaxation

She began searching for a natural alternative—something that could help her create a clear boundary between her demanding workday and her personal time for relaxation and inspiration. Her research led her to the world of Amanita Muscaria.

“I was intrigued, but also very cautious,” Alex admits. “The internet is a wild place. Safety and quality were my absolute top priorities. I probably spent a month just researching different brands, looking for clear lab reports, quality ingredients, and honest, genuine reviews.”

Discovering Psilly: “It Just Felt Different”
In a crowded market, Psilly stood out to Alex for one key reason: transparency.

“So many websites felt sketchy or were making crazy claims,” she recalls. “What I loved about Psilly was the confidence. The third-party lab reports were right there on the site for anyone to see. The ingredients listed premium dark chocolate, not a bunch of stuff I couldn’t pronounce. And the dosing on the package was crystal clear. It just felt professional and trustworthy.”

She decided to try our Amanita Muscaria Chocolate Bar, drawn to the idea of a simple, decadent, and easy-to-dose treat.

The First Experience: A Ritual of Relaxation
Following the “start low and go slow” advice she’d read on our blog, Alex’s first experience was intentional and mindful.

“I took just two squares on a Friday night after a particularly brutal week,” she says. “I put on a favorite record, lit a candle, and just let myself be. About an hour later, I just felt… quiet. The thousand tabs that are usually open in my brain finally closed. It wasn’t an intense ‘trip’ at all; it was this wave of deep, peaceful calm washing over me.”

“For the first time in months,” she adds with a smile, “I pulled out my old sketchbook and just doodled without any pressure or goal. I felt completely present.”

How Chocolate “Changed the Game” for Alex’s Creativity and Well-Being
That first experience became a transformative ritual for Alex. Now, Psilly Mushroom Chocolate is her go-to tool for shifting her mindset.

A Creativity Ritual: “It’s my signal that the workday is officially over,” she explains. “It helps me let go of the critical, analytical part of my brain and tap into a more playful, curious state. My best ideas now come to me when I’m just relaxing with a piece of chocolate.”

A Wellness Alternative: “It’s completely replaced my evening glass of wine. I get that feeling of profound relaxation and a new perspective, but I wake up feeling perfectly clear, refreshed, and ready for the day. There’s no trade-off.”

A Tool for Presence: “It helps me get out of my head and into the moment. Instead of endlessly scrolling on my phone, I find myself more engaged with my surroundings, my music, and my own thoughts.”

Alex’s Advice for First-Timers
We asked Alex what advice she would give to someone who is curious but hesitant.

“First, trust the process and absolutely start with a low dose,” she advises. “You can always explore more later. Second, choose a brand that you feel good about supporting. For me, knowing my chocolate is clean, safe, and accurately dosed makes all the difference. That’s why I stick with Psilly.”
