Space Smoothie

I didn't make food post on Hive for a really long period. I only posted some food photos that I made for some restaurant but not the food that I prepare & consume. Anyway, I believe that cooking is also art so I decided to document my yesterday's breakfast cause it was indeed very special in many different ways.

This article presents a super healthy smoothie & the process of making it & the benefits that can bring to human beings in both physical & mental sense.

On the 1st shot you can see most of the ingredients that I combined together in this special drink. I forgot to ad almonds in the 1st shot but later on I really used almonds too.

Natural not sprayed lemon from Komiža, Vis, Croatia, special honey from Opatija, Croatia, special ayurvedic powder mix from Art Of Living temple in Bangalore, India, 4 different special mushrooms that I hand picked in Croatia, dandelion root I grown & picked in my garden, ashwagandha root from Rishikesh, India, banana & half apple from the supermarket in Croatia

This year I was also spending many days in Croatian forests hunting for mushrooms. I found some that I was searching for many, many years, both medicinal & psychedelic & also learned how to prepare some of them for human consumption. Most of these fungi I dried to preserve them for later cause it would be too much to eat them all at once.

These 6 details are the most important active ingredients in this drink.
In the upper left corner lies coral tooth fungus, up in the middle Reishi, on the right Psilocybe serbica, under it Amanita muscaria, in the middle down ashwagandha root, left down is dandelion root.

All the mushrooms I found & picked personally in different forests around Croatia & different periods of time. I started cutting the ashwagandha root firstly cause it is the hardest of all substances & apparently very healthy. I never made a research about it but I believe the words of many other people. Later on I realized that cutting this root could be easier if I just made it soak in water or lemon juice. So, if you are using dry ashwagandha root make it soak first & cut later!

For cutting it I used this serrated knife to make the cutting more efficient.

Soon after realizing how hard is to cut dried ashwagandha root, I put it in the lemon juice to soak to make it softer & easier to cut. Of course that before I squeezed out the juice. I only buy & consume lemons & other citrus fruit which are strictly not sprayed & not coming from huge monoculture orchards where the fruits are always sprayed even in so-called eco agriculture. I ordered these lemons from Komiža, Vis, Croatia, from a private family garden where they have only few trees which give them a lot of fruits every year without spraying so they decided to sell a bit cause they don't need so much for themselves. I do not need to say more about lemon & its medicinal properties cause we are all familiar with that! Vitamin C is crucial!

Dandelion root & dried Amanita muscaria I cooked for a while.

As I've been exploring about the dandelion I learnt how medicinal is that simple wild plant. In my garden it grows naturally & I don't destroy it. I use the leaves for salad very often & in spring & autumn I dig out the roots, dry them & preserve them for tea. The tea is not really tasty but you can make it more tasty by adding other ingredients like sugar or honey or some plant based syrups. This time I was mixing it with many other ingredients so its ugly taste was covered. The studies have shown that dandelion has so many medicinal properties & dandelion root tea improves digestion & helps the absorption of micro & macro elements from the food we eat. It also removes cholesterol from blood. It needs to be cooked for 10-15 min.

Amanita muscaria is one of the most powerful magic & medicinal mushrooms which was lied about by the establishment turning it into the poisonous mushroom for centuries now. Even I was tricked & fooled by books & other scientific sources explaining how Amanita muscaria is poisonous & should not be consumed in any way. But these are all lies! Amanita muscaria is one of the best painkillers in this world. It is also a sedative & helps with insomnia. If you feel nervous, it definitely calms you down. It also improves the focus. In higher heroic shamanic dosages it can give you various insights, carrying you deep inside yourself, confronting you with your ego, making you introspect & retrospect your past life, where you are in the present & giving you the easier way of finding your true path into the future. & much more!

If you do not believe me, make your own research about it & you can start with two beautiful women, one American - Amanita Dreamer; & one Russian - Baba Masha.

I added both dandelion & fly agaric together in already a bit warm water & left them slightly boiling 10-15 min.

While ashwagandha was soaking & the tea was boiling, I continued to cut other ingredient, also dried mushrooms. First I had more hard cutting fun with Reishi. Reishi is also highly medicinal fungi which was introduced to us by Chinese traditional medicine (or at least we know it from there cause we have forgotten about our own ancient knowledge or what I believe that our world was always global, so the ancient knowledge was actually spread equally all over our beautiful realm Mother Earth & was known as Universal Knowledge). Reishi in Latin is named Ganoderma lucidum so you can also make your own deeper & wider research about it cause it will definitely serve you well! It is appreciated cause it slows down the process of aging. It rejuvenates the cells & the body not letting the malicious cells to develop & also stopping tumors to grow & even reverse the process & make them smaller to the point where they disappear!

Reishi is really tough to cut too. Next time I will also soak it!

Serrated knife acts like a saw in the cutting process.

The last fungi but of same importance is Hericium coralloides or better known as coral tooth fungus. It has the same medicinal properties as lion's mane & was also introduced to us from Chinese traditional medicine. It's most important benefit is making brain cells grow & rejuvenating the brain helping us to function better in many ways. It helps with many neuro diseases which come with age but it's not bad to start taking sooner to slow down, postpone or even totally cancel any possibility of Alzheimer, Parkins or dementia... There are more benefits! Make your own research

I crushed the coral tooth by pressing it with the knife.

Aswagandha, reishi & coral tooth shredded all together

Shredded like that I threw them on the bottom of the big glass jar. There are 2 pieces of Psilocybe serbica that I almost forgot to write about.

Psilocybe serbica is another magic mushroom in this recipe & mostly cause of it I named this smoothie as space smoothie. This mushroom gives more insight to your inner self & the connection what you have with the outer world. It is a cure for depression too in micro dosing but can also be used for rituals where in higher dose can give you psychedelic visions almost completely changing your view of the realm or the 3D physical reality that our bodies are made for showing you what is beyond, showing you the truth. This 2 pieces are actually a micro dose but can still be felt if your body is clean of toxins & fasting for 24 h before at least. P.s is very soft & soaks liquids very fast so it really doesn't need to be cut or specially prepared for the smoothie. I just dropped the whole pieces into the jar. Be careful when picking or growing psilocybe cause almost everywhere in the world they are forbidden by the matrix & the agents are always looking for them & to bust your innocent, righteous ass! Also show huge respect when picking cause there deadly poisonous galerinas growing in the same habitat but show respect also when you're consuming it. And again, make your own research!

Over all these dried substances I poured some lemon juice to make them more softer before the blender. I also pealed the apple, cut it in smaller pieces & threw it in the jar. Same I did with the banana.

Usually, when I have natural & not sprayed apples, I eat them all together with the skin but when they come from any supermarket I always peal them.

In the beginning of this year I was travelling India & spent few days in the Art Of Living ashram near Bangalore to get back in control of my life & get back on tracks. There I was examined by the ayurvedic doctor & she told me that I should get some ayurvedic medicines from their official store there so I bought few of them. I didn't have any serious problem but I still obeyed the doctor's proposal. Till today I didn't spend the whole box of it even thou I have no idea what are the ingredients I really trust in ayurvedic medicine so I ad some of this powder also in the smoothy.

If you have never heard of Art Of Living & you need some real true help in your life, guidance or advice maybe consider visiting some of the Art Of Living temples or at least a satsang with Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Gurudev live or recorded on the web. It will surely hep anyone!

Now the almonds! I almost forgot them & didn't shoot them in the 1st photo.

I buy almonds in the shell because it preserves the taste & the value of the core for much longer time & I love to crack them. When you buy almonds ready to eat they are surely processed in some way. These are also somewhere from Dalmatia, Croatia.

Almost in the same time when I prepared all the mushrooms & plants the tea was done boiling too. Already with drying Amanita muscaria ibotenic acid is turning into muscimol but with boiling you turn the rest of it. Ibotenic acid can make you feel sick, with stomach pain & even vomiting but muscimol is the magical ingredient which brings many benefits to the human beings. I just want to be sure that I will not be sick & that is the reason why I boil it. Some people are able to eat raw & fresh fly agaric with no negative consequences. Some also eat just dried but me only tried boiled & it showed to me great results. I'm not ready yet to experiment more but I will cause there are testimonies of numerous people all around the world. It is not possible to die of poisoning with this mushroom if you prepare it correctly with respect!

I poured the tea into the cup firstly.

Than I took the few pieces of fly agaric from the tea pot & transferred them into the jar.

I also transferred the tea from the cup to the jar & blended it all together with the stick mixer. It was mildly warm.

This was the result. It was also mildly sour so I sweetened it with the special honey which easily dissolved in the warm magical space liquid. My idea manifested in the finest form & the experiment was successful!
