greetings ascension!

glad you found your way here this is a great collective source of experience and experiments, probably the best forum on the matter imo! i just wanted to add that maybe its not always bad that the preparation takes a long time, dont be detered by it! i myself enjoy and build up curiosity and especially spirituality during long hours over the stove. burning incents maybe listening to icaros or some other good music, talking to the brewing pot, going over youre intensions with the sacrement generally getting in the mood.

do try other ways aswell of course. the only real way to know what suits you best is by trying right!?

i also want to say that several other tryptamines, acid and cacti can in my experience be almost if not as spiritual and mind opening as dmt or ayahusca so dont rule them out just yet!

good luck to you and be safe!
