Minicourse Instructors:
Sean Merrick MA, LMFT (Instructor, Weeks 1-2)
is a psychoneuroimmunology and depth psychologist with extensive experience in the fields of Trauma Informed and Nurtured Heart care, augmenting his treatments with gut health analyses, plant medicine, and Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Before starting up his clinical practice, he parlayed his degree in clinical exercise physiology into a lucrative career as an anti-infective specialist for Merck Pharmaceuticals. Growing increasingly frustrated with his industry’s shortcomings, Merrick immersed himself in the world of functional medicine, earning his Master’s from Brandman University and dedicating his life’s work to examining and treating the root causes of mental, physical, and spiritual care. This led him to apprentice as an ayahuasca facilitator in the Shipibo-Konibo tradition and as a ketamine-assisted psychotherapist under Scott Shannon, MD through the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies in Colorado. He lives and works in Nevada City, CA.
Dr. Karina Klimchuk (Instructor, Weeks 3-4)
has synthesized a unique blend of Eastern and Western healthcare modalities within her role as a functional and integrative healthcare practitioner. After graduating with a dual major in sociology and psychology from the University of Massachusetts-Boston, Dr. Klimchuk studied toward a Psya.D in Psychoanalysis, while also picking up additional training in Yoga, Acupuncture, and Traditional Chinese Medicine. She later mastered Chinese herbalism and Acupuncture enough to teach at Emperor’s College in Santa Monica, and also serves as a faculty member for Yo San University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Los Angeles. Her LA-based clinic, Kai Wellness, synthesizes all of the treatment modalities that she’s mastered along the way for clients in need of responsive, caring, and holistic medical and spiritual care.
Brian Chaplin (Co-instructor) is a wellness entrepreneur, 12-step graduate and east coast transplant to Lake Tahoe from New Hampshire. Beginning his first company Medicine Box during the California Medical cannabis boom in 2016, Brian took the company nationally in 2020, months after the pandemic was declared. During those initial months, Brian began exploring microdosing and its connection to mental health and recovery. He soon determined that in order to maximize its benefits, microdosing would need its own psychedelic-assisted therapy model. To that end, he built his second wellness brand, Mind’s Eye, on a Medicine and Mentorship model that marries high-quality nootropic supplements with comprehensive instruction such as the Minicourse and the upcoming Microdosing Mastercourse in December. When not running his brands, Brian whiles away the hours hiking, swimming in the waters of North Lake Tahoe, skiing, listening to Phish bootlegs, and playing his guitar.

HOW TO USE MIND’S EYE INTROSPECTION MUSHROOM CAPSULES
WE recommend a 90 Day journey (3 packages of Minds Eye Harmonize + 2 packages of Minds Eye Introspection) on a 3 days on, 2 days off routine up to 15 days.
*See our 90 Day bundle. Also containing our Mind's Eye Micro Tracker.
After 15 days, you can mix & match with a 5 on-2 off routine, or a 3 on-2 off (have fun with it!) followed by a 30-60 day abstinence period after you’ve completed 90 days.
WHY DO I TAKE DAYS OFF?
Your days off will help avoid building up a tolerance. Building up a tolerance could potentially result in “diminishing returns” (a decrease in desired results after a few days). It is also important to take time to integrate while engaging in behavioral exercises (journaling, breathwork, time in nature, talk therapy, meditation) when the brain (not the mind) is more pliable (the window of opportunity) where circuits are able to learn better which is the optimal time to engage in these exercises in a very deliberate way.
WHY DO I TAKE 30-60 DAYS OFF AFTER MY 90 DAY JOURNEY?
A 30-60 day abstinence period (crazy right), what business wants you to NOT buy their products?!?! If you’ve combined your journey with these behavioral exercises which actively engage the very circuits that you’re trying to “train up” and “enhance” you will have given your brain the chance to positively modulate itself. At this tapered off stage, WE WANT YOU to use these newly trained circuits without any intervention from these compounds.
Imagine a world with shiny happy people not dependent on anything outside of themselves?
THIS FOR THAT
It is an unrealistic expectation that you can just take “this” (any exogenous compound) to turn on, or off “that” (focus,creativity,clarity, happiness) at will. The real work is within YOU.
Remember, this is just a thing to get you to the thing, and that thing is you! Your psychological work is always in service to your spiritual development.
FAQ
Our Mind's Eye Harmonize product is made with an intentional formulation of six adaptogenic mushrooms (Lion's Mane, Turkey Tail, Reishi, Chaga, Cordyceps and Agarikon), five botanicals (Ashwaganda, Holy Basil, Bacopa, Sea Moss and Turmeric) and two essential nutrients (Magnesium Threonate and Niacin) at a concentration of 1000 mg.
As artisanal wellness alchemists, we've worked with medicinal plants and fungi for years in the proverbial vineyards, while experts like Paul Stamets, Michael Pollan and Dr James Fadiman spread the word. We wanted something that would provide cognitive function and feelings of interconnectedness but without the anxiousness other nootropics can produce. For example, we balanced out the formulations brain-stimulating mushroom adaptogens with the soothing botanicals of Ashwaganda and Holy Basil, all working in synergy.
This product is intended for humans that are seeking to harmonize their relationship with themselves, with others and with Mother Earth. It is beneficial for anyone who is a creative or an entrepreneur as well as those who seek to live more in the present moment, free from distractions. If you have heart issues, high blood pressure or are sensitive to stimulating effects, we recommend consulting your primary care provider before taking these products.
We recommend you take one capsule per day of the Mind’s Eye Harmonize. This plant-based nootropic is perfect as both a standalone mental improvement supplement and a complement for any microdosing protocol.
The effects are prolonged feelings of wellbeing brought on by a sense of creativity, productivity, accomplishment and reduced anxiousness with self and others.
The Mind's Eye Harmonize formulation was designed to remove the nausea of a microdosing onset, while extending its benefits throughout the entire day. If you are embarking upon the Medicine Box Micrdosing Protocol, we recommend a 90-day bundle of the Mind's Eye Harmonize (three packages) to experience the full spectrum of experience with your fungal friends and plant allies.
