What activities do you all like to do while tripping? 2

Hi all!
With my first trip coming up, I’m wondering what you all like to do, before, during, and after your trip? Specifically on mushrooms but if you have any other advice that comes from other substances, that would be appreciated.
Do you like to journal? Walk? Draw? Music? Walking? I need suggestions and I look forward to hearing some diverse thoughts on what each individual person does.
Thank you!
Cheers!

I keep a trip log, listen music during the comeup, watch some movie etc when things are starting to come down again and eat various things during the trip as everything tastes great. At some point I will try to draw again and also make music sometime.

If you have musical instruments you can use, those are amazing when tripping. Same with, eh, laser lights (just point them at the ceiling don't look at the laser obviously), surrounding yourself with plants in your trip environment, get some cool RGB or just strips of certain color LEDs....posters of your favorite stuff, etc.
...I like to decorate my trip space, and clean it, before I trip. I have basically an ironclad defense against a bad trip. I will listen to meditative harmony music on youtube with an eyemask and good headphones during the peak, usually after the peak I like to watch a movie, and definitely go outside. Going outside in nature when your trip is past its peak, and smoking some herb, is magical. I remember tripping with a buddy of mine and we had done lemon tek method, we did a moderate dose, we went out when coming up on the mushrooms, and smoked some herb, and everything started turning into fractal patterns. The leaves and growth in the forest, everything that already had some kind of repeating pattern, kept repeating, and my friend and I realized we better head inside at that point lol...so unless you have something planned out for many hours outside, I wouldn't trip entirely outside, especially if it is cold where you are.
I don't like being outside if I am too blitzed on psychedelics, unless I am with some good company and we're on some kind of remote hike, with failsafes and a trip sitter or a very experienced psychonaut on a lower dose...and I always gauge the OEVs after the peak to decide what to do. If it's too intense still I'll stay inside and eat various fruits. Grapes and raspberries are freaking amazing on psychs, as well as blueberries. Sometimes I'll draw, or carry on conversations with others.
By myself, my failsafe trip thing resides on the following--
-I have 100% certainty that I have no other pressing matters -Nothing is bothering me in my head that would otherwise distract me from a recreational experience (although, I try to find meaning in all my trips) -I have plenty of food and drink on hand (though usually only eat berries, and my goodness, sparkling water or sparkling cider tastes divine -I have plenty of entertainment on hand -- these are usually trip friendly movies, and I have them ordered and in a specific location, all rated from "least intense" to "most intense". I like movies where, on a certain dose of psychedelics, you can tell the production crew deliberately made the scenes to play with your mind, so something like Alice in Wonderland is amazing. Fantasia....any Mikayazi movie (except the amulet movie since thats like 9 hours long), etc. Also if you've seen the movie with dubs and subs before, putting it on with no dubs, and no subs, whilst tripping, is a delight for the senses.
I basically do all of it--walking, drawing, music, meditation, etc. Mushrooms have a way of letting you know what you would like to do, they sort of nudge ya and you will decide that something is fun, minutes later it might not be fun, so just keep a variety of things handy.
If all else fails you can stare at the stars and that will always be magnificent.

Yes! I have a keyboard and I love to play so I’m hoping to make some sweet tunes tripping. I definitely want to make it a calm and cool experience so plants and some warm LEDs. I’ll be doing a light cleaning before, just so I’m not stressed about my space. Definitely smoking herb, cool ass visuals and less anxiety is a good deal. I’m gonna head outside and take a walk down the street most likely. It’s pretty cold here at night so I won’t be out long. Alice In Wonderland is a good idea, I’m looking forward to watching some shows that I have watched before and seeing how differently I think of them. I’ll be sure to have multiple things ready to go and do. And I’m looking forward to seeing the stars whilst I trip  Cheers!

Have no plans, but have easy access to things you think you might want to do. Don't worry about a trip log for your first time, that will just pull you out of the flow of a fun experience.
If you have some complicated music listening set up, get it ready BEFORE HAND. You don't want to be tripping and trying to set up AUX cables and shit. Make it as frictionless as possible to do fun things. Have extra blankets by your bed so if you want to lay down and be warm and cozy you don't have to stumble to your closet and move shit around to pull out blankets.
Wear comfortable clothes and have good comfy walking shoes close by so you can slip them on and got for a walk. If you have headphones in a drawer, get them out so all you have to do is plug in and listen.

I won’t do a trip log, thank you for that advice. I don’t want to take away from my trip. I’ll have a playlist ready  Oh and sweat pants all the way for comfy clothes. Cheers!

I just pack lunch and something to drink and go spend the day outside somewhere safe (i.e., where no strangers are present at all, if possible). I love hiking in forests, hill trails, some remote beach. Ideal setting is CAMPING and taking the dose at dusk or at dawn. If you go this route, get BUG REPELLENT!! And some portable Bluetooth speaker to hook up to your phone. Other useful item is something to lay down on (like picnic blankets, IDK how you call them in English). Oh and btw I usually trip with my wife, and sometimes two or three friends join us. Tripping by a campfire is truly amazing.

Agree with vines, I think it's more about the physical location itself and the sounds you'll hear. IME, meditating while hearing the crashing waves of the sea makes it really easy to focus, whereas in a forest I'd rather keep eyes open (well, as much as possible) and take a good look at other lifeforms.

I enjoy curling up in a warm blanket while my girl plays ps4 and laughs at stupid shit I say. I get too disoriented to enjoy moving around

I’ll try meditating! And hopefully I can get near some water. It would be lovely to listen to the waves. Cheers!

I’ll go with the flow and open and close as the mushrooms desire  But I’m curious to see if I can discover other realms. Cheers!
