Magic Meets Science

From Foggy to Alert

“Magic Mind turns my morning coffee buzz into a symphony of focus, transforming a jittery prelude into a harmonious day of productivity and sharpness.”

Our Story

After a trip to the E.R. a decade ago, I was diagnosed with a heart condition, and my doctor explained that the two major culprits were too much stress and too much caffeine (and that they were related).

I was running a company of about 50 employees, and he told me that I needed to limit my caffeine intake to half a cup of coffee per day. Then he suggested green tea, saying it has compounds that extend the absorption of caffeine and that “give you calmness while keeping you alert.”

It had never occurred to me that adding an ingredient (or a few) alongside caffeine would improve its effectiveness and decrease stress…It’s been a wild journey since, and a decade of research into the space of nootropics, adaptogens, and functional mushrooms (and over 100 iterations) later, I’m now sharing this magical little concoction with you.

Scientifically designed to support enhanced focus, mood and motivation, and to help create a calm, sustained energy to make every day the most dialed-in you’ve ever been - Magic Mind might just become the best part of your morning ritual.*

Mental performance is more than energy.

Energy

Cognition

Magic Mind equips you with the mental agility needed to navigate complex tasks and solve problems swiftly, laying the foundation for a day of productive and meaningful work.*

Motivation

Magic Mind further amplifies your day by supporting elevated mood and motivation. This surge in spirit transforms your enhanced focus into actionable energy, helping you find deeper purpose in your activities.*

Balance

Completing the trio of benefits, Magic Mind brings balance into the equation by helping you better moderate stress levels to help foster emotional stability. Its unique blend encourages a calm, composed demeanor, enabling you to remain unflappable in the face of stress and maintain clarity of thought.*

Magic Mind's Principles

At Magic Mind, we don't have 'pillars' or 'values' that are meant to help us win when it comes to business. We have principles — ideals that we aim to live by, both inside and outside of work, and that have nothing to do with 'winning' (and others losing).

Honesty

Anything we put our name on, publicly or privately, any claim, any list of ingredients, we stand by. Trust in a brand and the team behind that brand is the highest priority for us.

Health

Clean Ingredients

We consume our own products daily, we share them with our families and friends, and we make every effort to choose sustainable and organic choices with each of our ingredients.

Customer First

Customer-First

We're not company-first. We're customer-first. Please send us any feedback, and you'll receive a reply from one of our team leads. We consistently read each review, rotate through customer support, conduct surveys, and gather feedback, and we're always looking for more insight from our customers.

FAQs

What's in Magic Mind?

Magic Mind contains a unique blend of 12 active ingredients designed to support focus, mood, and energy helping you stay productive throughout the day. ‍ Read more about the science behind each ingredient at magicmind.com/science — you can also read about the science and safety of our ingredients in our Amazon bestselling book “Beyond Coffee: A Sustainable Guide to Nootropics, Adaptogens, and Mushrooms”.

Is it safe? Does it work?

Magic Mind uses ingredients and dosages that are safe and effective, utilizing the mood-boosting power of things like Turmeric, the long-lasting energy effects of Matcha green tea, as well as other ingredients that you can read more about here: magicmind.com/science.

You can also read about the science and safety of our ingredients in our Amazon bestselling book, “Beyond Coffee: A Sustainable Guide to Nootropics, Adaptogens, and Mushrooms”.

What should I expect when consuming Magic Mind?

Unlike many traditional stimulants, Magic Mind’s benefits don’t come from excessive amounts of stimulating compounds such as caffeine. Though you'll feel an elevated sense of calm energy and focus within an hour of consuming Magic Mind, the benefits of some of the ingredients, like Ashwagandha and Cordyceps Mushrooms, can take 5 days to kick in and up to 10 days to reach full effect.

When cycling off of Magic Mind (see our recommendation below), or if you decide to stop consuming it altogether, you won't experience any kind of withdrawal.

Do I take it alongside coffee or tea?

Yes. Take alongside or in place of your morning caffeine. :) ‍

Magic Mind has minimal amounts of caffeine and is meant to be consumed as a supplement alongside your current morning routine. If you drink 2-3 cups of coffee during the day, Magic Mind will satisfyingly replace 1-2 of those cups by extending the caffeine of your current morning routine. It can also replace your current morning routine entirely if you're trying to reduce your caffeine intake.

Can I take it on an empty stomach?

Many people drink Magic Mind on an empty stomach without problem, but Matcha green tea on an empty stomach can be an issue for some. We recommend a light meal 30 minutes before or after drinking Magic Mind if you discover that it's an issue for you.

I started my Magic Mind daily shots a month ago, & now that it’s part of my morning routine I can honestly tell a difference for the better. I’m more focused at my job, I have completely cut all other caffeine out and feel more accomplished by day’s end. One of the best improvements I’ve made for myself in quite a while.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Green Machine Mocktail: A Zero-Proof Daiquiri for Hot Summer Days

QUICK ANSWER: The Green Machine is a zero-proof daiquiri-style mocktail made with Magic Mind Original, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and Angostura bitters, shaken with ice and strained into a punch glass. Ready in under 3 minutes.

Some drinks are built for one specific moment, and the Green Machine's moment is a hot afternoon with nothing to do. It's a daiquiri at its core: cold, tart, and balanced, with Magic Mind Original stepping in for the rum and bringing its own herbal depth to the party. Shake it hard, strain it cold, and drink it slow.

Is Magic Mind worth the price? A real cost comparison

~6-Minute Read

$2.48 a day. That's the actual number, once you're on a subscription. Before you decide whether that's a lot, ask yourself a better question: what's an hour of your own focus actually worth?

If you're a knowledge worker, a founder, a student pulling a study session together, or basically anyone whose income or output depends on the quality of your attention, the answer is almost certainly a lot more than $2.48. That's the real comparison. Not bottle versus bottle. Value versus price.

This Is an Investment, Not an Expense Even at $148.50 for thirty bottles, full price, ...
