Magic Meets Science
From Groggy to Alert
"This is a great addition to my morning coffee routine. After taking Magic Mind, I feel mentally wide awake and ultra-productive without the jitters of drinking too much coffee."
Kylie C.
The Story
After a trip to the E.R. 7 years ago, I was diagnosed with a heart condition, and my doctor told me about the two major culprits: 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 one coffee per day. He mentioned green tea, saying that it has an amino acid called L-Theanine that will extend the absorption of caffeine and “give you calmness while keeping you alert.”
It had never occurred to me that adding ingredients to caffeine would improve its effectiveness and decrease stress… It’s been a wild journey since, and 7 years of research into the space of nootropics, adaptogens, and nutritional mushrooms (and 55+ iterations) later, I’m now sharing this little morning concoction with you. Scientifically designed to improve focus, calmness, energy, and productivity, Magic Mind is your new favorite morning ritual.

Productivity is more than energy
Energy
Energy and alertness is a cornerstone of productivity, but it's not the only one. Coffee and most energy drinks will give you alertness but the benefits largely stop there.
Cognition
We all know that energy without focus can be the opposite of productive. So we've designed Magic Mind to incorporate ingredients that improve memory, increase creativity, and improve focus.
Balance
Energy without balance is also counter-productive. Magic Mind is also designed with balance in mind, incorporating herbs for safe and effective stress reduction, calmness, and improved mood.
Magic Mind 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 — our ideals that we aim to live by, inside and outside of work, and these 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.
Healthy
We consume our own products daily, and 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
We're not company-first. We're customer-first. Please send us any feedback, and you will receive a reply from one of our team leads here. We consistently read each review, rotate through customer support, conduct surveys, gather feedback, and we're always looking for more insight from our customers.
Eco-Awareness
At Magic Mind, we're committed to a carbon-neutral company through proceeds going back to reforestation projects as well as choosing our plant-based ingredients from farms that are committed to sustainable practices (and we're currently working on a zero-waste option for customers!).
Environmental
Magic Mind contributes to environmental reforestation programs in Northern California and the Amazon rainforest to offset the carbon emissions impact of producing, packaging, and selling consumable bottles. We’re committed to being a 100% carbon neutral enterprise in partnership with Pachama.com.
Mental Health
Magic Mind donates $.05 for every bottle sold to mental health charities and services that assist impoverished and homeless communities within the United States.

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”
How should I consume Magic Mind?
Unlike many energy drinks, Magic Mind’s benefits don’t come from excessive amounts of stimulating compounds like caffeine.
Though most people feel an energy boost within an hour of consuming Magic Mind, the full benefits of all the ingredients, like Ashwagandha or Lion’s Mane mushrooms, can take 7-10 days to take full effect.
That is why we recommend taking the Magic Mind 14-day challenge — to add it to your morning routine for two weeks straight to see if you feel a boost in your productivity and focus.
Do I take it alongside coffee or tea?
Yes. :)
Magic Mind has minimal amounts of caffeine and is meant to be consumed as a supplement alongside your current morning routine. If you drink two-three cups of coffee during the day, Magic Mind will satisfyingly replace one to two of those cups, but it is designed to extend the caffeine of your current morning routine and not replace it completely.
Can I take it on an empty stomach?
Many people drink Magic Mind on an empty stomach without problem, but green tea on an empty stomach can be an issue for some. We recommend a light meal within 30 minutes before or after drinking if you discover it is an issue for you.
Can this interact with medicines? Who shouldn't take Magic Mind?
Yes, turmeric curcumin and ashwagandha can interact with some medications like SSRIs and blood-thinning medication, so please consult your physician if you are on medications currently. Turmeric is also not recommended for women who are pregnant or nursing.
What kind of matcha does Magic Mind use?
We use premium Japanese, ceremonial-grade matcha in each bottle of Magic Mind, sourced from our friends at Encha Matcha.
This is the highest quality category of Japanese matcha, and we are proud of the lengths that our tea farmers go through to produce such a high quality of matcha.
How much caffeine is in Magic Mind?
Magic Mind contains 40-50mgs of naturally occurring caffeine (from the matcha green tea). This is about the equivalent of ~1/3 cup of coffee.
Is Magic Mind gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, paleo-friendly, vegan-friendly, and keto-friendly?
Magic Mind is gluten-free, and nut-free. Magic Mind is also paleo-friendly. We do use a 1200mg of honey per serving, which makes it a consideration for vegan and keto customers to take into account.
How do I modify or cancel my subscription?
We're working on building a customer-facing dashboard for this. In the meantime, just send an email to cancel@magicmind.co and we'll take care of it within 24 hours.
