**Meet MELLOW 💙🌿 Another one from **Fun Guy**, a brand we already carry and love at Professor Seagull’s — and this one brings together **Kanna, functional mushrooms & traditional calming botanicals** in one formula. At the center is **Kanna**, a South African succulent with a long history of traditional use, often associated with **mood, relaxation and a sense of ease**. The formula is rounded out with: 🍄 **Reishi** — traditionally used to support relaxation, balance & overall well-being 🌿 **Chaga** — an antioxidant-rich functional mushroom traditionally valued for resilience and general wellness 🌙 **Valerian Root** — one of the classic herbs traditionally used for relaxation and restful sleep 🌱 **Kava** — a Pacific Island root traditionally used to promote calm and ease tension A very different personality from **PERFORM**: while Perform is all about energy, focus and momentum, **Mellow is for slowing things down.** Now available at **Professor Seagull’s Smartshop** ✨ #ProfessorSeagulls #FunGuy #Kanna #Reishi #Chaga #Herbalism #FunctionalMushrooms #NorthBeachSF #SanFrancisco

A little something different from Fun Guy just landed at Professor Seagull’s 👀🍄 We already carry quite a few of their products, which you may know for being more Kanna-focused — but this time, they’re taking a different direction. Meet PERFORM Mushroom Elixir 🌿🍄 At the heart of the formula is Cordyceps, a functional mushroom traditionally used to support energy, stamina and physical performance — a favorite for active days when you want a little extra drive. The blend also brings together: 🦁 Lion’s Mane — traditionally associated with focus, memory & mental clarity 🌱 Ginseng — used in herbal traditions for vitality, energy & resilience 🌿 Holy Basil (Tulsi) — an adaptogenic herb traditionally used to support balance and help the body respond to everyday stress ✨ Rhodiola — traditionally used for stamina and fatigue support 🫐 Goji Berry — antioxidant-rich and traditionally used as a nourishing tonic ⚡ Guarana — a natural source of caffeine for an extra energy boost A pretty interesting change of direction from Fun Guy — less Kanna, more mushrooms, adaptogens & botanical energy. Now available at Professor Seagull’s Smartshop ✨🍄 #ProfessorSeagulls #FunGuy #FunctionalMushrooms #Cordyceps #LionsMane #Adaptogens #Herbalism #NorthBeachSF #SanFranciso

💚 SALVIA DIVINORUM 💚 Misunderstood by so many, she speaks softly for those who learn how to listen... https://www.eventbrite.com/e/salvia-divinorum-workshop-tickets-1988135465697

It's coming soon.... It's free as always...

🎈 FREE MONTHLY SCREENING 🎈 Every month we watch something weird — psychedelic, dizzying, or straight out of the counterculture. This month: THE ADVENTURES OF BARON MUNCHAUSEN (1988, dir. Terry Gilliam). A surrealist tall tale where a wildly unreliable Baron rides a cannonball, waltzes on the moon, and argues with Death itself. Gilliam at his most gloriously unhinged. 🗓 Wednesday, August 19 🕖 7–9 PM 📍 LiveWorms Gallery 💸 Free. Always. Bring popcorn. Bring a friend. RSVP on Eventbrite or just show up — we'll always find you a seat, a cushion, or a pillow on the floor. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/free-film-screening-psychedelic-movie-night-tbd-tickets-1988959480347?aff=ebdsoporgprofile #BaronMunchausen #TerryGilliam #FilmScreening #SFEvents #CultClassics

🌿 Back by popular demand! Our first Salvia divinorum Workshop sold out, so we're excited to welcome Robbie Martin back for a second edition. Robbie Martin has spent years researching, cultivating, and working with Salvia divinorum. Through extensive experimentation and careful observation, he has developed his own tincture-making process and has dedicated years to understanding this remarkable plant, its history, and its traditional uses. The afternoon begins with an introduction to Salvia divinorum—its cultural background, practical applications, and the journey that led Robbie to develop his tincture after years of research, refinement, and hands-on experience. Following the presentation, our faciliator will explain his tincture-making process in detail and answer questions from participants. The workshop concludes with an optional guided tasting of Robbie's Salvia divinorum tincture, allowing participants to explore the experience gradually and at their own pace. 🌿 Learn. Discuss. Experience. 🎟️ Our last workshop was fully booked, and spaces are limited again. Reserve your ticket before it's too late! 📍 Live Worms Gallery / The Church of Mother Gong 📅 Saturday, August 22 🕑 2:00–5:00 PM #SalviaDivinorum #PlantEducation #Ethnobotany #ProfessorSeagullsSmartshop #ChurchOfMotherGong #SanFranciscoEvents #NorthBeachSF #Workshop #CommunityLearning #BotanicalCulture

✨ Meet Gwen Pelfini ✨ We're incredibly grateful to have Gwen Pelfini facilitating our monthly Peer Support & Integration Circle. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Gwen has spent more than 20 years working in the mental health field. Her journey has taken her from community organizations and public health programs to UCLA and NYU, where she developed a passion for creating spaces rooted in compassion, curiosity, and genuine human connection. Today, she's a multi-licensed psychotherapist, educator, advocate, adjunct professor, and founder of Rooted Ethos, where her mission is simple: to help people reconnect with their own inner wisdom and build meaningful lives. At our Peer Support & Integration Circle, Gwen isn't here to lecture or have all the answers. She's here to help hold the space. This is a circle where each of us can be the helper and the helped. A place where listening is just as valuable as speaking, where lived experience is honored, and where everyone has something meaningful to offer. Whether you come to share, to listen, or simply to be present, you're welcome exactly as you are. 🗓 Every Third Thursday 🕖 7:00–8:00 PM 📍 LiveWorms Gallery 🎟 Free • Open to everyone We'd love to welcome you into the circle. 💚
