Changa is a modern DMT and Harmala smoking blend originally designed to be a sub-breakthrough experience. The intention behind changa was to provide a gentler way for people to approach DMT. According to users, sub-breakthrough experiences can be intense too. Breakthrough experiences however, are possible to achieve with changa.
Changa (chang-ah) is a smoking blend of herbs infused with DMT and Ayahuasca Vine/Leaf. Together they synergize to give changa its unique character and healing power. All in all, the purpose of changa is to offer a more accessible way of smoking DMT so that users can get more therapeutic benefits out of it and longer duration compared to smoking freebase DMT crystal. The experience typically lasts about 15 minutes.
Smoking freebase DMT effects are very intense and short lasting. Upon smoking DMT, it usually blasts users to another dimension, and the experience lasts about five minutes. Retaining the visions and integrating the information from the experience is somewhat difficult for many people. Changa has a gentler onset, a broader range of psychedelic effects, and lasts longer (15-40 min). One can smoke a little, for example, and have a more relaxed experience.
When it comes to how to smoke changa, you have a lot of options. Changa can be smoked out of any smoking device, including a bong, bubbler, pipe, or vaporizer. While more wasteful, changa is also commonly rolled into joints like you would with cannabis. The best smoking device depends on the effect you desire.
Bongs, likely the most common smoking device used for changa, reliably lead to breakthrough experiences. When smoking changa out of a bong or pipe, pack approximately 40-100 mg of changa then apply the flame from about an inch above the bowl to light just the uppermost part. Breath slowly and deeply, holding each hit for 10-20 seconds.
It’s important to note the harmalas in changa require a much higher temperature to vaporize than the DMT. This makes effects from vaporizing more closely resemble freebase DMT unless higher temperatures (230°C+) are used. Inhale slowly and steadily, holding the hits for 10-20 seconds.
