Mama’s Tips

I’m not about to sit here and tell you how to relax- you should know that better than anyone! But I am here to advocate some mindfulness while consuming cannabis when you relax. Mindful cannabis consumption means every session is a special occasion, elevated and sprinkled with a little bit of magic- even if you’re trying to not do anything. Let's make those moments not just special, but legendary.

Choose indicas or CBD-heavy strains for maximum chill. It’s indica’s time to shine as your fluffy, warm blanket on a cold night. It can be the key to unlocking that 'sink into your sofa and forget your worries' kind of evening. And hey, if you’re not looking for so much of a high and THC isn't your jam, CBD-dominant strains are – soothing, gentle, and relaxing with less or no psychoactive high.

Create your zen den. Turn your space into a relaxation haven. Dim the lights, light some candles, or set up those funky LEDs💡 you bought online. Play some music that you love or you can even play a nature sounds playlist – one with birds chirping and rivers flowing. It's all about crafting YOUR perfect, cozy vibe.

Low and slow is the way to go. Remember, we’re not racing to Cloud 9 ☁️. Start with a small amount, especially if you're new to the scene or trying a new strain. Think of it like savoring a fine wine – take your time, enjoy the flavors, and let relaxation wash over you nice and easy.

It's important to listen to your body. If you're feeling good, there's no need to go further. It's like finding the perfect spot in a hot tub – why move when you've hit the sweet spot?

Pair it with your favorite chill activities. Whether it's watching reruns of your favorite sitcom, doodling in your sketchbook, or having a nice long soak in the bath 🛁, pairing your strain with an activity you love is like adding chocolate syrup to your ice cream – good on its own, but epic together.

Stay hydrated and snack smart. Don’t let cottonmouth bring your mood down. Keep water, tea, or my favorite, some kombucha, handy to stay hydrated. And for snacks? Think light and refreshing – fruits, nuts, or maybe those fancy crackers that cost $8 (you’re worth it). It's all about treating yourself right.

Keep a cannabis journal. Just like a wine journal where enthusiasts swirl, sniff, and sip their way through different vineyards and vintages, a cannabis journal serves a parallel purpose for those of us who love the green. In your journal you're detailing the symphony of flavors, the crescendo of effects, and the nuances that make each experience as memorable as a fine wine. It's about savoring the journey, recognizing the craftsmanship behind each strain, and ultimately, refining your palate to appreciate the subtle differences.

It's about understanding your relationship with cannabis on a deeper level.
