Do you struggle with falling asleep or staying asleep?
Sleep is essential for maintaining our mental and physical health, yet it eludes many adults. And it’s a very common problem, one that takes a toll on your energy, mood, and ability to function during the day.
In this episode, we will talk about how cannabis benefits and helps us to get a better sleep and methods to get asleep or staying asleep.
Many people struggle to get to sleep no matter how tired they are. Others wake up in the middle of the night and lie awake for hours, anxiously watching the clock. But, because different people need different amounts of sleep, insomnia is defined by the quality of your sleep and how you feel after sleeping—not the number of hours you sleep or how quickly you doze off. Even if you’re spending eight hours a night in bed, if you feel drowsy and fatigued during the day.
Whether you have a sleep disorder or you’re having difficulty sleeping after a stressful day, cannabis might be a choice for you. Marijuana’s analgesic properties might provide some relief for those with chronic pain, while the anti-anxiety properties can soothe a stressed out mind and body.
Sleep is one of the biggest challenges among my clients. Let’s talk about it.

In case you need a reminder...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Had to remind my damn self of this as I'm in the thick of virtual school due to a positive kiddo in my daughter's class. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I think we are still going to have ups and downs with this school year as the country, varients and people figure out this ish. But I'm so grateful for plant medicine to help ease my anxiety and make it through this mess. As someone who has suffered from anxiety all my life it's important to have all the tools I need to keep my head on right. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cannabis, meditation, nature and music/movement are always a part of my toolbox.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
