Sleep is an essential component that contributes to the physical and mental wellness of individuals. An average person should try to enjoy at least 7 – 8 hours of sleep every night. But plenty of us have difficulties falling asleep naturally.

Several factors contribute to sleep disturbances, including a bad lifestyle, improper food habits, and excessive screen time. But resolving these challenges is crucial to enable the body to get some well-deserved rest necessary for healing and rejuvenation.

Medical Cannabis Strains Can Help You Sleep

Cannabis can be the best solution to help you through this ordeal. It is a safe and herbal approach to achieving wonderful sleep at night. If you are planning to seek the magic of this herb as a sleep aid, here are some powerful strains to consider.

1. The Super Skunk

One of the top contenders for the best sleep strains this year, the Super Skunk is a brilliant hybrid of Afghani and Skunk#1. The very DNA of this strain carries exceptional cannabinoid concentration that contributes to the sedative effect of the variety. But this strain is considered rather potent and even more intense than its parents.

Although the heavy pungent smell could feel drastic for beginners, the taste is surprisingly amazing. A few hits at the end of the day can induce a couch-lock effect and a relaxing feeling in the brain and body. It also leaves the person feeling calm and euphoric, which could be soothing. The strain promises high yields, especially from direct exposure to sunlight.

2. Banana OG

One of the most popular strains you can get from a premium brand like East Coast Cannabis, the Banana OG expresses a practically irresistible, delightful aroma. The strain is a cross between Banana Kush and OG Kush, both known for their mild smoke and sweet smell. But the striking levels of THC make it the perfect candidate for sleep.

Even a mild dose of the strain can have a striking effect on user cognition and body. The initial feeling could be lightheadedness and euphoria, but the same evolves to give a holistic relaxation. A good dose early in the evening can ease physical and mental stress and alter the mood to encourage sleep. The strain can also balance paranoia and anxiety for a destabilizing effect. The dynamic knockout effects kicking in the system from the variety will take you straight to bed.

3. G-13

The origin tale of the G-13 strain is almost a top secret that nobody knows anything about. But this indica-dominant strain enriched with a sweet pine flavor is a blessing for individuals with sleep problems.

The strain has 16.2% THC combined with a hint of CBG at 0.4% and CBD at 0.1% working together to create an impressive effect to enhance sleep. It can create a happy high that is pleasant and relaxing for the system. Medium doses of the strain can help you sleep quickly and deeply. It is also good for treating other symptoms like PTSD, anxiety, stress, and pain.

4. Northern Lights

Northern Lights is an Indica-dominant strain hailing from Thailand and Afghanistan regions. It is a classic choice of cannabis strain to enjoy a peaceful sleep. Like most strains for sedation, this also contains a high concentration of THC. But it is unique because it does not introduce a couch lock effect. It is, therefore, ideal to use it any time of the day. Just a few puffs can improve sleep quality tremendously.

The combination of potent terpenes like myrcene and pinene also gives this strain a wonderful taste and smell. It can ease insomnia and sleep disturbances seamlessly and is a good choice for novice and experienced cannabis enthusiasts.

5. Grape Ape

Grape Ape is an ideal candidate for elevated sleep benefits, thanks to the presence of an impeccable terpene called myrcene. The compound is known for improving sleep quality and healing conditions such as insomnia, PTSD, and depression. 

The strain is brimming with THC at around 15 – 25 %, with a hint of CBD at less than 1%. The effects of the strain set in slowly until it creates a weighty sensation at its peak. The slow onset will help you go to sleep seamlessly and enjoy a spacey calmness. Utilizing it for its sedative and analgesic effects can be beneficial as it helps set in a moderate high through its powerful potency, thick odor, and fruity flavors. 

6. Remedy

Unlike other strains on the list, Remedy is a CBD-dominant strain. But its benefits for inducing sleep are unparalleled. The rich concentration of CBD in combination with beta-caryophyllene and myrcene compliments the anti-anxiety and insomnia effects of the strain.

This luxurious descendant of Afghan Skunk and Cannatonic is a variety that relaxes the brain and leaves the individual feeling calm and soothed without causing a high. The effects set in slowly like a therapeutic ingredient to blanket the user with mild sedation. The effects are not overwhelming and can improve sleep quality naturally and gradually.

The Remedy is also a good choice for individuals trying to avoid high THC in fear of intense psychoactive effects. You can enjoy the same amazing sleep benefits without worrying about the cannabinoids triggering anxiety, depression, or paranoia.

Conclusion

Cannabis is a powerful aid to help you with sleep. Choosing strains known to cast their impressive soothing properties can be the best option to help cope with sleep difficulties. Make sure to purchase only from trusted vendors and invest in premium products for elevated benefits.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄 ⁣ Which is you Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄
⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.
Want to learn more, including what many of these terms mean? Check out my books (including Vitamin Weed) & courses via the link in my bio.

At least in Nevada under the Board of Pharmacy... At least in Nevada under the Board of Pharmacy...
This is a huge victory, especially for POC in Nevada who were unfairly targeted by police and arrested due to this legal loophole despite legalization of this plant.
The ACLU sued the Nevada Pharmacy Board & won the case. An additional judgement on whether or not the board should regulate the plant at all any more is coming in future weeks.
Still waiting for @Potus to legalize on the Federal level. What are we waiting for?
