The flower that is used in smoke seshes today are very different than the ones used hundreds or even thousands of years ago. This is because we’ve bred out high CBD varieties in preference for high THC plants so that we can maximize the expression of THC potential in those varieties. Does that mean to get a good, all-around experience, your smoke sesh should include CBD? In this blog post, we’ll explore the many reasons why you should consider adding CBD to your smoking routine.
A Brief Overview of The Power of CBD
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a non-intoxicating compound found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD doesn’t produce the psychoactive effects associated with feeling “high.” Instead, CBD offers a wide range of potential benefits, both on its own and when combined with THC.
Why Add CBD to Your Smoke Sesh?
Balance Out the Effects
One of the primary reasons to include CBD in your smoke sesh is to achieve a more balanced and controlled experience. While THC can deliver powerful euphoria and relaxation, it can also sometimes lead to feelings of anxiety or paranoia, especially in high doses. CBD has the unique ability to counteract some of these negative effects, providing a smoother and more enjoyable high.
Increase Your Relaxation
If you’re looking to unwind and relax during your smoke sesh, CBD can be a game-changer. It’s known for its calming properties, making it an excellent addition for those seeking a stress-free experience. Combining CBD with THC can result in a more tranquil and less anxious high.
Help with Pain Relief
Many people turn to herb for their potential pain-relieving properties, and CBD plays a significant role in this. CBD has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties that can help alleviate discomfort, whether it’s from chronic pain or muscle soreness after a workout
Reduced Anxiety
Some individuals experience anxiety when consuming THC, especially in higher doses. CBD can help mitigate these anxiety-inducing effects, allowing you to enjoy your smoke sesh with greater peace of mind.
How to Combine CBD with THC in Your Smoke Sesh
Combine Flowers
Roll a joint that combines both CBD and THC-rich strains. Using a grinder, make sure you get an even grind. This will help ensure an even burning joint. Using a rolling tray like our Blazy Susan can help you keep everything organized so you know which is which and can combine the two without losing any in the rolling process. Combining flowers or finding a strain that has both THC and CBD, can offer a balanced and enjoyable smoking experience.
CBD-Infused Edibles
If you don’t have the ability to find heavy CBD rich strains, then other CDB products, like the ones from our very own Susan’s Own, can also give you the ability to have nice combinations of CBD and TCH. For example, you can eat CBD gummies 30-60 mins before your smoke sesh. The CBD gummies can help counteract any potential anxiety during your sesh, ensuring a smoother ride.
CBD Tincture Drops
If you are smoking it up from a bong or water pipe, you can consider adding a couple of drops of CBD tincture oil to your bong water. This can infuse your smoke with CBD as you inhale, offering a mellow and soothing sensation.
Conclusion
Incorporating CBD into your smoke sesh can offer a more balanced, enjoyable, and therapeutic experience. Whether you’re seeking relaxation, pain relief, or anxiety reduction, CBD has the potential to enhance your overall well-being. Together, they’ll take your smoking experience to new heights, allowing you to savor every moment of your journey in your smoke sesh.
