5 uplifting things to do with cannabis – anywhere you happen to be!
We all know using cannabis can be a great form of self-care. Using marijuana is a good way to destress, get a clear perspective, or simply make mundane tasks more interesting. However, it’s also easy to get stuck on the couch after a smoke session for hours on end. Avoid the funk! Next time, try one of these activities instead.
Yoga and Breathwork
Many users report that marijuana brings them more in touch with their bodies, breath, and heartbeat. Take advantage of that! Try yoga under the influence of cannabis. It’s easy to do – all you need is a little extra space and your favorite yoga YouTube video. Yin yoga is an especially therapeutic practice to try with marijuana. Additionally, try following up your session with breathwork. Breath exercises can help reduce any negative effects of cannabis that may occur like rapid heartbeat, panic attacks, and anxiety.
Journaling
Speaking of panic attacks and anxiety, if you’re looking to destress, journaling while high might be a good solution for you! Smoking cannabis will help you mellow out AND enhance your creativity. Try writing down a stream-of-consciousness in your journal and revisiting it the next day – you may find it insightful. Journaling is also a great way to work through problems, so consider writing down any bothersome issues and working through their solutions with good old-fashioned pen and paper.
Dance Party
Looking for a serious antidote to couch-funk next time you smoke? Trying having a dance party. Crank up your favorite tunes, turn the lights low, and get to it. Dance parties for one are great, but don’t leave your friends out! It’s a great way to get moving, catch some endorphins, and improve your energy level overall. For many, getting stoned is the only way to let go of self-conscious thoughts while dancing. Plus, 30 minutes of dancing burns between 200 and 400 calories, so you can have a guilt-free post-dance munchie session.
Listen to a Guided Meditation
Among other uplifting things you can do with cannabis is listen to a guided meditation. Zen meditation can be challenging, but with a little cannabis, it doesn’t have to be. Just find a comfortable place to sit or lay down, put in your headphones, and play your favorite guided meditation on YouTube or Spotify. The instructor’s calming words will give your busy mind something to focus on – plus many meditations play soothing sounds in the background like babbling brooks and windchimes.
If you’re hoping for a euphoric cannabis experience, this might be the activity for you.
Play Board Games, Card Games, or Strategy Games
No matter if you’re alone or with friends, playing a board, card, or strategy game while stoned can be a ton of fun. Playing games is a perfect way to enjoy the euphoric feelings brought on by cannabis, You might try busting out some games from decades past like Candyland, Monopoly, Jenga, or Yahtzee. You might also make things a little more modern and adult-themed by playing Cards Against Humanity or apples to apples. Believe it or not, you can also buy marijuana board games like Lords of Cannabis, THC the Game, Weed-Opoly.
