Relaxing with CBD—Tips and Tricks

Life’s on the run. Maintaining a social life (or social distance), dealing with crying kids, managing work deadlines, chasing a paycheck, and now the global pandemic—we’re stressed out both physically and mentally during these trying times.

So how do you cope with stress and anxiety?

We may have something for you that’ll help you relax and sleep easier: CBD

Before your mind immediately turns to marijuana and the euphoria or “high” that comes with it, let’s clear a common misconception here: CBD doesn’t get you high. It is non-intoxicating and CBD-derived products are associated with calmness and relaxation than high-inducing effects.

Can CBD Help You Relax?

Studies have shown that Cannabidiol (CBD) interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the human body, which regulates a variety of functions, including sleep, appetite, immune system response and pain.

A study cited in the  Journal of Psychopharmacology showed that a 400mg oral dose of CBD reduced symptoms of social anxiety. In another study, patients showed a significant reduction in anxiety levels and discomfort in social settings within an hour and a half of receiving CBD doses after performing stress-triggering exercises.

So, does this mean that CBD is the cure-all solution to treating stress and anxiety? Absolutely not. But it has shown to affect the brain’s response to serotonin, which is responsible for regulating mood and behavior.

Therefore, you can leverage CBD to achieve a feeling of calm, balance, and relaxation.

How to Use CBD Hemp Products for Relaxation

CBD hemp oil products can be consumed in different ways. The calming effects of CBD and the absorption rate depend on the products you take and the method in which you take them.

Tinctures

CBD tinctures, like the ones at Try-It-CBD, are made from high CBD strains of hemp. They are the easiest and most discreet form of CBD, and are administered a few drops at a time under the tongue. This way, the CBD drops are quickly absorbed by the capillaries in the mouth to support overall wellness.

Tinctures have a long shelf-life, and the dose can be adjusted gradually.

Edibles

CBD oil can also be added to sweet treats like gummies so that you can get your daily serving in a delicious and convenient way. Since edibles have to first pass through your digestive system, their absorption rate may be slower than others. You can see its effect after one or two hours of consumption. The best part is that they’re a great way to take CBD on-the-go!

Skincare Products

Celebrity evangelists, Melissa McCarthy raves about the benefits of CBD claiming she rubbed CBD oil on her feet before the Oscars. Some studies have shown that CBD can help soothe inflammation and moisturize the skin. A small study found that the anti-inflammatory effects of CBD shows promise in improving levels of hydration and elasticity in the skin. However, more randomized controlled trials need to be carried out to prove its efficacy.

Perhaps you can benefit from the natural antioxidants in CBD to get a dewy glow and radiance by incorporating CBD topicals in your skincare routine. You’ll never know if it works for you until you try!
