Despite hanging out with a circle of cannabis users for the better part of the last decade I still have quite a few friends who don’t partake and have never even tried any cannabis-based products. One of the biggest questions of intrigue I always get from these individuals is what does the high feel like […]
It’s been a little over a year since I got back on the horse (so to speak). For the better part of a decade, I’d let myself go. It took a year of exercise and diet but now that I’m almost a hundred pounds lighter, exercise has simply become part of my daily routine. This […]
It’s been over a decade now since my mother battled with cancer and made it through undefeated but not unscathed. Complications from neuropathy combined with her self-termed “pea-sized bladder” were cutting into her sleep cycle. This is where cannabis came into the picture to save the day. While it would be absolutely laughable to assume […]
There a lot of benefits that have come to Colorado with the legalization of recreational marijuana. While there certainly is still a lot of skepticism out there amongst many who think that cannabis should only be legal for medicinal use, let me throw down a little bit of information that might change their mind. If […]
The medicinal and recreational use of cannabis is inexorably linked. What originally spawned the ability for states to legalize recreational cannabis was accepted medical use around our country. This monumental paradigm shift on how we conceptualize the use of cannabis-based products has revolutionized the way that Americans heal in the 21st century. As the crisis […]
Since the first legalization of medicinal marijuana, there’s always been one chief concern from a health viewpoint. While scientific research may be incredibly nascent in the field of medicinal and recreational cannabis I think it is obvious that combusting any component and inhaling it is not the best choice for your lungs and vicariously your […]
If you’ve ever taken the time to peruse the list of ailments deemed by the state as worthy of medicinal cannabis (for starters, odd hobby) you may have noticed there’s a lot of things missing that don’t seem like they should be missing. While medicinal cannabis is approved to treat complications regarding things like cancer […]
Allow me to recount to you the vaguely uncreative tale of the little cannabinoid that could. There were a lot of cannabinoids in the crop and they all did great things. Some of them helped with depression, some of them helped fight cancer, some of them helped with epilepsy, and some of them helped fight […]
There’s a lot of conflicting news out there nowadays about cannabis. Since cannabis is still scheduled one in the eyes of the federal government it’s made it exceedingly difficult to study medicinal benefits while still being compliant to the law. It seems like for the first time in history, proper research is being put into […]
The visit I made to Ascend happened in early September of 2017, and I had a great conversation with Jim. It took me a few weeks to set it up, I met Jim’s business partner Keith while shopping at my local dispensary. Keith was headed out of the country for a couple weeks at the […]
If you’re not already versed in the possibilities of CBD allow me to expand a little on just how amazing I find this cannabinoid. CBD has been found to possess anti-carcinogenic properties, anti-inflammatory properties, pain relieving attributes send a whole mess of genuinely good vibes and luckily for there are places where you can buy […]
Good things are happening at Walking Raven Dispensary at 2001 S Broadway, Denver, CO. While the South Broadway strip has no shortage of options for cannabis shoppers, I recommend you put Walking Raven on the hitlist. It’s a smaller shop, so you might not think that they compete with the big guys for quality and […]
I will unabashedly proclaim my love of CBD any day. Not only does this cannabinoid possess some of the most astonishing medicinal properties but it’s also the best darn natural pain reliever I’ve ever taken. If you’re still unfamiliar with this component of cannabis, let me familiarize you for a moment. CBD or Cannabidiol is […]
Ever since I was too young to be playing with lighters I’ve always had the tradition of blowing things up for the fourth of July. Maybe it dates back to some primal desire to control fire or maybe it’s simply the best way for me to show my patriotism whenever that special day rolls around. […]
Something truly unique occurred when cannabis was legalized here in Colorado. Thousands of people who would normally never want anything to do with cannabis started to learn about the medicinal benefits cannabis can have without even smoking it. I first observed this in my daily life. Half of my girlfriend’s family has spent the better […]
