I found myself over time transitioning to 50/50 THC/CBD mixes, and only smoking on weekends. I found high THC plants were affecting me too much days after smoking.
While eating it might be healthier, I just enjoy the experience of smoking better. A shaman once told me that smoking is all about the intention.
Lots of people who smoke tobacco, do it while stressed out. They inhale and exhale with the sole intention of getting their nicotine quick. With cannabis, some people do it the same way, simply trying to get high quickly. That's when the negative health effects kick in.
It may sound like voodoo bs, but I totally get what he means. I think there's lots of truth to it.
I buy into that completely. Thousands of years of meditative practice is predicated on breathing. Whichā¦honestlyā¦is sortve whatās been bothering me. I donāt have any trouble with my lungs, butā¦idk. Thereās something to it. Respiration is the pre-requisite for our lives.
I think a good tell is when people cough a lot from smoking. They just haven't learned to how enjoy their blunt, by taking their time. We've all been there at some point. Some just never learn.
I haven't smoked in two months, but in general, I usually do it twice a week. It's been the case for probably a decade now. Yet, I've had zero issues with my lungs.
I think thatās my aim as of now. Justā¦get it under control a bit. Intention is the right word. I think often I get bored or Iām not moving with intention, so itās easy to take a rip and sortve ārun awayā.
Makes me super introspective and I would be an *even more* arrogant prick without it. Which also may be a problem. Love the perspective it gives me when I need it. I just donāt know if I need it 6 times a day anymore lol
Yeah, I get what you mean. I felt at one point that I needed it to reflect and think through things. I realised I was just using it as an excuse to smoke more than I needed.
Now, it's more of a relaxing weekend thing, and I enjoy it so much more than I did before because it feels special. I actually look forward to it.
It's the same as coffee. I go to work in the esrly morning, walk my dog when I get back, workout, then have my coffee around 1030-11am when I'm chilling by the window. It's such a chill feeling, that I look forward to it each day.
The fine line between use and abuse! If I had a dollar for every time my father told me that āeverything requires moderationāā¦
Love the idea of not feeling like I āneedā anything exogenous. Entertainment, drugs, any instant dopaminergic stimulus.
Isnāt that what we all did as kids? Just raw-dogged life with nothing but a full sack of balls
