Marijuana has actually been used in spiritual, religious traditions throughout the ages. It is actually mentioned in numerous sacred texts of world religions. 

Probably the origins of our bans on marijuana are related to the religious holy wars that were fought against peoples who used what they were considered to be demon drugs. So there is a religious component to not only the use of marijuana but to the bans of it as well.

An interview with The Mind of Rey Rey® founder, Rey Rey Rodriguez.

When did you first try cannabis?

I was 13 years old the first time I tried cannabis.  I smoked socially throughout high school, stopped around the age of 19, and then picked it back up in my late 20’s.

What inspired you to smoke?

I always had an admiration for the plant.  Everyone I idolized as a kid, and the people I admire today are all considered potheads. I grew up watching Cheech & Chong’s films, and all my favorite musicians from the 60s till today, as well as my favorite athletes, public figures, and celebrities (Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Mike Tyson, Dave Chappelle, Michael Phelps, Cypress Hill, Snoop, Dre, Biggie, Pac, Nick & Nate Diaz, Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, Eddie Bravo and more) were / are all advocates of the herb.

Two of my favorite podcasts are B Real’s “Smokebox” and Mike Tyson’s “Hotboxin’,” where the hosts interview their guests while smoking.  One of my favorite events to watch is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition called, “High Rollerz,” where the competitors smoke before they compete at the highest level.

No one can say that cannabis is a lazy or unintelligent person’s drug anymore.

What about cannabis do you like or enjoy?

I smoke / vape both Sativa and Indica, which affect me in two completely different ways.

Sativa clears my mind, allowing me to be present and to focus on whatever the current task at hand is.  Whether I’m working, reading, studying, practicing, or doing something else that requires concentration, it allows me to be more present and to dissect, observe, and problem solve better. 

The intensity in which I interpret information heightens, and I find myself, breaking down art, music, movies, body movement, meditation and even memories on a deeper level. My imagination and ideas are more vivid. For me, sativa is good for any physical or mental activity.

I use indica for rest, relaxation, to calm the body and mind when it’s time to wind down, and to fall asleep.  This one helps clear my mind from any worry and stress.  It zones me out, I become one with my mattress and pillow, making my body feel weightless, and filling me with a cooling effect from the darkness as I lay there with my eyes closed.  Indica is perfect when you’re ready to knock out.

What would you say to those that still think cannabis is a dangerous drug?

I don’t think it’s for everyone but, the days of “Reefer Madness” and everyone assuming that pot will make us dumb, slow, brain dead, or will lead us to crack and heroin are behind us.  Cannabis is legal throughout the US in most states either for recreational or medicinal purposes.  Cancer, mental health, athletic recovery, brain trauma, and many other conditions are being treated with cannabis.  I’ve been diagnosed with PTSD, OCD, and ADHD.  I’m not sure if that doctor diagnosed me correctly, but I do know that his recommendation for all of those conditions was marijuana. 

Is there anything you’d recommend to those wanting to learn more about cannabis?

Anyone can do a Google search for most questions.  I like to refer those interested in current information on all things cannabis to visit High Times Magazine’s website.  And anyone that would like to learn a bit of the plant’s history and about the negative propaganda that led to it becoming illegal, should read Jack Herer’s book, “The Emperor Wears No Clothes.”

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019, shortly called COVID-19, has caused an unprecedented and dramatic impact on communities all over the world – including CBD enthusiasts. As governments from different states and countries impose home quarantine and social distancing policies, it is only natural that users of this popular compound are facing drastic changes in their ways of consumption in order to keep up with the protocols.

If you’re one among these users, knowing what the dos and don’ts are when using CBD products like portable vaporizers amid a pandemic is necessary to ensure a safe and fun CBD experience. To help you achieve that, we have prepared a list of the things you need to keep in mind while threats of the deadly disease is still a worldwide problem.

Read on.

Things to Do – How to Use CBD Safely

Buy Only from Reputable Dispensaries

As the health crisis worsens, supplies for resources are also expected to shrink, including CBD. Since there is an ongoing protocol for everyone to stay at home and practice social distancing, some suppliers of cannabidiol are expected to stop their operations. As a result, consumers are to be left with limited store choices, which fraudsters can take advantage for their personal gains.

• 

In times like this, when transactions are primarily done online, it’s best to ensure that the one you’re seeking supply of CBD for is a legit and reliable dispensary.

To prevent the risk of falling victim to criminals, it’s best to limit your options to reputable stores only. Before heading straight into the checkout and providing your credit card information, make a habit of conducting a background check on the site you’re visiting first. Once you’ve verified that the details provided are true and that the store actually operates as a legal supplier, it is then that you can only start picking the products you want to get from the site.

Consider How Much THC the Product Contains

While it’s a popular belief that CBD works best with a little THC, it’s always a safe bet to get a product that only contains as low as the 0.3 percent cutoff required for CBD products. That is exactly what LA Fresh CBD touts in its products.

Primarily, this is because THC works as a psychoactive component, which means taking a dose of it can drive you straight into the cloud nine, or what people call the marijuana “high.” Since the COVID-19 pandemic has left the economy almost immobile, finding yourself in an unpleasant and dangerous level of head high will leave you helpless, as people are expected to stay on their homes, establishments are normally closed, and medical professionals are busy responding to the needs of the swelling number of infected patients.

Don’t Share

Sure, while cannabis enthusiasts live by a communal way of life, now’s not the time to remain faithful to that culture. Essentially, since the novel coronavirus has been proven to be transmittable via respiratory droplets and contact routes, sharing your vaping device with your favorite pals is a big no-no.

Aside from this, although it’s a known fact that CBD oils, gummies, and other related products are more satisfying when shared in groups, practicing social distancing of at least 1 meter or 3 feet is still more important to secure your safety amid the outbreak.

The Bottom Line

In this time of medical and economic upheaval, aligning your every action to what’s proper and necessary should be everyone’s top priority. Sure, while you’re still free to enjoy your favorite CBD products, practicing these necessary measures come as a compulsory action from anyone in the community.

CBD Oil has definitely been gaining ground in various parts of the world, especially in the more progressive socio-political climate of the United States. More than half of the states in the US have legalized cannabis and its cannabinoids for medicinal purposes, while 10 of them has allowed recreational consumption.

Because of the medicinal properties of CBD, a particular chemical compound found in cannabis, more and more people in the United States are taking on a more positive attitude toward cannabidiol. This cannabinoid is also legal in many parts of Europe.

While the relatively positive perception of CBD in more progressive regions comes as no surprise, learning that this compound is becoming a trend in the more conservative country of Japan is fairly unexpected. Read on to know more about CBD oil in the Japanese market.

How Popular is Cannabidiol in Japan?

Cannabidiol is fast gaining popularity in Japan. In fact, it is becoming more popular by 100% year over year. CBD Oil and Cannabidiol products are so popular that they are now available in various health food stores in the country. They come in various kinds, especially in cosmetic products and oils.

Reasons Why Cannabidiol is Popular in the Japanese Market

You may be wondering why this cannabinoid has become so popular in this largely conservative country. Here are some of the factors that contribute to its popularity.

It is Legal in Japan

Perhaps one of the most important reasons why cannabidiol has become so well-liked in Japan is the fact that it is legal. Residents can purchase this product online and offline. However, there are legal guidelines to follow when buying online, especially from abroad. The only legal CBD products are those containing less than 0.03% THC. Any amount over this percentage will be punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a 3 million yen fine.

Because of this, you want to purchase products from a Japanese manufacturer, as they legally produce such items. Buying offline in Japanese stores is the safer bet, especially as those sold within the country are more likely to follow regulations.

If you are curious whether you can cultivate a cannabis plant, even hemp, for CBD, keep in mind that these plants are bound to contain THC levels, which you cannot control as you grow the plant. So, it is safe to say that it is not legal to grow a plant even for cannabidiol.

Its Benefits

Another important factor that contributed to the popularity of this cannabinoid is that it is known to have skincare and health benefits. In terms of skincare, CBD is known to regulate the skin, which means that you can use it to control sebum production if over-oiliness is your problem, and it can also increase it if dry skin is the issue. Infused products include toners, serums and creams.

In terms of health and wellness, this compound has been proven to be effective in pain relief, anti-inflammation, energy-boosting, mood-enhancing and anti-stress. It also has calming and relaxing effects, perfect for those struggling with mental health issues.

Ms. World Japan’s CBD Oil Brand

Ms. World Japan 2016 Priyanka Yoshikawa also contributed to boosting the demand for this compound. She launched her own brand of infused products, focusing primarily on skincare and oils. With the support of such a prominent figure, this chemical is bound to gain popularity in the country.

Japan is taking the next step toward health and wellness with its lenient policies on CBD products. With this country acknowledging the benefits of such products, this cannabinoid is definitely getting the recognition it deserves.

Cannabis products and the plant itself may be becoming more mainstream in the United States but there are places in which adult-use recreational marijuana remains prohibited. Because of this, a lot of people who want to consume legal cannabis and experience the freedom of using the plant in a legitimate environment choose to participate in cannabis tourism.

What exactly is Cannabis Tourism?

This is a subset of tourism that has been rising in the past few years when marijuana is gaining mainstream recognition. If you are not familiar with this, just think about other types of tourism. Cultural tourism is the kind where travelers aim to experience and take part in the culture of the destination, while medical tourism is the type where tourists go to a destination to seek healthcare.

With this, it is easy to understand that cannabis tourism is a subset in which tourists go to places where they can consume legal marijuana. This offers the peace of mind of consuming the plant in a safe and potentially more accepting environment. Moreover, this gives travelers the chance to try out unique marijuana and CBD products that are only available in your destination of choice.

Planning on going on a trip and take part in the destination’s cannabis tourism industry? Here are 4 important tips you should remember:

• Research about and comply with marijuana laws

As a tourist, the responsible thing to do is to do your research about the place you are planning to visit. One of the first things you should review is the laws in the place. You do not want to get entangled in any kind of legal issues, particularly marijuana-related ones. For example, did you know that Amsterdam is planning to ban tourists from buying marijuana products? Failing to know this can lead to headaches and wasted money. Make sure you check your local laws to make sure you are compliant. For more information on all things cannabis including seeds, visit the Amsterdam Seedshop website.

Aside from knowing cannabis-related laws that cover your destination, you want to make sure that you comply with the laws. This includes the amount you are allowed to carry on your person to the places where you can purchase legal products.

• Respect the local culture

All kinds of hobby and enthusiast groups have developed a culture that can be unique to the place’s particular community. If you come from a place where you have a certain set of norms and accepted behaviors, you cannot expect other communities to have the same set of values. This is why research is important. It lets you know what to do and what not to do when it comes to marijuana. Of course, you must respect the local culture as a tourist.

• Seek out unique experiences

The reason you are going on a tour is to experience new things that you could not in your home state or country. Because of this, you want to make sure that you get the most out of your trip by seeking out unique strains and products. You might also want to look for establishments that offer one-of-a-kind experiences such as cannabis cafes, bus tours, and other similar places and activities.

• Consult local budtenders

Not sure where to start? The best way to go is to find a dispensary and consult the budtender. These individuals are familiar with the place’s laws and culture. Moreover, you can also expect them to be knowledgeable about products and experiences that could be worth your while.

Going on a cannabis tour is definitely one of the must-have experiences any cannabis enthusiast should have. This way, they can expand their horizon by checking out what communities in other places have to offer. It can also serve as a networking and research opportunity for those planning to launch their own business.

On February 27, we will be celebrating World Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) Day. This day is dedicated to recognizing and aiding the works of NGOs across the globe. It was started by several countries such as Denmark, Estonia, Finland, and Germany. Today, it is celebrated by a lot of countries and organizations, making one of the most internationally recognized days.

This coming February 27, cannabis consumers like you can participate in the celebration of World NGO Day in your own way. Of course, as patients or enthusiasts of the pant, you can incorporate cannabis products into your event. Wondering how? Here are 4 ideas for doing so:

Create a Charity Event Discussing CBD Oil Benefits

Countries and organizations that celebrate this day usually organize conferences that talk about the value of non-profit organizations. These events usually discuss developments in the field and strategies that can be used to boost the activities of and support for these organizations.

Because of this, why not organize a mini-event similar to this? You can organize a symposium talking about the plant, the benefits of CBD and other cannabinoids, as well as the socio-economic and political need to legalize cannabis. During this, you can sell products and donate the proceeds to an NGO of your choice.

This is a good way to share well-researched information about the plant and enlighten your audience about the implications of proper marijuana laws. At the same time, this offers an opportunity to participate in the celebration of World NGO Day.

Purchase from Dispensaries that Donate to NGOs

A charity event can be pretty hard to pull off. So, why not go the easier route by simply purchasing CBD oil and other products from dispensaries that do charity work through NGO donations. This lets you purchase the products you want and need while also making sure that you do your part in giving back to the community.

To find the right dispensaries for this, you might want to do your research first. A simple Google search can help you find the right shop to choose from. However, you might want to get familiar with the NGO first, so why not approach your local budtender to know if they donate to charity and what kind of programs they support?

Donate Straight to Cannabis NGOs

If you want to contribute to cannabis-focused charities, then donating or volunteering directly with such NGOs. This is a great way to help showcase the plant as a medical and lifestyle aid. Moreover, you can also opt for an org that promotes legalization and education about cannabis. By going straight to organizations such as NORML, you can be an active advocate for the plant. You can even continue participating in this org after World NGO Day!

Voice Your Support for NGOs

Those who are active in the cannabis community knows how important creating a conversation is. This lets people add their voices into the discussion, letting them share facts, experiences and thoughts. This is a great way to spread awareness about the plant.

Similarly, adding your voice to support NGOs is a great way to get people to talk about the importance of such orgs. With this, you can convince your friends and family to donate and volunteer in their chosen organizations. Allowing you to give back to the community by getting more people to contribute.

 

The world needs more people and organizations who exist not for profit but for giving back to their respective communities. By participating in the celebrations of World NGO Day, you can be one of these people while using cannabis as a platform and advocacy.

The festive season is around us, and with it brings the need to celebrate everything that happened in 2019. Not to mention, a proper celebration allows us to ring in the new year with a bang. What better way to celebrate this than with your trusty cannabis and CBD oil, right?

Before you get ahead of yourself, celebrating with cannabis comes with a lot of responsibilities. Apart from adhering to certain state laws and regulations, you also need to be mindful of the people around you and their preferences. In the same way, you also need to obtain your goods from licensed dispensaries and pharmacies.

Now that these pesky regulations are out of the way, here’s what you should know when celebrating with marijuana and CBD oil products.

Why Have Cannabis on New Year?

Cannabis has always been celebrated by fanatics, now more than ever because of the legalization that’s slated to take place come the first of January 2020. Though many states and countries have already provided medical marijuana, there are more states are taking their love for this plant even further.

Cannabis is known to treat certain illnesses and conditions, especially aiding in pain management. However, this also comes with a mind-altering effect due to its psychoactive component called tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). While many individuals get to ‘enjoy’ these, there are also people who frown upon its psychoactive component and what it can do. Because of this, finding another solution might work in your favor.

CBD Oil as Reliable Alternatives

Unfortunately, not every state has legalized recreational cannabis. In the unfortunate event, this falls in your area, you can opt for other safer and more legal alternatives – all without the unwanted effects of THC.

One of the more popular options available on the market is cannabidiol or CBD oil. This potent and downright powerful product provides most, if not all the benefits that come from cannabidiol. From pain management to treating insomnia, this is no doubt as to why this is celebrated as one of the revolutionary creations of all time.

CBD Oil and MJ Consumption

For states, countries, and areas that have legalized cannabis consumption, good for you. But for areas which require a little bit of a push from the local and federal government, sticking to cannabidiol might be a good choice. Below are some guidelines you need to heed when celebrating with this compound.

• Eat Your CBD Edibles Early

To make sure you celebrate the year right and with a bang, remember to eat your edibles at least two hours before the stroke of midnight. This way, you can feel its effects as the ball drops. Not to mention, this will leave you feeling calm and collected even amidst the bustle and the fireworks.

• Lace Your Food and Drinks with CBD Oil Products

While gummies and other edibles will work just fine, you can also create your own menu designed to celebrate the occasion and to highlight your guest of honor. Do this by making soups or salads with some drops of CBD oil or infusing the roast beef with some good ol’ cannabutter.

If you want a more modern take to beverages, you can also experiment with adding and infusing cocktails with the cannabidiol product of your choice.

• Offer Other Goods

Let’s face it, not everyone is into cannabidiol and cannabis and that’s okay. If you are having guests over, don’t forget to label the goods that are made with CBD. At the same time, provide other food options and activities which non-users and consumers can enjoy. This way, you are making an inclusive step to make everyone feels good in their element. Think of this as a great start for the year.

The Bottom Line

Now that you know what etiquette and regulations to observe, you can finally ring in the new year with good health and optimum wellness with cannabidiol. What are your plans for the upcoming holidays?
