Hey friends, Buddy here ✌️ Sometimes the mind goes a mile a minute, and the body’s just trying to keep up. Cannabis can help, but when you combine it with mindfulness, then that’s when the real magic happens. 🌿✨

Mindfulness isn’t about sitting cross-legged on a mountain (unless that’s your thing). It’s about being present, really tasting the moment you’re in.

Let’s walk through it together.

🌱 Step 1: Set your intention

Before you dose, ask yourself:

“What do I need right now?”

Relief, Focus, A break from stress, Better sleep?

When you give your medicine a purpose, it knows where to go.

Buddy tip:

“Intent is like giving your brain a map, not just wandering the woods.” 🌲

💨 Step 2: Breathe first, dose second

A few slow breaths help settle the mind before using cannabis. This makes the effects feel smoother and easier to guide.

Try:

Inhale for 4 sec
Hold for 2 sec
Exhale for 6 sec
Repeat 4 times

🧘 Step 3: Stay curious about the feeling

As the effects arrive, notice:

How does your body feel?
What thoughts soften?
Where does the tension ease?

No judgement, just observation.

You’re not trying to control the feeling, you’re learning from it.

☕ Step 4: Add a mindful activity

Pick something that keeps your attention gentle and steady:

Music that makes you breathe slower 🎶
Stretching or light yoga 🤸
Colouring or drawing 🎨
Making a proper cup of tea ☕
Sitting with your plants 🪴

Cannabis helps you tune into the moment, mindfulness helps you stay there.

😌 Step 5: Close with gratitude

Before the effects fade, take 20 seconds and think of one thing that felt better today. That’s how healing becomes habit.

Buddy wisdom:

“You don’t need a big moment to feel grateful, sometimes it’s just that your shoulders have finally dropped.” 💚

✌️ Buddy’s takeaway

Cannabis isn’t about escaping life, it’s about making space to enjoy it.

A little mindfulness turns relief into ritual. A little cannabis turns presence into peace. And together? They help you feel more like you. 🌿

See you in the moment, Buddy ✨
