As perceptions of cannabis change and it becomes more widely legalized, more women are thinking about incorporating cannabis into their wellness routines. The canna-mamas, in particular, are becoming more open about their cannabis use and exploring its potential benefits for relaxation, stress relief, and overall well-being.

By sharing their benefits, they lessen the stigma associated with cannabis consumption and assist other mothers in stepping out of the “green closet.”  We appreciate these mothers sharing with us. 

Here’s what they have to say…

As a mother of twins, maintaining balance, health, and emotional well-being is paramount. For me, cannabis serves as one tool among many in achieving this balance. It helps alleviate stress and promote a sense of calm, allowing me to be a more patient and present parent.

Cannabis helps me manage my stress levels so I can “chill.” Cannabis not only helps me become a better Mom but also a happier Mom!

Cannabis really mellows me out, helps me get present and arrive so I can turn off the to-do list and really be there with my son in the time we have together. My mind is more open, flexible and expansive, and I find that I’m more gentle and loving with myself and my family.

Mindful use of cannabis has helped me cultivate a sense of harmony and cooperation in my home and family life. I feel more inwardly peaceful when my endocannabinoid system is balanced, which in turn helps me set that vibe for my entire family. Cannabis also helps me slow down and really listen to what my kids are communicating, which is key for our ongoing connection and relationship.

It helps me to be a more present and intent driven parent. When I can stop to “untangle the knots,” I can better plan and execute for both my toddler and my teenager, which in itself requires a certain duality. Cannabis is one of the things that helps me stay grounded and grateful for the moments that seem annoying but ultimately become the memories I’ll miss as they get older.

Cannabis mellows me out; it relaxes me and gets my creative vibe going. It helps me with my work, life, family, and balance. It assists with my morning meditation and setting my intentions for the day.

Cannabis supports my role as a mom in different ways. It allows me to get better sleep and be rested for the everyday mom hustle. It alleviates stress, allowing me to be more present and conscious of my kids needs. It helps with body aches and hormonal balance, By staying healthier and taking care of myself in a natural way, I create a healthier environment for my kids.
