The medicinal use of CBD has completely revolutionized how many people view cannabis and cannabis culture. Since the War on Drugs, marijuana has been haunted by propaganda and misinformation campaigns. Even the more recent stereotypes of “stoners” who only eat, play video games, and sleep, are starting to be wiped away.
Marijuana has played an imperative role in both modern and traditional art, whether that’s in painting or music, most modern artforms have a category dedicated to the plant. Whether it’s the visionary art of Alex and Allyson Grey, or Bob Marley’s timeless reggae, cannabis culture has a lot to offer. For those who are just starting with authentic CBD UK, there are elements of cannabis culture which can enhance your experience of taking CBD.
Here are some ways that cannabis culture can enhance your CBD use.
Music
While it seems we don’t fully understand the effect that music has on us psychologically, most people are acquainted with the benefits it brings. Sometimes we listen to songs to express how we feel, other times we listen to music which is thematic to our situation or environment. Music is just as capable of getting us up and moving, as it is of getting us nice and relaxed.
When it comes to taking your CBD oil, especially for anxiety relief, try listening to some music inspired by marijuana while it kicks in. It may serve to comfort you while the CBD kicks in, and can give you some context to the relationship that marijuana has had with humanity.
Shuffle
If you’re not sure where to start, we have some suggestions for some great songs inspired by marijuana:
- Bob Marley – Anything by him as he was a huge advocate for marijuana (reggae)
- Brewer & Shipley – One Toke Over the Line (country)
- Black Sabbath – Sweet Leaf (heavy metal)
- Doja Cat – So High (modern pop)
- Rick James – Mary Jane (funk)
- Sublime – Smoke Two Joints (alt rock)
- Snoop Dogg – Young, Wild, and Free (hip hop)
Art
As with music, we haven’t quite identified exactly how art affects our psyche, but we’ve all experienced how it feels to be “moved” by a painting or drawing. Unlike music though, most people don’t utilize art in their daily lives other than through social media platforms like Instagram. Again, as with music, marijuana has permeated almost every genre of art, giving us a variety of mediums in which to appreciate it.
As the viewing of art can be quite a personal experience, we recommend doing so if you take CBD oil after work (for pain or anxiety relief). Looking at art while your CBD kicks in can help you to relax and help you visually perceive your own personal relationship with marijuana.
Gallery
While you don’t necessarily need marijuana-inspired art to enjoy while feeling the effects of your CBD oil, there are some great artists who are proudly inspired by this plant. Here are some suggestions:
- Alex and Allyson Grey’s Visionary Art (psychedelic art)
- Vincent Gordon (cartoon art)
- Dan Colen (photography for Life magazine)
- Ricardo Cortes (illustrated art)
- Tom Sachs (videography)
- Robert Arneson (sculpture art)
Television and Video Games
Stereotypes aside, the television is undeniably the one of stoner’s best friends, as it allows for a stream of uninterrupted entertainment. This can be just as true for those who are taking CBD, especially for anxiety relief, as you may feel relaxed enough to watch things you may otherwise dislike.
Change the Channel
While you won’t necessarily need to find a TV show inspired by marijuana to enjoy with your CBD, there are some which can’t be missed. Our favorite weed-inspired TV shows include:
- That 70s Show – a classic 90s show about the 70s which is always an easy watch
- Weeds – a modern show about a suburban mother who turns to growing weed as a hustle
- Ideal – a UK-based TV show about a Welsh hash dealer
- Workaholics – a show about three stoners who work as telemarketers
- Cooking on High / Cooked with Cannabis – marijuana cooking shows
However if you find that your mind is still a little overactive, even after your dose of authentic CBD oil, then you may find solace in video games. This doesn’t necessarily mean buying an expensive control to play Call of Duty in high definition though, even free games on your Android or iPhone can suffice.
Philosophy
Last but not least, philosophical thinking and ideas are a favored pastime of many stoners. If you find your mind wandering after your daily dose of authentic CBD oil, try looking up some philosophical ideas to contemplate. These can take you on a mental journey which can enlighten you about previously mysterious aspects of your life or life as a whole.
