Why CBD should be part of your Self-Care Routine

Making CBD part of your Self-Care Routine and Why.

Trends come and go, particularly in the health and wellness realm, but rarely does a trend revolutionize the entire health industry like cannabidiol (CBD). Now a staple of wellness routines everywhere, CBD continues to garner praise for its remarkable health benefits. From professional athletes and weekend warriors to innovative self-care influencers around the world, everyone is discovering the seemingly endless benefits of CBD products.

What is cannabidiol (CBD) and how can it help with self-care?

Most importantly, CBD is all-natural and not a foreign substance we are applying on or putting into our bodies. The human body makes its own cannabidiol which attaches to receptors called the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) located throughout our bodies to maintain balance and homeostasis. When stress, over-use or exertion upset that balance, CBD derived from hemp plants is a naturally occurring chemical compound that replaces and rebalances our body’s own supply of naturally occurring cannabidiol.  These benefits come with little to no side effects and unlike its cousin tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD is not intoxicating and doesn’t cause the “high” feeling associated with using THC.

How to use and benefit with CBD in daily self-care?

The good news is CBD has a long history of being used to treat a range of maladies and ailments from a Chinese Emperor’s CBD-infused teas for memory, rheumatism, and gout to Queen Victoria’s menstrual cramps. Modern science, pre-clinical studies and anecdotal evidence have shown promise in using CBD.

Even better news is the variety of ways to incorporate CBD into your self-care routine. CBD oils placed under the tongue provide a quick, effective way to get CBD into your body working where you need it most. Topical formulations combine CBD with other botanicals and all-natural ingredients to deliver CBD at the point of discomfort and soothe and nurture the skin at the same time. Incorporating CBD into routine massages is the latest trend for “spreading” the self-love your body needs.

Don’t miss out on the possible therapeutic benefits of CBD in your self-care routine. Now, more than ever, taking responsibility of our health and wellness and being proactive is essential. CBD is a trend that has become a standard in an all-natural approach to self-care. The science is supporting the stories of countless people who’ve incorporated CBD into their daily lives.
