Get Elevated with Ganja Yoga
No matter your skill level, I would highly recommend trying cannabis to enhance your yoga practice, or really any physical activity. Cannabis stimulates the endocannabinoid system inside your body – the same system that regulates the “runner’s high.” Continue reading Get Elevated with Ganja Yoga
How I Became A Medical Marijuana Advocate
I would love to thank the nonprofit org CannaEffect for publishing my medical marijuana story on their website! Ever since I started this blog with my message, the support has been pleasantly surprising.
