Article: Chew Away Anxiety
Our main feature today is Susun Weed, a famous herbalist who shares some insights into using cannabis along with other green allies for health & wellbeing. We invited her to introduce you to the world of herbs because, particularly if you use cannabis medicinally, you may find that there are other plants that may be of positive benefits to your health issues. As a "Wise Woman", she also shares numerous insights, of a deeper nature, into working with and honoring the plants that share their life with you.
We invited Benny from Cannitrol to share with you about their fine herbal product. These capsules are formulated with a blend of herbs designed to help you ease the withdrawal symptoms if you need to abruptly stop using cannabis for a variety of reasons (personal choice, a tolerance T-break, legal imposition, jobs, etc). The founder of the Summit, having quit recently to ensure the safety of the Summit, would highly recommend that people use Cannitrol or similar herbs to help them get through the somewhat unpleasant symptoms of quitting. If you wish to try Cannitrol then use the coupon code "summit" at the time of checkout from their website to receive a discount.
Sean Zarilli shares their innovative "7 Leaf Drying Rack" from CTS Innovators. This product should be owned by everyone that grows & harvests herbs, whether that be cannabis or other garden varieties (ie. mint, savory, sage, etc.). This great product is housed disassembled in a quality nylon carrying bag, and it can be quickly put together to conveniently hold a surprising amount of herbs in such a small area. Far better than using a wide clothesline or a net that flattens your herbs, you may easily turn your herbs around and carry the bundle to another location. If you grow your own cannabis or other medicinal / culinary herbs in your garden, then be sure to check out this innovative product for yourself.
Finally our article for the day shares with you two herbs that you may find particularly beneficial if you experience some light anxiety. Many regular cannabis users self medicate with a toke to help alleviate their anxiety, and some who smoke sativa strains may even find that it causes anxiety for them. Either way, there are other herbs that may help. This article reveals two herbs that are easily purchased, legally, in health food stores, and shares an uncommon method of administration that for many may be a superior way to make use of the herbs.
Susun Weed
Susun Weed - Wise Woman About All Kinds Of Weeds - SusunWeed.com
With a name like Susun *WEED* you might assume that she is some big cannabis connoisseur, activist, or pot smoker, but no, that's not who she is at all. Susun is actually an incredibly Wise Woman knowledgeable about herbs, not just "the herb". She is probably the most famous herbalist around today, and Googling for even a minute or two about herbs will likely result in you stumbling across one of her websites, or others referencing her. Many herbalists today have learned from Susun (via her books or online), including Bobby (founder of this Summit), and she is certainly worthy of our respect & admiration. We invited Susun to introduce the world of herbs to those of you who use "the herb" for medicinal purposes. The world is full of powerful medicinal herbs, and chances are that the ailments you are dealing with may be helped by appropriate use of natures' pharmacy. Towards the end of the interview she touches upon some herbs that may be of benefit to many of you to nurture & support your health, though it would be well worth your efforts to study herbs in far greater depth to learn how to help yourself with your specific needs. Susun's websites and books are good places to start with that journey. Susun also shares some thoughts about how to use cannabis medicinally, and I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised by some of her answers (not what I expected at all). We also asked Susun to share some spiritual insights regarding working with Cannabis, and she indulged us with a wealth of inspiring thoughts. Ironically, the entire interview went completely backwards from what was intended, as though we were working through the prepared list of questions backwards, and somehow it just worked out better that way. The main topic intended to be discussed, introducing other healing herbs, is towards the end of the call. The call was perfect for what it was, and simply put this interview is rich with Wisdom to be appreciated in several ways. Hopefully, after listening to this call, you will come to appreciate all herbs, including cannabis, with a deeper respect, and perhaps you'll devote some of your time broadening your understanding of how to work with our green allies for better health.
Benny from Cannitrol
Benny - Cannabis Withdrawl Symptoms - Cannitrol.com
As a result of quitting cannabis use by in order to protect this Summit, the founder discovered that abruptly stopping regular cannabis (used for health reasons) did have unpleasant effects, which led to discovering Cannitrol. We asked Benny to discuss the subject of cannabis withdrawal symptoms as many cannabis users may at some time have to discontinue using cannabis and may want to know how to make it easier on themselves. Now Benny was a lot shyer during the interview than the initial conversations, but there is plenty of information within the call explaining the symptoms along with strategies of how to deal with them. It is important to mention here, so as not to alarm people that cannabis is NOT anywhere near as addictive as many other substances (even coffee is considered to be far more addicting) and it is relatively easy to quit. For habitual users, quitting cold turkey, may have some unpleasant withdrawal effects, though compared to many other substances (such as alcohol, tobacco, opiates) cannabis is not severe. Please Google this topic or talk to your doctor if this topic is of interest to you.
