THOUGHTS ON CBD

Y’all… I have to let you in on a secret. I’ve never tried Marijuana. No gummy bears, no smoking no brownies… nada. After my loss and surgery, I was really struggling with falling asleep and anxiety. When someone suggested I try CBD for my anxiety and sleeplessness, all sorts of things ran through my mind. What was CBD? Isn’t this basically Marijuana? Would I get high from taking it? Would I be able to parent? Is this dangerous? So many questions.

After doing some research, I decided I’d give it a try… I mean, who doesn’t love a good nights sleep right? I was beginning to feel desperate for my mind to slow down enough to even fall asleep… I was so riddled with my anxiety and thoughts that I couldn’t stop thinking. It was like the stars aligned because shortly after doing some research, Equilibria approached me to try out their line of CBD products and I was instantly taken by this company.

I’ve shared on Instagram how much I’m loving the product and have been taking it now for a full month and y’all… I could go on and on raving about how good this product is. I want to share how I’m using this product, a little bit about what I’ve learned, and how I believe it’s helped me.

What I’ve learned about CBD products:

First, You won’t get high… as EQ says, “not even if you tried” because CBD products contain less than 0.3% of THC making it legal and non intoxicating. Second, CBD is a natural ingredient found within hemp flowers, it’s a cannabinoid. We have a built in endocannabinoid system (ECS) that needs to be regulated. Our ECS plays a crucial role in our mood, energy levels, and how we expereince pain, stress and hunger. Using Cannabinoids, we can help regulate the above.

How I’m using the products:

Equilibria has three amazing products that go hand in hand; The Daily Softgels, Daily Drops, and Relief Cream. I start the day off with a single dose of the Daily Softgel, but sometimes I’ll double up on the Daily Softgels if I know I’ll be in any sort of high stress situation. I use the EQ Relief Cream whenever I’ve got a sore muscle or even tightness. I often get soreness in my jaw from TMJ and using the EQ Relief Cream at night has provided so much relief. Lastly, I use the Daily Drops right before bed or if I instantly need a “calm” moment.

Why I love the Product:

I wasn’t sure if I’d really stick with using CBD products after the initial trial but I’m so glad that I did. These products have helped me so much with falling and staying asleep. I feel like I actually get a full nights rest which is so refreshing! My body feels the effects of the products from sleep to anxiousness and it’s really showing in my level of calm lately. I feel like I can handle just about anything thrown at me in a calm fashion and that feels really nice.

Why Equilibria:

Easy, it’s a woman own company that’s goal is to restore balance to the lives of women. Not only are the focused on women but they’re farm fresh! They’re CBD is sourced straight from a farm, right here in the United States, Colorado to be exact. With the exception of the Daily Gels, their products are Vegan too! There is a level of transparency to knowing what is being put into their products that is unrivaled and I so appreciate that. And lastly, (maybe least important but it’s a reason to love Equilibira none the less) can you deny the beauty of this packaging? For someone in a tiny home with little storage, these products sit on my bathroom counter and look so beautiful doing so
