Health Benefits Of Combining Cannabis and Yoga

-

Speaking from my perch as a personal trainer, health and fitness advocate, and a happy contentedd stoner I can unequivacally state that Katrina and Tony have hit on a fabulous idea to bring more enjoyment and enhanced well being to cannabis enthusiasts.

On to the article...


Stoner - Business owners Katrina and Tony have spun two amazing things together, cannabis and yoga. A new and growing trend of canna-yoga, is taking the recreational and medical states by storm and Herb N’ Yoga is no exception! By blending cannabis with the therapy of yoga, it promotes relaxation and can bring you to a higher level of consciousness. The studies are clear on the cannabinoids, THC and CBD. The American Cancer Society states that THC “can help relieve pain and nausea, reduce inflammation, and can act as an antioxidant.” It also states CBD, “can help treat seizures, and can reduce anxiety and paranoia.” According to the Livestrong Foundation, marijuana “can help reduce symptoms of muscle tension or muscular aches or pains.” Muscle tightness, spasms, and twitching are all found to decrease when smoking marijuana. Sounds like a perfect match doesn’t it?

Katrina’s eight year career in the healthcare field prepared her with a special insight into a bio-individual, holistic approach. After being offered a high paying position in her field, she discovered the modern medical world was no longer in alignment with her personal beliefs and set out on a path of alternative wellness options. Tony, meanwhile, has built his career excelling in management, training, leadership and dedicating himself to serving others and giving them a high quality customer service experience. On this path, her and her husband have been changing their nutrition and lifestyle in order to ease symptoms of depression and anxiety. Slowly through the art of meditation, yoga, natural healing, and improved nutritional habits, they are showing their family and community a better path to their relationship with food and the art of yoga.

After a dedicated home practice, Katrina decided a transition to yoga therapist made the most sense. Teaching, volunteering and helping others is their uniting passion. Once they found the connection between cannabis use and their love for yoga, there was no stopping them; All they needed was a catchy name! Their goal is to build a bridge between the cannabis connoisseur and yoga enthusiasts.

Right now classes are available at the Patient Grower Network (PGN) Lodge, every Saturday from 4:00 to 5:00pm with an obvious break at 4:20. BYOB! (bring your own bud). Cost for a class is $5.00 with PGN’s additional $5 door fee.

PGN is located at 4090 Cherry Ave. in Keizer, Oregon 97303. It is a membership lodge where you can consume on site and they have events with information available on their facebook page.

  America's reason the the will of the voters are suppressed, ignored, and or rejected. Conservative Republicans and little if anything else is the reason . They simply hate democracy and the will of the people. Even when it is good for the people, the nation, and the overall health, serenity, and peace of the people. It ain't gonna get better or change any time soon. Unless the people vote the conservative republican authoritarians out of office. Which as we know would be a spectacularly good thing! On to the article. Forbes - . ..  Recent polling suggests more than two-thirds of Americans want adult-use cannabis legalized. And though polling isn’t the most reliable indicator of voter behavior, legal cannabis’s undefeated record at the ballot box last November is a strong signal that with weed, citizens’ choices in the voting booth reflect the desires voiced to opinion-takers. Elected officials and the courts are a different matter. In five states where voters have either pas

Mississippi Supreme Court Overturns the Will of the People

We are a nation founded on the principal of self rule . In many ways and in many states that principal is honored and the will of the people is heard and it becomes law. But certainly not in all states and not in every case and every state. Such is the state in Mississippi. Story below. Cannabis Business Executive - Mississippi was supposed to join dozens of other states with medical marijuana programs. People looking to grow and dispense marijuana for medical purposes were making plans, some spending millions on land and buildings. Those eligible under the list of 22 debilitating conditions were counting on it come August. On Friday, the Mississippi Supreme Court flipped that reality upside down. Its  decision to overrule a voter-approved medical marijuana initiative  has sparked outrage from several organizations. Some have started petitions, one coalition called for a boycott of the city of Madison — its mayor filed the lawsuit that was before the court — and another is planning a r
