Can CBD Oil Tinctures Work For Reducing Your Anxiety? ⋆ Earth and Water

As soon as CBD oil started to become popular, people started asking me about it. Of course, CBD oil and essential oils are 2 branches of the same science but I hadn’t thought anything about CBD until recently.

I’ve been on a journey to cure my anxiety for at least 6 years now. Riddled with various forms of anxiety throughout my life, I have tried it ALL. About 2 months ago it really topped out and I found myself in an emergency care unit with a doctor asking me what I expected from him. I was desperate for some relief and no one could help me. CBD was up to bat.

I tried various forms of the oil, stopping in at a local CBD store first. The water soluble, which was suggested to me by the store owner was the first I tried but found it had little effect on me.

I can honestly say I’m really glad I didn’t write it off after my first failed attempt. The 2nd try, with this new company and new product has helped me make leaps and bounds in progress.

What it CBD?

In a cannabis plant, there are many components and chemicals that do various things. THC and CBD are the most well known. THC is the psycho active part and CBD is the calming part.

Throughout recent years, we have learned how to tinker with the components of this plant so that it has different effects on the user. Unfortunately, what we also see is that the higher the THC levels in a particular strain, the lower CBD levels it has.

This means, for the casual user who isn’t use to the effects of the plant, it can result in extreme paranoia and anxiety. I learned that from Netflix’s new series “Explained” which I highly recommend watching. They’re only 15-20 minute long episodes.

But just as we’ve been more interested in the psycho active parts, we’ve also been interested in the calming and healing parts and thus, have also engineered ways to extract just the calming component; Pure CBD, which has none of the psycho active properties of THC. Pure, bottled calm. Something a ton of us could use in the ‘Age of Anxiety’.

CBD Brand

Just like essential oils and supplements, CBD oil is in an unregulated limbo. This means it’s easy for people to bottle one thing and label it as another. This makes getting your CBD products from a reliable source very important. As I noted earlier, the first CBD products I tried produced no results that I could notice. Were these fake oils or sub par? I dunno. There’s really no way to know unless I take the products to a lab to be tested.

After fumbling around the CBD market of overpriced products that are questionable at best, it’s a breath of fresh air to have a brand you can trust. As a Taurus, my loyalty is important and they’ve won it.

CBD Oil Tincture

In the month I’ve been using a CBD tincture, I’ve only had 1 day of anxiety! Something that is phenomenal for me. I’ve never felt calmer and more at peace in my life and it’s a dream come true that I’ve found myself in a state of being that I never thought possible.

I honestly had to google how to take it! You place 5ml or half a dropper full under your tongue and hold it there for about 30 seconds before you swallow. This allows it to be absorbed directly into your blood stream, effecting you sooner.

The tincture is made with grape seed oil, hemp seed oil, fractionated coconut oil and terpenes. It has a pleasant taste of the grape seed oil and works really quickly to calm my nerves. They have 3 different options depending on your desired use; Morning, All Day and Night. All with varying degrees of concentration (300mg-1500mg) so that you can customize your products to fit your needs.

CBD Therapeutic Salve

I’m allergic to soy. This leaves me unable to use chapstick. I was making my own but this has given me a new option! It’s also helpful in healing damaged skin, which was useful after a cold left me with a raw nose and pain relief properties which helped ease ovulation pains I was having!

It’s really been a very versatile product in my life. It contains Cocoa butter, shea butter, coconut oil, hemp seed oil, grape seed oil, terpenes and CBD isolate. Also available in varying concentrations and either ‘All Day’ or ‘Therapeutic’ so that you’re getting exactly what you need. It has an earthy, grape seed smell to it that I find quite comforting.
