Love is in the air and if you are looking for a special gift for your sweetheart consider CBD. For couples it should be valentines every day, not just one day of the year. We all get so busy with work and life stresses that we do not often consider what it is doing not only to our relationships but also our overall health. Stress can lead to different health issues such as high blood pressure, insomnia, depressed immune response and yes heart problems… pun intended. CBD can have positive effects on health leading to benefits in improving your relationship. Improving your health can trickle down other aspects of your life so you feel like doing small things together that make a big difference even just taking a walk.
Women and men alike are affected by stress although it can manifest in different ways. Stress can cause anxiety and lack of sleep and even cause physical pain in the body. All of these can decrease desire for intimacy and further damage our relationships. Lack of sleep, pain, feelings of rejection or inadequacy continue to exacerbate the issues and in turn continue to snowball to performance issues leading to further withdrawal from your partner. It is a downward spiral of chain reactions caused by external stresses our body and mind fail to handle appropriately. It is rarely a lack of love or concern for each other that is the cause of this type of heart problem. The heart is an organ but also symbolizes love and passion, so it makes sense that our emotional, mental, spiritual, and relational well-being can affect the physical organ. Women are particularly affected emotionally; it is a known fact that our ability as women to enjoy intimacy is tied to our emotional state. It is sometimes difficult for both men and women to turn off our minds and put away the cares of the day and just be present with our partner in the moment. We get in our heads about it; negative thinking, we are not loved, we are inadequate or at fault for our failing relationships.
How Can CBD Help?
Well, CBD can help in several different ways. CBD can help relieve stress and anxiety giving us the ability to put the stresses that are overwhelming us into perspective. It produces a calming effect by triggering our body to make anandamide which is known as the bliss molecule. Anandamide plays on the reward center of the brain just like serotonin or dopamine giving you a sense of peace, calm and relaxation. CBD works to regulate all the systems of your body including circulation, digestion, hormones, sleep, anxiety, blood pressure, pain and they are all connected. When you relax you lower your blood pressure and increase circulation which some studies have shown CBD can have a protective effect on the heart and in turn can improve heart health again pun intended.
Increased circulation can help with issues of ED through vasodilation. Cannabis is a vasodilator as well as anti-inflammatory. Depression, anxiety, and blood pressure are also other contributing factors of ED that CBD may be able to improve. You should always talk to your doctor before starting a CBD regimen especially if you are on medications such as blood thinners and anti-depressants which are a few types of medications that can also contribute to ED in men and lack of desire in women. It is important to talk to your partner about the possibilities and find solutions together. Having the difficult and sometimes uncomfortable conversations can also be a step in building the deep intimacy we crave.
There are different ways to use or consume cannabis products for health. 1st and foremost, ingestion of CBD is how we activate our endocannabinoid system the (ECS) to bring about homeostasis systemically. 2nd, topical application is also helpful. Although topically it is not going to activate the ECS it will help in localized areas to help reduce inflammation and pain. One of my favorite topicals is CBD massage oil. It is the gift that keeps on giving in our home. My husband and I take turns giving each other massages. Massage is important because touch is vital to our physical, mental, and relational health. Massage can help relax the body and the mind, relieve aching muscles, and stimulate blood flow and
circulation. Don’t underestimate the power of massage in cultivating intimacy with your sweetheart this Valentine’s Day and every other day throughout the year.
