I am going to be honest. The first time I ever heard of CBD oils and any other CBD products for a matter of fact I would instantly be like “OH HECK NO! I AM NOT ABOUT TO GET HIGH!”
Obviously, if you know anything about CBD oils, cbd skin care products..etc you would know that is not even possible to get “HIGH” like you would with the typical Marijuana you hear about. So before I get into my new mommy must haves that involve CBD let me first educate you on what exactly it is.
What is CBD?
First, there is something called THC. That is what you can find in marijuana plants. THC is found in high quantities in marijuana and low quantities in hemp. THC is the chemical responsible for most of marijuana’s psychological effects. (Something I def. don’t want) So, CBD is non-psychoactive which means that it will not get you high. When you purchase anything with CBD it will let you know the percentage of THC or if there isn’t any at all.
Benefits of CBD
CBD also activates other receptors that affect the health of the body. There are mulitple benefits. Me being a stay at home mom of two can be stressful. My kids aren’t perfect and I am not afraid to admit that. I love my kids so much and would do anything for them but hey sometimes it can be exhausting. They fight constantly, My son has been diagnosed with adhd (we are not 100 percent sure yet) But he is constantly screaming, throwing fits, running off..you get it.
Lets get into the list of just some of the benefits CBD hemp oil has:
- Relives Anxiety
- ocd
- ptsd
- depression
- pain relief and inflammation
- relives nausea
- lowers risk of diabetes
- treats seizures
- reduces acne
What I use:
I came across this site that has great reviews and it well informative on their products. The site is called PureRelief.com They offer a wide range of products for you to choose from. I was lucky enough to be able to try not just the oil (which is amaaazing by the way) but some other goodies.
Speaking of the oil it has become an essential in my night time routine. I got the Pure Hemp Oil 500 mg full spectrum bottle. (PARENTS/GUARDIANS YOU NEED THIS!)
I like to call it ‘Mommy’s Miracle in a bottle’
It helps tremendously with soothing my anxiety and taking away my built up mommy stress from my crazy days. All you do is just place drops under your tongue and let it do its thing and Pure Relief even offer it in mint flavor but I am happy with the regular.
As I stated before. I did get a couple of more products off the site and one that works instantly is the Hemp gummies. They have them for day time or night time. I don’t know about you but I worry about my kids all the time. It’s part of my anxiety and it brings insomnia along with it. So I need help in the sleep department and don’t want to chug on nyquil or benadryl if you get what I am saying. So finally found a better alternative.
1 of these gummies can help you dose off into a good nights rest. Not a deep sleep where you can’t get up for your kids if you have too and doesn’t make you feel drowsy like sleeping pills and all that junk. It just gets you into the perfect resting mode. Enough to catch the ZZZZ’s we need. They taste ok. Not like your typical gummy bears but you do get used to them. Promise. My husband loves these too! There are 30 in the bag and 30mg CBD + 5mg Melatonin per Hemp Gummy. Thank you Pure Relief for these!
Lastly is their Relief Joints. They have I believe 10 flavors. I got Bubba Kush. At first I was a little hesitant. The scent was strong (not bad, just strong) So I took this outside and just chilled after a bad to be honest. I had a headache and had too much on my plate. It was one of those days. After having this I felt so much better. My body and head felt relaxed. I felt like a happy mommy again. I was ready to rule the mama world haha.
There you have it! My reasons and benefits on why I think CBD is helpful. Especially for us parents! We have to always be on top of it and be happy and full of energy in the day to see those beautiful smiles on our kiddos. Thank you so much PureRelief for these amazing products. You have a customer for life here!
