4 Ways to Incorporate Cannabis into Your Wellness Routine
Consuming cannabis as part of your wellness routine means finding a balance and a product that works well for you. Ideally, the best cannabis products for wellness routines create a consistent, predictable experience to support you without disrupting your day or your flow.
Many people who turn to cannabis for wellness are interested in intentional consumption that doesn’t feel overwhelming. If that’s you, then start here.
1. Time Your Consumption: Morning vs Evening
One of the biggest pieces of building a supportive cannabis wellness routine is identifying when cannabis feels the most supportive for you. For example, whether to consume in the morning versus the evening is a common question we get at BestBüds. The short answer is, it depends on your goals and lifestyle.
Morning cannabis consumption may be a good fit for you if:
- You wake up with anxiety or task resistance
- Mornings tend to start with pain or physical soreness
- Feeling more energized or focused is a priority for you
- You enjoy a slow morning routine
- Your cannabis goals are around mood improvement, focus, or mental energy
Try: tincture, an energizing edible, or a small dose of flower.
Evening cannabis consumption may be a good fit for you if:
- Your cannabis goals are centered around relaxation or sleep
- You need help shaking off stress or tension after a long day
- It’s hard for you to turn off your mind at night in bed
- You want to build a nighttime routine for better sleep
- You need to recenter your mindset after a long day for relaxation, play, or patience
Try: tincture, a calming edible, or a THC drink.
2. Find the Right Cannabinoid Blend for Your Goals
THC is the best-known cannabinoid, but it’s not your only option. When building a cannabis wellness routine, many people find it beneficial to explore other cannabinoids like CBD, CBN, and CBG.
Furthermore, consuming alternative cannabinoids and exploring different ratios with THC is a great way to create a custom routine that supports your specific goals.
| If your goal is… | Then try… | Suggested products |
| Better sleep | THC + CBN | Tincture or edible |
| Less anxiety | THC + CBD | Tincture or edible |
| More focus | THC + THCV or THC + CBG | Tincture or preroll |
| Stronger recovery | THC + CBD or THC + CBG | Topical |

3. Tailor Your Dose
People often think bigger is better and more THC is the goal, but that’s not the case. While large doses of cannabis work well for some people, on the other hand, many others find a sweet spot with smaller doses of THC, known as a microdose. A microdose is a small amount of cannabis, just enough to feel a gentle shift, without the full experience of a full-on high.
A THC microdose can range from 1mg to 5mg, depending on the person. We recommend starting low and going slow to find your personal sweet spot.
Microdoses can enhance your day, subtly supporting you to feel more focused, calm, or joyful.
4. Pair Cannabis with Your Existing Wellness Routines
Overall, cannabis can complement your wellness routine, helping you make the most of every workout, mindful moment, and rest.
Pre-Workout
Some people enjoy consuming cannabis before their workout to improve their mood and increase their energy and motivation. An edible or a small toke of a preroll can help you find the energy and desire to show up for yourself, even after a long day.
Post-Workout Recovery
Many people enjoy cannabis after their workout to encourage physical recovery and reward themselves for a job well done. A relaxing edible, a soothing topical, or a bowl can help you let go of the day and settle into a restful state of mind.
Mindfulness
If a busy mind keeps you distracted during yoga or meditation, cannabis may be able to help you feel centered, calm, and quiet. In particular, a low dose of THC or THC and CBD can help you drop into that quiet calm space to center yourself, and let your thoughts pass by like clouds on a breeze.
Ultimately, the effects of cannabis are deeply personal. What works well for someone else may not work for you. Keep an open mind, be willing to try new things, and focus on what feels right.
