The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

In a shorthand that drives scientists mad, serotonin is often called ‘the neurotransmitter of happiness.’ This tag is especially troublesome as more and more flaws become apparent in the ‘serotonin hypothesis’ of depression – the idea that depression is caused by a serotonin deficit, which a pill (a serotonin reuptake inhibitor) could correct.
This week the United Nations (UN) Committee on Narcotic Drugs (CND) has their annual meetings in Vienna.

If you’ve ever come to me for a session then you’ve met my dog, Paloma. I bring my dog in my office when I see clients who are working with ailments for their pets. We should think and talk to our veterinarians about using medical cannabis for pets. Pets are very emotional for us. When our pets are sick, it’s very hard for us.

Cannabidiol (CBD) has been the focus of many medical cannabis studies, and continues to prove itself as a powerful anti-inflammatory drug.

With the legalization of both recreational and medical marijuana in Nevada , it is important to understand when and where consumption is appropriate. Although legal at the state level, there are still restrictions on where you can consume marijuana.

1. Get your MMJ card. Your first step should be to obtain your own cannabis card. If you don’t know of a doctor who can prescribe medical marijuana to you, head to MMJRecs for either a phone or online consultation with a medical board licenced physician.

California’s entry into the recreational sales market is a huge factor in predictions for a record breaking April.
When I’m talking with clients about sleep, no drug or cannabis is a cure-all. I still have to take a full health history and it’s really important to understand what is driving their insomnia. Is it waking up in the middle of night? Is it difficulty going to sleep? Is it stress related? What are the various forces affecting sleep? This is what I do.

CBD is a compound found in marijuana known for its therapeutic benefits in treating many diseases.

Marijuana first became legal for medical use in Nevada in 2000, but patients had to grow their own.
