When taking CBD, it can be helpful to note the dose you took, when you took it, and how you felt before and after. In terms of identifying positive results with a CBD routine, it's often more about what you don't see than what you do see.
It takes time to see the benefits of a CBD routine! On average, our members report their BEST results around three months into following a daily, consistent routine; and along the way, we can be on the lookout for small, subtle, incremental improvements. Here are some questions to help guide you toward understanding the small ways CBD starts to work:
- Stress management: Were you slightly less reactive during a stressful situation than expected? Has your mood felt more balanced throughout the day? Has the constant buzz of stress become a little less noticeable?
- Quality of rest: Have you noticed more vivid dreams? Are you winding down a little faster than normal? Are you waking up one less time overnight?
- Relieving discomfort: Have you felt less tension than usual? Noticed a reduction in inflammation in any part of your body? Feeling slightly less achy than normal?
Even if you are not using CBD to help in one of these areas, any improvement, no matter how small, in any part of your body or mind is a great sign that the routine is headed in the right direction. The insights you glean from journaling will help you and your Wellness Specialist work together to create the perfect customized routine for you!
