2023 has finally opened up its doors and the new year is upon us. This year, we want to focus on your wellness, whatever that means to you. Whether you’re looking to manage your stress or just show yourself a little self-care, cannabis may be just what you need. No, we don’t mean smoking it. That’s right, in this article we are going to highlight some of the cannabis products that will give you all of the wonderful benefits of THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids without having to smoke weed.
Tinctures
Cannabis tinctures allow you to feel the benefits of cannabis by just placing a few drops under your tongue. Despite being taken orally like an edible, the effects of tinctures tend to have a much quicker onset of around 15-30 minutes. This is because when you let the tincture sit under your tongue for at least 30 seconds, the cannabinoids rapidly absorb into your bloodstream through the tissue in your mouth.
Tinctures are a great option for those who want something that takes effect rather quickly and requires very little ingested cannabis. In addition, tinctures come in convenient dropper bottles which allow you to measure out the precise amount you desire. Tinctures are also very discreet and easy to travel with, making them a great option for those who want their cannabis readily available even when they aren’t home.

This all-natural oil-based tincture is a staple for any daily wellness routine. Enjoy ultimate control over servings with a calibrated dropper in a recyclable glass bottle.
Balms
Balms are great for those looking for some rub-on muscle relief. Using cannabis-infused balms allows you to experience the physical effects of cannabis without the head high. In fact, you can avoid THC altogether and go for a purely CBD balm if that’s how you roll. For extra relief, some balms even offer a cooling or heating sensation to further help your muscles relax.

Bath By Bex Bath Bombs
Bath by Bex is a small, local business specializing in CBD-infused personal care products. Their bath bombs are the perfect option for those who want a little extra relieving factor without any THC. Plus, these bath bombs are downright gorgeous! Options like their Rasta bath bomb infuse your bath water with eco-friendly glitter so you can fully indulge in a fabulous night of self-care.
Lubricant
If you’re looking to spice things up in the bedroom, consider getting some cannabis-infused lube to put on your nightstand. Why? THC is known to increase blood flow and therefore increase sensitivity in the areas you apply cannabis-infused lube. Plus, CBD works synergistically with THC to relax blood vessels and muscle tension. This in turn leads to easier, more pleasurable intercourse.
Our Pick

Velvet Swing is the world’s first water-soluble cannabis lubricant. This means it’s safe to use with latex! This lubricant contains both THC and CBD, as well as a custom terpene blend designed specifically for sexuality.
