CBD for Anxiety
Whether you suffer from an occasional bout of nervousness in predictably stressful situations, or struggle to manage chronic feelings of anxiety in your life, CBD might be able to help.
Everyone feels nervous sometimes. Anxiety is a natural response to the many stressful situations we encounter in our daily modern lives. But what happens when anxiety starts to take over? Sleep patterns can suffer, our moods may become unpredictable, and basic interactions with other people can grow fraught with complications.
Many pre-clinical studies suggest that CBD can be an effective acute treatment for a variety of anxiety disorders, including generalized social anxiety disorder1.
Oral CBD may also effectively provide relief for those who are anticipating a stressful situation in the near future2. Are you getting on an airplane? Do you have a public speaking engagement coming up? CBD ingested orally before these situations may help reduce the feelings of anxiety and cognitive impairment associated with excessive nervousness3.
Another ill effect of chronic anxiety is the havoc it can wreak on our sleep patterns. We all know the feeling of lying awake with our minds full of worries that would be better addressed in daylight. Anxiety-related sleep deprivation has the unfortunate consequence of robbing us of our capacity to effectively face the following day. Oral CBD may help alleviate the overwhelming anxiety that keeps us from achieving our optimum rest4.
At Green Earth Medicinals, we’d like to help you achieve a more balanced, harmonious life less plagued by anxiety and its negative consequences. Our CBD ORAL | Buccal Spray is specifically formulated with additional ingredients to provide rapidly-absorbed relief in situations of acute anxiety. It also contains kava, an herb from Polynesia that has its own anxiety-relieving properties5. Meanwhile, our CBD EXTRA | Sublingual Drops can help maintain a steady state of reduced anxiety, empowering you to live a more stress-free life.
