You work hard. You take care of your friends, family, and partner. Whatever youre doing, you give it your all. But when youre so busy making sure that everyone else is happy, its easy to forget that you need rest and care too. Fortunately, CBD can help you slow down, relax, improve your overall sense of well-being, and more. It can also be used to elevate your approach to self-care, and thats where The Little Book of CBD for Self-Care comes in.

Self-care is the practice of slowing down and taking steps to put yourself first. It is the simple understanding that you deserve love, and the realization that if you are happy, so are those around you. In todays busy world, taking a break to do something you love without shame or guilt takes courage. But here youll find more than 175 CBD-enhanced self-care activities that will help you rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit, along with a section that teaches you more about CBD and the impact it can have on your self-care practice. So turn the page and get ready to prioritize yourself for a change.

CBD helps you relax. This plant molecule may be calming, but its not weak. It goes to battle against the anxious and ruminating thoughts that stand between you and self-care. After CBD opens the door for tranquility, it provides an array of self-soothing benefits, from pain relief to stress reduction. Lets explore how to utilize it to maximize your potential.

Self-care is treating yourself the way you would treat other people. It means listening to yourself and taking care of your needs. It is what you do to prioritize youmind, body, and spirit.

In todays hectic society, steeped in social media and a 24/7 news cycle, there is pressure to go, go, go. However, if you dont take a break and integrate self-care into your lifewhether once a day, once a week, or more oftenyou risk health problems and burnout. Treating yourself well isnt frivolous; its crucial to surviving in this tough world. Your body needs enough sleep, water, and exercise. Your mind needs stimulation. And your spirit needs love. Self-care honors life by striving to make yours as happy and healthy as possible.

The way that you practice self-care is up to you. A luxurious bath may be perfect for one person; someone else may need a day spent working hard in the garden. But whatever you need, youll find what youre looking for in this book. Self-care is self-love, so lets take a look at the different types of self-care and how CBD can help you connect with and nurture the whole you.
