The Best Ways to Enjoy Cannabis Alone

The Best Ways to Enjoy Cannabis Alone

We all love hanging with friends, passing a joint around, and chilling out, but you should consider the joy of a solo smoking session. It can be a great way to relax and recharge after a hard day or if you're tired or don't feel up for socializing or entertaining friends. 

Smoking a doobie alone allows you to get to know yourself better. It can be a time for reflection, getting lost in thoughts, practicing self-care, or just unwinding without a care in the world.

We put together this list of some top suggestions to enjoy some "me-time" while getting high alone. 

Enjoying Nature.

Let's face it -- in today's digital world, we could all do with a break from technology and getting in touch with mother nature. What better way than enjoying a herbal smoke while in the great outdoors? 

Whether you're gazing at the sky, watching the clouds drift by, listening to the waves crash on a beach, or getting your hands dirty in the garden, cannabis can help you take part in these little moments and feel more connected to the world around you. You'll likely come away feeling refreshed and with a different perspective on life.

It's best to go to a place you are already familiar with. Getting lost in the woods when stoned can cause panic or anxiety that is something of a buzz kill.

Masturbation

While there's nature outside, we shouldn't forget about our human nature. 

Being high and getting in touch with your body is another way to enjoy cannabis alone. 

It is well-documented that cannabis can be used as an aphrodisiac. Whether it is used with a partner or for some self-love, cannabis can increase sensations and intensify pleasure. 

An Indica strain that creates a good body high can pair well with the endorphins released when masturbating. Taking the time to explore your body and find out what feels good can be a gratifying journey. 

For people who may not be familiar with or comfortable with their sexuality, marijuana creates an avenue to relieve and forget about performance anxiety. Not to mention, it's just plain fun.

Dive into a hobby or DIY

There are many great weed strains out there that inspire creativity and help you find your favorite hobby.

Enjoy some weed, and maybe it will lead you to some inspired creation.

It doesn't need to be something perfect. Just enjoy the process of making something. 

There are plenty of ways to tap into your crafting creativity. 

You can purchase some beads and thread to create some handmade jewelry. Make some seasonal ornaments with craft paper, weave a wreath for your next holiday season, or take up some embroidery and make a heartfelt gift.

Getting some flowers from the local market and making your own arrangements lets you go on an adventure. 

Knitting gloves, sculpting, making tie-dye clothing, or scrapbooking are all great choices. 

Whatever hobby or craft you choose, you can relax into your high while creating and explaining new ideas and techniques for a fun and creative experience. 

Write in your journal

Getting high has a way of catalyzing introspection. It is an excellent tool for reflecting on our feelings and thoughts. 

Writing in a journal is an outlet for that introspection, allowing us to channel the energy and dig deep into our subconscious. 

Writing in a journal, when combined with marijuana, can have a positive impact on our mental health. It can allow us to see insights that elude us in our day-to-day lives and is like our own self-psychoanalysis and therapy session. 

Enjoy art and color

Try a nice uplifting strain, and you'll notice colors seem brighter and more vivid. It is no surprise that many of the world's greatest artists experiment with drugs like cannabis. 

Being high is the perfect time to dive into the world of color; whether you're putting brush to canvas or using crayons or pens, the medium doesn't matter. 

You can get in touch with your inner child and express joy, happiness, and positivity in colorful expressions. You can even visit a gallery or museum to experience other interpretations of color through art. 

Listen to music

One of the timeless combinations that every stoner enjoys is cannabis and music. There's something that comes alive in the music when experienced while high. The notes could stand out more clearly, the lyrics resonate more, or our focus and attention could be more intuned with those of the musicians. 

Sitting back and listing to your favorite album while enjoying a smoke session is one of the most relaxing ways to enjoy your high. Moreover, nobody will criticize your music choice or complain about any out-of-key singing if you're smoking alone. Before you know it, you'll be lost in the music, foot tapping to the beat and drifting off into space; maybe you'll get inspired to take up learning a new instrument. 

Meditation

Cannabis was first used as a medicine. As well as for treating symptoms cannabis was used for meditative purposes. 

Charas is a variant of hashish used on the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years. It is smoked in religious practices to help people worship their god by devoting themselves to deep meditation. 

Meditation can help us understand how we really feel, discover the truth about our thoughts, clear emotional blocks, and improve health. 

So it's no surprise today that many people take cannabis to enjoy the same benefits. When choosing a strain for meditation, you want something that creates a relaxed high. While Sativa dominant strains can create a good head high, the stimulating effects can make it harder to relax. Indicas, like the Hindu Kush or Northern Lights, can help have a more tranquil effect to enjoy and enhance your meditation. 

Binge on a new show

Sometimes we feel like relaxing in a comfortable chair, gettings stoned, and binge-watching a whole season of a TV show in one night. 

Whether it's some period drama, a side-splitting comedy, or a bone-chilling thriller. Packing a bowl or rolling a nice fat joint and indulging in some of your favorite TV genera can be a wonderful way to enjoy the high. Remember to make some popcorn or stock up on snacks beforehand. 

Cooking

Many people find cooking a therapeutic activity or one that offers a chance for some creative culinary experiments. 

No matter which category you fall under, you're efforts are to be rewarded with some delicious food.

Put on some tunes, vape some cannabis oil, and let the inspiration guide you in the kitchen as you whip up some scrumptious dishes. Who knows, you may even invent a new favorite dish while inspired by some cannabis creativity. At the very least, you'll have a tasty treat to enjoy while stoned.  

Exercise

Exercising helps increase your body's production of endorphins which gives your brain a feel-good factor. 

This is sometimes referred to as a runner's high, but you can get the effects from any intense physical activity. 

Getting stoned and exercising can help intensify that high as the cannabinoids from marijuana help reinforce those from the endocannabinoid system of the body to compound the feeling of euphoria created through exercise.  

You don't have to go to the gym to work out. You can do a workout at home or go for a jog and combine this with the oneness of being in nature. There are plenty of solo exercises you can enjoy while high.
