In order to lose weight, you need to train your brain to focus. Unfortunately, distractions from our phones and children, stress, or medical conditions like attention deficit disorder (ADHD) make it hard for us to focus. You need to create new neural circuits for making positive habits that will stick.

Focus on One Weight Loss Goal

Permanent changes in diet, exercise, and sleep form only with practice. Try setting focus on a single goal rather than a broad one to help rewire each action one at a time.

For example, if you are working on losing 50 pounds, building your biceps, and getting washboard abs all at the same time, you’re bound to lose focus as you can’t possibly achieve all those goals at the same time while juggling family and work. Instead, break those goals into separate parts. Focus on muscle building exercises that tone and build arm muscle before worrying about massive weight loss.

Cannabis For Focus

Cannabis can enhance focus in some people and worsen it in others. It depends on your genetics, what type of products you are using, the dosage, the terpenes in the strains, and the context you are taking the products in. Some people find THC-containing cannabis makes them able to both enjoy and focus on monotonous tasks like cleaning the house quickly, while others find themselves “couch-locked” and unable to move or think.

CBD For Weight Loss

For creating new neural pathways that involve diet changes and stopping sugar and junk food cravings, cannabidiol (CBD) may be a superior cannabinoid to THC. THC can increase the appetite and even cause compulsive eating or “the munchies.”

CBD is associated with a reduction in appetite and works in several ways. It may reduce stress eating and increase satiety by activating 5HT-1A serotonin receptors. CBD is also thought to reduce production of the hormone ghrelin that spikes hunger.

So excited to share that I was interviewed about S So excited to share that I was interviewed about S@x and Psilocyb!n Mushr00ms for Jennifer Chesak’s new book “The Psilocyb!n Handbook for Women.” 

Not going to give any spoilers…but our conversation might surprise you in a good way.

Ladies, this book is a fun read that gives you the details on what’s really important for us…mushr00ms are more than Silicon Valley bros trying to get more work done, people looking for help with intense addictions, and rave kiddos tripping every weekend.

This is a must read! Link in bi0.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women c Happy International Women's Day to all the women crushing it despite getting less pay, less startup funding, less everything when it comes to business. Let's do more than recognize women.

In 2023, it's time to:
*Buy from women-owned businesses
*Give women a seat at the table, preferably the board
*End all male speaking panels
*Invest in women startups, including those focused on serving women
*Include more women in clinical trials
*End toxic work cultures
*Support paid maternity leave policies
*Fill the wage gap between men and women
*Donate to nonprofits serving women
*Let women take time off of work for painful periods without stigma or penalty
*Work harder to specifically include and apply all of these principles to women from marginalized groups such as black women, disabled women, LGBTQ women, and females identifying as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer.

And so. much. more.
