A new trend developing among yoga enthusiasts emphasizes a key cannabis compound, CBG. Why do yoga enthusiasts love taking CBG compared to other cannabinoids? The answer is both physical and spiritual.
Physical
Cannabis enhances certain types of exercise, at least according to this 2022 study that identified yoga and hiking as the most popular forms of elevated activities. The study participants said cannabis helped provide better focus, concentration and a deeper mind-body-spirit connection. Of course, these are also core benefits of yoga, which itself may have a cannabinoid-like effect on the ECS (endocannabinoid system). It’s no wonder cannabis and yoga are such a popular pairing.
Early research suggests CBG (cannabigerol) could lead all cannabinoids in its breadth and diversity of therapeutic uses. Science will ultimately provide the answers, but potential CBG benefits include help with inflammation, stress, pain, sleep and even bone growth. Yoga enthusiasts naturally find these benefits attractive.
Spiritual
On the spiritual side, cannabis and yoga are deeply connected in Hindu tradition. For example, Lord Shiva is the god of yoga who gifted the cannabis plant to the world. CBG, the mother cannabinoid that transforms into THC, CBD and other compounds, adds spiritual balance by channeling Shiva’s counterpart, Shakti, the female energy that runs through the cosmos. Those who embrace the spiritual side of yoga often view CBG as providing a more balanced source of energy and elevation.
