Five Things to do While High

Do you find yourself getting high and end up doing the same things? Running the same regiment repeatedly can get boring, so we made a list for you ghouls and gals. Everybody loves lists! Depending on your altitude, we have compiled our top five physically and mentally wholesome activities or things to do when you’re in space mode.

Things to do during stretching

Stretching is one of the super most things to do. Have you seen your pet dog or cat doing stretches here and there? If your animal companion is doing it, so should you – they are certainly onto something important we can incorporate into our lives, high or not high. Here are a few reasons you should constantly be stretching – and there’s no such thing as too much stretching (though don’t overstretch!). Your body will love you for it no matter how high you are.

• Our bodies need to loosen up all those muscles strained from the lack of mobility or too much mobility. Stretching is the most practical way to allow our bodies to loosen up those tired or stiff muscles. See it as an essential element to exercising or an essential activity in taking good care of our bodies.

What stretching allows things to do

Stretching allows our bodies to become flexible. It becomes collateral for possible future injuries as we are more equipped to handle the bumps and the falls like a cat. For example, you can easily slip a disc on your spine from putting your shoe in an awkward position. So yes, stretching turns you into a cat; now you can jump off buildings.

• It fixes our posture – so it’s all interconnected within our body bag. Over time, the more consistent stretching you do, the more you are realigning your body for better posture, which leads to all sorts of health benefits, like better breathing and preventing spinal issues in the future.
• Our body is a complex interconnected network of nerves, organs, muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, and everything in between, all working together to make our bodies work in harmony. Stretching realigns all those parts to their most natural and effective position so you’ll feel more centered and breathe more easily.
• It activates the muscles and joints by allowing blood and nerve activation within that stretched area. It will assist with recovery or regeneration and act as a buffer for potential injury.
• High stretching can be enjoyably therapeutic to your body and your mind as your high can get you into that flow state zone as you move with your body to get into those tight muscles while you’re in the relaxed state.
•  You can do it anywhere and anytime! Do it while watching content, talking, waiting, sitting, or laying down – the possibilities are limitless!

High Thoughts > High Conversations

The higher the conversation, the higher you go. Here’s why high conversations are awesome:

• We’re human beings, so we’re genetically programmed to be social creatures.
• Interacting with other humans while high – about high topics can make us even higher due to the oxytocin released from such an activity.
• Connecting with other people makes us ‘happy” due to all sorts of evolutionary weathering over the eons into our DNA – we are wired to interact with others in one way or another. It is healthy for our mental well-being because it lights up our brains.
• When we’re in a high state, our thought patterns change, and it’s always interesting to observe where the conversation goes.
• When engaged in the old art of conversation or focus on them, we are firing those neurons to hone in on those talking and listening skillsets. Though it is noted that cannabis can impair your verbal memory, so it can leave you going on tangents or forgetting the tangent altogether.

Whatever the conversation it’s always fun to chit-chat with fellow astronauts.

Go into the wild

Something primal and familiar about being out in nature speaks to all of us. Being amongst nature in the wilderness can be therapeutic and enhanced by enjoying the experience high. Nature is interesting (particularly so when in an elevated state). The leaves, the rocks, the trees, and the sounds created by the environment can be spectacular when you tune into your psychoactive mind to the sensory experience. Best of all, it’s often free! Here are two activities that we recommend you try out:

• Hiking / Bushwalking

Have you ever encountered an unhappy or stressed-looking hiker? Neither have we. Hiking is one of the healthiest things to do that you can give yourself because you’re constantly moving your body around and using all of your senses to navigate through the living ecosystem. You’ll need to look in front of you and where you step while trying to enjoy and focus on the beauty mother nature has on show. And because you’ll need to scan consonantly, this is a good activity for your eyes. So, you should focus on it. I am certain fellow ents are in tune with the sense of smell.
We should use this superpower to see what our noses pick up while traversing the landscape. What do your smells recognize in the wilderness? Any sensory experience you have while high is amplified, and there’s something primitively therapeutic about interacting with the things you discover while in the wilderness. Practice mindfulness when out there and note your five senses touch, smell, sight, hearing, and taste.

• Camping

Camping is rarely a comfortable experience, that is, unless you’re glamping. It goes well with being high because, like hiking, your senses will be on overload. Just don’t forget to pitch your tent and equipment up first! Enjoy cooking your favorite camping food over a warm, radiating wood fire overlooking the clear star-studded skies. Ahhh, the great outdoors!

*Common sense and safety precautions strictly apply when in the wilderness. Let someone know where you’re going and pack the necessary equipment, such as a first aid kit (with meds on hand), adequate fluids, food, and appropriate attire.

Things to do during Yoga

Have you tried yoga while high? We certainly recommend – we’d advise you to be in a functional state to follow the instructor. Otherwise, if experienced, you can do it on your own. Yoga is synonymous with stretching and core movements but with the flow, and there’s no better med to go well with those combinations! Also, add the spiritual aspect of those vibes to synchronize with your elevated mind and being. We’d recommend you try the Vinyasa or flow-type yoga. If you’re feeling stretchy, then opt for a Yin class. Enter that flow state and bask in that yoga glow ~ Recommended: Charlotte’s Web – AK47

Doodle / Draw / Write

When high, our mind is in an active, creative state. So when you use a pen or pencil in this state, you can express your mind differently. Particularly so when proofreading or you want to see things in another light when in such a state. Plus, there’s something tactile and cathartic about scribbling on blank paper. It left an unused book unplanned and free-flowing.
You can do this many ways – if you’re stuck on ideas. Just copy anything you think is interesting on Instagram, Pinterest, or Facebook. Doodle plants, people, characters, letterings, or even a visual diagram of your mourning routine and night routine. See what you can draw and how creative you can get. There are some amazing examples on social media to spark your inspiration. Recommended Strains Khalifa Kush – AK47
