Thomas WrightPublished 4 years ago in Potent5 reasons why marijuana is actually great!
Unleashes inner creativity: Believe me when I say this is a fact. Towards the end of my high school ca reer, school was the last thing on my mind. With overdue essays to finish and Assignments piling up it was time to pick up the pace. For about 2 weeks I was in total grind mode. D’s were rising to B’s and my motivation continued to grow. With everything going so well I felt, like any high school slacker, that it was time for a short break. As I let book-work and essays build up again I started going to school high. Everyday before stepping out of my car I would take 3 rips off my dab pen and then head in to school. Most of the time this just resulted in extra sleep. It wasn’t until I actually started doing work that I noticed something incredible. There I was sliced as fuck working on an essay about the book “Fahrenheit 451”. It amazed me how easy the essay was considering the only thing I had read was the back cover. The essay was finished in that same class on that same day. Yeah it was a BUNCH of bullshit but the bullshit was creatively relevant to the book and enough to cap me a B+. Never had I ever been able to put together a decent essay in such a short amount of time. Was this just a coincidence? I think NOT. I could sit here and talk about countless assignments I accomplished while high but school isn’t the only thing being high helped me with. I am an adamant drummer and hearing the same beats over and over gets boring but coming up with new beats is stressful. What I have learned is when I am high and come up with new beats it all comes together without me even thinking about it. My body does more work than my mind. What I mean by this is, as I start playing I incorporate new beats or rhythms and I don’t even realize it until I play it back. It’s like magic. But why when I’m high is it easier to write or make beats than when I’m not? According to a study, weed, or cannabis as they call it causes users like myself, to have psychotomimetic symptoms leading you to make connections between ideas that aren’t related. This means that while writing that essay I was able to relate completely unrelated things from my life to the book that I never even read more than a summary of.

Eada HudesPublished 4 years ago in PotentA Guide to a Creative High
Pick The Right Strain Of course I had to start with the most obvious one, everyone knows the strain you choose greatly effects the high, along with a few other important factors. Those who don't know this usually don't even give cannabis a second chance, most first time smokers don't realize how much a better strain can improve your experience. For me, I'm all about sativa and personally find they bring me the most creative energy but for some hybrid is easier to access and gives a more evenly balanced high; then there's the few remaining stoners that find the relaxed high of a indica sets them up for a relaxing night of creative thoughts. Anyway the most important part of all of this, my personal favourite strains that never fail to bring me into a creative headspace are; Gelato, Pineapple Express (yes this is a real strain and yes I've written my own stoner comedy after smoking it), Silver Kush, and to throw one Indica into the mix - Palm Tree.
