💫 High Vibes
Where Art Meets Altitude: Bob Ross & Chill

Sometimes you don’t need a banger—you need a Bob.
Whether you're post-dab, mid-burn, or just vibing on a rainy afternoon, nothing hits like the soft-spoken joy of watching happy little trees come to life.

This isn’t background noise. This is mental moisturizer.

Bob’s voice is a slow drip of peace. The brush sounds? ASMR for the lifted soul. And when the forest comes together in a swirl of titanium white and phthalo green… yeah, that’s when it hits.

📺 Start with:
Season 3, Episode 1 — Mountain Retreat

“We don't make mistakes—just happy accidents.”

– Your new spirit guide

🖌️ Pair with:

  • Dab rig + crumble (anything creamy or citrusy)

  • Comfy hoodie, no plans

  • Optional: journal, sketchpad, or just a long stare into the void (in a good way)

Pro Tip: Sip something warm. Tea, cocoa, or golden milk—it adds to the cozy current.

That THC drink you love? It might be headed for the same shelf as Jack Daniels. Here’s why - Senate Bill 254 could shake things up.

What’s the Bill Say?
It nearly banned THC drinks statewide 😬—but now the twist: they might stay legal, only in liquor stores. No more grabbing one at your local smoke shop or gas station.

Why It Matters:

  • ✅ More regulation = safer products

  • 🚫 Less access = more hassle

Shops are already pushing back, saying it’ll hurt business. Lawmakers say it’s about control.

✉️ Want to make your voice heard? Contact your local rep before SB 254 hits the floor.

The Bottom Line:
THC drinks aren’t disappearing, but they might soon be tucked behind the liquor counter.

🧩 Mindful Consumption
Hydrate or Fade Away

Cannabis highs can be beautiful. Cottonmouth? Not so much.

Want to level up your high and avoid that dreaded crash? Keep water on deck. It’s a simple habit with serious perks.

💧 Why It Matters:

  • 🧠 Focus: Hydration supports brain clarity so your thoughts don't drift into mush.

  • 😮‍💨 Smooth Hits: Dry mouth isn’t just annoying—it can make inhaling feel harsher than it needs to.

  • 💚 Body Vibes: Cannabis can sometimes lower blood pressure. Staying hydrated keeps things balanced.

🚰 Pro Move: Make It a Ritual

Pair your sesh with a glass or bottle of water—every time.

Even better? Add a slice of citrus, cucumber, or mint to upgrade your hydration game.

Put it next to your vape, grinder, or stash so it’s part of the flow. The goal isn’t to chug—just to sip and stay steady.

How Do Terpenes Affect the Cannabis Experience?

Terpenes aren’t just what make your cannabis smell amazing—they’re also shaping the effects you’ll feel!

Think of them as the unsung heroes of your high, adding subtle yet important layers to your cannabis experience.

Why Terpenes Matter:

Terpenes are like the "spices" of the cannabis plant, enhancing the flavor and experience. Beyond just the scent or taste, they influence how cannabinoids interact with the body, making your high more customized to your needs.

  • Terpenes + Cannabinoids = The Entourage Effect:
    The real magic happens when terpenes work in synergy with cannabinoids like THC and CBD. Together, they enhance each other’s effects and create a fuller, richer experience.

    • So, next time you choose a strain or product, think about the whole profile—terpenes and cannabinoids alike.

💡 Pro Tip: When choosing cannabis for specific effects, consider what you want your terpenes to do.

—Limonene: Energizing and uplifting—perfect for starting your day.
Myrcene & Linalool: Excellent choices for winding down at night for relaxation and sleep.
Pinene: A great pick for a focused high—it helps keep you sharp.
