Good Sleep Can Be Hard to Find

It's hard to get a good night's sleep, especially when you're constantly on the go. As a mom of 3, I'm well versed in the sleepless newborn nights. Now, my kids are older and (mostly) sleeping through the night, but I still have issues with falling asleep and staying asleep. When I turned 30, I noticed that my swirling thoughts seemed to increase right as bedtime approached. My mind and body were having a hard time relaxing after a full day of work, parenting duties and more.

Lack of Sleep Can be Harmful

Lack of sleep can lead to all sorts of problems like decreased productivity, increased likelihood of getting sick, poor decision making, and even weight gain. I know we've all been there. Studying for an exam. Working late to meet a deadline. Dealing with additional stressors like sick kids, family issues and more. Losing sleep on a consistent basis can lead to increased incidence of disease. Plus, without adequate sleep, you might feel sluggish and irritable.

What I've Tried for Better Sleep

I've tried a melatonin supplement for sleep in the past. Melatonin gives you a very heavy "drowsy" sensation but I find tha tI wake in the middle of the night because my mind and body were never really eased into a deep sleep. Plus, I woke up drowsy on more than one occasion.

Then, I tried a few different CBD supplements. I started researching CBD supplements and learned that an extract that was high in CBN might be helpful in falling and staying asleep. Cannabinol (abbreviated as CBN) comes from the breakdown of the psychoactive cannabinoid THC and is noted for its sleepy effects. I started looking at CBN/sleep focused products and was TOTALLY influenced by folks on social media repping different brands.

I tried a few CNB/sleep focused products, but was disappointed that I had a hard time finding organic products. I was also noticing that many popular brands were using isolates instead of a full-spectrum extract. Now, isolates aren't a BAD thing. But as someone who believes that plants should be used in their whole form (as long as it's safe), isolates just don't make sense to me.

What's the Difference: Isolates vs Full-Spectrum

Take this example: imagine going out to a beautiful garden and selecting a bunch of beautiful stems. You take them inside to make a bouquet arrangement and right before you put them in the vase, you chop the petals off. What you're left with is still something that can fill a vase, but you're missing out on the colors, the fragrance and the "whole picture" effect of that bouquet. That's how I feel about isolates vs a full-spectrum product.

In contrast, a full-spectrum product is the bouquet example, taken to the next level. In a full-spectrum extract, you're going all the way back to planning which varieties of flowers you want to plant based on their color, height, aroma and more. You're selecting varieties that work in harmony together, to create the desired visual and scent-filled bouquet of your dreams.
