The Highsman “ @Highsman34 ” Effect with
@NFL Legend Ricky “ @Rickthelaureate ” Williams
“When I was in the NFL, cannabis was a crucial part of my recovery routine…” Adding “ Although I’m not in the same physical grind anymore, I still use cannabis in a similar manner. On a creative level, I find that cannabis helps me open my mind and connect when navigating the challenges of creating and managing a business. Physically, especially with a good Indica, I instinctively engage in stretching—a daily reminder as a yoga instructor and practitioner to tune into my body… Unlike anti-inflammatories and opioids that mask pain, cannabis allows me to be aware of my body’s signals, move mindfully and take care of myself…”

Changing the Route and Making a Play for Cannabis with Bo “ @BoScaife80 ” Scaife
“I could tell opioids were having a negative impact on my life, so I started using cannabis…” Adding “I was able to wean myself off the opioid, painkillers and the inflammation prescribed drugs. I found that cannabis was giving me the relief I needed. It also gave me the ability to cope with the situation I was dealing with. It put me in a better place than I was when I was just on prescription drugs. Pills can fuel depression, they make you numb to everything and I think cannabis does the opposite in that regard. That’s when I started becoming a huge believer in cannabis and the benefits and how therapeutic it was for me.”

“Unlike anti-inflammatories and opioids that mask pain, cannabis allows me to be aware of my body’s signals, move mindfully and take care of myself…” Adding “If a part of my body needs attention, I can focus on it, stretching and breathing life and positive energy into those areas. Without this mindfulness, I’d risk neglecting issues that would worsen over time. In essence, it provides mindfulness, which is key.”
