For the last century, cannabis has been stigmatized. Yet, this plant, part of the Order Rosales, belongs to a family famous for producing ornamental flowers and edible fruits like apples and cherries. Interestingly, hops—the key ingredient in beer—shares the same…
At the risk of sounding un-American, I’m going to complain about choices—too many of them. Aren’t we taught that freedom to choose is sacred? And while I agree that choosing our leaders is great (even if the options aren’t), sometimes…
I was fully engrossed in an episode of History’s “Forged in Fire.” Four bladesmiths were challenged with creating a knife out of ball bearings and fish hooks using a canister Damascus technique. I took a drag off my PAX 3…

When I began to engage with Cannabis, my third eye opened wide, and the co-creative dream weaving commenced. I didn’t realize this is what was happening – at the time I simply felt relaxed and inspired. But that’s the way…
It is no secret that Cannabis and Psychedelics have been a part of history for hundreds if not thousands of years. That brings up the question, how are psychoactive substances a spiritual tool? We have all heard of the ’60s-’70s,…
