Sleep

What it is

Sleep is not about “shutting down”, but about resetting. Cannabis may be associated with falling asleep more easily, longer deep sleep, and reduced physical and mental tension that can interfere with recovery.

The experience varies depending on profile, timing, and context. The goal is not to “knock yourself out”, but to transition into sleep gently.

How it feels

Before:

• racing thoughts that won’t let go

• bodily tension and difficulty getting comfortable

• anxiety or late-night overstimulation

• physical exhaustion without the ability to switch off

After:

• a sense of heaviness without pressure

• slower, deeper breathing

• release in the jaw, forehead, and back

• awareness begins to drift, and inner dialogue softens

Related terpenes

• Myrcene — commonly linked to sedating, body-focused profiles

• Linalool — associated with quieting mental background noise

• Caryophyllene — linked to physical and emotional settling

• Nerolidol — connected to deep bodily relaxation

Additional:

• CBD — associated with lowering stress and inflammatory background, not directly sedating

• CBN — linked to increased sedative profiles

• THC — may feel sedating in some contexts, but highly variable by sensitivity

OG Lab strains

• Banana Hammock RBX1 — associated with deep physical shutdown

• Blueberry Bang Bang — softer transition into rest

• Grand Master Sexy — used when mental tension dominates

When the effect may feel weaker

• in highly stimulating environments

• when background anxiety dominates

• when internal activation remains high

• when external conditions prevent relaxation

Summary

Cannabis and sleep is not about forcing rest. It is about creating the internal conditions for surrender to recovery.

Sleep is built on trust. Cannabis may show the path, but you decide whether to walk it.
