Improve your natural balance with CBD Oil
16 February 2023Do you recognise the common feeling of being out of balance? No matter whether your lack of natural equilibrium makes you feel tired, stressed out, or unable to eat, CBD Oil can help you restore and preserve your body’s balance by purely natural means!
CBD Oil for natural balance
It’s so easy to lose your balance in life that you often don’t even notice it when it happens to you. Until you start to feel the consequences, that is; but by that time, you’re already in trouble. Of course, it can be tricky to tell just when you are living a balanced life and when you’re not. Still, your everyday balance is crucial to your health, rather than just some vague new age concept.
Your body can only function as it should as long as all internal processes run in mutual harmony. If for whatever reason this is not the case, your inner lack of harmony will manifest in any number of ways. Fortunately, CBD Oil can help you maintain and regain your inner balance, by working together with your body by natural means.
Out of balance: how does it feel?
There are many signs that indicate we may be out of balance either physically or mentally. Unbalanced states come with slightly different experiences for everyone, which makes sense as we are all unique individuals. Despite these differences, the following symptoms are among the most common signals of an unbalanced body or mind:
- Feeling tired;
- Weak immune system;
- Feeling down;
- Lack of appetite;
- Low energy;
- Digestive problems;
- Disrupted sleeping patterns;
- Stress and anxiety;
- Pain including headaches;
- Lack of focus.
It is no coincidence that people increasingly turn to CBD to address one or more of these symptoms. In fact, you could say that CBD Oil is so effective against such a wide range of symptoms because this plant-based compound is able to tackle their underlying cause: it helps your body preserve its internal balance.
If we put it differently, we could also claim that CBD Oil and other supplements can help you maintain your balance; and for this reason, it can be a great boost to your overall sense of wellbeing – even if that sense involves hundreds of different factors.
How can CBD Oil help support your natural balance?
You keep hearing it around you: every day, more people discover how CBD supplements can help control a huge range of (health) problems. From stress to sleeping problems and from pain to depression or disruption to our hormonal balance: sometimes, hemp-derived CBD seems to be some kind of natural panacea.
Of course, CBD is not a miracle cure. And yet, the effects can be quite unbelievable, including for conditions that are hard to treat using regular medication. This diversity of potential applications is largely due to the way CBD Oil can help maintain your body balance. Many health conditions, symptoms, and diseases can be linked to unbalanced body states. This is why feeling unbalanced can be so hard to describe: there are just so many ways in which the problem can express itself.
Thankfully, this very complexity is one of the main fortes of CBD. As you will read below, this plant compound can help you recover and reinforce that elusive state of inner balance. It does so by working together with your own internal physiology, which is constantly at work to keep you balanced throughout the day.
How your body keeps itself stable
The environment around you keeps changing from one minute to the next. Every day, it gets light and then dark, temperatures fluctuate, quiet moments give way to crowded situations; and if your luck runs out, you get caught in the rain the moment you go out to the store.
Inside, we are never exactly the same, either. Sometimes we feel tired, stressed out and tense; the next minute we may feel happy, relaxed and full of energy. Perhaps you never pause to wonder about it, but all day long, you body is working hard to keep all of these internal and external changes under control. This is done by means of a process called homeostasis. Interestingly, CBD Oil is intricately linked to the mechanism by which homeostasis guards our everyday balance.
Homeostasis: adapting to a changing world
Homeostasis is a state of dynamic equilibrium. That means it is constantly shifting between various states, allowing you to adapt to the ongoing changes around you. If it gets hotter, your natural balance shifts one way; if your blood glucose levels drop, the balance will shift in another direction.
This dynamic process involves a host of different body processes. All of these have to be mutually attuned to one another, again and again. Luckily, your body has its own ‘balance manager’ to do just that, in the form of your endocannabinoid system (ECS).
Natural cannabinoids as support for your body
Our endocannabinoid system was discovered only fairly recently by Israeli scientist Raphael Mechoulam. The late discovery of the ECS seems surprising considering just how crucial this system is. The ECS branches out throughout the entire body. It works through a network of receptors located on the surface of your own cells. These receptors emit signals to the cell as soon as they come into contact with the right messenger molecules (neurotransmitters). Normally speaking, we produce our own supply of these neurotransmitters, in the form of various so-called endocannabinoids.
Sometimes, your ECS can’t live up to the task of keeping your everyday balance stable, and that is when CBD Oil can come in very handy. CBD (cannabidiol), a cannabinoid derived from hemp plants, is highly similar to the endocannabinoids your own body produces. The difference is in it’s plant origins, which is why it is called a phytocannabinoid. In terms of physiological effects, CBD works just like your own cannabinoids. That makes CBD like an ‘interim balance manager’ able to help you out whenever your own system needs a bit of natural support.
Using CBD Oil to improve your balance
Do you recognise the familiar feeling of being out of balance? Perhaps you should try CBD Oil to lose your balance by natural means. That could mean boosting your energy, reducing stress, improving your mood, and getting more sleep – plus many other potential positive effects
A major benefit of CBD supplements is the fact that they cannot make you feel ‘high’ or ‘stoned’ in spite of their hemp origins: cannabidiol is a non-psychoactive substance. It hardly produces any side-effects, and if they do occur, they are usually mild and fade quickly. The World Health Organization WHO has labelled CBD as safe for extended use for a reason!
How it works
CBD is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, allowing it to work all throughout the body. That means CBD Oil can help tackle a lack of balance fast on multiple fronts, no matter whether it expresses itself in hormone issues, stress, listlessness, physical pain, or other symptoms.
If you want to improve your internal balance using CBD, it’s best to start at low doses of the supplement that best suits your needs, such as oil dropped underneath your tongue or tablets that you can take without water.
Just like everyone else, you will have to determine your unique optimal dose for yourself. Nobody can predict exactly how much you will need to stay optimally balanced. That is why we recommend starting out with low doses and gradually increasing these until you feel the intended effect. Stick to this level an maintain your daily dose to reach stable CBD blood levels. It will help your body maintain its natural state of equilibrium. You have found your source of personal support: you will notice it in all the little improvements that come with a life lived in optimal balance!
