The Art of Mindful Consumption

Intentionality is Key
It's 8 PM. You just got home. You reach for your stash automatically. Stop. Ask yourself: Why am I consuming right now?
- Am I in pain?
- Am I bored?
- Am I anxious?
- Do I just want to enhance this movie?
There is no wrong answer, but knowing the answer changes the dynamic from a habit to a choice.
The "Set and Setting" Rule
Borrowed from psychedelic therapy, this applies to cannabis too.
- Set: Your mindset. Are you stressed or happy? Cannabis often amplifies your current state.
- Setting: Your environment. Are you in a chaotic room or a cozy safe space?
How JointSesh Helps
By taking 10 seconds to log your entry before you inhale, you create a micro-pause. This pause allows for intention.
- Open App: See your dashboard greeting.
- Select Method: Acknowledge what you are using.
- Rate Effect (Later): Reflect on whether it served its purpose.
Mindful consumption isn't about quitting; it's about maximizing the benefits and minimizing the fog.
