Your journey, finding your perfect balance

Everyone’s relationship with cannabis is unique – like finding the perfect yoga pose or your ideal running pace. Let me share my journey from anxiety-filled flights to discovering my sweet spot with edibles.


Remember when you first tried running? You didn’t start with a marathon. Similarly, my early experience with edibles in ’96 Bay Area was like trying to sprint before learning to walk – overwhelming and off-putting. Fast forward to my frequent business travel years, and I found myself seeking alternatives to prescription anxiety meds for turbulence.


Through trial and error, I discovered that my ideal dose was much smaller than expected. Just enough to breeze through LAX chaos and handle turbulence while staying sharp for business presentations. While this exact approach isn’t universal, it helped me transition away from anxiety medications.


We designed our products for personal exploration. Start with baby steps:

  • Cut gummies in half (or quarters!)
  • Try two drops of Elixir instead of a full dropper
  • Pay attention to subtle effects

Fun fact: I once found myself reorganizing our entire kitchen (I’m not the cook!) in complete zen mode thanks to urfocus. My husband’s amused reaction? “Hey babe, what’s going on?” My response: “I’m not sure but I totally got it!”


Whether it’s cannabis, hemp, or mushrooms – your journey is yours alone. Start slow, observe how you feel, and find your perfect balance. Maybe it’s ¼ gummy, maybe it’s ½ – there’s no universal “right” dose. Your journey, your pace – enjoy the ride! Either way we’re proud of you!

*Note: My previous anxiety medication was prescribed only as needed, not for daily use.

From High Times to Calm Vibes: My Journey with Full Spectrum Hemp

Growing up in Los Angeles in the 80s, marijuana was a constant presence in my life thanks to my mom’s affinity for it. By the time I reached college, I started experimenting with smoking myself, which eventually led to a daily habit. Although I considered myself a “functioning stoner” with a career that didn’t drug test, the logistics of smoking—when, where, and what—added stress rather than alleviating it.

At 38, I decided to cut back and took a few months off from smoking. When I returned to it, I found that I was much more affected than before, often feeling overly “stoned.” This led me to phase marijuana out of my life. Instead, I began drinking more, and while I wasn’t an alcoholic, I developed a strong affinity for beer.

A New Chapter: Meeting My Wife and Embracing Change

Everything changed when I met my wonderful wife at 46. At that time, our lifestyle involved drinking and indulging in various pleasures, which likely took a toll on our health. When we discovered she was pregnant, we knew it was time to find healthier ways to support our well-being.

Our search led us to “Full Spectrum Hemp” products, which marked a significant turning point. Initially, we explored these products to improve our sleep. While we found them effective, some left us with a “sleep hangover.” Eventually, we discovered daytime products that fit seamlessly into our lives.

Redefining Edibles: The New Era of Full Spectrum Hemp

My initial reaction to edibles was one of skepticism—reminiscent of the potent, unpredictable weed brownies of my youth. However, my wife eventually convinced me to try a microdose of full spectrum hemp. To my surprise, the effects were subtle and controllable, far removed from the overwhelming experiences I had feared.

What is Full Spectrum Hemp?

For those unfamiliar, full spectrum hemp products contain a range of cannabinoids, including a minimal amount of THC (less than 0.3% as per the 2018 Farm Bill). Unlike smoking marijuana, which introduces high levels of THC, full spectrum hemp provides a calming effect without the intense psychoactive experience. It’s what we like to call “Fuzz the Edges” — a gentle way to smooth out life’s rough patches.

Overcoming Fears: Why Microdosing Full Spectrum Hemp is Different

Many of us have reservations about trying hemp, especially if past experiences with edibles were less than favorable. I’ve had my own journey with these concerns, but through my own experiences and those of my team, I’ve learned that microdosing full spectrum hemp can be both safe and beneficial. For instance, it has helped me manage anxiety during stressful situations like crowded malls, making them more enjoyable.

Fuzzing the Edges: What It Feels Like

“Fuzz the Edges” describes the calming effect of our products. It’s akin to the feeling you get from meditation, balanced eating, and regular exercise—more centered, with improved self-control. Our products are designed to help you navigate your day with ease, whether you’re facing stress at work, handling a busy schedule, or just seeking a more relaxed experience.

Conclusion

They’re perfect for those moments when you need a little extra help to “fuzz the edges” and make life’s experiences more enjoyable.
