Gifting Wearing CBD
World - Looking for a new gift idea, try wearable CBD. Give it for some relax, warm up, and happy time.
Hue has an assortment of CBD infused clothing to choose from. Check out CBD infused socks first. They have two kinds of socks to choose from. They have night crew, and day and night no show. Talk about staying warm in a chill. They also have CBD top and bottom sleep sets. Add the socks, and off to snuggle up to the warmest wonderland. Trying to stay warmer and chill more, Hue has three different leggings infused with CBD as well. Gifts that keep the warm super chill going.
According to Hue, the benefits of wearing CBD clothing “are thought to help relieve pain, improve bodily homeostasis in times of stress or fatigue, and enhance the body’s response to physical activities like exercise.” https://hue.com/leggings/featured/cbd-infused/. CBD is released from the clothing onto the skin by friction. It should be noted that the site also states that the CBD lasts 30 washes. That could be 30 wears of an ultimate warm chill time.
Does CBD clothing really relax you? According to a Cnet article, wearing CBD leggings for a workout can seem to bring less pain. When comparing wearing the leggings to wearing CBD cream the article stated: “It’s basically like taking a much more complicated route to get to the same destination: CBD on your skin which can absorb into your muscles.” https://www.cnet.com/health/nutrition/cbd-infused-activewear-does-it-work/
CBD cream, CBD jammies, CBD socks, add some lavender candles, and that would make the ultimate gift of all gifts.
Three Cheers for Germany
Germany - As reported in the Michigan Marijuana Report and around the world in October, the politicians in Germany were heavily discussing marijuana legalization in the country as a major part of their platforms. With elections over and the new government leadership in place it is being reported that Germany will indeed legalize marijuana. When the laws come into place it will make them the third country in the world, and the first in Europe, to free the weed, next to Uruguay and Canada.
The Social Democratic Party, the Free Democratic Party, and the Greens that are now the German coalition said, “’introducing the controlled distribution of cannabis to adults for recreational purposes in licensed shops,’ according to a translation of a multi-party working group report first noted by Funke Media and circulated by Der Spiegel.” https://www.marijuanamoment.net/germany-set-to-legalize-marijuana-nationwide-after-major-parties-reach-agreement/
Even though the lawmakers say that the tax revenue from the sale of weed in Germany is not the reason for legalization, the revenue is estimated to give the country 1 billion euros a year.
As a part of the law, marijuana will not be allowed to be advertised in the country.
Luxembourg Coming Up Close
According to a tweet from the European Greens, a group of parties in Europe that work as one party to support green politics across the continent, on October 22, stated that Luxembourg decriminalized marijuana. They posted that in Luxembourg, “Regulation of cannabis use and cultivation: adults will be able to legally cultivate up to four cannabis plants for their own use, provided the cultivation is happening at their place of residence.” https://twitter.com/europeangreens/status/1451564268340527113
Luxembourg has the highest GNP per capita in Europe, so freeing the weed will add even more money into the tiny, wealthy country with a population of 632,275.
The country may be hit with global warming flooding as was this past summer when the country was devastated in July when torrential rain made the many meandering rivers in the small country to overflow. Luckily there were no reported deaths as there were in Germany from the flooding. If there continues to be flooding from rains or warming, any extra revenue from marijuana sales would be a great net to aid for recovery and repairs.
High on the Highest Point
Nepal - Activists in Nepal are pushing for national legalization.
According to Nikkei Asia last year, “The legislation calls for decriminalizing the production, sale, and consumption of cannabis by nullifying the 1976 Narcotics Drugs Control Act. That law stipulates three years of jail and a fine of 25,000 Nepali rupees ($210) for anyone found growing marijuana. Similarly, anyone found trafficking in it faces a prison term of between two and 10 years, plus a fine of 1,000 rupees.” https://asia.nikkei.com/Politics/Nepali-lawmakers-push-marijuana-legalization2
Health Minister of Nepal, Birod Khatiwada said just this fall, “I am trying to make it a campaign and issue in Parliament because many countries including the most powerful and developed countries have allowed the use of marijuana. The new law would ensure that the benefit is not going to go to one industrialist or small group of businesspeople but rather it will benefit the poor farmers who would use their small plots of land to grow it.” https://www.ganjapreneur.com/cannabis-legalization-legislation-introduced-in-nepal/
Nepal is a special place. Mount Everest is located at the southeast side of the country, and there is Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal and THE spiritual and artistic realm. Even though weed is illegal now in the country according to Nikkei Asia, “Cannabis has had cultural and religious significance in Nepal since ancient times. For Hindus especially, the Shivaratri festival honoring the god Shiva is celebrated every year with offerings of the plant. It is widely used during the festivities and security officials refrain from making arrests.”
