As you begin thinking about starting a new relaxing nighttime routine that includes using your CBD oil, you need to consider what you’re using it for. This will help you make some decisions in terms of your new routine with the CBD.
Figuring Out the Timing
When putting together a good nighttime routine that also includes using CBD oil, timing is something that you want to consider. Why? Because the time of night you use your CBD will change depending on what you are using it for.
Consider this: You are using CBD to help you sleep. Naturally, you will want to use it closer to bedtime, as the effects will not wear off before it’s time to actually go to sleep.
However, someone who is using the CBD for anxiety, might need to take it earlier. This is because your routine might have more activities in it to help with your anxiety, as opposed to someone who has a shorter sleep hygiene routine for insomnia.
How Much Should You Take?
This is also a good time to decide on the dosage that is right for you. By now, you probably know the basic advice that you should start first with a low dose to see how it affects you, then gradually increase it if and when you need it.
This is still good advice to take, but you might also want to think about what you’re using it for. For example, if you have chronic pain, inflammation, trouble sleeping, and a lot of stress, you are trying to take it for multiple things at once. This often means you need a little higher dose in order to help manage everything with the CBD.
What Type of CBD do You Want to Use?
Your routine might also change a little depending on the type of CBD you go with. For example, if you are using the wax that is used in a vape-style pen, this can be used while you are journaling or writing in your planner. On the other hand, if you use a
tincture, you might prefer doing this just before bed as it is easy to do and only takes a few seconds.
Anything Else Going into Your Routine?
Lastly, consider what else might be included in your routine when deciding if CBD should be part of it, and how the routine will go. While it might change day to day, it is easier to become a nightly habit when you have more of a routine that is at least
somewhat the same each night.
