Experience the "Harmony of CBD & Yoga"

Industry experts answer questions and pair CBD edibles, balms and sprays with a restorative yoga session, June 17, Carlsbad by the Sea Hotel

CARLSBAD, CA – This past year has had a profound impact on our collective mental and physical health. Finding tools to combat stress and quiet the mind are more important than ever. Yoga Your Way, Flourish + Live Well, and Greenlife Organics have teamed up to inform, inspire, and demonstrate how combining CBD and Yoga can take your Zen to the next level.

The health benefits of yoga are well documented - improved flexibility and balance, back pain relief, relaxation and stress reduction, increased blood flow to organs, and more. CBD, the naturally occurring, non-psychoactive, chemical compound in the Cannabis sativa plant also has many health benefits. CBD can relieve pain, decrease inflammation, reduce anxiety and quiet the “monkey brain” that is constantly whirring, making to-do lists, and overthinking. Individually, yoga and CBD can work wonders – combining the two “might be the best idea ever,” according to Wanderlust.com.

This first ever “Harmony of CBD & Yoga” event takes place in the tranquility courtyard of Carlsbad by the Sea Hotel from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. The evening will begin with a Q & A session on CBD and its wellness properties moderated by Regie Brown and Jess Etchemendy. Regie is a CBD advocate and the owner of Flourish + Live Well, an upscale boutique featuring a carefully curated selection of hemp-derived CBD products. Jess is Director of Business Development at Greenlife Organics, a California State certified “seed to shelf” producer of 100% organic CBD products including oils, balms, edibles and sprays.

Following the Q & A, participants will be given an individual sample of Greenlife’s berry flavored CBD gummies to help find their calm. To address those problematic joints or sore areas of the body, a combination of Greenlife’s Full Spectrum Rebalance Butter and their fast acting Ancient Mayan Remedy Spray is included to be applied during the yoga session.

Next, Yoga Your Way co-founders, Heather Mackay and Mary Reaston, will guide participants through a sunset, restorative flow to release, relax and “let it go.” This flow will combine the Greenlife topicals with Heather and Mary’s expert modifications, making each pose accessible to all. These highly experienced and certified instructors will ensure that all of the benefits of yoga and CBD are maximized and explored during this soulful one-hour session.
