How is Earth Day and our Health tied together?

When our bodies are in a state of balance, it is said that it is in a state of homeostasis. When it is out of balance, our health can be compromised. For example, the Earth element in our body is associated with the spleen and the stomach, which are in charge of digestion. Excessive “Earth energy” can result in sluggish digestion, weight gain, bloating and a tendency towards stagnation and causing us to feel out of balance or just ‘off.” 

Not only does feeling ill cause us to feel an imbalance in our bodies but also when we feel anxious, stressed or depressed, as well. This can definitely manifest itself in many ways, including physical ailments and/or disease that disrupts our state of balance.

In case you didn’t know it, every human body has an endocannabinoid system. “The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a crucial role in regulating a wide range of bodily functions, helping to maintain balance and harmony within the body. One of the primary functions of the ECS is to regulate the release of neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that transmit signals between nerve cells.”

A natural way to get our body in balance or homeostasis is to use CBD, that comes from a hemp-derived plant. This helps to send signals to receptors in our body to get us back in balance – it is an attempt to get our bodies in a state of homeostasis.

And so, on a bigger scale, our Mother Earth is also trying to get back in balance, as we all have collectively affected its state of imbalance. The celebration of Earth Day is an attempt to get humanity in balance by helping to bring awareness to the harm we are causing Mother Earth and “It is an attempt to awaken the consciousness of humanity to the fact that we have endangered our planet, and as a by-product we are endangering our own lives.”

We must bring balance to both our bodies and planet Earth!

By bringing balance to our own lives and by being more conscious of how we treat the planet, we are bringing more harmony to the collective consciousness and therefore, bring balance to our Earth in more way than one!
