Everyone knows traveling can be a nightmare. I understand why so many people want to self-medicate before facing the clusterfuck that is the airport (especially in New York). While that’s all well and good, I can’t tell you how many stories I have heard about people freaking out on prescription drugs or too much booze during flights. Many people don’t realize the change in altitude and pressure dramatically affects your body, and sometimes does not mix well with those drugs.
I have the unfortunate dilemma of being a former smoker/weed enthusiast turned flight attendant -- which means I can be subjected to random drug tests for work. As a flight attendant, I feel the brunt of the travel industry in more ways than you can imagine. From 15 hour work days and full system blackouts to endless weather delays...I’ve seen it all.
The biggest issues I experience while traveling are physical. The constant time changes, altitude variations, and change in diet drastically affect my body. Some of the symptoms I suffer from when traveling include: incessant back pain, motion sickness, bloating, jet lag, fatigue and anxiety.
I’m sure many of you fellow travelers experience similar problems, so we are here to help you heal from the inside out! Here are some ways to enjoy the benefits of CBD so you can zen out for your next trip!
