Our bodies contain cannabis-like, naturally-occurring neurotransmitters my neuroscience professor called, “brain weed!”
Flourishing in our nervous system whether we partake in cannabis use or not,
one of these endocannabinoids, anandamide (ananda in Sanskrit =bliss ) has almost exactly the same molecular structure as cannabis.
Our euphoric neural communicators maintain homeostasis, regulate sleep, mood and memory, and relieve pain.
We feel high when THC binds to these impressive receptors, which every organ has.
Anandamide is also conveniently found in cacao (my favorite plant).
How can we ever doubt our significant, undeniable interconnection with one another and the Earth’s abundant gifts?!
