Who doesn’t love summer? The temperatures are warmer, the days are longer, and there’s plenty of sunshine. It’s the perfect time to get outdoors and enjoy life. Whether you prefer lounging in the grass, getting lost in nature, or spending time with friends at a local event, there’s no shortage of relaxing summer activities. And incorporating cannabis can make them even better.
Not sure where to start? We’ve got you covered with this list of five great summer activities that pair perfectly with cannabis.
1. Take a Hike
While immersing yourself in nature via a hike or walk in the woods can already be an incredibly refreshing experience, doing it while high can give you a whole new appreciation for the natural world. During your excursion, be sure to take time to stop and appreciate everything around you.
Do you typically avoid hiking or spending time in nature due to allergies? Here’s a bonus. Cannabis may offer allergy symptom relief!
2. Have a Picnic
Elevate your next summertime picnic with a cannabis-infused spread. From hummus and guacamole to spreads and sauces to delectable desserts, there’s no end to the types of outdoor dining-friendly foods you can include in your basket.
Of course, you don’t have to pack infused foods to enjoy a picnic with cannabis. Another option is to take a hit from a joint or vape pen before you tuck in to enjoy your meal. Cannabis heightens the senses, which can make food smell and taste better.
3. Go Camping
For some people, there’s nothing more relaxing in summer than escaping everyday life to go camping. Adding cannabis to the mix can enhance the experience. The soothing effects of a calming strain can help you forget about daily stressors and get back in touch with nature — and yourself.
4. Gaze at the Stars
Even when the days are blazing hot, the temperatures become much more enjoyable after the sun sets. Clear summer nights are perfect for stargazing. Grab a blanket, a friend or loved one, and your favorite strain to lay out and marvel at the universe. Plus, the stars look a little brighter when you’re high.
5. Step Into the Water
Whether it’s a pool, ocean, lake, or river, stepping into the water is a welcome respite from the summer heat. Enjoying some cannabis before you do can make your dip even more refreshing. How, you might ask? Along with heightening your senses, cannabis may lower your body temperature, aiding in your efforts to cool off as you relax.
