5 Ways CBD Can Help Teachers
So, you might be wondering, how exactly can CBD help our beloved educators conquer the classroom and beyond? With its impressive range of potential benefits, CBD can swoop in like a trusty sidekick and save the day (or at least make it a bit more manageable). Here are five ways CBD can lend a helping hand to the superheroes we call teachers:
Relieving stress – the “Sunday night blues” are gone!
We’ve all experienced those nerve-wracking Sunday evenings when lesson planning and stress team up for an unwelcome visit. You may even find yourself stress-eating a tub of ice cream, and it’s not even your favorite flavor! Luckily, CBD has shown potential in easing stress, making it a valuable ally for teachers. A study published in the Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology observed that CBD can ease stress in subjects, which could translate to a more relaxed mindset for educators as well. (1)
Soothing discomfort – say goodbye to aching feet from standing all day
Teaching can be a pain, literally. From pacing back and forth in the classroom to carrying stacks of textbooks, the aches and pains just seem to accumulate. However, CBD might offer some relief with its potential tension-relieving properties. Research has shown that CBD can interact with our body’s endocannabinoid system to help manage discomforts and tensions (3). So next time you’re facing a day full of teaching-related discomfort, remember that CBD could be your ticket to a more tension-free day.
Improving sleep – no more counting sheep or nightmares about grading papers
If you’ve ever had a sleepless night haunted by visions of ungraded papers and parent-teacher conferences, you’re not alone. Sleep deprivation can be a real challenge for teachers. Fortunately, CBD might be the key to catching those much-needed Z’s. Studies have shown that CBD can potentially improve sleep quality by reducing stress and promoting relaxation (5). With CBD by your side, you could wake up feeling refreshed and ready to conquer the day – no counting sheep required!
Boosting focus and mental clarity – mastering the art of multitasking
Imagine trying to juggle lesson planning, parent-teacher conferences, and keeping track of 30 students’ individual needs, all while trying to remember if it’s “i before e, except after c.” It’s no secret that teaching requires superhero-level multitasking skills. Fortunately, CBD may lend a helping hand by potentially improving focus and mental clarity. A study in the Journal of Psychopharmacology found that CBD could have a positive impact on cognitive performance and reduce the impact of distractions (2). With CBD by your side, you might become the legendary teacher who never forgets anything!
Enhancing mood – transforming from “Grumpy Teacher” to “Super(wo)man”
We’ve all had those days when everything seems to go wrong: the coffee isn’t strong enough, the copier is jammed, and you can’t find your favorite red pen. But fear not, because CBD might be the key to turning your mood around. Research suggests that CBD could help regulate mood by interacting with serotonin receptors in the brain (4). So, next time you find yourself transforming into the dreaded “Grumpy Teacher,” just remember that CBD could be your ticket to feeling more like a cheerful Super(wo)man!
