Lighting Up Later in Life

Service Description

It may surprise some that the fastest growing demographic of cannabis users in the United States is seniors. According to an article in the NewYorker, seniors turning to marijuana are about evenly split between those (often older than 70) who never tried marijuana before and those who haven’t used marijuana since the hippie era but now have a fuller understanding of its medicinal benefits. In our classes you will learn how to navigate the typical dispensary, with its overwhelming options of concentrates, edibles, vape pens, and tinctures. Understand the amazing health-giving compounds found in cannabis—THC, CBD, terpenes, and more—and how to use topicals to reduce pain and give your skin a healthy glow. Even advice on how not to get high but still reap all the amazing health benefits.
