Finding the Yin and Yang in Cannabis Strains

Hey everybody! Glad to be here to drop another article for Cookies Sacramento. I’m going to get a little gushy here and spread some love to Cookies for letting me write and dispense information about Cannabis, Cannabis products, and you know… just everyday items which I hope you all might be interested in.

This article is coming at a special time, in fact my favorite time of the year. March is one of my favorite months for a variety of reasons and is despised by others for the very reasons I like it. I’m a real contrarian at times, it makes life a little more interesting…

But, yeah, back on track, March is a month full of uncertainty. You look outside and you see the cherry blossoms blooming and daffodils happily facing the sun one day, and the next day the wind is blowing the hood off your car and spitting rain in your face because you didn’t bring an umbrella. March is a month that comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. It’s the unpredictability of March that I find so beautiful, the variety of the winter season giving way to spring. It’s the most yin of yang months in my opinion.

So, as I was thinking about that concept, of unpredictability and how it creates an ebbing and flowing between forces of nature… I considered the yin and yang effects of cannabis and cannabis products, the nature of how their uses can help bring balance to individuals and their lives. And how March is a great month to explore the known effects of hybrid strains that unlock the best of both worlds’ between Sativa and Indica dominant strains.

Before we start and because this article wouldn’t be complete without it… be sure to visit Cookies Sacramento the next time you need to find high quality cannabis flower and products. Their friendly budtenders and staff are always there to help you all pick out the right cannabis products and essentials.

Oh yes, and maybe, you know… here’s a little blurb about what the idea behind what yin and yang are for those who aren’t familiar. ChatGPT do your thing…

“Yin and yang, rooted in ancient Chinese philosophy, depict the interplay of two opposite yet complementary forces in the universe. Yin embodies qualities like darkness, passivity, and intuition, while yang represents light, activity, and logic. The symbol, a circle divided into black and white halves, symbolizes their dynamic balance. They coexist in a state of constant flux, influencing natural phenomena and human life. Harmony arises from their interdependence and balance, with imbalance leading to disharmony. Embracing their diversity fosters a deeper understanding of existence and promotes equilibrium.”

So you see where I’m going here? Yup hybrid strains for sure.

All About Hybrids

And I’m not talking about cars here, though I do think I could repurpose this article to cover the yin and yang nature of vehicles, but I really don’t want to segway into that. No pun intended.

But yes, for most of us, there are two strains that define cannabis flowers. We often think of Sativa Dominant Strains and Indica Dominant Strains. Sativa’s are known for giving off euphoric, energized, and awake effects. And then at the other end of the spectrum are Indica’s, which are commonly known for giving off relaxed, easy-going, and maybe even drowsy effects. Personally, I tend to lean towards Indica Dominant strains to help me sleep and (well) because I’m an all-out stress case and need to dial myself down a bit. But that’s just me.

But I have found that sometimes it’s nice to have a little mixture of the best of both worlds’ so to speak. Like, who doesn’t like a hot apple pie slice or say a freshly baked fudge brownie… topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Something about that hot and cold is just pure “chef’s kiss.” And further, to really experience existence, it’s a bit unnatural to say that there is only one season, or one way, or one route… it’s a bit rigid, life and circumstances often call for flexibility. As in the quote here:

“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” – Lao Tzu

Nature is flexible and adapts. So yeah, let’s look at some great hybrid strains for your yin and yang march month. Maybe they will broaden your horizons and enlighten your expectations.
