Cannabis + Sex. A key to unlocking greater sex or another new age hippy trend? Ashley Manta, the Cannasexual, talks to us about the powerful use of cannabis for enhancing pleasure, managing pain + PTSD in sex. She shares with us the numerous ways you can experiment in a mindful way + what to consider when you’re shopping around.

In this episode you will hear:

  • The myth of sativa vs indica + why you should consider experimenting with different strands
  • How cannabis can be used to relieve pain in sex
  • The different options for applications of cannabis + CBD
  • Mindfulness practices to aid in erections, orgasms, + more pleasurable experiences
  • How our individual body chemistries blend with cannabis to create different effects + why no two strategies are the same
  • How cannabis can be used in managing trauma + PTSD symptoms
  • How to work with cannabis so it does not become an escape + disconnect, but rather bring you into MORE connection with yourself + your partner

Ashley Manta even answers some of our audience questions:

  • “How can I smoke before sex without falling asleep?”
  • “Can cannabis distort the desire for a partner? Like, it wouldn’t be as good without it?”
  • “My girl always has to smoke before we have sex + I feel less connected with her. I don’t want to take something away that she enjoys, but I don’t feel as close.”
  • “Coming to climax while high is more difficult sometimes. How can I drop back in?”
