Election Day Jitters? Try These Tips From A Certified Wellness Coach
We’re here to give our Members a one-on-one approach to CBD — because CBD is not one-size-fits-all.
With Election Day 2020 right around the corner, we’d like to take some time to address something that’s on everyone’s mind: stress about voting. Whether you’re voting from home or making your way out to your local polling booth, we know that this can cause some apprehension & uncertainty — and we’re here for you! So let’s talk about some ways to minimize angst & stress this November.
Equilibria has two main ingestible products — the Daily Drops and our Daily Softgels — and many women find these to be a game-changer for their stress and patience-levels (and who couldn’t use a little more patience these days?!)
Daily Drops
Our Daily Drops are great for in-the-moment situations — perfect for times when you’re needing something FAST!- Work best when held under the tongue for 60 seconds, that way the CBD can absorb through your sublingual glands!
- Kicks in quickly — typically 10-30 minutes!
- The effects last 4-6 hours, depending on your metabolism
- Women often report that they feel more calm, grounded, and patient after using the Drops
Daily Softgels
Our Daily Softgels are great for behind-the-scenes relief — your insurance policy against stress!
- Work best when taken with a meal or a snack. Once the Softgel gets to your stomach, it needs some food for the CBD to bind to!
- Kicks in within 1-3 hours
- After it kicks in, the Softgel releases a slow, steady drip of CBD for up to 8 hours!
- Women often report that the Softgel is a very gentle, subtle way to experience CBD
Election Day Is Approaching
Our Member Education Team speaks with women from all backgrounds, from all political beliefs, and from all parts of the country. And one thing is for certain: we’re all feeling the stress of this year. With Election Day coming up, many of us are planning ahead and deciding “Should I vote in person or vote at home with a mail-in ballot?”Whatever voting method you decide to go with, we’ve got some tips & tricks up our sleeves to help you feel cool, calm, and collected come November 3rd.
Be Prepared
If you know that you’re going to vote in-person at your local polling booth, be prepared by taking your CBD ahead of time. For many of us, it may be nerve-wracking to leave the house at all. Especially if you’ve been quarantining and working from home most of the year! Having a plan in place can help reduce stress & nervousness once Voting Day rolls around. So choose to vote at a time where you aren’t rushed or in a hurry.Plan Ahead — Take CBD Before You Leave
If you find that you have jitters just thinking about leaving the house, consider this: Try taking 1/2 Dropper (5mg/0.5mL) of your Daily Drops about 30 minutes before leaving the house. Be sure to hold the Drops in your mouth for about a minute, that way the CBD can absorb fully.
The Drops take around 10-30 minutes to kick in — so the idea is to have your Drops kicking in right when you get out of the car to go vote! CBD can work by helping regulate our Fight-or-Flight response.
Take your Drops. Mask up. Let your voice be heard!
After You Vote
Many women love bringing one of the Rollerball Duos in their purse (great for keeping right next to your sanitizer!) The Rollerball Duo comes with one energizing scent and one calming scent — so pick whichever one you feel drawn to and roll it directly on your wrists, temples, and neck! This is a great way to ground yourself and relax when tensions are high.Once You Get Home — Celebrate & Unwind
Once you get home from the voting booth, it’s time to congratulate yourself! Getting out in public during 2020 can be stressful on the best day, so be sure to be kind to yourself. You might find it’s a nice time to hop in the bathtub and enjoy a calming, luxurious Balancing Bath Bomb with 50mg CBD.
Topical CBD products work by interacting with the CBD receptors on our skin and can help reduce inflammation, ease tension, and manage areas that are sore or tense.
