What is cannabis coaching?
Working with our certified Cannabis Health Coach to learn how the cannabis plant will better your health and well-being. It combines the habit-changing techniques of health coaching with the knowledge of how the cannabis plant works in the human body, to help you achieve your goals.
cannabis can help
We have a natural high-level modulating system that interacts with cannabis, called the endocannabinoid system, which has receptors all over our bodies. This is why cannabis aids such a wide range of ailments from anxiety and menstrual cramps to diabetes and IBS. Due to this variety of use cases it’s easy to think cannabis is being oversold as a “snake oil” of sorts, but with the right guidance, it can bring us relief and connection. Some of the top issues our clients seek help with:
- Better sleep
- Reducing anxiety
- Relieving pain
- Reducing inflammation
- Improving sex
- Menstrual cramps and PMS
- Endometriosis Relief
- Improving mindfulness
- Reducing alcohol consumption
Our approach
Each human has a beautifully unique endocannabinoid system (ECS) that is responsible for maintaining homeostasis in our bodies. Because of our unique compositions, cannabis affects everyone differently depending on your ECS balance, weight, tolerance, history, lifestyle, and even what you eat that day. Unfortunately, the industry is lacking personal guidance when directing people to products and dispensary bud-tenders simply don’t have the time to advise each customer in an individual way they deserve. This is why we believe so strongly in the power of cannabis coaching. Each of our clients receives a personal cannabis guide which includes product recommendations, rituals, and regimes based on the insights we gain from our sessions together.
We believe cannabis is best integrated into our lives in micro-doses. The average THC in products has risen from around 1-4% in the 1970s to 15-30% (even up to 90% for concentrates) in today’s cannabis products you find in dispensaries. How we use the plant needs to reflect this. A lack of education and guidance leaves many consumers feeling disconnected, paranoid, and overwhelmed.
The cannabis plant dates back 12,000 years ago as nomadic humans roamed with seeds in their sacks and humans have been consuming it since at least 2,800 BC. It is a powerful plant ally put on this planet to help us. We must treat it with respect and develop rituals with intention to reap its wide range of benefits. We study both ancient history and modern research to ensure the best guidance for our clients.

FAQ
What if I tried cannabis before and had a bad experience?
We are sorry you had a negative experience with cannabis. This can be attributed to a multitude of reasons and isn’t necessarily just the plant. We are dedicated to helping you find a product, dose, set, and setting that will ensure a positive experience. Feel free to book a free consultation with our Cannabis Coach to address any specific concerns.
Do I have to get high?
No. The molecule that causes the “high”, THC, is just one of the hundreds of cannabinoids found in the plant. We work with the full spectrum of cannabinoids and are happy to omit THC from your ritual if you prefer.
Is this legal?
Yes, everything we do is legal by both state and federal laws. We provide cannabis guidance and education, not products. However, the legality of cannabis varies greatly from state to state so be sure to check the state of legal cannabis where you live.
What if I think someone else could benefit from cannabis, not myself?
Amazing. Recommend them to New Rituals coaching. Or it is also common for people to take our coaching courses in order to help their loved ones use cannabis consciously.
