I know a few stoners that manage to smoke everyday, stay positive and productive, have life goals, and be very satisfied. The catch — they are all active martial artists that balance out their blazing habits with good food, good exercise, and good perspectives.

But most of us, I mean, of them, struggle with a lot of this.

I’ve been doing a personal sleep study over the past year, experimenting with different levels of cannabis use from none to a lot, and tracking my sleep quality with an Oura ring.

The trends in quality of sleep as they relate to cannabis use are stark and clear.

I’d love to write about what I discovered, but I’m not sure the best venue for the piece. Do you have any suggestions?
