3 Ways Canna and Yoga Are Similar.

The 3 Ways Canna and Yoga Are Similar

Part 1

Both are very misunderstood.

The general public opinion of Canna is that it is just a party drug used to escape reality and has no deeper value to offer society.

The truth is that 🌿 is a medicine, a source of protein, a spiritual plant ally, a biocomposite plastic, a building material, a seed oil, a fabric source, a carbon footprint reducer and a sustainable biofuel.

The general public opinion about Yoga is that it is about creating different shapes with your body. People believe you are really “good at Yoga” if you can make all the shapes. 

The truth is that at Yoga’s core, these shapes (asanas) are only 1/8th of the entire practice. The practice is really about self-realization; while it is also a therapeutic medicine, a moving meditation and a guide on how to live compassionately through this human experience.

Part 2

Both are spiritual practices.

Cannabis has served as an entheogen—a chemical substance used in religious or spiritual contexts, across the globe and throughout our entire human history.

It has been used as an anointing oil, burned as incense, and consumed as a priestly elixir in religious ceremonies across most, if not all, societies and cultures for millennia.

At its core, the philosophy of Yoga is based on a set of principles that guide practitioners toward self-realization. Like Buddhism, Yoga philosophy stresses the importance of interconnectedness, compassion and the transcendence of the individual ego.

The full practice of Yoga helps us to cultivate a deeper understanding of ourselves, our connection to all living things and our place in the world. 

Part 3

Both can be overused and deserve to be respected.

When C🌿nna is overused, it will diminish it’s magic. Using it often creates a high tolerance, which means you need more to feel the effects.

Needing more will also affect your finances and your overall wellness, which can create imbalances in your daily life.

When Yoga is overused, it usually shows up as physical injuries to our bodies.

Over eager and excited students who subscribe to modern society’s “no pain, no gain” theory can end up seriously hurting themselves physically.

This result is the opposite of Yoga’s intention.
