5 Reasons CBD Will Boost Your Productivity

By

As many of us remain cooped up and working from home, we find ourselves with a new stress—balancing our everyday lives with the anxiety of work. It makes focusing tough and productivity a big challenge.

If you're looking for a natural way to boost your productivity, it's worth checking out CBD. With its soothing and calming effect, CBD can help minimize stress so you can stay on task and get ahead of the game.



Here are five ways you can boost your productivity with CBD.

Stick to a routine. It's true, business is anything but usual, but highly effective people tend to stick to a schedule to optimize their days. Since CBD helps with focus and sleep, it's easier to keep a routine going when you feel refreshed, alert, and awake. Whether it's taking the time in the early hours of the day to write, exercise, or eat a balanced breakfast, getting into healthy habits can add structure and prioritize what's urgent and non-urgent.

Minimize multitasking. While working from home, the mind can wander. With distractions including pets, kids, and social media, staying focused on the task at hand can be a real challenge. Taking CBD daily can help you focus and ease the anxiety that often makes us lose clarity and see tasks as overwhelming. We love the 15-minute rule, a hack to give something your full attention for only 15 minutes. This will optimize the way you work and help you get things done more quickly. It's also smart to break down your goals the way you might create a business plan—plot your yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, and even hourly goals so you can better meet and manage your expectations.

Prioritize sleep. We know that working from home can interfere with the sleep cycle, but getting the right amount of restorative sleep will help you function and fire more efficiently. CBD is epic when it comes to falling asleep faster, thus shortening that tossing and turning and overthinking we've all been doing of late. Without adequate sleep, your mind and body get out of whack; sticking to a schedule can be difficult when you're not getting enough rest.

Set time for self-care. The self-care moment can sometimes seem a little self-serving, but it's hard to take care of all the people and situations that need our attention if we don't first take care of ourselves. Work more mindfully by taking time outs for me time. Whether it's a walk around the block, doing a face mask, or meditating midday, stay aware of the present moment so you know when it's time to take a break. We love the idea of a more mindful approach to productivity, and since CBD is such a great stress reliever, taking self-care more seriously can help us from getting burned out.

Keep it moving. With so many options for WOFH while WFH, exercise is one of the best ways to keep your productivity high. By increasing your blood flow and getting your heart pumping, you can stay more alert and have more energy for everything that needs to be done. Since CBD helps with sleep and increases your energy levels, you'll feel more inclined to get in that morning HIIT class or step away from your laptop to keep your body moving and functioning at its optimal levels. Incidentally, CBD is great for relieving sore and stiff muscles if you've been pushing your workouts, and also promotes a feeling of overall wellness.
