The speaker, Autumn, a certified clinical nutritionist with a long history of anxiety, shares her experience using CBD/hemp oil for over a year to manage her anxiety naturally. She emphasizes that CBD oil has helped decrease her sympathetic response, shifting her body from a fight-or-flight mode to a more relaxed, parasympathetic state, improving her overall well-being.

Autumn details that anxiety doesn’t stem solely from emotional stress but can also be triggered by physical and chemical stressors like excessive exercise, poor sleep, and environmental pollutants. By helping to lower her body’s stress response, CBD oil has made it easier for her to manage stress and reduce anxiety. She clarifies that unlike anxiety medications, CBD doesn’t dull one’s responses but rather lowers stress levels, allowing for a healthier response to stressful situations.

Throughout her journey, Autumn has combined CBD oil with other lifestyle changes such as walking instead of running, improving her diet, and focusing on activities that make her happy. This holistic approach has significantly reduced her anxiety over time. Initially, she used a higher dose of CBD but has since reduced her intake to two pumps at night, reflecting her lower levels of anxiety thanks to her comprehensive efforts to improve her mental health.

Autumn advises that CBD oil should not be seen as a standalone solution but as part of a broader strategy to manage anxiety, which includes daily habits and dietary changes. She also suggests considering CBD oil as a supplement, with consistent use yielding the best results.

While Autumn continues to use CBD oil due to its broad benefits and the constant stimulation from today’s environment, she also practices meditation, prioritizes sleep, and spends time with loved ones to maintain a balanced, healthy state. She speculates, without scientific backing, that CBD oil might also assist with fertility issues by improving blood flow to fertility organs, a theory based on the understanding that stress can impact these areas negatively.
