Benefits of Cannabis for Creativity
THC makes relaxation easy, by helping you unwind and feel calmer. Reducing stress, it allows your brain to exert more creative energy, leading to exciting ideas being concocted.
“I think cannabis sometimes helps the random connections in my mind happen with less inhibition, increasing the unusual and original ideas that pop up.” Kate Clarke, the owner of ceramics studio Ficus Ceramica explained.
In addition to helping you relax and fostering creative connections, cannabis also has euphoric and uplifting effects that stimulate your brain, enhancing the excitement you feel about a project.
How does cannabis help artists?
By opening your mind and putting you at ease, cannabis can also foster creative relationships.
Keti Chikhladze, a cannabis photographer at KETIMAGES says that one of the most important things in professional photography “is connecting with the people I shoot with. Cannabis is great for relaxing before a shoot and making the whole experience more enjoyable. I believe that by enhancing the overall shoot experience, you can also elevate your creativity to another level, especially if you like to improvise and go with the flow.”
Keti Chikhladze takes gorgeous photos of people enjoying cannabis.
Her photography often features cannabis, which “inspires me literally in every way. The beauty of the plant, the aesthetic of leaves in flat lays, the way smoke swirls in the light from a lit joint, and the big clouds that my lovely models make!”
As a medium, cannabis can help generate many beautiful ideas and works of art. Clarke explains that the time-honored role of the ceramicist is “to make mugs and other pottery that touches people’s daily lives through food. The morning cup of coffee is a repeated and beautiful interaction between the artist and the customer. But it’s not confined to hot drinks and PG-level engagement. I want to touch your morning wake-and-bake, your afternoon pick-me-up, your nightcap, your relaxation time with good friends, your sexy smoke time with your lover.”
Have your own creativity floodgates opened after eating edibles? Like these artists, you too may find yourself generating unique ideas and enjoying new perspectives.
Does cannabis make you more creative?
Although there is not a lot of research on the topic yet, one theory is that THC can boost creativity by helping you relax and feel less self-conscious about your ideas.
“Cannabis allows all the barriers to the creative process to be torn down,” attests K.C. O’Rorke, lead singer and trumpeter with New Orleans funk band Flow Tribe. “It relaxes the feeling of being self-conscious and encourages the discovery of new ideas you might have overlooked. Also, it makes you laugh, which is great.”
Creative Ways to Enjoy Cannabis
Just as cannabis may inspire more creativity, the ways people enjoy THC are also getting more creative. Whether you’re smoking bud out of a food pipe or enjoying a refreshing THC drink, the cannabis industry continues to innovate.
You can use cannabis to help improve your creativity or get creative with how you’re using cannabis. Either way, you’re sure to have a good time.
