What's bio-availability?
Bio-availability refers to how much, and at what rate, something gets absorbed by your bloodstream. It’s important to understand the bio-availability of a substance because it helps you determine how much you need to take—and in what form—to ensure a proper dose actually ends up in your system. Otherwise, you may not feel the desired effects.
What is transdermal?
Our transdermal products provide 20X faster dosage and higher bio-availability. Absorbing 100% of the cannabinoids means you can know you're not just getting a singular isolate part of the plant and carrier oil. Our proprietary pain oil blend consist of therapeutic grade carrier with skin enhancing vitamins to aide with the heavy terpene profile. When using a topical transdermal method, you can consume cannabis in a way that’s smoke-free and calorie-free. Our oils and salts absorb directly into the skin and blood stream. This bypasses the digestive and respiratory systems which alleviates many of the side effects that go along with ingesting or inhaling cannabis for those that choose to not consume through those methods.

NANO TECHNOLOGY
POTENCY = PREMIUM PRODUCTS
Start low and go slow when using all plant medicine or anything that is maximum strength or potent. Having a concentrate or potent whole plant product gives the consumer the opportunity to get a full spectrum of results from the multiple active cannabinoids. It also allows the consumer to have a quality product that last longer, saving you the life span of the product and saving you from incurring additional product cost. With any concentrate or potent product start with a lower dose. There are no additives in our tinctures and capsules. The ingredients are the transdermal proprietary whole plant industrial hemp.
Plant medicine works with each individual's endocannabinoid system. Due to everyone's needs being different to include ailments and severity, desired effects, it is recommended to also take into account your weight when figuring out your dosage. A good example would be: A medium person weighing 151-240 pounds with severe pain would be recommended a dose of at least 25mg via the standard dosage from other brands. Someone with minor aches and pains may not need the entire dose. That's the importance in starting slow, saving yourself extra product expenses. To learn more email herballyfree@gmail.com.

When consuming plant medicine and herbal products, stay hydrated to ensure optimum results.
WHAT ARE TERPENES
When you think terpenes think effects, how do you want to feel? Although our Cannabis products are from the Hemp rather than Marijuana or Ruderalis genetics, cannabis in all forms still remain the most beneficial cannabinoid plant medicine.
The cannabis plant also contains terpenes, which are among the most abundant compounds in the natural world. Most terpenes are bioactive, which means they may affect the body. This effect will vary based on the concentration of the terpene itself and how a person uses it.
Most people only relate terpenes to aroma. Terpenes are what produces the vibrant smells to plants, trees and flowers. They also form the very basis of many essential oils and are an integral part of many alternative therapies, such as aromatherapy, massage therapy and other topical means. It is recommended if using terpenes as a regimen that you only ingest from a company or herbal source that offers pure concentrate, uncut and organic laboratory tested to ensure the highest quality and potency effect and can be ingested. Inhaling the scents from some plants and essential oils may affect a person’s mood and stress levels as well.
The terpene heavy proprietary blends that have been formulated was intelligently designed to ensure the full effect of each product.
PLANT MEDICINE
What is the Endocannabinoid System & Cannabinoids
In 1992, a naturally occurring substance in the brain that binds to CB1 was discovered, called anandamide. This cannabinoid-like chemical and others that were later discovered are referred to as endocannabinoids.
The most abundant of the cannabinoids is CBD, which is thought to have anti-anxiety effects, possibly counteracting the psychoactive effects of THC.
CBD, CBN and THC fit like you lock in key into existing human receptors. These receptors are part of the endocannabinoid system which impact physiological processes affecting pain modulation, memory, and appetite plus anti-inflammatory effects and other immune system responses. The endocannabinoid system comprises two types of receptors CB1 and CB2 which serve a distinct function in human health and well-being. Receptors are found on the cell surface, so the plant medicine is operating at a cellular level.
The recent identification of cannabinoid receptors has triggered an exponential growth of studies exploring the endocannabinoid system and its regulatory functions in health and disease. This system has been implicated in a growing number of physiological functions both central and peripheral nervous systems and peripheral organs.
Cannabinoids exert their effects by interacting with specific cannabinoid receptors present on the surface of cells. Researchers have identified over 70 unique cannabinoids within the cannabis plant. But with modern advances and technology discoveries are found everyday of the many different types of cannabinoids with plant medicine.
CBG, CBC and CBD are not known to be psychologically active agents whereas THC, CBN and CBDL along with some other cannabinoids are known to have varying degrees of psycho-activity.
Classes of cannabinoids
Cannabigerols (CBG)
Cannabichromenes (CBC)
Cannabidiol (CBD)
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
Cannabinol (CBN)
Cannabinodiol (CBDL)
Other cannabinoids including cannabicyclol (CBL), cannabielsoin (CBE) and cannabitriol (CBT)
Product Methods to Use
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
Eating any plant medicine fresh is the best benefits when trying to achieve the effects and benefits of the plant. If you have access to fresh cannabis, consume organic whole plant in a juice or add its flavor to your meal.
Sublingual
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
A method that is also an edible method and highly recommended for fuller healing properties of plants. Because edibles are absorbed through the GI tract, with our transdermal products they allow for a faster-rapid onset but a more potent dosage.
Tinctures have a more rapid onset by taking them without food. Hold the liquid tincture under your tongue for 30 seconds, the ingredient is more rapidly absorbed by the blood vessels in your cheeks and under your tongue. This bypasses your liver unlike eating a food that passes through the liver. Sublingual methods are faster because unlike an edible it doesn't have to be processed by the liver to be activated.
For our alternative and our personal favorite try our natural flavor dehydrated tincture. Like the old school breath fresh breathe strips, pop one in your mouth allow it to dissolve in your mouth and hold the salvation under your tongues or cheeks before instantly swallowing. The more you allow to absorb the longer you allow the plant to promote longer lasting effects.
Topicals
Use Fresh Plant Medicine
Topicals
Our nano transdermal topicals cross the blood brain barrier with an onset of less than 10 minutes to take the typical pain edge off. The duration can last longer than 3 hours. Our oils, salts and lotion have additional terpenes, plant medicine and minerals.
Edibles
Edibles
Topicals
A method that is highly recommended for fuller healing properties of plants. For typical onset time will be 30-45 minutes, with a duration of 2.5 hours. Because edibles are absorbed through the GI tract and have such high efficacy, it was important that we included our transdermal material into edible products. The nano allows for a faster-rapid onset but a more potent dosage. After your first dose if you haven't achieved your desired results (within the method of use time of onset), gradually increase your next dose in case there is a delay in your reaction to the plant medicine.
*Not all our edible products are transdermal, however those isolate products have an entourage of other plant medicine cannabinoids and terpenes.
Flower
Edibles
Flower
We do not offer CBD hemp flower aka the cured bud of the plant, However it is necessary that with so many using this method as the main method of use, I should discuss some important tips. It's important to bring awareness that the bud is excluding the full medical benefits, cannabinoids, terpenes and boosted effects. The method and effects are potent and relieving with the shortest duration of relief. Flowers have INSTANT onset with a duration of only 1.5 hours, hence the most used method. Flower is the cured bud and is also used to make oil with triglycerides and other fatty oils. This is also known as MCT or Isolate that offers some but not all of the WHOLE PLANT or Full Spectrum. Using flower also can cause a user to not have the full benefits of the whole plant that carries the most cannabinoid and terpene healing properties.
What's a Yoni V-Steam?
The Sophia Women's Health Line
Although our products are listed as yoni steams, they are also known in cultures as “v-steams”, “vaginal steams”, or “pelvic steams”.
Why?
A Yoni steam is an alternative and preventative means in gently and effectively cleansing the uterus of any stagnation, meaning build-up of old blood. It may correct many issues dealing with menstruation, fertility, and menopause. The healing steam and oils from the medicinal plants will aid your body in clearing old uterine membranes and restoring homeostasis. An imbalanced pelvic area can be extremely uncomfortable and painful with days full of irritability.
How does it work?
The heat of the steam, moisture and rising plant medicine supports balance that goes beyond just vaginal dryness and the softening of the womb, muscles and tissues. While you are steaming some may physically feel the increases in blood flow. Steams do not just assist in the vaginal walls, the steam also penetrate the pelvic region to include the bladder and bowl. Plant medicine can support these because of increased blood flow to support the uterus in releasing old tissue, trapped blood and other various gynecological issues. They are highly effective and helpful in pre-menopausal, post menopause dryness and has been reported globally to enhance fertility and assist in postpartum recovery.
These blends of organic and plant medicinal botanical and herbs have been known and reported to assist with menstrual discomfort and disorders, improve and increase fertility, treat uterine fibroids, cysts, prolapse, endometriosis, hemorrhoids, speed healing postnatal, assist with chronic yeast infection, relieve menopause symptoms, rids body of toxins and relieves stress.
It is recommended that you do not steam during menstrual cycles, however you can steam at any other time of the month after consulting a physician if you are under doctor’s care for gynecological issues.
Types of cleanse examples are 1 day cleanse and some cultures cleanse can be 3 day womb cleanses. No matter your choice, stay hydrated all day, build a self-love, self-care routine. Steams are best done in the evening so the body can absorb and fully receive the plant medicine. Do not be surprised to find tissue and membrane in the morning…you will be surprised of the build up of tissue and membrane that didn’t cleanse while menstruating. Create a ceremony to celebrate your woman hood and personal love to self. Cover your lap with a blanket to hold the steam in. While cleansing give blessings to all of you and all that you love and are grateful for. Meditation is best during this practice, with increased blood flow, body temperatures rise and sweating is probable. Sweat glands will release toxins as well as tension and blocked energy.
Allow aroma therapy to help aide while steaming through a diffuser if the earthy aroma from the steam is not aromatic to your liking. Have plenty of water before, during and after to help the body rid harmful toxins and aide in the cleanse. After 20 minutes, take your water and pour it out as a release of all things held inside that no longer serves you. Please carefully discard your water, clean and disinfect your seat.
If you don't know how often you should give yourself a steam, you aren't alone. Every woman and body responds differently, so doing more research and understanding what and how your body needs will help determine how often you will want to steam. You can do a one time steam as a maintenance or some experts suggest complicated disorders may benefit from multiple steams around their menstrual cycle throughout the month. Read more on the benefits and multiple techniques globally for Yoni Steams.
Results vary depending on your needs. Please consult your physician or functional medicine guidelines for further assistance.
