Known for its effects on anxiety, pain, sleep disorders and even PTSD, CBD has increasingly become a tool to help restore balance and calm in the body. CBD gummies are a convenient low-dose method that we will discuss, using steps to explain formulating and preparing them.
**We do not ship CBD, but will send gummy molds, a measurement dropper, necessary gummy making materials and flavoring. Students are responsible for purchasing their own CBD oil prior to this workshop. We provide a reference video guide on how to choose a CBD oil that will work well for this workshop to all enrolled students in advance.
In this workshop, students will learn:
- How does CBD work on the body and what does it do?
- The differences between CBD and other products on the market
- Making edible preparations – how fast does it work and the mechanics
- How do pain receptor messages get transformed?
- Complementary methods for pain management and sleep disruptions
- Accurately measuring dosage
- Correct techniques for setting gummies
- Flavor and the role it plays in perception and intention
- Students will go through all the steps of making a batch of infused gummies, using materials sent out and CBD infused oil they provide themselves.
Student Equipment needed:
- Liquid CBD oil (enrolled students will have access to a tutorial video for guidance on picking out an appropriate distillate oil)
- Two 8-oz containers and 1 pint (16oz) container to measure solutions into (either glass or plastic is fine)
- Medium-sized metal bowl
- Medium stock pot
- Small stock pot
- Spatula, large spoon (small whisk and tiny spatula also helpful too)
