Main Topic: Shadow Work What is Shadow WorkCarl Jung said, “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is.”The idea of shadow work is to bring the dark sides out of yourself and learn to accept them. It’s not dangerous but can be scary and painful to bring these parts up and work on them. It can create healing and peace within yourself.It uncovers your subconscious motives and the reasons you do the things you do.

A co-worker was talking with someone about using CBD, the person they were talking to said they want to try CBD, then asked a question I have heard quite a few times: What CBD doesn’t show up with THC in blood work? This person is a single mom and concerned about having THC show up in her system. Let’s understand the Difference You have: Full Spectrum: Includes ALL active hemp-derived cannabinoids When you select a Full Spectrum CBD product, your product contains naturally occurring cannabinoids (including less than 0.3% THC), plant terpenes, flavonoids, vitamins, and minerals of the original hemp source. These compounds work together, multiplying the potential health benefits of each of the product components in what is known as the “Entourage Effect”. Broad Spectrum: Includes MOST active hemp-derived cannabinoids EXCEPT THC Broad Spectrum refers to a whole plant extract, in which all of the plant components remain except for THC. Broad Spectrum products contain an array of cannabinoids, plant terpenes, flavonoids, minerals, with ZERO THC, enhancing the potential health benefits. CBD Isolate: Includes ONLY 99% pure hemp-derived CBD CBD Isolate is cannabidiol in its purest form – a full spectrum product that has been further processed to remove the plant compounds. All that remains is a white powder that is at least 99% pure CBD with zero percent THC. This powder is then transformed into various CBD Isolate products such as oils and edibles. No matter which form of CBD you’re using if it is at or under the .3% THC then you will be good, anything at or under .3% of THC is not considered pot. In Texas both Delta 8 and Delta 9 are legal, that means if you have to do a blood test or a urine test and you do happen by some off the wall chance to pop hot then you can take the container of your CBD product that you are using and let them know what you are using. Times are changing and things are changing, don’t let people tell you that you can get in trouble for using a legal product. Now if you are in the military or a first responder then things are different, there is a zero-tolerance policy meaning even with .0001% of THC in your system you can get in trouble. If your company has this kind of policy for any reason talk to HR about this, it might be an old, outdated policy that has not been updated that needs to be looked at. Or there could also be a legitimate reason for the zero-tolerance THC policy they have. I’m not telling you to go rouge and just do it anyway. Talk to...
