Goodnight Moon: Why Smoking Herbs is the Perfect Nightcap for Your Day
In the great green mind, there was a record player kind, and Putin’s red telephone to Washington D.C., and a picture of a cow jumping over the room.
And there were three dudes with beards sitting on chairs, and two kookie cats in fedora hats, and a pair of mittens made out of kittens.
A bowl of Moroccan hash, and a crazy old lady humming Trey’s guitar intro to “Stash,”
And a pipe of Bear Blend, placing all the pieces of the world back onto mend.
Yes, an intro to truly blow the mind off Margaret Wise Brown, whose iconic book only sold a mere 8,000 copies by the time she kicked the proverbial bucket, having no tragic clue she was actually immortal like Jesus.
And it’s also the perfect way to end the night – settling all the pieces back together with an herbal smoke – a moment of reflection, contemplation, and a healthy puddle of evening drool.
Herbs – and not just the kind that were recently legalized by governments across the globe – are the perfect nightcap to a hard-wrought day: a moment of peace, a toke of tranquility, and fuel for splendid dreaming.
Why Kill Time When You Can Roll It Up and Smoke It?
Now your traditional nic-fit seeks to chase an addiction and kill Time. Life’s unbearable, and your hands are as bored as school prep boys in a Pink Floyd melody that don’t need no education.
But you, an herb smoker, are different. You don’t seek to kill Time. You seek to reclaim it.
Because you prefer an herbal toke, you seek to roll Time up and smoke it – pass it to the left in a communal circle of soul blend symphony of suncinctity.
There’s a keen difference between lighting up out of habit and settling into the ritual of ceremony. Your spot on the couch (or giant puffy bean-bag chair), the quiet mood, the slow exhale that tells your mind: "The day is done."
What you put in your pipe matters. Smoking herbs isn’t about filling an addiction – it’s about filling your life with meaning, contemplation, reconnecting with nature and wonder and the steady drip-drip-drip of mindful meditation.
Good Night Herbs Jumping Over the Moon
“Good night room. Good night Moon. Good night cow jumping over the moon.”
Night is all about settling into our dreams, pulling down the curtain of the mind, and drifting into the moon of relaxation. It’s about saying goodnight to the push and pull of the day, and saying goodnight to the daylight.
Herbs can be the perfect way to do that.
We chose many of the hand-selected herbs in our blends because they imbue a sense of relaxation, turning off the world and tuning into the essence of dreams and the subconscious hum of your inner psyche. Here are a few of our favorites:
Damiana enhances both patience and presence. It settles you into the cushions of your mind and enhances kicked-back vibes. This herb has traditionally been used to help ease tension, support a sense of emotional well-being, and promote relaxation.
Lavender flowers contain naturally occurring aromatic compounds, including linalool and linalyl acetate, which are widely appreciated for their soothing fragrance and potential calming effects. This herb offers a gentle, fragrant infusion traditionally enjoyed to ease everyday tension, encourage relaxation, and settle a restless mind.
Motherwort is a traditional calming herb valued for its potential to ease nervous tension, soothe feelings of restlessness, and support emotional balance. Often associated with calming an overactive nervous system, motherwort has traditionally been used to help settle feelings of uneasiness, irritability, and tension when life feels overwhelming.
Egyptian Blue Lotus contains two key compounds, nuciferine and aporphine, believed to contribute to its subtle psychoactive effects. Nuciferine, an alkaloid studied for its interaction with dopamine and serotonin receptors, may play a role alongside aporphine in the flower’s traditionally reported effects. Together, they are associated with a gentle, dream-like sense of euphoria, softened mental tension, and a subtle lift in mood.
Hemp Flower, not the cannabis THC-laden herb that gets you high, nevertheless has deeply relaxing qualities contained in its CBD. It helps relax the muscles, eases pain, and promotes relaxed sleep and deep dreaming.
