Goodbye Insomnia

SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Cambria Gallery - San Francisco (see times)
Are you having sleepless nights? You aren’t alone. Roughly 30–35% of adults experience the symptoms of insomnia on a temporary basis. These symptoms include the inability to fall or stay asleep, fatigue during the day, mood disturbances, poor memory and the inability to focus. Meanwhile, up to 20% of adults experience longer-lasting insomnia (up to three months), while 10% have chronic and ongoing insomnia.
The good news is cannabis can help you beat insomnia and enjoy a better night’s sleep. Studies show that many patients report falling asleep easier and more quickly after consuming cannabis. In addition, cannabis can decrease episodes of sleep apnea, helping patients sleep more consistently throughout the night.
HelloMD’s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Perry Solomon will speak with Chris Emerson, Ph.D, co-founder of Level, to share the “what” and the “how” of treating insomnia with cannabis.
Some of the questions we’ll cover in this workshop include:

How does cannabis work within our bodies?
Why does cannabis work to alleviate insomnia?
What part do cannabinoids play in the treatment of insomnia?
Why consume cannabis in lieu of pharmaceuticals?
What cannabis products work best in the treatment of insomnia?
Do I need to be high in order to treat my insomnia?

Chris Emerson has worked with folks who suffer from insomnia across California. Anecdotally, he’s seen the positive results that cannabis can provide.
This fireside chat will be followed by an audience Q&A, where everyone will have a chance to ask questions.
This workshop is an educational, non-consumption event.
