Could cannabis be the unexpected hero in pain management and insomnia relief? This week, we navigate the gritty, sometimes baffling world of chronic pain and insomnia with David Sharp, the author of Cannabis Lullaby. A personal journey that put him through the wringer of misdiagnoses and ineffective treatments, we learn how David found solace in turning to natural plant medicines in the form of medical cannabis. Hear how David's resilience and unwavering determination ultimately led him to discover an alternative path to healing and wellness.

What does it take to treat chronic pain holistically? It's no secret that the US healthcare system leaves much to be desired when it comes to treating chronic pain. Our conversation with David is an exploration into the need for patients to play an active role in their healing, the importance of patient accountability, and the shortcomings of conventional medicine. David's story is a testament to the significance of addressing the root cause of physical symptoms, in his case, an unprocessed childhood trauma. In this interview, David shares his holistic approach to recovery, where he utilized paradoxical relaxation meditation, trigger point therapy, and cannabis to regain his health.

But, how effective is cannabis in managing pain and promoting sleep? David's initial skepticism, his surprise at the effectiveness of cannabis, and the bureaucratic roadblocks he faced to access it will make you rethink what you thought you knew about cannabis. We'll also explore the pitfalls and potential of cannabis research, the ongoing debate around cannabis in healthcare, and the need for patient insights. We spotlight the importance of choosing the right strain and consumption method, the potential side effects, and the specific types of patients who should tread with caution. Join us in this enlightening journey as we debunk misconceptions and shed light on the potential benefits of cannabis for chronic pain and insomnia.
