In states where marijuana is legal, “stoned yoga,” or basically doing yoga high, has become a lucrative business. It’s trendy, people love it, but like all things that seem too good to be true, doing yoga while high may be masking true feelings of physical and emotional pain—delaying true spiritual work and personal growth.

The high that people experience with marijuana is from THC’s affect on the nervous system. While not everyone has the same response, weed generally increases feelings of calm by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system. Marijuana simultaneously boosts the reward hormone dopamine, making the experience even more fulfilling. People who get high say they feel less anxious, more relaxed, more self-awareness, and more meditative and spiritual. Some say they feel more coordinated and are less injury prone when practicing yoga while stoned.

While cannabis can prompt dopamine hits and reward chemistry, research also shows that with continued use, dopamine levels decrease and the enhanced feeling of fulfillment declines. This effect encourages you to chase the reward with higher doses and more frequent experiences with weed.
