CBD for Stress and Anxiety: THC-Free Options and What to Know

Beehive Blends Exhale zero-THC CBD spray for stress and calm

"Do you have anything for stress?" is one of the most common questions we hear at our Riverton and American Fork stores. Busy jobs, family schedules and long commutes add up. Many people add CBD to their routine to help them feel more balanced, and here's what we tell first-timers.

Important: CBD is not a treatment for anxiety disorders. If you're dealing with ongoing anxiety, panic or depression, please talk to a doctor or mental health professional. If you take prescription medication, check with your doctor before trying CBD, since CBD can interact with some medications.

Why people reach for CBD for everyday stress

CBD is a non-intoxicating compound from hemp, so it won't get you high. Researchers believe it interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system, which is involved in things like mood and sleep. Research on CBD and stress is still developing, and everyone responds differently, so the best approach is to start low and pay attention to how you feel.

THC-free options we carry

Beehive Blends Exhale Spray

Exhale is a zero-THC sublingual spray with 4000mg of CBD, CBG and CBN, made by Utah-based Beehive Blends for stress relief and calm. Because it's sprayed under the tongue, it absorbs faster than a gummy.

Wyld Peach CBD:CBC Gummies

Wyld Peach pairs 20mg of CBD with 10mg of CBC per real-fruit gummy, with no THC. Customers choose it for mood balance and relaxation.

Simple THC-free gummies

If you'd rather keep it simple, our 25mg Wyld THC-free gummies come in raspberry, blackberry, huckleberry and lemon.

Stress keeping you up at night?

Try Nocturne, a zero-THC, zero-melatonin spray with CBD, CBG and CBN. See our guide to CBD for sleep without melatonin.

How to start

  1. Pick a format. Sprays work faster; gummies are easy and pre-measured.
  2. Start with the lowest serving on the label.
  3. Be consistent. Many people find a daily routine works better than occasional use.
  4. Keep notes on your serving and how you feel for a week or two.
  5. Drug tested? Stick with THC-free formulas and read our drug test guide.

Pairing CBD with healthy habits

CBD works best as one part of a routine that includes sleep, movement, time outdoors and talking to people you trust. Utah has amazing trails and canyons close by, so a walk can go a long way too.
