The history of using Cannabis to improve mood dates back thousands of years, however, some strains of Cannabis have been deliberately bred to increase a sense of happiness and positivity. Cannabis use can certainly have an impact on a person’s emotional wellness, but the relationship between cannabinoids (such as THC) and emotional wellness is intricate and interesting.

Understanding Happy Strains

What does it mean for a cannabis strain to be “happy”? The reason is its special chemical composition. THC for positivity usually has  even balanced levels of THC mixed with certain terpenes such as limonene and pinene that together provide uplifting effects. These strains not only induce euphoria; they also tend to boost creativity and sociability as well as overall well-being without overwhelming sedation. We learn THC promotes positive feelings via its interaction with the endocannabinoid system, specifically related to brain regions involved in mood regulation. When taken with careful intention, these compounds can foster a temporary shift in mindset, often allowing users to take a more positive view of their day-to-day experiences. Some strains — particularly those that have balanced THC and certain terpenes — can augment feelings of empathy and connection, making them suitable for group settings. The common high experienced from using these strains can bring on a type of brother/sisterhood and get a collective vibe going that makes everyone more relaxed and willing to share and open up.

Cannabis for happiness (UK): Top Cannabis Strains

The cannabis marketplace is flooded with strains bred for all kinds of great feelings. Some of the most famous ones are:
  • Lemon Haze – Known for its citrusy profile and energetic effects
  • Blue Dream – Balanced hybrid offering a gentle euphoria without an anxious mind
  • Jack Herer – Named after the cannabis activist, this classic strain provides lucid euphoria
  • Pineapple Express — A tropical-flavored strain that boosts social energy
  • Tangie — Tangerine-flavored strain mood-booster
Сannabis breeding around the world has led to more and more refined products built for other purposes, which not only uplift mood but also mitigate unwanted effects. This is a huge departure from older types of cannabis when effects tended to be less certain. But it’s important not to forget, that dosage, setting, personal biology and intention are all contributing factors as to whether or not a strain delivers the uplifting benefits you seek.

Positive effect strains (UK): Beyond Recreational Use

Strains for good vibes are already becoming a new thing beyond recreational contexts. Studies of cannabis as a treatment option for clinical mood disorders are continuing to grow. Studies suggest that some cannabinoids may modulate serotonin receptors analogously to conventional antidepressants, but by different mechanisms. In addition, happy strains are being more widely paired with other therapeutic practices, including mindfulness and creative expression. These properties can elevate the practice of meditation or creative endeavors to a higher level, opening up imaginative areas and expanding individual points of view. Be it for use at the easel, the table, or even simply self-reflection, these strains can also help unshake the joy in the social context, and therefore are perfectly suited to use in a social setting.
