You've just taken a THC-infused energy booster, and now you're wondering what to do next. Don't worry, because we have plenty of ideas ready for you!
Whether you're in the mood for something chill or want to kick back with friends, here's a plethora of fun things to do while high.
Beginner-Friendly Activities for First-Time Users
If it's your first time smoking weed or popping an edible, sometimes simple and familiar activities work best.
The cannabinoids found in cannabis interact with the brain's endocannabinoid system, which helps regulate mood, sensory perception, and relaxation. Additionally, THC can influence your brain's frontal lobe, heightening your senses and making everyday experiences feel immersive.
These low-pressure activities will help you relax and enjoy the new sensations.
1. Listen to music
Music takes on a whole new dimension when you listen to it while high.
Put on a pair of headphones (it's more immersive this way, trust us!) and play your favorite tunes. You'll likely discover small details that you never noticed before, like layers of instruments, subtle rhythms, and emotive lyrics.
Use it as an opportunity to enjoy new artists and genres. For instance, classical music can sound mindblowing while high.
2. Take a hot shower or bath
Water can feel incredibly soothing during a cannabis experience, especially the sensory aspect of it flowing over your body. And if you're feeling a little nervous, a bubble bath will help you relax.
Light some candles, play some soft music, add a few drops of essential oil, and you'll have an inviting spa-like environment ready to go.
3. Laugh
Cannabis enhances humor, and things that would normally seem only mildly amusing are suddenly hilarious.
Spend time with people who make you laugh or watch silly videos on social media. Stand-up comedians and comedy films are also great for inducing fits of giggles.
4. Assemble (and eat) an amazing snack plate
Getting the munchies is a given when you're high, so you might as well lean into it.
Prepare a mouthwatering snack plate with a mix of flavors and textures. Sweet, salty, crunchy, sticky, sour, creamy, the list goes on. Explore new tastes and enjoy the sensory nature of eating.
5. Walk in nature
Many users like to get out in nature because they feel more connected to it when high. Colors and sounds are more vivid, and you can "feel" the energy of the earth.
Take a walk in a local park or around your garden. If you prefer something more ambitious, take a short hike in a forest or national park. Touch leaves, hug a tree, admire the flowers, take in the fresh air, and appreciate the world.

6. Watch a documentary
Documentaries can seem eye-opening, and they often spark thoughts about larger questions in life when high.
Subjects like planet Earth, space, and our oceans are particularly good. We also recommend documentaries on more niche subjects like aliens or microscopic organisms.
Creative Activities to Try While High
Cannabis gives you enhanced creativity, so you may as well take advantage of it.
To heighten the experience, we recommend taking THC with CBD for extra focus. Once your edibles have kicked in, let your imagination run wild and try one of these creative things:
-
Create a vision board: What does your ultimate dream life look like? What are your goals and aspirations? Get it all down in a visual format.
-
Make music: Use proper software, play an instrument, or just bang pots and pans together to create a new sound.
-
Draw and doodle: Don't think too hard, just draw. Let your hand doodle whatever comes to mind first.
-
Make a nature collage: Collect twigs, leaves, shells, pebbles, and other items, and lay them out in an intricate pattern.
-
Try a new hobby: Whether it's crochet, knitting, baking, or something else. Whatever you've always wanted to try, now is the time.
-
Sculpt with clay: Clay feels incredibly tactile when high. Squish it, mold it, and maybe even make something useful with it!
-
Try poetry: You're a poet, but you don't yet know it. Try it while high, and let your imagination fly.
-
Paint with your body: Paintbrushes are too ordinary! Use your fingers, feet, or your entire body to create art.
