What if cannabis wasn’t just something you consumed… but something that revealed you? In this episode of Cannabis School, Jesse and Brandon light up a conversation that cuts deeper than THC percentages or sativa/indica labels.
We explore the permanent chimera effect — that feeling when cannabis doesn’t just alter your state, it reflects it. From unexpected emotional shifts to a deeper awareness of self, this episode unpacks how cannabis can shape, distort, or clarify who we think we are.
Because sometimes… the high isn’t what changes. You are.
Terpenes
Myrcene – Calming, couch-lock potential; slows the mind
Limonene – Uplifting, bright; fuels introspection with a citrusy twist
Caryophyllene – Grounding, spicy; may help stabilize emotional responses
Cannabinoids
THC – Prominent; responsible for the introspective “mirror effect”
CBD – Present in low amounts; may buffer THC intensity
CBG (trace) – May support focus and emotional clarity
Effects
Deep introspection
Shifting emotional states
Mental duality: peace and anxiety, depending on your mindset
Strong body-mind connection
Occasional moments of “ego peeling” or self-revelation
Flavors & Smells
Citrus-pepper with earthy base notes
Slight herbal bitterness on the exhale
Smells like your brain might get rearranged (in a good way)
Common Uses
Creative breakthroughs
Meditation or self-reflection
Processing emotions or past events
Evening solo sessions
Philosophical debates you’ll half-forget but fully enjoy
Why It Matters:
This isn’t just about getting high. It’s about understanding why we feel the way we do when we consume — and how to navigate that space with intention. Whether you’re a seasoned user or just starting out, this episode invites you to get curious, not just about the plant, but about yourself.
Listen now and discover how cannabis doesn’t just show you the world differently — it might show you yourself.
