"As someone who has always taken a more holistic approach to healing, I was waiting for the chance to try medical cannabis for anxiety that has plagued me for most of my life."

The Serene vape pen which has a 5:1 ratio of CBD to THC, is my go-to when I’m needing immediate relief.

Maura’s Journey

My medical cannabis journey began when it was finally approved in my state. As someone who has always taken a more holistic approach to healing, I was waiting for the chance to try medical cannabis for anxiety that has plagued me for most of my life.

I was diagnosed with Postpartum Depression after giving birth to my second son and was put on anti-depressants. These helped me get through that season of life, however, it came with side effects that were not enjoyable.

In the past, I had also tried other forms of anti-anxiety medications but those often left me feeling sedated and sleepy. Now I can finally have relief from anxiety without all the side effects. The Zen tincture is my go-to daytime formula; the 1:4 ratio of CBD to THC, and the terpene profile, makes me feel calm and happy without feeling sleepy or tired.

The Serene vape pen which has a 5:1 ratio of CBD to THC, is my go-to when I’m needing immediate relief. For me, this product helps ease anxiety without the strong psychoactive effects that may get in the way of productivity. I’m so grateful to have found relief using natural plant medicine.

Many others are also turning to medical cannabis to treat various conditions with great success. Find out if medical cannabis is right for you.

I had my first visit to Surterra recently and was absolutely floored by the amazing service! Surterra went above and beyond to help me select products and make smart choices for my first time order. Kind, respectful, and helpful are just a few words I would use to describe my experience. I will absolutely be coming back again!! Thank you so much! You made my day!!

These guys are top notch across the board. I've been to other places and they PALE in comparison. Their products are the only ones that have helped with my chronic pain disorders and mental disorders. Their customer service is like THE BEST, for real!!! They greet me by name and the vibe is great! It always makes me in a better mood just walking through the door. They always have sanitizer in the dispenser too. Oh!!! And check out what I got with my loyalty reward points 😯 so cool!! Thanks y'all for making my days better 🫶
