Prana (Cannabis Life Force)

🩺 Medicine First mentioned: Ep. 016

A concept borrowed from yogic tradition, applied in cannabis to describe the vital life force energy present in whole-plant preparations. Prana-conscious cannabis products aim to preserve the plant's full energetic and chemical spectrum through minimal processing.

The prana concept was discussed in Episode 16 and 18, with references to prana as the life force in cannabis preparations. Todd McCormack and the panel discussed preserving prana in extraction methods and how it relates to the full spectrum approach of maintaining all terpenes and cannabinoids.
