Potcast 245: Living A Full Spectrum Lifestyle

Through Mark England on Potcast 244, I was connected to a kindred spirit living that full spectrum lifestyle. We planned a pod swap and our potcast discovery call concluded with no agenda other than be in the flow and riff on what a full spectrum life means to us.

RYAN SPRAGUE is the creator of the “Connect With Cannabis” program & the “Grow With Cannabis” course. He is also the host of two podcasts. The “Highly Optimized” Podcast, and “This One Time On Psychedelics” podcast.

Ryan Sprague is the founder & co owner of Highly Optimized, a company dedicated to helping clients transform & become the conscious leaders the world is patiently awaiting. 

Ryan’s mission in life is helping his fellow brothers and sisters become empowered in their experience of being alive - through 1 on 1 men’s coaching, plant medicine integration coaching & retreat experiences. 

And my mission is to model an inspired life so that anyone who interacts with me feels empowered to do the same. If you’re feeling the gentle nudges of desire to expand your life beyond your current experience, this potcast is for you. It’s also for canna curious souls seeking to grow your relationship with cannabis and integrate plant medicine as a tool to optimize your day to day.

Now, in this chat with Ryan, get ready to explore a healthy cannabis infused lifestyle, doing the inner work, and growing plant medicine with conscious intention. This is a good one, my friend. So smoke ‘em if you got ‘em and settle in. It’s time to get casually baked.

MJ Relief is the muscle rub I co-created with my bestie Ph.D. formulation scientist, Monica Vialpando. 

MJ Relief is a CBD-infused muscle rub Ph.D. designed for what aches and pains you. Our challenge was to choose an entourage of ingredients all with anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and/or skin-soothing qualities. MJ is made by women, strong enough for performance athletes, and gentle enough for sensitive skin. Explore our ingredients and support your body and my small business at MJSkinRelief.com.

‘After the Show’ Notes

Are you ready to live a full spectrum lifestyle? I hope you spend time contemplating your relationship with cannabis. And if you’re inspired, please share this potcast with your smoke circle.

5 Daily Questions to Consciously Change Your Life

Don’t think you have enough time? Can you write one word down for these five questions every day? And if/when you have the time, you can write more. But all it requires is creating space in your life for contemplation.

And those questions are this:

  1. Who am I?

  2. What am I?

  3. Where do I come from?

  4. Where am I going?

  5. What is my purpose?

If this sounds like work you are being called to do, join the waitlist for Ryan’s latest endeavor, The Conscious Cannabis Collective.

The Conscious Cannabis Collective

This 12-month program is an opportunity to completely transform your relationship with Cannabis and begin living the life you dream of and deserve. Ryan guarantees!

Your experience will include ways to cultivate yourself, guidance on how to grow the highest-quality cannabis at home, and a complete training system for enriching your life and the lives of others through a conscious relationship with cannabis.

The program doors open on June 5, 2023. Join the waitlist by clicking the link below.

I also encourage you to join us in creating better language around one of the most healing plants known to humankind. 

In December 2016 I published a Cannabis Class resource guide which included a modern cannabis glossary complete with an A to Z explanation of cannabis as a tool.

Seven years later, Ryan Sprague and I will workshop a second edition and we’d love for you to join us. We’ll host a live, interactive sesh on social. Follow @casuallybaked and @therealryansprague on Instagram and stay tuned for the date.

Leave a comment below of antiquated words or phrases about cannabis and cannabis culture that could use a makeover; include ideas on a suggested alternative if you have one. (i.e. Smoking Flower vs. Smoking Weed).

And then bring your ideas and fresh vision for the future of cannabis to the live workshop (and smoke sesh if you got ‘em). And together we’ll craft a world that respects cannabis as both a medicine and lifestyle tool.


Reading Recommendation from Ryan Sprague

To say that quantum physics is the greatest scientific discovery of all time is not an exaggeration. In their discovery of the quantum realm, the physics community stumbled upon a genuine multifaceted revelation that can be likened to a profound spiritual treasure - a heretofore undreamed of creative power - hidden within our own mind. Quantum physics unequivocally points out that the study of the universe and the study of consciousness are inseparably linked, which is to say that ultimate progress in the one will be impossible without progress in the other.

Written for those with no physics background, Paul Levy's latest book, The Quantum Revelation: A Radical Synthesis of Science and Spirituality, is for those who have heard that quantum physics is a fascinating subject but don't quite understand how or why. Levy contemplates the deeper philosophical underpinnings of quantum physics, exploring the fundamental questions it provokes: What does it mean that quantum theory has discovered that there is no such thing as "objective reality?" How are we participating - via our consciousness - in creating our experience of a reality that quantum theory itself describes as "dreamlike"? What are the implications for us in our day-to-day lives that - as quantum theory reveals - what we call reality is more like a dream than we had previously imagined?
