Healing from the Inside Out

Cannabis, Bone Broth, and Comfort Foods for Cold Days

When the cold creeps in and the blankets come out, our bodies crave more than just warmth; they crave healing. Winter invites us to slow down, nourish, and reconnect with ourselves. And what better way to do that than with a steaming mug of healing bone broth, slow-cooked comfort food, and the calming, anti-inflammatory benefits of cannabis?

Let’s stir the pot and dive into the cosy world of CBD-infused broths, nutritional healing, and comfort food alchemy that feeds both body and soul.

Why Cannabis & Comfort Food Belong Together

Cannabis, especially CBD (cannabidiol), has quietly revolutionised the way we approach everyday wellness. Unlike its psychoactive cousin THC, CBD won’t get you high; it’ll get you balanced. CBD is known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, and pain-relieving properties, making it the perfect winter ally when joints get stiff and seasonal blues sneak in.

Pair that with comfort food, rich in nutrients and love, and you’ve got a recipe for inner peace and physical restoration.

The Magic of Bone Broth: Old-School Soul Food

Bone broth is not just grandma’s flu remedy anymore; it's a gut-healing, collagen-rich, immune-boosting elixir that keeps your body humming through the cold months. Rich in gelatin, amino acids like glycine and proline, and minerals like calcium and magnesium, bone broth helps to:

  • Repair and seal the gut lining
  • Support joints and bones
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Boost skin health
  • Strengthen the immune system
CBD-Infused Bone Broth Recipe – Winter Glow Bone Broth with CBD

Ingredients:

  • 1-1.5 kg organic beef or chicken bones (or a mix)
  • 1 onion, quartered
  • 3 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks of celery
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 1 thumb-sized piece of fresh ginger (optional, for extra warmth)
  • Water to cover
  • Salt to taste
  • CBD oil (dosed according to your needs, usually 10–25 mg per serving)

Instructions:

  1. Roast your bones (optional): For deeper flavour, roast bones in a 200°C oven for 30 minutes.
  2. Add bones and all ingredients (except CBD) to a large pot or slow cooker. Cover with water.
  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
  4. Simmer low and slow – 12 to 24 hours is ideal. Add water as needed.
  5. Strain the broth. Let it cool slightly before stirring in your desired dose of CBD oil. Don’t boil it post-CBD, as high heat can degrade cannabinoids.
  6. Sip, store, or use as a base for soups, stews, or risottos.

Pro tip: Use unflavoured, high-quality CBD oil or isolate to avoid clashing with your savoury flavours.

Food as Medicine, with a Cannabis Kick

Cold days can zap our energy and inflame our bodies. But nourishing meals rich in whole foods, slow-cooked nutrients, and plant allies like CBD can help regulate our immune system, support mental health, and fight inflammation from the inside out.

More than ever, we’re seeing a shift toward holistic healing, and combining the ancient wisdom of broth with modern cannabis science is an act of delicious rebellion against seasonal burnout.

Nourish. Heal. Repeat.

So light a candle, fill a bowl, and sip your way back to yourself. Your body will thank you. Your soul will too.

Final Thoughts

When it’s cold outside, give your body something warm to believe in. CBD-infused bone broth and nourishing comfort food offer more than a full belly; they offer restoration, resilience, and a path to healing that begins from within.

Here’s to delicious self-care, one cosy bowl at a time.
