Fun Activities With Friends Or A Partner

The feeling you get from laughter, creative bursts, or a newfound appreciation for art can all be amplified in a social setting. But what are those activities that make for the best things to do while high with friends?

1. Go For A Hike 

Any cannabis enthusiast will tell you that nature looks even better when you are high. There is nothing quite like the sensation of the cool wind against your skin and the sun on your face, made even better with a joint. 

Imagine you are walking along a beautiful path with a thick joint; the green trees and the blue sky above you are so beautiful. 

Each corner, each turn, brings a new stunning view. You breathe in the fresh air and feel the tranquility and energy of nature as well as the awesome feeling of euphoria. It is such a great way of reconnecting with the world around you and embracing what it has to offer. 

Pro tip: Pack a vape for discreet on-the-go consumption. Remember, safety comes first! Always stay on marked trails and be aware of your surroundings.

2. Go To A Music Festival Or Concert

Do you ever feel like music just speaks to your soul when you’re high? Us too! That is why a music festival or concert can be an amazing thing to experience when you’re high. You get to feel the high-pitched vocals and resonant bass even more, transporting you to a whole new level of enjoyment.

And if you can’t attend a concert in person, that’s totally fine! Virtual concerts are now a thing, and you can get to feel the magic from your couch.

You might be wondering what kind of music goes well with cannabis. Well, it depends on a couple of factors, but mainly the vibe you’re going for. 

Sometimes just listening to some soft music like reggae or electronica can be calming. If you are feeling peppy, go for some hip-hop or rock music. Ultimately, the best genre is the one that gets you grooving!

3. Paint And Puff Sessions

If you want to unleash your creative side why not try some cannabis? Painting and puff sessions are all the rage! Why? Adding cannabis to your painting sessions makes it possible to view the world through a different lens. 

The best part about these sessions is that you don’t have to be Picasso - it’s all about having fun and being silly. Online options are also available, with virtual paint classes that can be taken with guidance from experienced instructors. You can paint anything that comes to your mind: landscapes, abstract designs, or even your pet.

4. Play Video Games

Alright, let’s be honest, video games are cool in their own right, but with cannabis, you can turn it up to 11. Some games are ideal for that kind of relaxed attention that cannabis can induce. Here are examples:

• Open-world adventures: Travel through vast, open-world environments in titles such as Red Dead Redemption 2 or Cyberpunk 2077. 

• Puzzle games: Immerse yourself in the psychedelic aesthetics and abstract puzzles of games like Tetris Effect or The Witness. 

• Creative games: Explore the freedom of creation in Minecraft or the adorable world of Animal Crossing. 

Why is gaming so fun while high? Cannabis can improve your concentration and sensory experiences, making you feel like you are really in the game. 

It can also enhance creativity and help you develop new ideas or strategies for solving a particular problem in-game. So sit back, plug in your controller, and prepare yourself for an amazing gaming experience!

5. Visit An Art Gallery Or Museum

Visiting an art gallery is often described to be one of the best things to do while stoned. Cannabis can heighten your senses, making art more vivid and immersive experiences. While you are high, a piece comes alive in a truly profound way with its vibrant colors, intricate details, and emotional depth.

6. Watch A Comedy Show

Laughter is the best medicine, and comedy skits are even funnier when you're high. Heading to a comedy show is a guaranteed way to tickle your funny bone and have a night filled with laughter. 

Remember to read the local laws before you head out though as you won’t want to be caught driving while high.

The atmosphere and energy of live performances are all so contagious, so you’ll definitely find yourself laughing with the crowd.

7. Have A Movie Marathon

Sometimes, all you need is to immerse yourself into the world of movies and not bother with the complexities of the outside world. 

Light some incense, turn the lights off and put your phone on silent mode to fully immerse yourself with the movie you’re watching. Whether you’re in the mood for a cult classic, a thriller, or a comedy, there’s bound to be a movie out there to fit your mood.

Bonus points for movies that are visually appealing and leave you speechless like The Green Knight or movies that would encourage a good discussion with your friends.

8. Karaoke Night

Forget the shower performances, and let your inner rockstar come alive with a karaoke night! This is  a great way to unwind, hang out with friends, and maybe even discover a hidden talent (or two).

Who cares if you are not able to hit the right pitch or reach the right octave? The whole point is to go all out and belt out your favorite songs even if you don’t have the singing voice of an angel. All in all, the louder and more enthusiastic, the better!

9. Host A Potluck Dinner

There's something undeniably comforting about a delicious shared meal. Host a dinner where each guest is encouraged to bring their best homemade meal to make it a true food event. 

It is also a perfect opportunity to meet friends, have a good time speaking with them, and taste various delicious meals. 

Besides, it relieves the burden of one person being in charge of preparing all the meals! 

10. Cook Or Bake Together

If you are looking for what to do while high, why not try this? Cooking and baking are very interesting processes, and if done with friends, it becomes even more interesting. Turn on your favorite tunes, grind some weed for your recipes together and let the stress of the week melt away as you cook up your favorite cannabis edibles. 

Whether you’re making delicious cookies or challenging yourself with a great dinner, cooking together is a wonderful way to spend time together. Plus, the reward is a delicious meal that you can share with the entire team!

Fun Solo Activities

Sometimes, the best company is your own! Here are some fun things to do when high that are perfect for self-reflection, relaxation, and pure personal enjoyment:

11. Read A Book

Reading is considered one of the best ways to spend time alone. But add a little cannabis to the mix, and the experience can be truly immersive. Increased awareness and attentiveness make it possible to feel the story from within and get fully involved into the characters’ feelings and the world described by the author. 

Here are some great book ideas for you cannabis sesh:

• Science fiction and fantasy: Let your imagination soar with fantastical worlds and mind-bending concepts.

• Mysteries and thrillers: The suspense will feel even more intense as you race to unravel the clues.

• Classics: Appreciate the beauty of the language and complex storylines as never before.

12. Stargazing

Stargazing is one of the most fun things to do while you're high. Stargazing while high can be a very rewarding activity mainly because the night sky appears to be more beautiful and fascinating. 

Find a location with no interference from artificial light, carry something comfortable to lay on like a blanket or a chair, and download an application that will help you to identify stars and planets. Put on some gentle tunes and just think about life while looking at the sky full of stars.

13. Meditate Or Practice Yoga

Spare some time for meditation or yoga in order to free your mind from all the clutter. Choose a suitable corner in your home, switch on some soft music and also turn off bright lights to set the mood. 

Take a deep breath and try not to think about any problems that may be occupying your mind right now. With each breath, think about the air and good vibes flowing through your body. During exhalation, let go of all the stress or any form of negativity within you. 

Yoga can also be as beneficial in terms of helping you achieve relaxation and inner serenity. It’s a great way to stretch your muscles and there are numerous postures - we recommend going for poses you are comfortable with and maintaining them for some time. 

While doing yoga, focus on your breathing and the link between your mind and your physical self. Cannabis can amplify these effects, helping you to stay present and connected. After a session of meditation or yoga, you'll likely feel refreshed, centered, and ready to take on the day (or night!).

14. Get Crafty

Feeling creative? Let your imagination run wild with a fun craft project! Losing oneself in the act of making something by hand is one of the most liberating feelings. Some fun solo activities you can do include;

• Paint & Sip (Solo): Grab a paintbrush and start drawing on canvas or any fabric of your choice. That’s right, no pressure here, just have fun while doing it!

• Doodling Fun: Take some pens/pencils and let your creativity go wild on a piece of paper. 

• DIY Décor: Bring life into your home through DIY decorations! 

15. Take A Relaxing Bath

You can take a warm water bath and let the warm water wash all your worries away. Switch off the main source of light in your bathroom and place some candles in a few corners. The light, warm, and gentle lighting will immediately set the mood for relaxation and encourage you to relax in the tub and leave all the stress behind. 

To enhance this experience, consider incorporating cannabis into your bath session. Cannabis can elevate your relaxation by reducing muscle tension, alleviating pain, and calming your mind. 

Whether you prefer a THC-infused bath bomb or a CBD oil massage before soaking, cannabis can amplify the soothing effects of a warm bath, making it an even more rejuvenating experience. Let the combination of warm water and cannabis create a sanctuary of tranquility, allowing you to truly leave your worries behind.

You may want to add bath salts or essential oils for a more relaxing experience. Lavender is useful for relaxation, and eucalyptus is useful for unclogging your sinuses.

16. Journal Your Thoughts 

 Sometimes the best thing to do while smoking a joint is just to relax and think things through. Take out a piece of paper and a pen, or open a journaling app on your phone and let your thoughts spill

This can help you assess the state of your mind, what you want and what you’ve gone through. Putting things on paper is also a good way to let out any pressure or stress that you might be experiencing. 

17. Watch Your Favorite Movies 

There's a reason why curling up with a movie marathon is a beloved pastime. Put on your favorite comfy clothes, grab some snacks, and settle in for a night of cinematic bliss.

Whether you revisit an old favorite for the hundredth time or discover a hidden gem, movies have the power to transport you to another world and provide a welcome escape from reality.
