About Amy Chin
Amy Chin is a CBD/Cannabis Coach and Founder of Calm Better Days. As a sufferer of anxiety and postpartum depression, she found great relief with CBD. I understand from my own experience that it can be challenging to get started with plant medicine. To help, Calm Better Days guides CBD Curious folks on how to access the benefits of plant medicine. From how CBD works in our body, understanding the nuances of different delivery methods, and figuring out your ideal dosage. We’ll review your current mental and physical health goals together, and you’ll receive a tailored recommendation of CBD products to address those issues. Calm Better Days is a huge supporter of small farmed, women, and BIPOC-owned brands.
