Whether you're smoking flower, enjoying some edibles, or hitting a vape, the experience should be fun and memorable. While chilling out and feeling the relaxing effects of cannabis can be fun enough on its own, getting high is even better when you pair it with other activities.

If you've used cannabis before, you already know that it can make even the simplest and most mundane activities feel like the most fun things in the world. That's why we've put together this list of our favorite things to do while high, including some everyday activities that weed can transform into amazing experiences.

1. Watch Something Awe-Inspiring

One of the most fun activities to try while high is getting lost in a trippy, high-concept film or TV show. Smoking weed or enjoying an edible can deepen the emotional impact and wow factor of your favorite movies and shows, especially the ones that already have that awe-inspiring quality.

We recommend getting high with friends and putting on one of your favorite sci-fi movies. The result is an incredibly mind-bending experience that can definitely lead to some good discussion after the film is over. Try watching Inception, Gattaca, Dark City, or Solaris while high to get a sense of what we mean.

In addition, if you want to take this one step further for an equally good time, try watching one of the quintessential stoner movies after lighting up. Dazed and Confused, Beavis and Butthead Do America, and Licorice Pizza are all great options.

2. Listen To Music (Especially New Artists)

Using cannabis can make music more enjoyable, and it can deepen your appreciation for new genres and styles. If you want to get the most out of your high, try putting in your earbuds, taking a walk, and getting lost in an album you've never heard before.

Weed and jazz have a long-standing connection and a rich history, and we love pairing classic jazz albums with high-quality cannabis. A Love Supreme by John Coltrane and Kind of Blue by Miles Davis are some of the best jazz LPs of all time, and their sound is always enhanced by smoking weed. When you get high and listen, you'll experience a sonic treasure trove of complex melodies, improvised licks, and more.

If you're looking for creative things to do while high, you can always try making music (even if you don't consider yourself a musician). This is a fun way to let your imagination run wild, and it's a technique that bands from Pink Floyd to The Beatles used to get fresh inspiration.

3. Bring Out Your Creative Side

Weed is known to enhance creativity, and that's why we recommend getting into your favorite creative activity while high. Whether that's art, creative writing, photography, or, like we already mentioned, music, weed can open up new dimensions of inspiration and flow.

If you aren't in the mood to make some type of art, you can always go out and appreciate art made by others. Visiting an art gallery or going to a music festival while high is always a fun time, especially if you're with friends who are also enjoying the effects of cannabis.

4. Enjoy Nature

One of our favorite things to do while high is exploring the great outdoors. Weed can get you into a peaceful state, and enjoying nature can do the same. Putting the two together always feels amazing and gets you reconnected with the world around you.

Taking a peaceful nature walk is one of the best things to do while. You'll get some fresh air, spend time surrounded by natural beauty, and get to relax and focus on the amazing effects of cannabinoids like THC and CBD. Expect to come back from your weed + nature walk and feel refreshed, refocused, and ready for the rest of the day.

5. Try Baking or Cooking Something New

Like we said before, cannabis can make mundane activities feel like an adventure. That's definitely true when it comes to cooking and baking while high.

If you want to get a sense of what we mean, get together with some friends and try making a new recipe together. This is one of our favorite high activities ever because you end up satisfying the weed munchies once you're done.

For some bonus points, consider baking your own edibles using cannabutter made with Mood's premium cannabis flower. This is a fun way to get high with friends while showing off your baking abilities.

6. Board Games of Video Games

If you want to vibe out and take it easy while high, play video games. We recommend something peaceful and immersive like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Skyrim. Both of these games have sprawling worlds, beautiful music, and a self-driven pace that make them perfect for combining with weed.

If you're getting high with friends, playing a classic board game is one of the best things you can do to enhance the experience. Try Settlers of Catan or Monopoly for a longer-lasting game that you can spend a whole afternoon playing.

7. Get Lost in a Good Book (Or Write One)

Reading might not come to mind when you're thinking about fun things to do while high, but believe us when we say that cannabis can transform the way that you experience a book. By helping you focus and ground yourself, weed can make it easier to have a good time reading and fully appreciate a storyline.

If you're a writer yourself, take advantage of weed's impact on creativity and write while high. Combining weed and writing can be one of the best things to do if you're struggling to find inspiration and want to take your current manuscript up a notch.

Get in Your Best Mood

Smoking weed can be an amazing experience on its own, but the feeling is even better when you combine it with fun activities. Listening to music, watching a movie, or enjoying nature are just a few of the most fun things we've done after smoking weed or using an edible, and we definitely recommend them.
