Mood elevation and stress relief. Interacts with serotonin receptors, reducing anxiety and brightening mood. The terpene behind citrus-forward strains that feel uplifting rather than heavy.

The most abundant cannabis terpene. Increases cell membrane permeability, allowing THC to cross the blood-brain barrier faster. High myrcene = heavier, more sedating effect regardless of strain type. The primary predictor of couch-lock.
