OUR STORY

WHAT IS ANTARA?

ANTARA, which means balance, captures the inner wisdom of the body to bring about profound healing. Used for centuries in India, the Cannabis plant is a sacred form of medicine. The Vedas believed that its leaves were inhabited by a guardian angel, and associated the plant with happiness and relief from fear.

HOW ANTARA WAS BORN

The journey to ANTARA began with founder Cord Coen’s life changing car accident. Left with physical and brain injury including chronic pain, intense migraines that doctors said wouldn’t get any better, Cord decided to pack his bags and travel from Boulder, Colorado all the way to India. With the support of loving parents and a caring Indian host family, he spent an entire year doing yoga, receiving massage and internal herbal treatments, and practicing pranayama and meditation for up to eight hours a day. Finally, his pain subsided and his body healed. Cord felt so lucky to be given a second chance at healing that he set forth on a mission to create powerful potions that bring deep wellness, to truly transform the way people feel and function.

THE ANTARA STORY

The ANTARA Organics Collection was born out of a desire to provide a deeper sense of healing in our constantly connected world. Tapping into the transformative benefits of CBD, ANTARA was created to provide a profound and radical way to address today’s biggest epidemic: stress. Impressed with the research and anecdotal evidence of CBD’s impact on health and wellness, founder Cord Coen wanted to create a line of products that would put the power of healing into the hands of those who need it. However, it wasn’t enough to incorporate CBD into the line. Instead, we embarked on a mission to find the purest and most potent CBD available.

Fortunately, it was found in our own backyard. We’ve partnered with an organic farm in beautiful Boulder Valley that relies on snowmelt from the high peaks of Colorado to water its hemp fields. With an onsite animal sanctuary, the farm uses the hemp byproduct to nourish the animals living there.

Equally important as the sourcing is the method by which the CBD is extracted from the plant. As a result, we teamed up with a local distiller who relies on a patented and proprietary extraction process that eliminates the need for harsh chemicals. In this cutting-edge process the plant essentially cleans itself, and the hemp oil is extracted in a process similar to cold press technology, without the use of CO2, harsh chemicals, or additives. The collection features full-spectrum CBD, which incorporates all the naturally occurring compounds in the plant. Because it includes essential oils, fatty acids, terpenes, and other cannabinoids, full-spectrum CBD takes advantage of the “entourage effect,” which enhances the plant’s overall benefits when all the compounds work together.

Dedicated to fostering trust and transparency, the ANTARA collection of products features a QR (Quick Response) code detailing sourcing and third-party testing information. With a commitment to quality, ANTARA offers luxury healing and trustworthy formulations that address both mind and body.
