While there is some research indicating that cannabis use can increase introspection and emotional awareness, the scientific evidence is still limited and mixed.
One study published in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs found that cannabis use could enhance emotional awareness and facilitate the expression of emotions. The study surveyed 140 cannabis users, and participants reported that they felt more relaxed, introspective, and emotionally open after using cannabis.
Another study published in the journal Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research found that cannabis use was associated with increased mindfulness, which is the ability to pay attention to one's thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations in the present moment. The study surveyed over 800 cannabis users, and those who reported using cannabis more frequently also reported higher levels of mindfulness.
