"Sleep is so important to me, quality sleep even more so." - Hélène Ravlich, beauty editor
Your Journey to Calmer Days and Nights Starts Here
Notice the biggest shifts between weeks 4 and 8 of nightly use.
-
Week 1
The edge starts to come off
Passionflower and reishi are the first to show up, gently lifting GABA, your brain's calming chemical, so many women feel the sharpest edge of that wired, anxious feeling begin to soften in the first week. It's subtle at first, more "slightly less on edge" than transformed.*
-
Week 2
Bedtime feels less of a fight
As your body settles into the nightly rhythm, the racing, can't-switch-off mind tends to quiet sooner, so winding down at bedtime starts to feel a little more natural and a little less like forcing it.*
-
Week 3–4
Cortisol starts to settle
This is where ashwagandha and Relora do their slower, deeper work, helping bring down the cortisol that's been keeping your stress system in overdrive. Many women notice fewer of those jolt-awake moments, calmer nights, and a mood that feels a touch more even.*
-
Week 4–6
Steadier through the day, too
With cortisol coming back into balance, the calm starts spilling into your days, a longer fuse, less overwhelm at things that used to tip you over, and night sweats that feel less disruptive as your stress response steadies.*
-
Week 6–8+
A calmer new baseline
This is when the cumulative effect really lands. With your stress system no longer stuck on high alert, many women describe feeling more like themselves, steadier moods, more resilience to stress, and a sense of calm that holds rather than something you have to chase.*
Relax is for you if...
You feel overwhelmed by things that never used to bother you.
Your mood feels unpredictable and hard to control.
You feel wired and tense even when you are exhausted
Your night sweats disrupt your sleep
You've noticed more anxiety since perimenopause started.
You don't feel like yourself and want to get back to steady.
How Does It Work?
Plant-based ingredients | Third-party tested | Melatonin-free | Non-habit forming
Ashwagandha (KSM-66)
Ashwagandha is the cortisol-lowerer. It targets the evening cortisol spike behind that wired-but-tired feeling, and a meta-analysis of clinical trials found it reduces cortisol, anxiety and improves sleep quality, so your stress system can finally power down at night.*
Relora®
Relora is the stress-hormone brake. In a clinical study it lowered cortisol by 18% in stressed adults, easing the hormone imbalance that keeps your brain stuck in alert mode when it should be winding down.*
Passionflower
Passionflower rebuilds your brain's "off-switch." Progesterone used to feed your calming brain chemical, GABA, but as it drops in perimenopause that off-switch fades. Passionflower steps in to boost GABA again, helping quiet a racing mind, and it calms you without making you drowsy.*
Reishi
Reishi an adaptogenic mushroom known for centuries as the "mushroom of immortality." It works on your HPA axis, the body's central stress-control system, helping temper the cortisol surges that drive anxiety, irritability and broken sleep in midlife. It also brings immune support and anti-inflammatory action, calming the inflammatory load that leaves your whole nervous system more reactive, so you feel steadier from the ground up.*

Benefits of Ashwagandha During Perimenopause
Lowers the cortisol behind the stress
Ashwagandha is one of the most-studied adaptogens for stress, shown in clinical trials to lower cortisol, the hormone that climbs in perimenopause once progesterone is no longer there to keep it in check.
Helps you wind down for sleep
Lower cortisol at night means your body can finally power down, which is why women taking ashwagandha report falling asleep more easily and getting better-quality, more restorative sleep.*
Steadies mood and builds resilience to stress
As your stress system comes out of overdrive, the irritability and emotional ups-and-downs tend to even out, leaving you feeling more like yourself and better able to handle what the day throws at you.*
Calms anxiety and a racing mind
By steadying your stress response, ashwagandha helps quiet the anxiety and mental over-activity that build through perimenopause, so the constant sense of being "on" starts to settle.*
FAQs
Is Relax for me?
Relax is designed for women in midlife who want to feel calmer and more balanced. If stress feels harder to handle, your moods feel less steady, or your body feels “on edge,” Relax may be a good fit.*
It offers gentle, plant-based support for midlife changes without melatonin or sedation.*
What does Relax help with?
If perimenopause has made you feel like your stress tolerance has completely disappeared, you're not imagining it. Changing hormone levels directly affect how your body handles stress.
Things that never used to bother you feel overwhelming. Your mood is harder to predict. You feel tired but wired.
Relax works on the root cause: your stress and hormone system. The four plant ingredients work together to help your body produce less cortisol, support hormone balance, and bring your nervous system out of high alert.
Most women describe it as feeling more like themselves. Less reactive. More steady. More in control.
How does Relax work?
Relax blends adaptogens and Ayurvedic herbs that help your body handle stress and hormone changes during midlife.*
These botanicals are traditionally used to support the endocrine system and the body’s natural stress response, helping you feel steadier and more at ease day and night.*
Is Relax a natural alternative to melatonin?
Yes. Relax is completely melatonin-free.
Instead of adding external melatonin, it uses adaptogens and botanicals chosen to work with your body’s natural rhythms so you can feel calm and steady without feeling sleepy or groggy.*
Does Relax help with night sweats or hot flashes?
Night sweats and hot flashes are triggered by hormone changes, specifically the fluctuating estrogen levels that come with perimenopause.
Relax is not formulated to stop hot flashes
directly. But it works on the stress and hormone systems that can make them worse.
High cortisol can trigger and intensify hot flashes. Ashwagandha, one of the key ingredients in Relax, has been clinically studied for its ability to reduce cortisol. Many women find that lowering their overall stress response also reduces the frequency and intensity of night sweats.
Many women take Relax specifically for this reason. Results vary, but the mechanism makes sense.
What are the key ingredients in Relax?
Relax contains a unique blend of adaptogens and Ayurvedic herbs:
- Ashwagandha to support stress-response balance and steady energy during midlife*
- Reishi mushroom to support natural overnight regulatory systems and relaxation*
- Relora® (Magnolia & Phellodendron bark extract) to support calm body rhythms and evening wind-down*
- Passionflower to support a peaceful state of mind at bedtime*
How do adaptogens in Relax support women in midlife?
Adaptogens are traditional botanicals used to support the body’s response to internal and external stress. During midlife, many women look for adaptogens to support stress-response balance, steady energy, emotional equilibrium, and nighttime rhythm alignment.*
How long does it take to notice a difference?
Everyone is different. Some customers notice changes in their nighttime experience within the first week, while others find consistent use over several weeks provides the best support.*
Is Relax safe for nightly use?
Relax is melatonin-free and non-habit forming. It is designed for regular nightly use as part of an evening routine.*
Can I take Relax with other supplements?
Relax is made with thoughtfully selected botanicals. If you are taking medication, are pregnant, nursing, or managing a medical condition, we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before adding any new supplement to your routine.
Can I take Relax with Rest?
Yes. Relax pairs well with Rest as part of the Restorative Sleep System.*
Relax focuses on calm and balance.
Rest focuses on restorative sleep.*
Many women use both for layered support.*
Do I need to be in perimenopause to use Relax?
Relax is designed for women in midlife who want plant-based nighttime support. Many customers use it during perimenopause, menopause, or any time their sleep patterns feel less predictable.*
How to Support Your Endocrine System During Perimenopause
The endocrine system is a network of glands that sends chemical messages (hormones) throughout your body to control almost everything it does.
