Do You Need to Relax?
Relax sleep support is for you if you're experiencing:
Insomnia: Difficulty falling or staying asleep, often due to hormonal fluctuations or anxiety.
Night Sweats: Sudden, intense hot flashes during the night that disrupt sleep.
Restless Sleep: Frequently waking up during the night or feeling unrested upon waking.
Difficulty Entering Deep Sleep: Struggling to reach restorative sleep cycles, leading to waking up feeling unrefreshed.
Frequent Night Wakings: Waking up multiple times during the night due to changes in hormone levels or discomfort.
Why Relax Works
Relax uses the calming and soothing properties of adaptogens to support your enochrine system during perimenopause.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is a powerful adaptogenic herb that's been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries and is prized for its ability to:
- Reduce stress and anxiety
- Improve sleep quality
- Boost energy levels
- Support hormonal health

Reishi
Pre-clinical research shows reishi supports sleep via modulation of the gut microbiome and serotonin pathways.
Reishi helps to reduce stress and supports the adrenal glands.
Relora
Magnolia (in Relora) can reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, as well as the time spent in REM and non-REM sleep by activating GABA receptors in the brain, thereby calming the body as a whole.
Magnolia also helps improve sleep by reducing the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol (both of which can be a driver of hot flashes/night sweats in perimenopause).
Passionflower
Passionflower helps reduce feelings of anxiety, thereby helping support better quality of sleep.

FAQs
How does Relax help with perimenopause sleep issues?
Relax by Opal & Joy is specifically formulated to address sleep disturbances during perimenopause. Its unique blend of adaptogens, including Relora®, red reishi, and ashwagandha, work synergistically to support your natural sleep-wake cycle.
These ingredients help reduce anxiety, ease muscle tension, and regulate stress hormones like cortisol, which can disrupt sleep during perimenopause. By promoting relaxation and calming the mind, Relax helps you fall asleep faster and enjoy more restful, uninterrupted sleep throughout the night.
Can Relax help with night sweats during perimenopause?
Yes, Relax is designed to help manage night sweats, a common perimenopause symptom that often disrupts sleep.
The adaptogenic herbs in Relax, particularly ashwagandha and Relora®, have been shown to help regulate body temperature and reduce the frequency and intensity of night sweats. By supporting adrenal function and balancing stress hormones, Relax can help minimize night sweats, allowing for more comfortable and uninterrupted sleep.
What are the key ingredients in Relax and how do they support perimenopause?
Relax contains a powerful blend of natural ingredients specifically chosen for their perimenopause support:
Relora® helps to reduce stress and anxiety, supporting better sleep quality.
Red Reishi supports sleep via modulation of the gut microbiome and serotonin pathways.
Ashwagandha reduces stress and anxiety, supporting adrenal function during perimenopause.
Passionflower helps reduce anxiety and promote relaxation for improved sleep.
These ingredients work together to address multiple aspects of perimenopause, including sleep disturbances, stress management, and hormonal balance.
How do adaptogens in Relax support perimenopause and menopause symptoms?
Adaptogens like ashwagandha and reishi in Relax play a crucial role in supporting the body during perimenopause and menopause. These natural compounds help the body adapt to stress and hormonal changes by:
Balancing cortisol levels, reducing stress and anxiety.
Supporting adrenal function, which becomes increasingly important as ovarian hormone production declines.
Modulating the endocrine system to help ease hormonal fluctuations.
Reducing inflammation, which can exacerbate perimenopause symptoms.
By addressing these key areas, adaptogens in Relax help alleviate common perimenopause symptoms such as mood swings, fatigue, and sleep disturbances.
Is Relax a natural alternative to melatonin for perimenopause sleep support?
Yes, Relax offers a natural, melatonin-free solution for perimenopause sleep support. Unlike melatonin supplements, which can lead to dependence or disrupt your body's natural melatonin production, Relax uses adaptogens and herbs to support your body's innate sleep-wake cycle.
Ingredients like Relora® and passionflower help calm the mind and reduce anxiety, while ashwagandha and reishi support overall hormonal balance and stress reduction. This holistic approach promotes healthy sleep patterns without the potential side effects associated with melatonin use.
How quickly can I expect to see results from using Relax for perimenopause symptoms?
While individual experiences may vary, many women report noticeable improvements in sleep quality and reduced perimenopause symptoms within 2-4 weeks of consistent use.
For optimal results, we recommend taking Relax as directed for at least 4-6 weeks. This allows time for the adaptogens and herbs to build up in your system and provide maximum benefits. Some women may experience improvements in relaxation and sleep quality even sooner.
Can Relax be used alongside other perimenopause supplements?
Yes, Relax is designed to complement other perimenopause supplements and can be safely used as part of a comprehensive perimenopause support regimen.
In fact, for best results, Opal & Joy recommends using Relax in conjunction with their Rest supplement as part of the Restorative Sleep System. This combination provides a holistic approach to addressing perimenopause-related sleep issues and overall symptom management.
As always, it's advisable to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen, especially if you're taking medications or have underlying health conditions.
