Sleep and Smarter Decisions

(Please read our disclaimer)

You’ve probably heard the saying, “I’ll sleep on it.” It turns out, there’s real science behind that advice. Sleep deprivation affects the brain’s ability to handle stress, distractions, and unexpected changes. According to research, those who regularly lack quality sleep struggle more with communication, innovation, and even everyday problem-solving. For parents, professionals, and caregivers, that can add up quickly.

What Does Quality Sleep Look Like?

The Department of Health and Human Services recommends 7–9 hours of sleep for most adults. But the quality of that sleep matters just as much. According to the Sleep Foundation, good sleep means you fall asleep within 30 minutes, stay asleep through the night, and wake up feeling refreshed. Interrupted or shallow sleep can be just as harmful as not sleeping at all.

Melaleuca’s Restful Solutions

The Melaleuca Wellness Guide recommends RestEZ, a natural, non-habit-forming supplement that promotes deep, restful sleep. It’s made with a powerful combination of melatonin, ashwagandha, L-theanine, and valerian root—ingredients shown to calm the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and improve overall sleep quality. Studies suggest these ingredients help increase total sleep time and leave you feeling more rested the next day.

You can also support better sleep with essential oils like lavender, marjoram, and sandalwood. Lavender aromatherapy, in particular, has been shown to increase deep sleep and leave people feeling more energized in the morning.

A warm cup of Melaleuca Herbal Tea before bed, along with the Peak Performance Nutrition Pack, supports relaxation and helps regulate your sleep cycle naturally.


Getting better sleep isn’t just about feeling rested—it’s about making clearer decisions, improving mood, and protecting your long-term health. So go ahead—sleep on it. Your body and mind will thank you in the morning.
