🌙 Sweet Dreams Are Made of This: The Wellness Bundle That Helps You Actually Rest
I know what it’s like to struggle with sleep—not just a restless night here or there, but years of 24/7 parenting and running on empty. I was eventually diagnosed with a sleep disorder and had to go through sleep therapy, which completely changed how I approached my evenings, my nervous system, and honestly... my entire relationship with rest.
Over time, I had to build habits that helped me not just fall asleep—but stay asleep and get the kind of deep, restorative rest my body actually needed.
That’s why I created the Sweet Dreams Wellness Bundle. It’s built on everything I’ve learned—from traditional plant medicine, to nervous system retraining, to simple rituals that actually make a difference.
If you’re tired of being tired… this might be the thing that helps you come back to yourself.

🛏️ Erin’s Top Tips for Deep, Restful Sleep
Let’s make this a full-body ritual—not just a product.
-
1. Dim your lights—or better yet, switch to red lighting—at least 2 hours before bed. Your body' internal clock aka circadian rhythm, for which light plays a huge role in regulating it. Bright lights (especially blue-toned light from phones, TVs, and overhead LEDs) signal your brain that it’s still daytime—this keeps cortisol levels high and delays your body's production of melatonin, the hormone that helps you fall and stay asleep.
By dimming your lights or using red or amber-hued lighting in the evening, you help your body transition naturally into rest mode—lowering stimulation, calming your nervous system, and setting the stage for deeper sleep.
-
Write tomorrow’s to-do list down—then let it go.
Literally feel the mental load leaving your brain and landing on the page. You’re done with it for the night. Let that shiz go... release it for another day. -
Infrared sauna or Epsom salt bath—both help your body shift into rest mode.
Whether you’re stepping into the dry, radiant heat of an infrared sauna or sinking into a magnesium-rich Epsom salt soak, the goal is the same: drop into your body and cue your system to relax.Both practices help reduce stress hormones, relax tight muscles, and activate the parasympathetic nervous system—the one responsible for deep rest and recovery.
And yes—studies have shown that taking a hot bath 1–2 hours before bed can significantly improve sleep quality and help you fall asleep faster. As your core body temperature rises during the bath and then drops afterward, it naturally signals to your body that it’s time to rest. The effect is remarkably similar to what happens after a sauna session.
Add Epsom salts for their magnesium content (which further supports nervous system regulation), and you’ve got a highly effective, deeply soothing ritual—no infrared required.
You don’t need fancy equipment—just warm water, intention, and 15–20 minutes to let your body soften.

Use the Sweet Dreams Bundle as a Nightly Ritual (and the science backed reasons why it works)
This isn’t just a self-care moment—it’s a multi-layered approach to calming your mind, supporting your nervous system, and helping your body shift naturally into sleep. Here’s how to make the most of it, and why each step is backed by both tradition and science:
🫖 Step 1: Sip the tea. Let the plant medicine work from the inside out.
Sweet Dreams MediciTea is a gentle, 100% organic blend designed to calm the nervous system and help you fall asleep more easily. Each ingredient is chosen for its clinically observed effects:
-
Chamomile: Acts as a mild sedative and anxiolytic (anti-anxiety); shown in studies to improve sleep quality and reduce sleep latency (the time it takes to fall asleep).
-
Valerian root: Boosts GABA levels in the brain, a neurotransmitter that slows brain activity and encourages deeper sleep.
-
Passionflower: Helps increase total sleep time and reduce nighttime wake-ups by calming the limbic system (your emotional brain).
-
Lemon Verbena: Traditionally used to calm the stomach and nervous system; adds to the overall relaxing synergy.
Together, these herbs reduce nervous tension, ease digestive discomfort, and gently signal to the body: it’s time to unwind.
🌿 Step 2: Apply the Restorative Rest Roll-On to feet, wrists, and neck.
Essential oils don’t just smell good—they directly impact the limbic system, the part of your brain that controls stress, emotions, and memory. They also absorb through the skin into your bloodstream, which is why placement matters:
-
Bottoms of the feet: The skin here is thick but highly absorbent, and applying oils here allows quick transdermal absorption without interference from sebaceous (oil) glands. It’s also packed with reflexology points tied to organs and body systems.
-
Wrists and neck: These are pulse points—areas where blood vessels are closer to the surface. Applying oils here allows for gentle inhalation of the aroma with every breath, enhancing both the aromatic and therapeutic effects.
Why this blend works:
-
Lavender, Roman Chamomile, and Clary Sage lower heart rate and blood pressure, calm muscle tension, and help your body shift into parasympathetic mode.
-
Cedarwood and Vetiver anchor the breath and help slow looping thoughts. Cedarwood is known to promote melatonin production.
-
Black Spruce supports adrenal health and mental clarity as you let go of the day. It also acts as spiritual protection.
-
Vitamin E, MCT, and Jojoba Oil ensure deep, skin-safe absorption while nourishing the skin barrier.
This is functional plant medicine—designed to move through your body and support it from multiple angles.
-
Step 3: Hit play on the 3-minute breathwork video. Let your body exhale.
Breath is your fastest way to shift state—literally.
Each roll-on in the Sweet Dreams line comes with a guided 3-minute breath ritual, designed to work with the formula and activate your parasympathetic nervous system. When paired with scent, breath helps reinforce the effects of the oils through:
-
Olfactory stimulation: Activates brain centers that regulate sleep, emotion, and memory.
-
Vagus nerve stimulation: Slow, rhythmic breathing tones the vagus nerve, which controls your rest-and-digest state.
-
CO₂ tolerance: Deep breathing helps regulate your carbon dioxide levels, which can impact anxiety and the ease of falling asleep.
Within minutes, your breath slows. Your muscles unclench. Your thoughts soften. And your nervous system gets the signal it’s been waiting for: you’re safe to rest now.
✨ Put it all together, and what you get is a complete sleep ritual—one that works from the inside, outside, and all the way down to your breath.
You don’t need pharmaceuticals or harsh sleep aids.
You need rhythm. You need ritual.
You need the right plants, in the right place, with the right intention.
