8 SLEEP FOR A GREAT NIGHT'S SLEEP

The older I get, the more I learn that one of the most vital elements of a happy and healthy lifestyle is getting a good night's sleep. And, sometimes, that’s no easy feat!

 Since October is World Menopause Month, it is important to address some conditions associated with menopause that impact sleep. I’ve personally experienced endless tossing and turning, hot flashes and uncomfortable night sweats. The sleepless nights are exhausting, and if you’ve hit this stage in your life, you'll understand completely!

Thankfully, I've discovered Eight Sleep. Clinically proven to improve your quality of sleep, the Eight Sleep Pod 3 mattress and Pod 3 cover combine research and cutting-edge technology. I am a big fan of bio-hacking, so I was excited to put the Pod cover to the test. The unique features include a customized temperature system that’s super easy to use. Ranging from 55 to 110 degrees, the Pod adjusts the temperature throughout the night based on my specific heating and cooling needs. It can be adjusted through the app right from your phone – now, how convenient is that! If you’re not solo in your bed, and your temperature needs are different than your partner's, this is a great problem-solver since each side adjusts independently.

The App is so easy to use!

Personalize your settings.

Your sleep patterns are tracked through built-in sensors and then viewed through the app. It even has an alarm setting that gently wakes you up. Personally, I’m really enjoying this setting! It also detects when I fall asleep and monitors my heart rate and heart rate variability. In other words, it’s able to collect all of the necessary insights so you get the best quality sleep. The visual data is so helpful, and it’s all right there on your phone!

Use Code JANET and get $150 off the Pod

Since I began using this a couple of weeks ago, I have seen an improvement. I started with a sleep score of 63, and it has increased to 83. That is encouraging data for me! I’ll keep you posted as I continue to make tweaks based on the feedback I get from the app. I can definitely tell a difference when I wake up in the morning feeling more revitalized and functioning with clarity. So, if you value your sleep like I do, this is definitely worth the investment!

Finding Eight Sleep has definitely been a life hack for me because great sleep leads to better health and longevity! I’m now “in bed” with technology & Eight Sleep makes a great partner!  

 Use my code JANET and get $150 off the Pod or $100 off the Pod Cover, so you can start experiencing this line of innovative products. Sweet dreams!

Unlock Your Metabolic Health With Levels

Live On Instagram - Wednesday, August 3rd, 8 am pst with Lauren Kelly Chew, MD

If you're not familiar with Levels - this CGM (continuous glucose monitor) provides real-time feedback on how diet and lifestyle choices impact your metabolism. Delivered to your door, you gain insight through personalized data available on an app and a detailed report that's delivered to your inbox. A few months back, both my husband and I decided to give Levels a try, we are not diabetic or pre-diabetic, but we enjoy bio-hacking ourselves and learning all about data you won’t receive from your regular physician. What if you could drastically reduce your risk of most diseases that kill Americans? How about lowering any heart disease, seeing what happens in your sleep, and reducing stress by keeping blood sugar at a stable range? When you wear the Levels CGM, you are able to track this data, and I find that to be incredibly encouraging and accurate. Personally, I found that wearing my CGM kept me accountable, and I really wanted to understand my body - after all, no two people are the same, and you can literally learn how to take charge of your health… who knows, sometimes, the smallest change can make a huge difference.

I wanted to share this information with you, so I’m thrilled to be live on Instagram at Janetgunngratefulgardenia Wednesday, August 3rd, at 8 am pst. With Lauren Kelly-Chew, MD, head of Clinical Product at Levels. If you are not on Instagram, please head to their website to sign up for their newsletter and learn more. You never know what you'll learn for yourself or someone you know that could be a game-changer for the better. It really made me re-think the mechanics of the body. I never really knew my body until I was pregnant, and then came menopause… another huge awakening to understanding hormones and the crazy changes that take place. Now with Levels, there is visual data for a greater understanding of foods, diet, sleep, and exercise. The more you know, the more you’ll thrive; that’s just a fact. What’s not to love when it comes to learning about what makes this miraculous machine of ours tick?
