DAY 2The "Lights Out" Mocktail

January 13, 2026

Blog image

Yesterday, we got our sleep drive up by tiring out our bodies with morning exercise. You worked hard, so tonight, we're supporting the other half of that cycle: Physical Recovery + Relaxation Before Bed.

Magnesium: Recover & Relax

Magnesium may play a supportive role in relaxation, and higher magnesium status is linked to better sleep quality in observational studies. Some clinical trials also suggest that magnesium supplements may improve sleep parameters.1

Want to try magnesium for yourself?

Magnesium isn't a magic fix, but for many people, it helps create the calm required for melatonin to rise naturally. The drink below is a soothing way to add it in. Sip it in a bath as you unwind!

*Check with your doctor before starting any new supplement, especially if you take medications or have a health condition.

ACTIVITY 2

Red Light for Relaxation

After drinking our mocktail, use LUMEBOX within 2 hours before bed. Why?

Relaxation

After yesterday's legs and back workout, it's natural to feel a little sore! This is where red light shines (literally!) for a full-body cue to calm the nervous system and ease muscle tension.

Sleep Quality

In one study (not using LUMEBOX) on patients with neck pain, using a 660 nm red light device on the neck twice a day improved sleep quality by 27% in just two weeks. Improvements continued throughout the full 4-week protocol.2

How to use LUMEBOX tonight:

Using LUMEBOX on back

• NIR mode • 12 minutes

Do You Take Melatonin
As a Supplement?

A lot of people do, but what most don't realize:
It isn't meant to "knock you out" like a sleeping tablet. It's a signal to your circadian clock to start relaxing. Melatonin works best when taken around the time your body naturally begins producing the hormone (2-3 hours before bedtime). 

TIP: Most people take melatonin too late. Some sleep experts recommend taking it about 12 hours before your desired wake-up time for the best effect.

Stress Is the Biggest
Blocker of Melatonin

In modern life, chronic stress is one of the biggest factors interfering with melatonin production.

Stress is not just an emotion. It's a biological signal that ramps up our cortisol which blocks melatonin. 

The good news: Many lifestyle strategies help reduce chronic stress. Tomorrow's activity is one tool we use to calm the system and reduce stress closer to bed.

Up next: Bedtime Yoga
