Sleep Support Tools
Sleep-support tools I used during recovery (and still love)!
Of course, I still use multiples of these products now, but then, I really just picked one or two of the ones that I felt my body needed the most that particular night of recovery.
There is no heavy science or reason why I picked one or the other. They all kind of do different things so it just depended on what I felt my body needed the most.
Depending on how I felt, I’d take either ImmuPro or Unwind before bed. ImmuPro was for those nights I really needed solid rest. I didn’t take it every night since it has melatonin, but when my body was tired and my brain wouldn’t settle, this one always helped.
It’s also a great immune supporter, which is why it’s so popular. When it’s in stock, people tend to load up — and for good reason. It supports both a stronger immune system and a restful night’s sleep.
Key Natural Ingredients & Sourcing
ImmuPro is packed with naturally sourced ingredients that work together to support your immune and sleep systems:
- Wolfberry (Lycium barbarum) fruit polysaccharides — from the same NingXia wolfberries grown on Young Living’s farms in China. These are rich in antioxidants and immune-supporting compounds.
- Reishi, Maitake and Agaricus blazei mushrooms — adaptogenic mushrooms used for centuries to help balance immune response.
- Arabinogalactan — a prebiotic fiber from North American larch trees that supports healthy immune cells.
- Orange peel oil — 100% pure, therapeutic-grade essential oil cold-pressed from orange rinds to brighten mood and promote calm.
- Melatonin — a naturally occurring hormone that helps regulate the body’s sleep-wake cycle.
These are the ingredients that do the work — they’re naturally derived, not synthetic, and they support your body in ways it already knows how to function.
A quick note about supporting ingredients
Every supplement includes what I call supporting ingredients — things that help the formula hold together, stay shelf-stable or taste decent. They’re not the active nutrients your body uses for rest or recovery, but they make the product easier to use and more consistent.
In ImmuPro, those supporting ingredients include dextrose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, stevia leaf extract, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate and maltodextrin.
Here’s what they do:
- Dextrose and maltodextrin add a touch of sweetness and structure.
- Hydroxypropyl cellulose helps the chewable hold its shape.
- Stevia comes from the stevia plant — a natural, zero-calorie sweetener.
- Silicon dioxide prevents clumping (it’s basically purified sand).
- Magnesium stearate is a trace flow agent that keeps ingredients from sticking during production — not a magnesium supplement.
All of these are considered safe, widely used and necessary for stability. I just like calling them supporting ingredients because they’re not what your body is showing up for — they’re what make the product easy to take.
On nights I felt extra inflammation or just couldn’t get comfortable, ImmuPro was my go-to. It felt gentle but effective — not a “knockout,” just the kind of sleep that helped me actually recover.
Kidscents Unwind
Now, this one technically lives in the kids’ line, but I’ll be honest — I use it myself. It’s gentle, tastes like a watermelon pixie stick, and helps me quiet my mind without feeling groggy the next morning.
When my body was tired but my brain refused to clock out, Unwind was my go-to. It doesn’t contain melatonin, so it’s a lighter way to help your body relax naturally before bed.
Key natural ingredients and sourcing
What I love about Unwind is that every ingredient serves a real, natural purpose — nothing synthetic about it.
- L-Theanine — an amino acid naturally found in green tea leaves that promotes calm focus and relaxation without drowsiness.
- 5-HTP — extracted from the Griffonia simplicifolia seed (a plant native to West Africa) that helps your body create serotonin, the “feel-good” neurotransmitter.
- Magnesium — sourced from a marine mineral complex and magnesium citrate, reportedly harvested from the clean seawater off the coast of Ireland. Magnesium helps relax muscles, supports the nervous system and improves sleep quality.
- Lavender and Roman Chamomile essential oils — steam-distilled from flowers grown on Young Living’s partner farms in France and Bulgaria. Both are known for their soothing and calming effects on the body and mind.
All of these ingredients are natural and gently support your body’s ability to wind down, rather than forcing it to.
In ImmuPro, those supporting ingredients include dextrose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, stevia leaf extract, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate and maltodextrin.
Here’s what they do:
