Why It Works Differently
Calm tonight. Deeper sleep over weeks.
The first night - You feel calmer
GABA helps your nervous system settle, so you're not lying there wired.*
Within a week - Falling asleep gets easier
Red dates, fu xiao mai, licorice root work on mental restlessness, so your mind stops racing at bedtime.*
Within two weeks - You sleep deeper through the night
Bupleurum and poria mushroom work on the root of disrupted sleep, supporting deeper, more restorative rest.*
Our ingredients

Red Date
Also known as jujube, calms the spirit and eases restlessness. The red date has been used for centuries in TCM to nourish the blood and settle the mind for deep, restorative sleep.*

Poria Mushroom
Clinical studies show longer total sleep time and fewer nighttime awakenings. Settles the mind by strengthening the spleen.*

Fu Xiao Mai
Also known as blighted wheat, it's traditionally used to quiet night sweats and restless sleep. Eases the kind of anxious wakefulness that keeps you staring at the ceiling.*

GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid)
GABA is the brain's primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, naturally regulating nervous system activity. Supplemental GABA works with this same calming pathway, helping quiet overactive neural signaling without inducing sedation.*

Bupleurum Root
Balances your body's stress response. Soothes the mind so the tension you carry all day doesn't follow you to bed.*

Cinnamon Twig
Supports healthy circulation and helps the body relax as evening sets in. Cinnamon Twig is a traditional TCM warming herb often used in calming formulas to ease the transition into sleep.*

Licorice Root
Harmonizes the other herbs in the formula while gently soothing the body. Licorice Root has long been used in TCM to smooth digestion and support a calmer overall state before bed.*
What I like about Relax + Sleep is that it helps you unwind at night, without next-day fatigue. Jujube, poria mushroom, and GABA work together to support the mind and nervous system, which is how we approach sleep in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Everything you need to know
Common questions about Relax + Sleep.
Melatonin is a hormone that overrides your brain's sleep signal. It works fast but creates dependency — your body makes less of its own over time. Our formula takes the opposite approach: calming overactive pathways (GABA), settling the spirit (jujube seed), and supporting deep rest (poria mushroom). No override, no dependency, no morning fog.
Many people notice a sense of calm the first night, as the formula begins to support the nervous system. Falling asleep may feel easier within the first few days. More meaningful changes like deeper, more consistent sleep and fewer nighttime wake-ups tend to build over 1–2 weeks of regular use.
Yes. That's how it's designed. Non-habit forming, no synthetic sedatives, no hormones. In TCM, these herbs have been taken nightly for centuries as part of health maintenance. Think of it like a nightly tea ritual that actually does something measurable.
Most sleep aids target one pathway, usually sedation. This formula addresses multiple root causes simultaneously: GABA for neural calm, jujube seed for emotional settling, poria for anxiety, bupleurum for stress response. If your sleep problems come from an overactive mind, accumulated stress, or hormonal shifts, this addresses those root patterns rather than masking symptoms.
Relax + Sleep tastes like a warm red date tea with a gentle hint of cinnamon. It’s naturally a little sweet, with no added sugar or artificial flavors. Mixed with hot milk, it becomes a comforting red date latte - an easy, calming way to wind down at night.
No known interactions with common supplements (magnesium, vitamin D, omega-3s, etc.). If you're on prescription medication, do check with your doctor first. We're always transparent about this.
Yes, it’s fully vegan and free from dairy, soy, and nuts. It does contain fu xiao mai (blighted wheat), which has naturally low levels of gluten, so it is not certified gluten-free. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it’s used to help calm the nervous system and support restful sleep. If you have celiac disease or a gluten sensitivity, it’s best to check with your healthcare provider before taking it.

Rooted in Tradition. Designed for Today.
Stephanie grew up on drinking her grandmother’s herbal tonics and soups whenever she was sick. It was part of everyday life. Years later, as a mother of two, she returned to these same herbs during pregnancy when conventional options fell short. They still worked.
Her path to NOOCI began long before that. In 2014, she founded a holistic wellness center focused on mental, physical, and emotional health, offering evidence based practices like tai chi and qi gong. With a background in culinary training, she has long believed that you are what you eat, and that food and herbs are daily medicine.
NOOCI, meaning new Qi (氣) or new energy, builds on this foundation. Formulated by doctors, Chinese medicine practitioners, and scientists. For those who want more from their wellness, and a more foundational way to feel better.
