The Red Light Report The Hidden Power of Weighted Blankets: Unlocking Sleep, Calm, and Longevity w/ Elizabeth Grojean
-
Key Quotes from Elizabeth Grojean: “The even pressure across the whole body signals to the nervous system that you’re safe. There’s a decrease in cortisol almost immediately, and then there’s an increase in serotonin, which naturally converts to melatonin.”“A weighted blanket is a one-time purchase that improves your sleep quality every single night. That has ongoing, compounding effects on your overall health.”
“We offset our carbon footprint from all production and operations—and then we double our offset. Because we all know we’ve done a bunch of harm to this planet, and the only way we’ll ever get anywhere is if we start to undo some of that.” -
