Why we stand behind it

Find Your Calm, Sleep Deeply, Wake Restored. Co-Created by Dr. Mary Claire Haver with Sleep Physician Andrea Matsumura, MD.

During the aging process, shifting hormones can affect mood, stress, and sleep. The ‘Pause Nutrition Sleep was designed to gently support the body’s natural rhythms so you can feel rested and restored.*

Poor sleep has a ripple effect on productivity, mood, and overall well-being — especially during the midlife journey. The ‘Pause Nutrition® Sleep positions itself as a smart daily investment in health, offering premium ingredients at a fraction of the cost of disrupted sleep (lost time, reduced energy, stress).

○ Generic sleep aids → inexpensive, but often just melatonin (single-action, short-lived).
○ Luxury formulas → can cost 2–3x more, but not all use branded/clinically studied active ingredients.
○ Sleep → strikes the balance: premium, research-backed, accessible price point for everyday use.
○ Backed by branded, research-supported ingredients manufactured under strict GMP standards, ensuring purity, potency, and consistent performance.

Key ingredients

At The ’Pause Nutrition®, we know that restful sleep is essential during the peri/menopause journey. That’s why the Sleep formula combines three premium, research-backed ingredients that work in harmony:

AlphaWave® L-theanine (200 mg): An amino acid from green tea, clinically studied to promote calm and relaxation — easing the transition into sleep. Supports relaxation without drowsiness. Shown to promote calm brain wave activity and reduce stress perception.*

Albion® Magnesium (150 mg): Provides well-absorbed chelated magnesium to support muscle relaxation, calm mood. The TRAACS® chelation system enhances bioavailability and digestive tolerance.*

MicroActive® Melatonin (3 mg): A sustained-release form that mimics the body’s natural rhythm — helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

Together, they provide a multi-layered approach to sleep support: calming the mind, relaxing the body, and guiding you into deeper, more restorative rest.*

What is an undertone?

An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:

Pink/Cool

I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.

Neutral

I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.

Yellow/Warm

I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage

Adults take 2 capsules 1-2 hours before bedtime, at roughly the same time each night.

Pro-tip

New to melatonin or sensitive? Start with ½ serving for 3–4 nights, then increase to 1 serving as needed. If you experience next-day grogginess, consider taking it earlier or reducing the serving to ½. Do not exceed suggested use.

Sore lower extremity muscles

"I loved how well i slept but after a few months my leg muscles started to get sore/ache. They felt like dragging around lead pipes. I Stopped taking this and the pain went away in 2 days. Im so sad because i slept so well only taking one cspsule!!! Everyone is different- hope it works for you."

Dee (3/5)

Works so well!

"I absolutely love the new Sleep pills. I was using a THC/CBD Gummie that was helping me sleep for a while (a few years) until I started waking in the night - all night. I wanted to use something more natural and get off the possible effects of THC. This has been AMAZING! I love how it makes me calm and relaxed ahead of falling asleep. I'm starting to remember my dreams again - I couldn't remember anything before with the gummies. I'm very happy these were developed and I can see using these for the long term."

Stephani O. (5/5)

Give this a try!

"I've been taking Pause Sleep for about a month and a half now. It took a few weeks before I began to notice a difference in my sleep. I took one pill the first week and then started 2 pills a night after that. I'm a 55 year old woman with hormone issues (I'm on an estrogen patch and take one progesterone pill each night and also have hypothyroidism). I've tried lots of things to help me sleep and I feel like Pause Sleep has worked the best for me!"

Kristin S. (5/5)

Pause Sleep

"This product has definitely improved my sleep quality. I fall asleep quicker than before I started taking this product and it's a very restful sleep. After 4 hours I still wake up to go to bathroom; that hasn't changed but I do fall asleep much faster than before. Very satisfied with this product."

Debra R. (5/5)

Great for both of us!

"This product has been a win win! On the first order I got one for my husband as well. It is working great for both of us! I am on HRT w/progesterone, but this has given me a little extra tweak for sleep I needed! We just ordered our second bottles! Thank you Dr. Haver, and the sleep doc you worked with!"

Lisa B. (5/5)

It helped!

"My goodness, I have tried so many methods, but I have finally been able to sleep since taking this. Full disclosure: some nights it does not work, but I have no idea why. But most nights, I am able to get a really good night's sleep, and even if I wake up for a moment, I am able to go back to sleep quickly instead of falling into an endless thought spiral."

Laura D. (5/5)

After 10 years I am FINALLY sleeping through the night!

"Thanks to Dr Haver and Progesterone, I can now fall asleep (after 10+ years of serious insomnia). However, I was still waking up 5-6 times during the night. With the addition of Pause Sleep to my nightly meds, I am staying asleep and even dreaming! PRAISES! I am SO grateful and I'm telling all my girlfriends about this miracle! THANK YOU!!"

Pam W. (5/5)

Helps me sleep through the night!

"I'm currently on sequential (cyclical) HRT which makes sleep challenging on my progesterone 'off' weeks. I've used melatonin before, and it helps me fall asleep, but I still wake up 2-3am. The first 4-5 days of using this I did not notice improvement over just melatonin, but I've been sleeping through the whole night for over a week now! I would definitely give it a try if you struggle to stay asleep. I tend to be on lower dosages for all meds/supplements so I have kept with the starter half dose and am very happy with my quality of sleep."

Candice (5/5)

Love it!

"I've tried 400mg magnesium glycinate, ashwaghanda, melatonin, nightly sleep beverages and on HRT. Stopped my hormones and supplements for a surgery and tried this. It has worked wonders and usually I get used to things with melatonin or wake up in the middle of the night. I'm only taking one pill currently, but will order the subscription service now vs my one-time order. Thank you!!!"

Stephanie R. (5/5)

Gamechanger

"Not only does this supplement help me sleep, it also has helped my libido. I am 11 years into menopause at 57 years of age with no HRT and use supplements when I know they have some benefit and these definitely do!"
