the after five gummy.
one gummy. after work. that's the whole ritual.
no powder, no tea to steep, no routine to build. you know how to eat a gummy.
- 5 actives, dosed openly
- ~30 minutes to the shift
- 30 nights per bottle
how it works.
two timelines at once.
most evening supplements do one thing: knock you down. this one does something tonight, and something else over the next few weeks.
the shift.
l-theanine · lemon balm · passion flower · valerian root
thirty minutes in, the edge softens. l-theanine takes the buzz out of your thinking, lemon balm and passion flower settle the body, valerian carries you toward sleep. it's the wind-down you were reaching for at 5pm — arriving on its own terms, and leaving you whole in the morning.
-
5:00 pm
you take it, still in work clothes.
thirty minutes before you want the day to end.
-
5:30
the loosening.
your shoulders drop before you notice. this is the part a drink also does.
-
the evening
you're still sharp.
this is where they split. you can drive, work out, hold a real conversation.
-
morning
nothing owed.
no fog, no shallow sleep, no starting the day a step behind.
you're just not braced anymore.
the build.
reishi mushroom · 200 mg
the four above work on tonight. reishi works on the baseline underneath them — how much there is to come down from in the first place.
-
week one
the nightly part is already working.
reishi is still loading. adaptogens act on your stress response over time, not on a single evening.
-
week two
the ritual runs itself.
five o'clock arrives and you're already reaching.
-
week three
the first easy evening.
less to transition out of, so the transition takes less.
-
week four
less to come down from.
the gummy is doing less work, because there's less to undo.
a ritual instead of a rescue.
what's actually in it.
four fast. one slow.
l-theanine.
25 mg
the amino acid in green tea, studied for raising alpha brain waves — settled and alert at the same time. it's why matcha calms you without slowing you down. this is the piece a drink can't do: the loosening arrives, but you stay sharp enough to cook, drive, hold a real conversation.
lemon balm.
25 mg
studied for working on the same calming side of your nervous system a drink hits, from a gentler angle. it's the one that takes the edge off the mental noise — the low hum still running after you've closed the laptop. same quieting, without the 3am wake-up.
passion flower.
25 mg
used in europe for restlessness for generations, working on the same pathway as the lemon balm. it sits alongside rather than stacking on top, which is the difference between settling and sedating. your body stops bracing — shoulders, jaw, chest — without feeling switched off.
valerian root.
25 mg
the oldest one here — in european pharmacopoeias for centuries, studied for shortening the wind-down to sleep. it's the piece that carries into the night. a drink gets you drowsy fast, then fragments what follows. this one doesn't trade tomorrow for tonight.
reishi extract.
200 mg
the four above work on tonight. reishi works on the baseline underneath them. an adaptogen acts on your stress response over time, so it does almost nothing on night one and most of its work by week four — less to come down from in the first place. a drink resets you nightly. this shifts what you're resetting from.
per gummy. thirty per bottle. no proprietary blend.
the honest comparison.
everything you love about winding down — none of the heaviness.
the wind-down isn't the problem. wanting something that marks the line between work and not-work is a good instinct. the trouble is that most of what's on offer trades tomorrow for tonight.
the gummy.
a drink.
some nights you'll still want the other thing, and that's fine. this isn't a replacement or a rule — it's a second option for the evenings when you want the settling without the cost.
no judgment. just a gentler option when you want one.
the long record.
the oldest answer to your problem.
the evening problem isn't new, and neither is what people reached for. these aren't novel compounds someone synthesized last year — they're the ingredients that stayed in use for centuries because they kept working.
reishi.
chinese medical texts.
it was scarce enough to be reserved for people who could afford it, and it was used for one thing consistently: steadiness under strain. that's the same category modern research calls an adaptogen. the word is new. the use is two millennia old, and it's why this formula has a slow half at all.
valerian.
european pharmacopoeias.
it sat in the official registers pharmacists actually dispensed from, across generations, for restlessness at the end of the day. it's the one already in your grandmother's tea — and she didn't need a trial to know it worked, because the evidence was that people kept asking for it.
lemon balm.
planted on purpose.
monks kept physic gardens and chose what went in them. lemon balm made the list, grown deliberately for exactly what you're after. people with long days, early mornings, and no way to put the day down. the problem is older than the workday you're having.
a drink is the recent answer. these are the ones that lasted.
they work with your system.
your nervous system has a calming side built in, meant to switch on when the day ends. these botanicals support that pathway instead of overriding it.
makes the decision for you.
it overrides the system. the day ends because something switched you off.
nudges the system that was already trying.
the pathway was there. it just needed something to meet it halfway.
which is why you stay yourself — settled, but still here.
your questions answered.
is this meant to replace my evening drink?
only if you'd like it to. it's for the evenings you want the calm without the heaviness — or simply a softer option to have on hand. no pressure, no judgment.
how long until i notice something?
the first night, you'll likely notice the settling within about half an hour. the reishi is slower — that one works on how your body handles stress over time, and most people describe the difference around week three or four.
both parts matter, but they arrive on different schedules.
will it make me feel out of it?
not at all. this is gentle, clear calm — you'll feel settled and at ease, never groggy or fuzzy. you'll still feel like you.
will it affect my sleep?
it should support it, not force it. because you're taking it hours before bed, what you're mostly getting is a nervous system that's had time to downshift before you lie down.
no grogginess in the morning — there's nothing here you have to sleep off.
is it gentle enough for every day?
yes — it's non-habit-forming, with no melatonin. if you're pregnant, nursing, or taking any medication, a quick word with your doctor is always a kind thing to do for yourself.
can i take it with medication?
check with your doctor first, especially if you take anything for sleep, anxiety, mood, or blood pressure. same goes if you're pregnant or nursing.
these are gentle ingredients, but your doctor knows your situation and we don't.
how does the subscription work?
it ships every 30 days at a lower price, and you can skip, pause, or cancel anytime from your account — no email, no phone call.
most people subscribe because the reishi side rewards consistency, but a one-time order is always there if you'd rather try it first.
what if it's not for me?
then it's on us. our 30-night promise means you can try it gently — and if it's not your ritual, we'll take care of you. keep the bottle.
