If you have decided to try Rest Well, Polite’s bedtime solution, your next step is to identify your dream dose of Rest Well. Think of Goldilocks seeking the dose that is “just right”. Review these simple steps below to guide your personal dose discovery.
Polite has crafted Rest Well products, including Rest Well Oil Drops and Rest Well Gummies, to support one of your greatest needs – your need for deep rest. Our goal is to help you find your personal dose of Rest Well that will help you drift off to dreamland again and again.
Let’s talk about cannabinoid dosing. Did you know that with cannabinoids, more isn't always better? There’s such a thing as too much. With cannabinoid and natural products, there can actually be diminishing returns if you take more than what you need.
When using cannabinoid or natural preparations, dosing is self-directed, meaning you determine the best amount to take based on your experience. Your goal is to find yourminimum effective dose— aka your "sweet spot" dose — which is the smallest amount of product that provides optimal therapeutic effect with minimal side effects. Sticking to this dose helps reduce tolerance buildup, lowers the risk of side effects, and makes your wellness routine more cost-effective.
Use the dosing schedule below to help pinpoint your personal sweet spot dose.
Days |
Serving Size |
Next Step |
Day 1-3 |
½ dropper (oil) |
Observe how you feel. If you achieve your desired results, stay at this dose or even try reducing slightly. If not, increase dose on Day 4. |
Day 4-6 |
1 dropper (oil) |
Monitor effects. If satisfied, stay at this dose or try reducing slightly. If not, increase dose on Day 7. |
Day 7+ |
1.5 - 2 droppers (oil) |
Continue gradual increases every few days as needed. If relief isn’t achieved beyond 2 droppers of oil or 3 gummies, consider restarting the dosing schedule and moving to a lower dose as it may be more effective. |
By following this structured approach, you'll find the dose that works best for you – without overdoing it or overspending.
Set the Mood. Create a calm and comfortable environment to fully observe your body’s response without distractions or added stress.
Start Low and Go Slow. Begin with a small dose and gradually increase as needed to find your optimal therapeutic effect without overwhelming your system.
More Is Not Always Better. Cannabinoids are biphasic, meaning low to moderate doses often provide the best symptom relief, while higher doses may reduce effectiveness or cause unwanted side effects.
Stick with It. Maintain consistency by establishing a daily regimen, adjusting dosage and frequency based on your needs. Most people take 1-3 servings throughout the day.
Monitor and Adjust. Track your experience by noting the formula, dosage, timing, and effects. You can use Polite’sDaily Cannabinoid Tracker to learn more about your dose and how it is supporting you.
Give it Time. Cannabinoids work cumulatively, so allow your body time to adjust before making changes.
Support Your Rest. Pair Rest Well with healthy sleep habits like morning light exposure, proper movement and nutrition, and mindfulness practices for enhanced effectiveness.
Be Patient.Some people need more time for cannabinoids to take full effect.
Optimize Your Routine. Support your sleep with supportive sleep behaviors, such as creating a calm sleeping environment, a quality evening routine, and limiting stimulating substances or activities before bed.
Consider an Alternative Product or Solution.Your body may not respond to cannabinoids or natural products like Rest Well. If the product is not working for you after trying the above, consider alternatives to Rest Well, such as other products or behavioral strategies for supporting your sleep.
