Full Moon and Insomnia? Let me share my secret for a deep sleep
#3 Newsletter - Vanessa Bertinotti
Last night, the Moon was full. A Pink Moon, powerful and vibrant. A true spectacle for those who love nature and its rhythms.
But I often hear this: “Vanessa, I can’t sleep during the Full Moon. It’s like my brain just won’t switch off.”
And it’s true. The lunar phases deeply affect our nervous system. During the full moon, sleep quality decreases, the body becomes more reactive, and the mind more active. But there is a natural way to restore your rhythm: Reishi.
My Ritual
Every evening, before bed, especially when the Moon is strong, I take two half droppers of liquid Reishi. It’s a simple act, but it has a real impact on my relaxation and the depth of my sleep. Of course, I don’t use just any Reishi. I only choose KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms.
Discount Code: SALUTE
Why do I only choose KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms?
👉 They grow in the forests of Finland: pure air, clean soil, no compromises on quality.
👉 They use an ultrasonic extraction method that ensures high bioavailability, active compounds truly reach where they need to go.
👉 They’re transparent, scientific, and rigorous. And for me, that’s essential.
Medicinal mushrooms are powerful tools for health, but only if they’re pure, effective, and safe.
If you don’t know where your medicinal mushrooms come from, if they’re not grown in a pristine environment, and if the extraction process isn’t high-quality… I sincerely recommend avoiding them.
KÄÄPÄ’s Reishi is a true ally
👉 It promotes relaxation, regulates the parasympathetic nervous system, and prepares the body for a deep, restorative sleep.
👉 It’s one of those smart biohacks I often recommend to my community, because it truly makes a difference.
👉 And in an increasingly chaotic world, sleep quality is the foundation of everything: mental clarity, hormonal balance, vital energy.
Episode 152 – “The Science and Benefits of Medicinal Mushrooms”
I recently recorded episode no. 152 of my podcast “Salute and Biohacking”, titled “The Science and Benefits of Medicinal Mushrooms”, with Eric Puro, founder of KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms.
The episode is in English, but just a reminder: on YouTube, you can enable subtitles in any language—just go to the video settings and select your preferred automatic translation.
And for those of you who struggle with insomnia every night, regardless of the Moon...
Another transformative path I recommend is hypnosis. Even a single session can have a profound effect, as it works deeply on emotions that have become stuck in the body, releasing them and creating space for a natural, restorative state of calm. The body knows how to sleep. Hypnosis can help it remember.
I offer hypnosis sessions online or in person (only in italian). If you're interested, feel free to write me at this email: vanessa.bertinotti@gmail.com
If you’re looking for a hypnotherapist who works in other languages (French, English, or others) feel free to reach out to me. I’ll be happy to help you find someone I can recommend.
Stay connected, with an open mind and your feet on the ground.
