Episode 231- The Sleep Tool Every Stressed Woman Needs: Cooling Weighted Blankets with Elizabeth Grojean

Episode Summary:
If you're navigating midlife, battling stress, and struggling with sleep, this episode is for you. Shana welcomes Elizabeth Grosjean, founder of Baloo Living, to explore how cooling weighted blankets can naturally support nervous system regulation and sleep quality—without medications or synthetic materials.

Learn how deep pressure stimulation improves HRV, calms cortisol, and why the right kind of blanket can make all the difference—especially for hot sleepers and hormonally sensitive women.

Elizabeth also shares what makes her blankets different (hello, breathable cotton and glass microbeads!) and how to choose the right weight for your body.

Key Topics Covered:

  • How weighted blankets activate the parasympathetic nervous system

  • The impact on sleep, cortisol, and heart rate variability (HRV)

  • Choosing the right weight for your body

  • Why most blankets overheat—and how Baloo's solves this

  • Natural materials vs. synthetics: what to look for

  • Why this tool is especially powerful for women 40+
