Our Story
Where Ancient Ritual Meets Modern Biochemistry
Manakāya was created from one truth: when we honor our body, our entire life begins to transform.
For our founder, Claire, this wasn’t just a belief; it was lived experience. Raised with a deeply holistic upbringing, she spent over a decade immersed in wellness, biohacking, and natural healing. In college, she studied nutrition, devouring everything she could about metabolism, hormones, sleep, and the nervous system. But even with her knowledge, something was missing:
High-quality rest.
No matter what she tried: supplements, routines, herbs, protocols...Claire couldn’t find a sleep solution that felt clean, effective, and complete. Every option required buying 3–4 different products. None offered the bioavailability, purity, or simplicity she craved. So she decided to create the product she had been searching for.
Not just for herself, but for her community.
For the people who feel deeply.
For the ones who live intentionally.
For the ones who want their wellness to feel like a ritual, not a chore.
What MANAKĀYA Means
Mana = life force, divine energy
Kāya = the body, the vessel
Together they mean: “The body filled with life force." Every product we create honors that philosophy supporting your body’s natural rhythms, restoring what stress depletes, and helping you wake up energized, clear, and deeply connected to yourself.
Why Sleep Comes First
Most people think sleep is the final step of a wellness routine. We believe it’s the foundation. Your hormones, metabolism, mood, immune system, recovery, and even your collagen production are all orchestrated by one thing: The quality of your sleep.
When sleep breaks down, everything else follows: inflammation, cravings, weight retention, anxiety, skin changes, and burnout.
Creating Sleep Restore™
To bring this vision to life, Claire partnered with top formulators, doctors, and scientists at their leading FDA-registered, GMP-certified facility in Colorado, USA to ensure uncompromising purity and safety.
The mission was clear: make one sleep formula that actually works and does the work of three or four separate supplements.
A formula that is:
✓ Minimalist
✓ Scientific
✓ Ritualistic
✓ Effective
✓ Absorbable
✓ Clean
So we built Sleep Restore™ using premium liposomal delivery, ensuring real bioavailability, not just label claims. We sourced the highest-quality glutathione available, backed by clinical data showing 22× higher absorption than standard glutathione supplements. We paired it with bioactive melatonin and GABA; each chosen for their ability to calm the nervous system, restore circadian rhythms, detoxify the body, and support deeper, longer-lasting sleep cycles. Because the way you sleep shapes the way you live:
Your metabolism.
Your hormones.
Your recovery.
Your skin.
Your mind.
Your energy.
Your emotional clarity.
Sleep isn’t the end of the day; it’s the beginning of all healing.
