My Story

I’m Michele (pronounced mee-KEH-leh), the person behind Restwell. I help people understand the lighting, wireless signals and electrical surroundings in the spaces where they sleep and spend time, using measurements to identify practical changes that fit everyday life.

​

My health journey started in 2014, when gut issues led me to explore the microbiome and the relationship between nutrition and health. As I learned more, I completely changed my diet and gradually started paying more attention to other aspects of my everyday environment.

​

Over time, I reduced my use of plastics and unnecessary chemicals, changed the materials I used for cooking and food storage, and moved towards simpler, more natural cleaning and personal care products.

​

In 2018, after experiencing persistent skin issues that doctors and dermatologists had been unable to resolve, I discovered the power of sunlight and how it is essential for optimal health. I started spending much more time outdoors — during lunch breaks, after work and at weekends — and my health improved considerably. This led me to explore natural light more deeply, along with circadian rhythms and the effects of artificial light on our biology.

​

My interest in electromagnetic fields came later, through a friend who was sensitive to her electrical and wireless environment. She found that reducing certain exposures helped her sleep better and improved her mental clarity. That experience made me curious about what was actually present in our homes and how it could be measured.

​

I began studying electromagnetic fields and measuring them in real living environments. What interested me most was being able to test a change immediately: move a device, unplug a charger or adjust the lighting, then measure again.

​

That became the idea behind Restwell. My approach has developed through years of reading, experimenting and measuring. I continue to follow research into light, circadian biology and electromagnetic fields, while keeping the assessment focused on changes that can be tested and used in everyday life.
