As I toss and turn through another night, the battle with menopausal sleep disturbances becomes personal, and it's a fight that I, Ashley, know all too well. Teaming up with Traci, who's lucked out in the sleep department, we tackle the beast that is sleeping disorders during the big M. A whopping 61% of us women find ourselves wide-eyed in the witching hours, and it's not just the hot flashes. From hormonal havoc to the tick-tock of aging, we get real about the night-time challenges and arm you with tactics to reclaim those precious ZZZs. Our episode isn't just talk; it's a survival guide stocked with environmental hacks, stress-busting strategies, and when to wave the white flag and see a doc. Plus, we put the Sleep Foundation's tools to the test, and let's just say, we've got some thoughts to share.
We're spilling the beans on everything that messes with our shut-eye, including my own love affair with late-night TV and Tracy’s sage advice for restless souls. The bedroom becomes a battleground for better sleep as we discuss the power of blackout curtains and the unexpected jolt from chocolate. Aromatherapy? Check. Mattress matters? Double-check. And for those who reach for a midnight snack or a caffeine kick—spoiler alert—we’re exposing our own snackable sins and soda slip-ups. And don't even get us started on blue light blues. Before reaching for sleep aids, we're diving into natural rhythms and discussing everything from biophasic sleep patterns to sleepy word games. So curl up with us as we get up close and personal with the ins and outs of catching those elusive winks.
