Ep 59 - Alcohol, Sleep, and Cortisol Truth
from Soulful and Sober | Alcohol Free Living for Midlife Women Hosted by Chrissy Janiga | Intuitive Alcohol Free Coach
You might think a glass of wine helps you relax at night… but what if it is actually the reason you feel exhausted, wired, and anxious the next day? In this episode, I walk you through what is really happening in your body when it comes to alcohol, sleep, and cortisol. We talk about how alcohol raises your stress hormone, disrupts your sleep cycle, and creates a pattern where you feel worse, crave more, and stay stuck in the loop. I also dive into why poor sleep affects your hunger hormones, why you feel hungrier and more out of control the next day, and how your nervous system plays a role in reaching for alcohol or food in the first place. This is not about judgment. It is about awareness. Because when you understand what is going on beneath the surface, you can finally start to feel better and make choices that actually support your body and your life. If you have ever wondered why you are doing everything right but still do not feel good, this episode will connect the dots.
