Episode 14: Understanding Your Circadian Rhythm + How To Get Better Sleep

Sleep can be profoundly impacted during perimenopause and it can be one of the first things we notice, even as early as late 30s and particularly early 40s. Whether it’s trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or both. And waking up feeling groggy and unrefreshed can become the norm (this is not OK!). In this episode, I discuss: What the circadian rhythm is and why it matters so much Why and how sleep changes in perimenopause  Why a good night’s sleep starts in the morning  How our evening habits might be holding us back from sleeping well How we need to train and nurture our body clock and nervous system throughout the day if we want successful sleep Simple ways and tips to start nurturing your body clock Additional simple tools for supporting good sleep  Links: Take my free perimenopause quiz: https://quiz.francescaliparoti.com/start-page  Explore my Midlife Thrive membership: https://francescaliparoti.com/midlife-thrive-membership/  Work with me 121: https://francescaliparoti.com/services/ Connect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perimenopause.with.francesca/  Support for the Empowered Perimenopause Podcast Your support in listening to these episodes means the absolute world to me and helps me make an impact with my work, which is why I’m here.
