Episode 17: The secret to getting a good night's sleep

If you can't sleep at night, then you're not alone. While sleep is so essential for our health, it can also be so elusive. It's often one of the first signs and symptoms of peri menopause – quickly followed by exhaustion and fatigue, and can last well beyond menopause (really…did it ever come back after kids??!!). Here we look at why you're struggling to get a decent night's sleep and what you can do about it.  Sleep is one of the fundamental building blocks towards health. Poor sleep has clinically been shown to increase the risk of developing; Weight gain Blood pressure and cardiovascular disease Poor work performance Fatigue Hormonal imbalances Accelerated ageing Diabetes Mood swings, anxiety and depression. Oh the joys! While sleeping tablets and even antidepressants are commonly prescribed for women struggling to sleep, it might help with short term relief…but to really make a lasting change, we need to get to the underlying causes of why we are waking up in the first place. Otherwise it's going to be a constant struggle!
