This episode of the Surviving to Thriving podcast focuses on unlocking the secrets to natural, restful sleep. I explain how the nervous system, particularly the parasympathetic system, influences sleep cycles and identify common sleep disruptors like stress, hormonal imbalances (especially in perimenopause), blood sugar fluctuations, poor diet, and irregular sleep schedules. Listeners will gain valuable insights into natural sleep remedies, including diet (kiwi, sunflower seeds), supplements (melatonin, GABA, magnesium), and lifestyle changes (consistent bedtime routine, limiting blue light, relaxation techniques). The episode also highlights the importance of addressing chronic stress, trauma, and underlying health conditions for those still struggling with sleep.
