Why do so many women struggle with sleep in midlife—and what does body temperature have to do with it?
In this eye-opening conversation, we're joined by Nicole Moyen, Director of Clinical Research at Eight Sleep, to explore the science of thermoregulation and sleep optimization. Nicole shows us the data on temperature and its powerful impact on sleep quality—especially for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Nicole breaks down the fascinating relationship between core body temperature and sleep cycles, explains why traditional sleep solutions often fail midlife women, and introduces Eight Sleep's newest game-changing feature: the Hot Flash mode—a smart, dynamic temperature response system designed specifically to help women stay cool, comfortable, and asleep.
