One common complaint we hear from women is that their sleep SUCKS especially once they hit perimenopause and the years that follow.
And everyone “knows” that they SHOULD try to get better sleep.
But WHY?
And why does this matter in menopause?
Well - it actually REALLY affects your hormones, chronic disease risk (like diabetes and heart disease) metabolism, energy, ability to put on muscle, cravings and YOUR ABILITY TO LOSE WEIGHT.
So today Coach Hannah and I covered everything you need to know about circadian rhythm, sleep, how it affects your body, and most importantly how to get better quality sleep to accelerate weight loss (and no it isn’t just “go to sleep earlier”)
To download our circadian rhythm rest guide for improving energy and accelerating menopause weight loss go here: https://www.vitalityoet.com/circadianrhythm-menopause

Last episode I went over all the reasons you could experience sudden weight gain in perimenopause (and onwards) including various hormonal imbalances.
I then touched on how to improve/combat all those issues so you can lose weight and there was one thing that ALL of them had in common - improving cortisol levels!
So today I did a deep dive on cortisol, how it affects ALL areas of your body (including hormonal issues) and what you can do to start improving levels today.
I touched on how DUTCH testing gave me much different results than those of blood work which you can learn more about here:
