From waking at 3am and being unable to get back to sleep, to lying awake with a racing mind, insomnia is one of the most common and frustrating symptoms women experience during the menopausal transition. In this episode of Self Care Club - The Midlife Edition, we’re talking all things sleep, insomnia and menopause with Professor Guy Leschziner, Consultant Neurologist at Welbeck and Guy’s Hospital and St Thomas’ Hospital. We explore what’s really happening to our brains and bodies during menopause, the difference between poor sleep and clinical insomnia, and why you can spend eight hours in bed and still wake up feeling exhausted. We also get into brain fog, sleep trackers, caffeine, screens and blue light, snoring, HRT and the lifestyle changes that can genuinely make a difference. We discuss: The 2 biggest mistakes people make when trying to improve their insomnia Why we shouldn’t be mean to snoring husbands Why Sleep trackers can be harmful The importance of aking at the same time every day If you’re struggling with sleep in midlife, this is one you won’t want to miss.
