😴 Sleep Through the Change: How Women in Menopause Can Finally Rest Again
If you’re in your 40s or 50s and wondering why you’re suddenly wide awake at 3 a.m., drenched in sweat or lost in thought—you’re not alone. And no, you’re not broken.
Sleep changes during perimenopause and menopause are incredibly common. In fact, over 60% of women in midlife report new or worsening insomnia symptoms. These changes can leave you feeling foggy, frustrated, anxious, and exhausted—right when you need your strength the most.
How many hours of sleep does a woman need?
But there’s good news: CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia) is a safe, effective, and natural way to get your sleep back—and MySleepPlan is designed specifically to walk you through it, step by step.
💡 What’s Really Happening to Your Sleep?
As estrogen and progesterone decline, your body and brain start to shift:
- Hot flashes and night sweats wake you in the night
- Mood swings and anxiety ramp up mental chatter at bedtime
- Circadian rhythm changes make sleep timing unpredictable
- You may wake too early or find it hard to fall back asleep
This cocktail of symptoms can turn sleep into a nightly struggle—and traditional sleep advice just doesn’t cut it. That’s where CBT-I comes in.
🧠 What Is CBT-I?
CBT-I is the gold-standard treatment for chronic insomnia, recommended by sleep doctors and backed by decades of research. It helps you change the thoughts, behaviors, and rhythms that keep you stuck in the cycle of bad sleep.
But unlike pills, CBT-I doesn’t just mask symptoms—it rebuilds your sleep system from the inside out.
