Sleep isn’t just rest; it’s hormonal therapy.

In my experience, nothing compares to the sleep struggles that come with menopause.

You find yourself wide awake at 2 a.m.

Your mind starts racing.

Your body feels restless.

By morning, exhaustion sets in.

But sleep does more than just affect how tired we feel.

During deep sleep, your body:

lowers cortisol,
restores hormones,
repairs tissue,
balances your appetite,
calms your nervous system,
and clears brain fog.

When your sleep is disrupted, everything feels more difficult the next day.

It’s not a sign of weakness; it’s just that your body is running on half-power.

Menopause has taught me something important:

When I treat sleep like medicine, everything in my life feels brighter.

I use soft lights,
take warm showers,
enjoy slow evenings,
and find small comforts.

We can’t force; instead, we invite it in.

The Rules Change after 40.

We reach the stage in our lives where we don’t need to shrint, we need to strengthen.

For years, we were taught to “burn calories” to stay healthy.

We were encouraged to walk more, do cardio, and keep moving, and most of us did and saw results.

But menopause changes the rules.

We lose muscle naturally after 40, and muscle is what keeps metabolism steady, bones strong, joints supported, and energy stable.

Cardio is excellent for the heart, but strength training is what transforms our health.

A few minutes a day can:

✨ boost metabolism
✨ support weight balance
✨ improve sleep
✨ reduce joint pain
✨ strengthen bones
✨ stabilise hormones
✨ improve posture + confidence
✨ support long-term mobility

Transitioning to menopause isn’t about getting smaller; it's about becoming stronger physically and mentally.

Fasting and skipping meals may lead to - Irritability- Anxiety- Energy Crashes - Shakiness & Weight Gain.

Nourishment works better than restriction.

Why We Don't Fast Our Way Through Menopause — We Fuel Our Way Through It

There was a time when fasting worked for me.
Skipping breakfast didn't feel hard until menopause arrived.

Then suddenly, skipping meals wasn't empowering; it made me anxious, flat, shaky, and more emotional.

Now I understand why:

Low estrogen makes us more sensitive to blood sugar drops.
When we go too long without eating, the body releases cortisol and adrenaline to keep us going.

But cortisol is already elevated in menopause, so symptoms feel more pronounced.

Symptoms you may feel are: anxiety, irritability, fatigue, cravings, and weight gain, all of which intensify.

Fasting isn't about the body failing; during menopause, it can do more harm than good by disrupting hormonal balance and increasing symptoms.

Your body needs proper nourishment, not deprivation, to support hormonal health and manage menopause symptoms effectively.
Regular meals.
Balanced protein.
Gentle carbs.
Kindness.

Menopause is a time to fuel yourself physically, emotionally, and hormonally.

Your body works better when it isn't running on empty.

Why Menopause Tests Relationships More Than We Expect

Menopause doesn’t just change us, it changes the way we relate to others, especially our partners and loved ones.

It feels like we have become even more sensitive than we ever were, and being aware of this hypersensitivity makes us less tolerant of everyday chaos.

For me, it was being more honest about my needs, something that was foreign to me.

It wasn’t that I stopped loving the people in my circle any less. I felt like I just couldn’t carry everyone’s emotions anymore.

That means the people around us aren’t always sure what’s happening.

This is where gentle, honest communication becomes our anchor.

In my own life, even simple routines like evening walks, warm showers, or a quiet cuppa have helped me ground myself, so I could respond instead of react.
