The Hidden Reason You Can’t Sleep (And the Simple Evening Ritual That Fixes It)

Here’s what’s really happening when you can’t get to sleep: Your cortisol levels may be stuck in overdrive, sending your body a constant message that you’re in danger. While your ancestors dealt with acute stress (think: escaping predators), we’re drowning in chronic stress from work deadlines, family pressures, and the relentless pace of modern life.

The result? Your body thinks it’s constantly under attack, keeping you wired when you should be winding down.

When cortisol stays elevated at night, it doesn’t just steal your sleep. It creates a domino effect that impacts every area of your health:

Your skin ages faster: High cortisol breaks down collagen and accelerates cellular aging, leaving you with dull, tired-looking skin.

Your weight can creep up: Elevated cortisol triggers cravings for sugar and salt while storing fat around your midsection.

Your energy crashes: The stress-sleep cycle leaves you exhausted in the morning but wired at night.

Your mood suffers: Poor sleep affects decision-making, blood sugar control, and emotional regulation.

For women in perimenopause and menopause, it gets worse. Hormonal shifts during this transition can throw cortisol even further out of balance, amplifying insomnia, mood changes, and brain fog.

What if there was a way to tell your nervous system it’s safe to rest? To naturally lower cortisol and signal to your body that the day is done?
