Better sleep in menopause isn’t about finding one magic supplement or forcing yourself into another impossible routine. In Part 3, we’re breaking down six practical strategies that address the bigger picture: adequate nutrition, blood sugar balance, caffeine and alcohol, movement, your sleep environment, and supplements when appropriate. It’s time to stop simply telling yourself you “should” sleep more and start understanding how to support your body toward better sleep.
