Stress & Sleep After 50: Why Your Brain Wakes You at 3am

Do you keep waking up at 3am after 50 — wide awake, thinking, unable to drift back to sleep? It may not be insomnia. In this video, we look at how stress affects sleep after 50, why cortisol can rise too early, and how subtle, background stress shows up in the middle of the night.
