If Your Brain Throws A Rave At 2 A.M., Here’s How To Shut It Down

Ever bolt awake between 2-3 am with your mind racing and your heart doing drum solos? There’s a reason it happens at the same time, and no, you didn’t forget how to sleep. We dive into the real mechanics behind this annoying wake-up call so many women face in perimenopause and post-menopause: oestrogen swings that destabilise blood sugar, the steady drop in progesterone that removes a calming brake, a jumpier cortisol response, and a liver that’s busiest just as adrenaline naturally peaks. I share how these pieces create a predictable pattern—an overnight glucose dip that your brain flags as a threat, triggering adrenaline to rescue blood sugar and snapping you awake. From there, we get practical. You’ll learn why daytime stability equals nighttime stability, how to set protein targets that match this life stage, and why three regular meals often beat intermittent fasting for women over 40. We talk slow carbs at dinner to drip-feed energy overnight, caffeine cut-offs to protect your rhythm, and smart swaps for alcohol so party season doesn’t wreck your sleep. We also map out simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system: evening screen boundaries, breath work you can actually stick to, magnesium glycinate, journaling, and mini moments of mindfulness that nudge your body back into safety. Finally, we flag the subtle signs of insulin resistance and why addressing it is central to steady hormones and deep, unbroken sleep. If you’re tired of feeling wired, there’s a clear route back to calm: balance blood sugar, guide cortisol, support the liver, and personalise your nutrition. Ready to sleep through and wake clear?
