If you’ve ever found yourself wide awake at 3am with a racing mind or drenched from a night sweat, you’re not alone. Up to half of women in perimenopause and menopause experience disrupted sleep – and it can affect everything from your mood and memory to your relationships and quality of life.
In this episode of Thriving in Menopause, we talk to Dr Giselle Withers, a clinical psychologist and founder of A Mindful Way. Giselle specialises in helping people reclaim restful nights through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) and mindfulness – both proven, evidence-based treatments that work without relying on medication.
She explains why hormonal shifts, stress and “busy-brain syndrome” create the perfect storm for poor sleep, and how CBT-I – particularly when combined with mindfulness practices – can retrain your mind and body to sleep soundly again.
