eBook See the Whole Person: Make Sense of Your Sleep

Description

A Practical Companion Guide to Better Sleep After 40

Better sleep starts with understanding what may be getting in the way.

Sleep is influenced by much more than what happens at bedtime. Light exposure, daily rhythms, stress, hormones, nutrition, movement, your sleep environment and wider health can all affect how well you sleep and how restored you feel the next day.

See the Whole Person: Make Sense of Your Sleep is a practical, evidence-informed guide designed to help you look beyond isolated sleep tips and understand your sleep from a wholistic, 24-hour perspective.

Rather than giving you another long list of things you should be doing, the Guide helps you connect the dots, identify your own sleep patterns and decide where it makes sense to begin.

Inside the Guide

You’ll explore:

• What healthy sleep looks like and what your current sleep pattern may be telling you.
• Circadian rhythm foundations, including light, darkness, timing and the signals that regulate your sleep-wake cycle.
• Morning, daytime, evening and night-time habits that help build healthy sleep across the whole 24-hour day.
• Nutrition for sleep, including balanced meals, meal timing, caffeine, alcohol and hydration.
• Sleep-supportive foods and nutrients, with practical evidence-informed guidance.
• Herbal medicines traditionally used to support sleep and stress, including important considerations around individual suitability.
• Melatonin, its role in circadian biology and when supplementation may or may not be appropriate.
• Stress, nervous-system activation and the cortisol awakening response.
• Common patterns such as difficulty falling asleep, waking during the night, early waking and restless legs.
• When persistent sleep problems may require further investigation rather than another sleep remedy.

More Than Information

Throughout the Guide you’ll find practical check-ins, reflection questions, Practitioner Insights, Clinical Pearls and simple tools to help turn information into action.

You’ll also work through a 7-Day Sleep Foundations Reset and bring what you’ve learned together into your own practical sleep plan.

The aim isn’t perfect sleep or a perfect routine.

It is to help you see more clearly what may be influencing your sleep, strengthen the foundations that matter most and make changes you can realistically sustain.
