Can’t sleep? Waking up tired? It might not be “just your hormones.”

New research shows that low vitamin D levels are linked to poor sleep quality, shorter duration, and more disrupted nights.

I explain the research, the symptoms, and when it might make sense to test in this week’s blog

Tired but can’t sleep? Waking up groggy no matter how early you go to bed? It might not just be perimenopause. This blog breaks down the research on one overlooked deficiency that could be affecting your sleep—and why testing before supplementing really matters.

💃 New research just confirmed what many of us already feel in our bones: dance is good for our mood, our hormones, and our health—especially during perimenopause and menopause.

Even better? It works whether you’re doing a barre class or just vibing to 90s R&B in your kitchen.

In my latest blog, I share:
✔️ What the research says
✔️ How often you need to dance for benefits
✔️ Why your midlife body might be craving movement

👉 Read it here: https://drelly.ca/blog/why-our-perimenopausal-body-might-be-craving-dance-and-not-just-for-fun

Then go press play and dance like your hormones depend on it.

There is so much noise on social media about women’s health—quick fixes, hormone hacks, restrictive diets, supplements, opinions.

It’s overwhelming.
And often... not helpful.

The Wild Collective is different.
It’s not a quick fix or a surface-level chat.
It’s a deep, guided experience I’ve brought to Niagara—where women get the space, structure, and support they’ve been missing.

🌀 A curriculum that helps you understand your body on a deeper level
🔍 A facilitator (me!) who cuts through the noise and brings the evidence
💬 Honest conversations with women navigating similar shifts
🗓️ Monthly 2-hour sessions designed to go deep, not rush

Working together 1:1 for that long each month would be cost prohibitive for many—but in this group setting, you still get my guidance in a way that feels personal and accessible.

✨ We start this week
✨ Only 2 spots left
✨ If you’ve been circling the decision… this is your moment

This is where things shift.
Where you stop pushing your needs aside, and start following through.
Where you feel seen, supported, and in integrity with yourself again.

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

Hot flashes and night sweats can be exhausting—but here’s something you might not know...

The strongest non-hormonal treatment for vasomotor symptoms (VMS) like hot flashes?
Hypnotherapy.

When I was studying for my Menopause Society Certification, I was surprised to learn how effective it was (and I’ve seen it work firsthand—for myself and my patients).

In my latest blog, I’m sharing:
✅ What makes hot flashes worse
✅ How hypnotherapy rewires your brain’s thermostat
✅ Why the placebo effect is actually a sign of your power

If you’re not ready—or not able—to go the hormone route, this is a great option to know about.
