Your sleep rhythm doesn’t start at bedtime. ✨
✅ It starts in the morning.
✅ When you move your body earlier in the day — Pilates, strength training, spin, cardio, brisk walking — you ride your natural cortisol awakening response.
✅ Cortisol is meant to rise in the morning.
✅ That’s what gives you energy, focus, and mood stability.
But if you skip morning activation and stay in a low, sluggish state all day…
your stress hormones often spike at night instead.
And that’s when the wake-ups happen.
The racing thoughts.
The 3 a.m. frustration.
Intensity earlier.
Gentleness later.
In the evening, we shift into:
• Slow stretching
• Breathwork
• Gentle flow
• Meditation
• A walk after dinner
That’s how we trains the nervous system to down regulate at night.
If you’re in perimenopause and your sleep feels unpredictable, this rhythm matters more than ever.
I’m teaching this (and so much more) in my FREE online workshop:
