Welcome to another episode of the Pursue Your Spark podcast. Today, I would like to talk about how to get more sleep and energy, and why sleep is so important. Sleep is the number one contributor to having energy, but it’s not the only factor in feeling well-rested throughout the day.

You know, I’ve always been a good sleeper, even when I was little. My parents would joke that you could stick me anywhere and I’d sleep. Literally, we would go for a car ride, and once I sat in the back, I’d lie down and fall asleep. We’d go to grandma’s house; I’d snuggle in a chair and go to sleep, no problem. To this day, I can go to sleep quickly.

But what has really affected my sleep is menopause. I can totally relate to waking up at 2 AM and not being able to fall back asleep. Sometimes my body just says, “Done. Let’s get up and move.” That makes for a terrible morning and a tough day to go through. So, I can totally relate to that not sleeping business.
