Insomnia, menopause sleep problems and nighttime anxiety
In Albuquerque, rest replaces performance, and wakefulness becomes information rather than proof that tomorrow is already lost. A hot wake-up becomes an argument with sleep, a sleeping partner turns one bad night into a ten-year forecast, and detailed tracking becomes surveillance — The Menopause Brain, Breath, Sleep Foundation and Mayo Clinic keep biology, stress and patterns in view.
