The Surprising Connection Between Your Sleep Mindset and Stress Level | Rebecca Vigelius
Episode 63
Tuesday, 14 May, 2024
In today's episode, we dove deep into the interconnected issues of stress, burnout, and sleep, particularly focusing on midlife women like us. I had the pleasure of speaking with Rebecca Vigelius, a holistic sleep and stress coach, who shared invaluable insights and practical advice on managing these critical aspects of our health and well-being.We started by discussing how stress can often spiral into sleepless nights, leading to a vicious cycle where lack of sleep increases stress levels, further deteriorating our sleep quality. Rebecca emphasized the importance of understanding the difference between stress and chronic stress, highlighting how chronic stress can lead to significant health issues like cardiovascular problems, diabetes, and mental health struggles.A significant part of our conversation revolved around practical strategies to manage stress and improve sleep. Rebecca stressed (no pun intended!) the importance of a good "sleep mindset" and not letting stress about sleep contribute to the problem. She shared simple yet effective techniques such as mindful breathing and adjusting our routines to support better sleep hygiene, like avoiding late-night eating and reducing evening screen time.This episode is packed with actionable advice for anyone looking to manage stress better and improve their sleep, especially during the challenging midlife years. Don't forget to tune in for more episodes where we tackle the big questions and challenges of midlife with practical, empowering solutions.LINKS + MENTIONS:Socials:Website: https://www.rebeccavigelius.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/rebeccavigelius/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rvigelius/BEST LIFE Retreat: https://www.schoolofmidlife.com/retreat-waitlistYour Next Chapter Book Club: https://www.schoolofmidlife.com/book-discussion🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟RATE THIS PODCAST:https://ratethispodcast.com/schoolofmidlife📩 JOIN MY MAILING LISThttps://www.schoolofmidlife.com/the-weekly-best-life-list-sign-up👉 CONNECT WITH LAURIE:📩 Email Laurie On InstagramOn LinkedInWork with Laurie
