Manage episode 366726381 series 3480790
You want to have the energy to deal with anything that might come up but, being a busy bee with multiple responsibilities and pressure to perform at your best, this equation can be tricky.
What often gets neglected for many ambitious women leaders, is sleep and food.
Without enough sleep, no energy, and without proper food, your sleep will suffer.
So, today, I want to highlight one key strategy that can transform your sleep experience: to stabilize your blood sugar during the day.
When your blood sugar goes on a roller coaster throughout the day, it actually creates a stress response. When the blood sugar drops, your body tries to bring it up. It pumps out adrenaline & cortisol, the “fight or flight” hormones that, among other things, tells your liver to make more glucose (blood sugar).
Adrenaline also makes your heart race and it can make you feel cranky, stressed, and anxious and you can’t think properly.
This episode will cover how you can eat to optimize blood sugar levels, and therefore, feel better during the day and improve your sleep at night.
