As we age, our sleep patterns naturally evolve. These changes, often subtle at first, can profoundly impact your daily energy, mood, and overall health. Prime Wellness leverages cutting-edge research to explain these shifts and empower you with knowledge.
After age 35, many adults experience:
- **Decreased Deep Sleep:** The most restorative stage of sleep often diminishes, leaving you feeling less refreshed.
- **Increased Wake Periods:** More frequent awakenings throughout the night disrupt continuous rest cycles.
- **Hormonal Fluctuations:** For women, perimenopause can trigger hot flashes and night sweats. For men, subtle testosterone decline impacts sleep architecture. Cortisol and melatonin levels also shift, altering your natural sleep-wake cycle.
- **Lifestyle Stressors:** Career demands, family responsibilities, and pervasive screen time contribute to increased mental arousal, making it harder to unwind.
Our research indicates that adults in Portland often face unique sleep challenges, including seasonal affective disorder exacerbated by shorter winter days and navigating a vibrant urban environment.
