The Real Reason You’re Not Sleeping & How to Fix It

If you’re waking up exhausted, wired at night, or feel like your sleep is suddenly broken—this session will help you understand why. In this down-to-earth conversation, Shea Morrison shares how modern life, hormonal shifts, and a dysregulated nervous system collide to wreak havoc on women’s sleep in perimenopause.

Forget the generic sleep hygiene tips. This session is about reclaiming rhythm, rethinking your environment, and building a supportive relationship with rest—without guilt, shame, or impossible routines.

Highlights:

  • Why women in perimenopause often need more sleep—but get less
  • How light exposure (and timing) can make or break your sleep quality
  • The real role of cortisol, melatonin, and magnesium
  • Why your morning routine matters more than your nighttime one
  • Gentle, supportive practices to help your body feel safe enough to rest

This space is built on science, connection, and radical respect. I believe your nervous system is sacred, pleasure is a birthright, rest is essential, and life is meant to be enjoyed. ADHD is not the root cause, they are symptoms of a dysregulated nervous system. You’re not broken. Your body is divinely intelligent and is doing exactly what it was designed to do. I believe in easy practices that create lasting change, including somatics, psychedelics, mindset shifts, nervous system repair, and a little helping of magic. There is an unseen force (actually there are more than one) that shapes our lives. Science and spirituality are different sides of understanding (The explained vs the unexplained). My goal is to help you remember who the F! you are. Everything is energy. All lives are important. Black lives matter. Queer lives matter. All bodies deserve care, dignity, and support. When one of us suffers, we all suffer. And last but not least:

The best gift you can give the world is to regulate your nervous system.
