Wired and tired?
I often describe this as your Stress Bowl.
When the bowl becomes too full, your body can start signalling that it needs more space, support and recovery.
The good news? You don’t necessarily need to remove every source of stress from your life. Sometimes creating a little more space is enough to help your body begin regulating again.
I’ve written more about why you can feel wired and exhausted at the same time during perimenopause and menopause, and what you can start looking at if this sounds familiar - link in comments.
