THE IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP FOR WOMEN

Very few things can beat the healing power (and downright deliciousness) of a good night’s sleep. So why is sleep important for women?

Restful, deep sleep is so vital for keeping us and our hormones in balance. But biological conditions unique to us, like pregnancy, menstrual cycles, and menopause all impact our ability to sleep. Our hormone levels, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors all come into play.

While we typically get more sleep overall than men, researchers have found that women actually experience lower-quality sleep. Between our different social roles and responsibilities, life can present us with special obstacles that may disrupt our right to rest.

The Endocannabinoid System and Sleep

Heard of the endocannabinoid system? This is the biological system CBD interacts with, and it’s responsible for regulating everyday physiological functions including sleep.

The primary homeostatic regulator of our biology, it plays a critical role in the sleep-wake cycle as well as other circadian processes. 

So the way we fall asleep, stay asleep, wake up, and remain awake are all regulated by our endocannabinoid system and circadian rhythms.
