What Really Happens During Perimenopause

Perimenopause can make everything feel more intense. In this episode of The Modern Yin Podcast, we explore the connection between perimenopause, hormones, and nervous system regulation — and why symptoms like anxiety, overwhelm, sleep disruption, and emotional sensitivity often increase during this stage of life. We talk about why high-functioning women are especially affected, what the body is really asking for during this transition, and how practices like Yin Yoga, breath work, and regulation help support a more sustainable way of living. Because perimenopause isn’t just hormonal. It’s neurological too. For support join my Patreon [https://patreon.com/solefulyin] today

Why Anxiety May Be Worse At Night

Why does anxiety often feel worse at night? In this episode of The Modern Yin Podcast, we explore the connection between anxiety, sleep, and nervous system regulation. We talk about why nighttime can amplify anxious feelings, how poor sleep increases nervous system sensitivity, and why what feels like anxiety is often a body asking for safety and rest. Because sometimes anxiety isn’t asking for answers. It’s asking for regulation.

Why Your Body Won’t Let You Sleep

You’re exhausted. But your body won’t let you sleep. In this episode of The Modern Yin Podcast, we explore why sleep isn’t just about being tired — it’s about whether your nervous system feels safe enough to let go. We talk about the “tired but wired” state, why you may wake between 2–3am, and how unprocessed stress and emotion can surface at night when the body finally slows down. Through the lens of nervous system regulation and Traditional Chinese Medicine, you’ll begin to understand what your body is actually asking for — and how to support it more gently. Because sleep isn’t something you force. It’s something you allow. This is Modern Yin. Where stillness does the real work.
