How to Reset Your Sleep Cycle Naturally

The Connection Between Sleep, Hormones, and Weight Loss

Struggling with poor sleep? Your hormones may be to blame. In a recent interview with ABC4 Utah, Dawn Cutillo, founder of BeBalanced and author of The Hormone Shift, explains how imbalanced cortisol and insulin levels can disrupt your sleep, impact weight gain, and even accelerate aging. By naturally balancing these hormones, you can improve sleep quality, enhance metabolism, and support overall well-being.

 

Why Sleep is Essential for Hormonal Balance

Sleep is when the body repairs, rejuvenates, and restores hormonal balance. Poor sleep can:

  • Lower immunity, making you more susceptible to illness.
  • It causes skin issues like dark circles and premature aging.
  • Affects memory and focus, leading to brain fog.
  • Disrupt hormone levels, increasing weight gain and stress.

 

The Two Key Hormones Affecting Sleep

1. Cortisol: The Stress Hormone

  • Should be low at night to allow for deep sleep.
  • Chronic stress causes high evening cortisol, leading to restlessness and frequent wake-ups.

2. Insulin: The Blood Sugar Regulator

  • Should decrease at night, but unstable blood sugar from late-night snacking or poor diet can cause spikes, leading to disrupted sleep.
