If insomnia is stealing your rest, you’re not alone — and there is hope. In this episode, Dr. Justin Marchegiani shares powerful, science-backed sleep strategies to help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling refreshed — all without relying on sleep medications.

Discover the root causes of insomnia from a functional medicine perspective, including blood sugar imbalances, hormone fluctuations (especially during perimenopause and menopause), chronic stress, adrenal dysfunction, and nutrient deficiencies like magnesium and vitamin B6.

Dr. J explains how to naturally optimize melatonin, GABA, cortisol, and serotonin so your brain and body can finally get deep, restorative sleep. You’ll also learn how to reset your circadian rhythm, calm your nervous system, and build a bedtime routine that actually works.

What You’ll Learn: • Why your insomnia may be linked to hidden blood sugar imbalances • The connection between thyroid issues and poor sleep • How perimenopause and hormone shifts disrupt sleep cycles • The role of magnesium, vitamin B6, and melatonin in deep sleep • How to activate your parasympathetic nervous system naturally • Functional medicine strategies to balance cortisol and GABA • Why sleep medications can backfire — and what to do instead • Practical ways to reset your circadian rhythm and sleep better

References: Magnesium and Sleep Regulation: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34960095/ — Magnesium improves sleep efficiency and reduces insomnia symptoms. Cortisol Dysregulation and Insomnia: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17850299/ — Elevated evening cortisol is linked to difficulty falling asleep.
