Hello my name is Dr. Susan Jewell and on behalf of expert village I am going to talk to you about ways to live with menopause. Now in this clip we're going to talk about insomnia, which is one of the most common symptoms that women complain of when they're going into menopausal, stage. Now, the ways to deal with insomnia, insomnia means that you find it very difficult to sleep. So how can we deal with that particular symptom. Well there are several ways you can do this. First thing if you go to sleep you can always take a nice hot drink of milk, you know, the standard way, old fashioned way a hot milk. Take a warm bath before you going, go to bed cause it just relaxes you and it makes you feel very distressed, de-stressed and also other technique is meditation is good because meditation is a way to relax your brain. It basically helps you calms your brain and center. So that also is good. Other relaxation techniques would be good. Find moments, quiet moments with relaxing music is also a way to help you reduce the stress and help you maybe go to sleep. So, also avoid drinking coffee or any beverages that has caffeine content in it because that will keep you up all night. And if possible try the last option is sleeping medications, over the counter sleeping tablets is something you should try not to take but if really really find it difficult to sleep then once in a while is good but I really don't recommend this as an option to try to deal and combat for insomnia.
