205A Light, Dark, and Your Hormone Switches

Your body runs on light. When your eyes see light, your brain thinks it’s daytime—cortisol rises, melatonin drops. When it’s dark, melatonin rises, cortisol falls. But in our modern world, bright screens and light bulbs at night confuse your body’s natural switches.

In this episode of Menopause Made Easy with Tanya, you’ll learn:

• Why cortisol is your “get up and go” hormone, and when it should be high vs. low

• Why melatonin is your “rest and repair” hormone, and how to protect it

• Practical ways to use morning sunlight, evening dim light, and better sleep environments to regulate your hormones

💡 This is your reminder: every cell in your body is doing hundreds of tasks per second, and light/dark cycles help keep everything running smoothly.
