Rest Revolution: Why Sleep Isn’t Enough for Women over 40 w/ Miranda Brooking

Описание: In this episode of the Wild and Wise Show, host Yvonne Winkler sits down with rest advocate Miranda Brooking for a conversation every woman over 40 needs to hear. After years of pushing through exhaustion, Miranda discovered that sleep alone wasn’t restoring her energy — because she was only tending to one type of rest.

Together, Yvonne and Miranda explore the seven types of rest our bodies and minds crave: physical, mental, emotional, sensory, creative, social, and spiritual. They unpack how these rest deficits quietly build into burnout and why so many women in midlife wake up tired, even after a full night’s sleep.

This is a grounded, practical discussion about reclaiming energy, learning to listen to the body, and breaking free from the belief that rest is lazy. You’ll walk away with simple, doable practices you can weave into your day, signs you may be in a rest deficit, and new ways of understanding what your body has been trying to tell you.

If you’ve been feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or caught in the cycle of doing more to feel “caught up,” this episode offers a gentler way forward — one rooted in clarity, compassion, and true restoration.
