About Rest & Rise

You know something's off with your sleep. You're just not sure what to do about it. That's why we're here.

Rest & Rise is a small, independent site for women over 40 who sleep badly or wake up tired. We read what doctors and research say about the most common sleep problems after 40, and turn it into simple habits you can start tonight.

When we find a product worth your time, we name one per problem and tell you what we know about it, good and bad. When we don't, we say so and stick to the habits.

What we're not

We're not doctors, and nothing on this site is medical advice. Your doctor knows your health history, so their advice comes first.

The doctors and organizations we quote don't endorse Rest & Rise or any product. We link to what they said so you can check it.

Start with what wakes you up

• I can't stop thinking about everything
• I wake up at 3am and can't fall back asleep
• I keep waking up to pee
• I wake up way too hot
• My neck or shoulders hurt
• I sleep, but I'm exhausted all day
