Get Moving in the Morning!!!!

I got my daily health emails this morning and saw this one and thought I'd share with everyone!!! I need just as much motivation to get up earlier as the next person but I also don't get the sleep I should be getting! It's worth giving it a try!!!

Get Moving in the Morning

You know that exercise is good for you, but did you know it can help you sleep better during and after menopause? There's one caveat: You may need to work out early in the day to improve your snooze at night.
In the aptly titled medical journal Sleep, researchers reported that postmenopausal women who exercised moderately for a half-hour each morning had less trouble falling asleep than their nonexercising peers. However, those who chose to sweat it out in the evening did not experience the same effect.

If you're like many women who get far less sleep than they need, a brisk morning walk may be an easy way to improve your chances of catching a few z's later on. Recruit a friend to join you, or listen to your favorite music or a book on tape to make the process fun and easier to stick with. Prepare your workout gear the night before so that when your alarm goes off in the a.m., you can throw on your sneakers — your mood, memory, and libido will thank you for it! - Dr. Berman
