The quantitative research dimension is a randomized single-blind pretest-posttest experimental model with a control group. The qualitative research dimension is the descriptive phenomenological design. Method: The research will be carried out at Ömürevleri, Atakum, Mimar Sinan, Çobanlı and Yenimahalle Family Health Centers located in different regions of the Atakum District of Samsun.

The postmenopausal women who apply to the institutions where the research will be conducted and meet the inclusion criteria constitute the population of the research. When the sample size calculated with the G.Power program was taken as Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score mean and standard deviation value as 6.57±1.23, with 5% significance level, 80% test power, 0.700 effect size, there were at least 68 groups, 34 for the experimental group and 34 for the control group. identified as a person. Considering the sample loss in the experimental and control groups, with 10% more sampling, a total of 76 women will be included in the sample, with 38 women in each group. n the study, the data will be collected with the Personal Information Form, the Menopause Symptoms Assessment Scale, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Story Theory Based Semi-Structured Interview Form (for qualitative research) developed by the researchers in line with the literature.
