Surviving Daylight Savings: A Functional Approach
We are on a mission to make wellness smarter, not harder.
In this timely episode, Dr. Galina and Beata dive into what really happens to your body and mind when daylight savings ends and darkness takes over your afternoons. If you’ve been feeling tired, moody, bloated, unmotivated, or emotionally fragile — you’re not broken, and you’re not failing. Early sunsets shift your circadian rhythm, hormones, digestive function, immune system, and stress response in very real, biological ways.
Together, they break down how changes in melatonin, serotonin, cortisol, gut motility, and nervous system regulation contribute to the winter slump — and why your body is not misbehaving, but adapting.
You’ll learn how to:
☀️ Use morning light and rhythm-supporting habits to reset your internal clock
🍲 Support digestion with warm, grounding, winter-friendly meals
💊 Choose the three foundational supplements that make winter easier
🧘♀️ Honor your reduced bandwidth with micro-boundaries and nervous-system-regulating movement
If you’ve been wondering, “Why am I like this right now?” this episode will help you understand what your winter biology is trying to tell you — and how to support it, gently and effectively.
