This month we explore the seasonal shift: why everyday movement matters more than we give it credit for, what “tech neck” is doing to our kids’ posture, and why comfort food cravings ramp up in the colder months (and how to enjoy them without the energy crash).
🏃 Why Daily Functional Movement Matters More Than You Think
Our bodies were built to move — bending, squatting, reaching, carrying, climbing. But modern life has us sitting for hours at a time, and Dr Ben explains why no single gym session can undo a day spent still. He breaks down what functional movement actually is, why it matters for joints, muscles, balance and mood, and the small, everyday habits that keep your body doing what it’s designed to do.

By Sore neck after tablet time? Shoulders rounding forward? Dr Shinay looks at “tech neck” in kids — what’s actually happening to a growing spine under the weight of a forward-tilted head, why it’s about more than posture alone, and practical ways parents can build healthier screen habits without a full-on tech ban.

She unpacks why our brains chase quick energy fixes in colder months, and shares warming meal ideas that satisfy the craving while keeping energy more consistent.
