It’s a light problem, and the fix starts with your eyes, not your skin.</p><p><br></p><p>Naturopathic doctor Dr. Paul Hrkal joins Gina Livy to explain how shorter, darker days throw off your circadian rhythm and drain your energy. He shares why a 15-minute morning walk without sunglasses (or a light therapy lamp on grey days) can change how you feel, even bundled up in a parka and SPF. He breaks down the three health levers he calls mandatory and why he sees strength training as the most powerful one after menopause. Gina and Dr. Paul also get into why motivation fades once the scale stops being the goal, how to find a “why” that holds up through a stressful holiday season, and why doing something at 50% beats waiting until you can do it all.</p><p><br></p><p>Where to Find Dr. Paul:</p><p>Instagram: <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/drpaulhrkal/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/drpaulhrkal/</a></p><p>Website: <a href=\"http://www.paulhrkalnd.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.paulhrkalnd.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>This podcast aligns with Day 60 of our Fall Program, members can find video in our Livy Method app and community group: <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/livymethod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.facebook.com/groups/livymethod</a></p>","author_name":"Gina Livy"}
