The November Slump: Why You Feel More Tired and Sore This Time of Year

As the days get shorter and colder, do you find yourself feeling more tired, stiff, or achy? In this episode, we explain the science behind the "November slump" — how lower sunlight, colder temperatures, and less movement can leave your body feeling heavy and sore. You'll learn why your muscles tighten up in the cold, how barometric pressure changes affect your joints, and what poor posture does to your spine during the darker months. We share simple, actionable ways to beat the slump — from short movement breaks and morning light exposure to staying hydrated and keeping up with regular chiropractic adjustments. This episode is your reminder that the November slowdown doesn't have to mean stiffness or fatigue — with a few small habits, you can stay active, energized, and aligned all winter long.
