    TOGU | 27 October 2026
    Seit dieser Woche gilt wieder die Winterzeit. Um 3 Uhr am Sonntag sprangen die Uhren auf 2 Uhr zurück, die Nacht hatte 25 Stunden. Ab jetzt beginnt der Feierabend in der Dämmerung, und viele spüren in den ersten Tagen, dass der Körper noch im alten Takt läuft. Eine Frage, die Physiotherapeuten aus unserem Netzwerk in diesen Wochen oft hören: Wie bleibe ich in Bewegung, wenn es um fünf schon dunkel wird? Die Antwort ist erfreulich bodenständig. Es braucht Tageslicht, ein paar feste Gewohnheiten und eine kurze Übungsfolge, die in jedes Wohnzimmer passt.
