In this episode, Dr. G dives into the overlooked science behind timing your phone use. Research shows that the most damaging effects on your brain, mood, and digestion aren’t caused by how long you're on your phone but when you reach for it.

Dr. G breaks down:

– Why checking your phone right after waking can spike anxiety

– How screen time during peak cognitive hours (9 AM–12 PM) disrupts focus and performance

– The impact of phone use during meals on digestion and hormonal balance

– The ideal windows to use your phone without draining your energy or attention

This episode isn’t about quitting your phone. It’s about aligning your habits with your body’s natural rhythms for better mental clarity, reduced stress, and stronger emotional fitness.
