Movement plays a crucial role in girls' mental health, especially when your teen daughter is struggling to leave her room. 

In this episode, we explore how to recognise what truly counts as movement when traditional activities like walking or going outside feel overwhelming for her. Understanding teen behaviour through the lens of a nervous system shutdown helps us realise why big movement can be inaccessible, and guides us to start with smaller, manageable actions like bouncing or stretching, right there in her room. 

This episode offers parenting support tailored to teen girls experiencing shutdown, showing you how to create a movement plan that is uniquely hers and respects her pace. Plus, enjoy a memorable supermarket story that might change the way you approach these challenges. 

Tune in to gain insight into fostering a healthier mum-daughter relationship through understanding and acceptance, supporting your daughter's mental wellbeing from the inside out.
