We’ve all been there (and maybe we’re there right now)! We’ve all had days or moments when our energy just seems to crash. We’re just trying to do our day and it sometimes descends upon us like a huge warm, wet blanket. Sometimes it’s because we had a late night, other times the reason eludes us. No mater the reason, we just want to know how to get energy, now! We’ve got stuff to do, dang it! We can’t just go to bed and take a nap, dagnabit! We’ve got kids who need out attention, or we’re at work and we definitively can’t take a nap there!
So, what’s a girl to do? Don’t you worry your tired, pretty little head. Don’t you fret. Because, I got you.
Natural Energy Boosting Tips
Here are some natural, energy boosting tips:
- đŚDrink enough water. I know, this one is unexpected, but if we’re dehydrated, we tend to fatigue more easily. I know I’ve personally noticed this to be the case in my life.
- đ´Get good quality sleep Now, donât stop reading just yet. I know youâre probably thinking, âgee, thanks captain obvious! I never wouldâve guessed that sleeping would solve my sleepiness problem!â *eye-roll* But, notice that I said, âgood quality sleep.â According to Ayurveda and conventional science, one of the best ways to improve your quality of sleep (provided thereâs nothing else going on like an endocrine imbalance) is to get to bed early and waking up early on a consistent basis. Good sleep hygiene is worth more than gold! I have some tips about waking up early for those of us who are not morning people, here.
- đImprove your diet. Reducing processed foods, especially processed sugar can really help with your energy levels. Also, try not to get your energy from your coffee, or energy drink.
- đTake care of any emotional or stress that can drain you. You can do this by assessing your schedule or by increasing your resilience through a regular yoga practice and through EFT.
- đââď¸Exercise in the middle of the day, if your schedule permits.
How to Recharge, NOW!
Ok, so, now youâve got some homework to do so you can keep your energy levels consistently where they should be. But, youâll say, Iâm tired now and most of these tips wonât help me now. First things first, drink some water and donât reach for more coffee, an energy drink or sugary snacks.
Follow what I do in the video instead and youâll find that youâre invigorated again!
Playing some dance music and dancing along always gets my energy levels up too! Another practice would be surya bhedana pranayam, or sun-piercing/right nostril breathing.
Enjoy your more joyful, not-running-on-empty, life!
