How to Increase Your Energy Levels Naturally
Essential Water Keep your body hydrated throughout the day. The first sign of dehydration is fatigue. Your body can function at capacity without that good old H2O. A steady supply of water will naturally keep things flowingincluding your energy.
Improve Sleeping Habits Often a small adjustment of your sleeping habits can already do wonders for your energy levels.
Lying in bed is not sleeping: Don go to bed if your not sleepy and end up lying in bed pondering and stressing. If you are drifting off at the computer, while reading, or watching TV, it’s time to get to bed. Your bedtime should and will vary from night to night. Let your body tell you when to sleep as opposed to the following the 8-hour rule.
Rise and Shine: Put an alarm and get up at the same time everyday.
Sleepy at Noon?: Try a powernap of 20 minutes in a quiet place.
Experiment and find out what your optimal sleep levels are.
Yoga, Exercising & Stretching It sounds counter-intuitive, perhaps, but by expending energy on a regular basis, you will actually give yourself more of it in the end. The key is to set up a fairly regular scheduleabout three times a weekand push to the point that you feel refreshed, not exhausted. Don overdo it. It may take a couple of weeks to get into the natural rhythm, so have patience and higher energy levels will follow.
Deep breathing exercise Another great way to re-energize your body is with a quick deep breathing exercise. Sit on a chair with a straight back and breathe deeply while you focus on your breath going in going out. At the same time use a powerful affirmation to invigorate your mind and body.
Eliminate Energy-Sappers From Your Diet Have more alkaline-forming foods like fruits and vegetables. Avoid excess sugar and coffee as they lead to lower blood sugar levelsand less energyafter they give you an initial kick. Also one could pack some almonds and nuts for a quick and convenient protein snack.
