3 ways to kick up your energy!
3 ways to kick up your energy!
Having a wealth of energy is the key to doing what every you want in your free time. If you don’t watch your energy closely you will sure miss it! Likely when you neglect your regular eating and sleeping you will get very tired and unmotivated to exercise. When you get home from work, the last thing you think about is WORKING OUT! This is a cycle that can be broken in 3 SIMPLE STEPS!
1. Regular snacking
Eating every 2 - 3 hours is the natural cycle of the human metabolism. Restoring your blood sugar levels by consuming 6 small (low or NO sugar) meals a day will not only regulate your energy, but also enhance your mood, productivity and focus. Start out by bringing veggies, fruit and nuts with you during the day and you will see a huge shift in energy!
2. Rest
It is recommended that you get 7 - 9 hours sleep each night, however quite often the quality of this sleep can be in question. Try reading a little bit before bed. Reading before bed stimulates theta brain waves similar to meditation. This should allow you to fall asleep easier and hopefully get into deeper states of rest. If this isn’t enough, try napping during the day between 2 -3 p.m. and never more than an hour.
3. Movement
The old saying “Move it or loose it” is SO TRUE! The less you use your body the less your body wants to move. Moving your body every day is critical for the person seeking more energy. Start with a 15 min walk up the hill by your house, and gradually after a week incorporate some light exercise.
In time as you refine your HEALTH PRACTICE you will continue reaping more and more powerful benefits. After a while these benefits will become so important to you that you will be hooked on wellness. For now… baby steps.
