How To Increase Your Energy
Being tired in fast becoming the new 20th century disease.
According to the book 'The 28Day Plan' lack of energy can be
attributed to: a bad diet, overindulgence in alcohol, lack of
sleep and smoking. Plus we know that stress can zap our energy
and leave us feeling tired. So how can we get more energy into
our life?
One of the best ways to increase your energy is to eat energy
producing foods such as porridge, muesli, fish, poultry, lean
lamb, bananas, dried fruit, fresh fruit, fresh vegies, baked
potatoes, wholemeal foods, fresh juices, water, Soya milk, seeds
and nuts. Foods to limit are coffee, tea, cows cheese,
beef/pork, sugary foods, pastries, biscuits, chips, white flour
foods, fizzy drinks and chocolate (oh no!).
Other tips in the 28-Day Plan book to raise and restore energy
are:
(1). Hibernation-take 20 minutes a day for quiet time. Think
about no one and nothing. Lie down, listen to some favourite
music or close your eyes and drift off to a beautiful island.
(2). Breath-Spend 5 minutes doing some deep breathing. Sit on
the floor in comfortable clothes. Close your eyes and slowly
breathe in through your nose, hold for a count of five and
slowly exhale to a count of 5.
(3). Laugh-Have a good belly laugh. Watch a funny video or tell
a funny joke. Refer back to my
last newsletter for more tips.
(4). Sleep-Most of us realise we need 8 hours of sleep for the
most benefit. Some other tips are to sleep with the window
slightly open (be security conscious too). Have a firm
supportive mattress and sufficient pillows. Eat at least 5 hours
before going to bed. Go to bed the same time each night. Relax
before bed.
(5). Pamper yourself-Go out and treat yourself to a beautiful
bunch of flowers (or pick some from your garden). Have a
massage, give yourself a facial or bubble bath, and go out for
herbal tea with a friend.
(6). Do some stretching and flexing of your body at the start of
each day.
(7). Exercise for 30 minutes each day. Some exercise ideas are:
walking, jogging, cycling, skipping, bouncing (trampoline),
swimming, cleaning and gardening. Have a health check before
starting any exercise program.
(8). Eat breakfast.
So get to it. Use this information and tips to begin putting
more energy back into your day!
