Everyone is familiar with all-out energy drain - that exhausted day (or night) when no matter how enticing that new movie, fabulous shoe sale, or friendly barbecue, we just can't psych ourselves up to go. If you find yourself feeling sluggish during the day or struggling to wake up in the morning, your first instinct is probably to turn to your coffee maker.
You may also find it harder to concentrate on tasks, and, eventually, you can also find your patience grows short and your level of frustration rises, even when confronted with seemingly simple challenges. Here’s what you can do to perk yourself up during the day, increase your energy levels, and feel more energized.
1. Healthy Diet: Diet plays an important role in how you feel. Eating a balanced diet can help ensure your vitamin and mineral needs are met. But if you still find yourself too pooped to pop, you could have a slight magnesium deficiency. The recommended daily intake of magnesium is around 300 milligrams for women and 350 milligrams for men.
2. Take a walk: Increasing physical activity - particularly walking - increases energy. A brisk 10-minute walk not only increased energy, but the effects lasted up to two hours. And when the daily 10-minute walks continued for three weeks, overall energy levels and mood were lifted.
3. Stay hydrated: Feeling tired is one of the first symptoms of dehydration. You should drink about nine cups of water per day for women and 13 for men. Don’t forget—a lot of foods hydrate you as well, such as fruits and vegetables. For a double effect, try eating an apple. Apples are both hydrating and awakening. Fruits are packed with a good source of the right ingredients to give you a natural energy boost—Vitamin C, fiber, and complex carbohydrates.
4. Get enough sleep: A lack of sleep can leave you feeling lethargic when you wake up. Make sure to limit screen time and work activities an hour before bedtime to give your brain time to unwind. Instead, take a bath or read a book listen to some soothing music to relax and it will help you to get a good night's sleep which will up your energy levels.
5. Hang out with friends: Emotions are surprisingly contagious. People who are constantly negative and down can sap your energy on the opposite people who have good mental attitude give you a real lift. It will help you to keep up and be more excited.
Final words: While these natural energy boosters are great ways to give yourself a pick-me-up, low energy levels can be a side effect of more serious conditions such as thyroid problems, anemia (iron deficiency), and depression. Try some new activities and natural boosters to perk up your energy level.
