How to energize yourself when you feel extremely tired
Sometimes you may feel blue and no understand why you still have to reach for your caffeine fix even though you are well-rested. You may be looking forward to a meeting or a presentation but what if you don’t have time to be lethargic and can’t think of a reason why you are so drowsy?
It is very common to feel tired even if it is just the beginning of your day. Here are some quick tips that will help you energize yourself so that you can carry on with your daily activities with an alert mind.
Do Yoga
If there is one form of exercise that does not drain you, instead, keeps you energetic throughout the day, it is Yoga. Working on your postures and breathing can help you stay active for the day.
Hydrate
We are often too busy to realize that we haven’t had enough water. Dehydration can make you feel tired. Make sure you are drinking at least 3 L water a day so that your vital organs can function properly.
Grab a few nuts
Eating a mix of nuts will not keep away the hunger pangs but will also supply you with Foliate and Magnesium. These are necessary for energy production.
Take a walk
Sitting in one place for a long time can make you feel sleepy. Get away from your desk/bed and take a quick walk around. If you wish to, you can also go out and soak in some sun to feel even better
Eat sufficient protein
Try to add a certain amount of protein in your every meal so that you feel full for longer. Consuming empty calories may be one reason why you are low on energy. Instead of grabbing chocolate, candies or processed snack items, rely more on home-cooked food so that your energy level remains constant.
Here are some tips that will help you energize. Apart from that, make sure you are getting enough sleep. Getting too worked up or mentally exhausting yourself may also be the reason why you are feeling tired.
