We’d all like to have more energy throughout the day, but as we get older and our cells no longer function as efficiently, we need to be a little more cognizant of how our lifestyle choices impact our energy levels. Odds are you are doing some things throughout the day that are draining your energy, and all it takes are a few tweaks to your routine to successfully combat these feelings of fatigue. In today’s blog, we explore some simple adjustments you can make to your daily life to feel more energized.
Daily Tweaks For More Energy
Similar to a diet, you can expect better long-term results by making some small changes instead of completely overhauling your normal routine. We want these changes to stick, so you need to focus on small changes that can eventually become part of your daily routine. Here are five adjustments you can make in your daily life to find more energy.
- Regular Exercise – On the surface, exercise may seem like an activity that will physically tire you, and in a sense it will, but it can also provide you with a boost in energy. When you’re exercising, your heart rate increases and blood is pumped more effectively to your brain, enhancing your alertness and giving you an energized feeling. Exercise also leads to the release of endorphins in your brain that improve your mood, which in turn can leave you feeling ready to conquer the day.
- Swap In A Few More Healthy Foods – The nutrients our body receives through our diet help to fuel critical processes, and if it doesn’t have access to the right balance of vitamins and minerals, we can fatigue faster. You don’t need to completely overhaul your diet, but swap in a few more healthier meals or snacks in place of pro-inflammatory junk foods, and you may find that your body is better able to fuel activity thanks to a more complete nutrient portfolio.
- Limit Short-Term Energy Options – A coffee in the morning or a Red Bull in the afternoon can provide you with a short-term energy boost, but be wary of becoming overly dependent on these options. These caffeine-packed energy sources provide you with a jolt of energy followed by a crash, and this up and down ride can leave you feeling more fatigued when all is said and done. You don’t need to swear off all artificial caffeine sources, but finding more natural ways to become energized can help you avoid this crash and these big swings in energy levels.
- Make Time For Yourself – It’s important to carve out some “me” time every day to help you physically and mentally recover from the stresses of the day. When you feel like you never have a second for yourself, you can find it tough to muster the energy for other activities. Prioritize me time every day, even if it’s just for 15 minutes. Caring for your mental and emotional well-being can directly influence your energy levels.
