life. It would be wonderful to know why. I've asked doctors,
read books, and learned that some questions just won't be
answered in my lifetime.
I've also learned that even without discovering the root
causes of my tiredness, there are things I can do to
alleviate it. Here are some of energy boosters that have
worked for me and others over the years. Sometimes it helps
to use several at once.
Energy Boosters
1. Breath deeply. Three slow deep breaths help oxygenate
the blood supply better, and especially seems to wake up the
brain.
2. Move. Often just getting up and washing the dishes, or
walking around the house helps boost energy levels.
3. Talk about something interesting. Get a tired person to
talk about something they're passionate about, and watch
their energy level rise. This one really works well.
4. Have a cup of coffee. Caffeine makes some of us more
tired when it's abused, but short-term, it can work
wonders.
5. Play energetic music. Different types of music have
different effects on us, but you can do this one by trial
and error. Once you find the ones that work for you, keep
them ready.
6. Try any of those "energy drinks." The verdict isn't in
on most of them, but it's a cheap option to try. I seem to
get something from the ones with Ginkgo Biloba in them.
7. Get better sleep. As long as you get at least five hours
of sleep, the quality seems to be more important than the
quantity.
8. Exercise. This is a longer term solution, but many
people notice an increase in their energy level when they
get regular aerobic exercise.
9. Take a hot and cold shower. One minute of hot water, one
minute of cold, alternating for six minutes. This isn't for
those with weak hearts, but it will wake you up.
Incidentally, research shows that this also revs up the
immune system.
10. Go outside. Sometimes a little sunshine and fresh air
can be very energizing.
By all means try to find the reasons for your tiredness or
fatigue. In the meantime, though, why not try some of the
energy-boosting methods here? None of them are expensive,
and you just might have more energy, starting today.
