Natural Ways to Get More Energy

January 23, 2022 · In: Holistic Living

If you want to live a more holistic lifestyle, it means getting rid of some of the extras in your life that you don’t need. To start with, it might mean reducing stimulants like caffeine, which you have been relying on to get energy and stay awake. While coffee itself might still be good for you, what you add to it is not. Here are some ways to boost your energy in natural ways.

Start Your Day with Water

Before you do anything else in the morning, drink a glass of plain water or water with some lemon. This is a wonderful way to get some natural energy without ever having caffeine. It can reduce how much caffeine you end up needing and will hydrate you.

If you get too dehydrated, it can lead to even more fatigue, meaning you get even sleepier. Many people jump right into having coffee in the morning, but if you were to drink a tall glass of water when you wake up, you might find that you get a sufficient amount of energy for your morning tasks.

Get in More Exercise

It might sound counterintuitive, but an exercise in the morning can actually give you a nice boost of energy. Exercise is going to release endorphins during your workout, which are the happy chemicals your brain releases. It puts you in a good mood, which can also give you a quick boost of adrenaline. This generates more energy to get through your day without the use of caffeine and other stimulants.

Improve Your Sleep Habits

If you keep waking up extremely tired or have trouble getting through your day without stimulants, it might be from your poor sleeping habits. Now is a great time to think about your sleep hygiene and whether or not you have healthy sleep habits. This includes being sure you start getting ready for bed about an hour before you intend to sleep, turning off electronics, and having a comfortable place to sleep.

Get Necessary Nutrients from Your Food

Make sure you are eating a healthy diet with lots of vitamins and minerals. The nutrients to ensure you are getting proper energy include iron, creatinine, vitamin B12, and vitamin D. You can get these nutrients from your food, but also take supplements if necessary.

Save Your Refined Carbs for the Evening

Refined carbohydrates often make you feel sleepy and have low energy because of the blood sugar drop. If you want to avoid this, save your carbs for dinner, as you probably want to be restful in the evening.
