The Winner’s Edge – Jan 29 – 11 Ways to Increase Your Energy/New Small Biz Site
Presented by Danek S. Kaus
One of the biggest problems many people have dealing with today’s challenges is not having enough energy to do what the need to do.
If that includes you, here are some great ways to rev up your engine and feel great.
One of the first keys to having more energy is to reduce stress. Too much stress depletes energy, leaves you prone to disease and speeds the aging process.
So let’s start with reducing stress and then becoming proactive.
Enjoy nature – If you live in urban sprawl, try to
find a way to get out in nature, even the local park
if it’s a safe one). Being around trees, flowers,
small animals but not snakes) is both relaxing and energizing.
If you can’t go out to nature, bring it home to you. There are DVDs of nature scenes and nature sounds on CDs, such
such as the ocean, creeks, wind in the trees and butterflies, (just kidding about that one
Listen to soothing music, such as New Age or many
classical pieces.
Deep breathing – this is a quick stress reducer. Most
of us breathe in short shallow breaths, high in the
chest. Instead, breathe down into your stomach. The
way to know that you are doing this correctly is to put your hand on your stomach. If your stomach moves your
hand out, you are doing it properly.
You do the technique by inhaling slowly, holding
the breath for a couple of seconds. Then exhale slowly. Repeat as many times
as is comfortable. Be sure to do this process slowly you don’t hyperventilate.
This technique also increases your health because it
helps your body to absorb more oxygen.
Meditation – there are many ways to mediate. One that health expert Deepak Chopra recommends is to focus on your breath as it enters the lower part of your lungs and then as you release it back out. Inhale through your nose and out through your mouth.
After doing this for a few days, quietly say to yourself “so” on the inhale and “hum” on the exhale.
Massage – if you’ve ever had a massage, you know what I mean about relaxation. If you haven’t, ask your significant other to massage you or see a massage therapist.
Aromatherapy – scent has a powerful effect on our minds and bodies. Many companies make a wide variety of aromatherapy products for just about every mental and emotional state.
Visualization – close your eyes, take a few deep breaths and imagine you are in a peaceful setting. I used to use this one with my clients a lot when I was a professional hypnotist. It works.
Exercise – it sounds counterintuitive when you’re tired, but proper exercise really does increase your energy levels. Caution: if you have not been exercising regularly for a while, be sure to check with your doctor first.
Decrease refined sugar and carbohydrates. They cause imbalances in your body chemistry that lead to fatigue and sluggishness.
Nourish your body --increase fresh fruits, veggies and whole grains.
