Tips to Increase Your Energy
When You Feel Worn Out

Have you been so tired that it was impossible to keep your eyes open or even focus? You keep yawning, and you feel drained to the core in the middle of working hours?

Usually, the first thing most people turn to when their energy is low is coffee and energy drinks. Sugar and caffeine might give you a quick energy boost, but after that energy wears off, you’ll feel even more drained by the end of the day.

What you need isn’t a quick fix. You need something that will help to keep you from getting worn out.

Here are eight ways to increase your energy 
and fight the feeling of being worn out:

1. Sleep on time. Lack of sleep is one of the primary causes of feeling worn out. Have a reasonable sleeping time and stick to it. If it helps, set a reminder or an alarm for when to sleep.

   ● Try and get at least 8 hours of sleep at night. Your body and mind will rest, and you’ll wake up refreshed and energized.

2. Avoid skipping breakfast. Studies show that people who eat breakfast have less fatigue and stress than people who skip it.

   ● Foods high in fiber, like hot oatmeal, stick with you longer than sweets or pastry. As the day goes on, they’ll curb hunger and low energy.

3. Play your favorite playlist. Singing along to your favorite songs could be a game-changer for you. It gives you an emotional high while reducing stress hormones in your body.

   ● Your brain is on another level when you’re playing music and enjoying it. You may be able to think faster and work quickly without feeling sluggish or worn out.

4. Stay hydrated. Dehydration saps energy and weakens strength and stamina. Stay hydrated by drinking more water. It will also improve sleep quality, cognition, and mood.

   ● Snacks like banana slices, fresh berries, or nuts that contain protein with slow-burning carbs are best for retaining your blood sugar levels for an extended period.

6. Stay with energetic people. Emotions are contagious. You can get energy and good vibes from people around you. They can help uplift your mood, while people who are often negative and down can sap your energy.

   ● Keep positive energy around you all the time. It has more influence on you than you may think!

7. Keep time with your body clock. Some people are more energetic in the morning, while others are at their best at night.

   ● Take notice of your body clock and try to schedule your demanding activities when your energy levels are maximum.

8. Check your health. Sometimes, individuals who feel worn out most of the time may be dealing with an unknown health concern. Common symptoms of many illnesses, anemia, and sleep apnea can be fatigue. See a doctor if you continually feel exhausted.

Your body is yours and yours forever. Take care of it!

Show yourself the love you deserve and take breaks from work if your body needs it. Go for regular checkups, sleep well, eat well, and keep positive energy around you. You’ll have more energy as a result.
