Recharge Your Energy Levels!


Do you get that feeling sometimes like you're so tired your head
 is just going to drop down at any moment? We've all been there,
 and it's hard to deal with this feeling, especially when doing 
something important like work or hanging out with family. 
That is why we've gathered these 15 ways to energize yourself 
you can do almost anywhere! We hope this will help 
charge your battery!
1. Eat a banana
Bananas provide minerals, nutrients and stimulants such as 
potassium, which provides controlled energy, preferred to 
the type of energy obtained all at once from simple sugars.
 
2. Place head between your legs
This trick will get blood flowing to your head. Sit on a chair 
and put your head between your legs. Send your arms towards 
the floor and relax your body for 20 seconds. After the
 time has passed, rise slowly, vertebra by vertebra. This 
exercise will give you energy that gradually unfolds.
 
3. Drink Green Tea
Yes we've said it before, but the fact still remains that green 
tea has an abundance of phytochemicals called tannins.
 These help, among other things, to calm the nervous system
 and thus increase the feeling of well-being.
 
4. Pinch your cheeks
Our grandparents probably had a good reason to pinch our cheek.
 This stimulates the blood flow to the face and makes you feel
 more alert.
 
5. Drink lots of water
All body systems require a large amount of water to function. 
In the absence of water in the body, proper functioning slows, 
blood flow becomes weaker and less oxygen reaches the brain. 
Drink a glass of water every two hours at least, when the goal 
is to drink 8-12 glasses of water a day.
 
6. Get some sun
Small doses of vitamin D can be a great incentive. Take a walk
 or sit a few minutes in the sun. Fresh air combined with natural 
light will make you feel more alert.
 
7. Move the body
Once you feel the fatigue taking over, get up and shake your body.
 Do some stretching, push-ups, a short trip or just a few 
jumps instead. Movement stimulates blood flow in the body 
and releases endorphins that make you feel alert.
 
8. Laugh out loud
Laughter has been shown to destress us but also acts as a 
natural stimulant. A good belly laugh releases endorphin
that neutralize the bad effects of the hormone cortisol 
(stress hormone), increase blood flow and oxygen and give you a
 sense of well being.
 
9. Take a deep breath
Take a deep breath and slowly let it out through your nose, and 
again, fill your abdomen and exhale, emptying all the air from
 your lungs. Do it three times. Breathing will help your body relax 
and get rid of toxins, and the oxygen will stimulate you.
 
10. Put in a house plant
Stuffy offices have limited air movement which can increase 
fatigue and cause headaches and allergies. Insert household 
plants that can help filter out volatile chemical compounds 
and airborne pollutants, as well as stimulate air movement to 
better help you deal with the standing air, and make you feel 
less fatigued.
 
11. Smell a lemon
Certain smells like citrus, ginger and mint can produce a 
stimulating effects and increase alertness. Light a scented 
candle or sniff a lemon for stimulating energy and improved mood.
 
12. Surround yourself in red 
Studies show that the color red is associated with a sense of 
victory and confidence. Try to surround yourself in shades of 
red to elevate your mood.
 
13. Sit upright
it wouldn't hurt to stand up straight in the chair. An Upright 
posture not only helps blood and oxygen to move more freely, 
but also enhances the sense of security.
 
14. Wake up the brain 
When the brain feels drowsy, try to wake him by solving a 
crossword puzzle, reading aloud, talking to a friend, a quick 
recitation or singing. 
 
15. Play with a pet
Spend time with your furry friend. It will make you feel happier 
and more energetic!
