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!
