10 Quick Ways To Boost
Your Energy Level!

One of the great secrets to boosting your energy is taking action. Just by simply changing something in your life and doing something different you’ll increase your energy flow. Action gives you energy.

Sometimes we get bogged down with situations, habits, or people that drain our energy. What can you do? Begin by committing to spend time doing things that support your goals. Surround yourself with people who believe in you, and avoid situations and people who drain you. In addition, here are 10 quick steps you can take today to boost your energy:

1. Write Down 10 Things That You Like Doing. You can ramp-up your personal and professional energy level by focusing your attention on what you like doing. Motivation increases energy.
2. Take A Walk. Taking a 10-minute brisk walk will increase your energy level up to two hours, reported California State University researchers. Experts say increasing your physical activity whether it’s swimming, running, dancing, or biking will boost your energy level.

3. Organize Your Space. Clear out the clutter in your workspace. Clear off your desk and keep it organized. When you clear out clutter you are creating space for new things to enter your life and by doing this you’ll increase your energy and prosperity.

4. Eat Healthy Meals and Take Vitamins. Eat a balanced diet and take vitamins with minerals to ensure you’re getting all the nutrients your body needs. Also, make sure you’re getting enough magnesium (300 milligrams) by eating almonds, cashews, whole grains, bran, and fish – particularly halibut.

5. Turn Off The Negative News. Reduce your daily diet of negative news (TV, newspaper, radio, the Internet), which can
cause additional stress and fatigue. Focus your attention on the positive things happening in our world, and in your life.

6. Explore Your Creative Side. Do you like to play a musical instrument? Do you like to paint? Is there a hobby you thought you might like to try? Exploring your creative side stimulates your mind and can increase your energy by releasing endorphins (the feel good proteins occurring in the brain).

7. Watch A Funny Movie. Think about how you feel after you’ve watched a really funny movie, or had a big laugh. Laughing is good for your heart, reduces stress, and increases your energy.

8. Take A Power Nap. Taking a short 20-minute nap when you’re feeling tired can give your brain a rest and invigorate you...and a short power nap won’t keep you up late at night.

9. Pump Up Your Fluids. Even a little dehydration can leave you feeling tired and lethargic. Pour yourself a tall, cool glass of water.

10. Get a Good Night’s Sleep. Make sure you get sufficient rest, which, for the average person, is eight hours. Keep your sleep area dark to reduce any disruptions. A good night’s sleep goes a long way to keeping your energy level high.
