Get More Energy!
This time of year do you start to feel run-down and short on energy? Do you feel like YOUR batteries need recharging? In the Dec. issue of Redbook magazine (www.redbookmag.com) top energy solutions are listed.
Go for a walk. Even a short walk will make you feel energized. For the best results, aim for 30 minutes of activity, 5 days a week.
Snack on nuts, not sweets. This sounds like a fairly easy thing to do. Sugary snacks cause blood sugar levels to spike, then crash leaving you feeling wiped out. The protein in nuts digests slowly giving you lasting energy.
Have a banana. Bananas provide potassium which helps convert blood sugar into energy.
Take a power nap. A 30-minute nap prevents energy from flagging further.
Do a mini-meditation. Sit in a quiet place, take deep, slow breaths and concentrate on a pleasing memory. Within three minutes you should feel more energized.
For more energy solutions, pick up the Dec. issue of Redbook.
