Cast your mind back to your younger years: is it not true that you had a full tank of energy the whole day, and thoughts of exhaustion only entered your mind when you were told to go to bed. This is how life is meant to be with you living your life to the full followed by a very good restful sleep at bedtime. As you have grown older you may be like a number of other individuals who feel tired all the time and this can become a real blight on your life. It might be depriving you of spending time with family and loved ones, because you simply don't have the energy it takes. If you are suffering from low energy here are several ideas to help you.
The first thing to do is to eliminate any possible medical reasons, so have a complete checkup with your health care provider. It may also be the case that specific foods cause you to feel the way you do and this needs you to keep an eye on your eating habits and energy levels. As an example, one of the symptoms of gluten intolerance is fatigue and this requires a complete overhaul of your diet to remedy the problem. A diet that in general is poor could also lead to a lack of energy, so making some adjustments in this regard could result in a major improvement. If you're overweight, this will impact on your energy levels, so you should commit to more healthy eating on a day to day basis.
It is probably the case that as a kid you were naturally energetic because you were always on the move and running around having a good time. As people get older they usually become less active in general, and sometimes you even see them sitting around, just relaxing, being inactive. It's possible that just introducing more activity, more movement, walking outside in the fresh air, could change you from feeling tired to more energetic. You are certain to encounter internal resistance, because you are feeling exhausted after all, but shaking this off and getting some exercise may be just what is necessary to get you feeling able and willing just as before. Something that could be enjoyable as well as introduce the possibility of new friendships, is signing up for a keep fit class, which these days is available for everyone.
When you're feeling stressed out this may be the reason for your feelings of exhaustion, which could be apparent even after you've just woken up. It may also have an effect on how well you sleep, so learning to chill out is important. Interestingly, there are types of exercise which also provide the benefits linked to rest. Additional rewards are sleeping better and feeling more enervated upon waking.
If you follow these tips you should begin to feel less exhausted and have more energy in your life.
Health, energy
