As a child you may recall that you always had a zest for life and the only time you felt tired was just before bed. That is exactly how it should be - having a full day right before retiring for a night of sound and restorative sleep. As you have grown older you may be like many other folks who feel worn out constantly and this can become a real curse on your life. It can indicate you're too exhausted to enjoy time with your kids and you miss out on activities because you do not feel you've got the energy to take part. Here are several tips that will help you beat feeling worn out constantly.
The first thing to do is to get rid of any possible health factors, so have a complete checkup with your health care provider. It's also advisable to record the foods you take in and your energy levels, considering that often food can be the source of the problem. As an example, one of the symptoms of gluten intolerance is low energy and this requires a total overhaul of your diet to remedy the problem. It can of course just be a generally unhealthy diet that causes you to feel tired constantly and so a few changes here can make a huge difference. If you are obese, this will impact on your energy levels, so you must commit to more healthy eating on a daily basis.
When you were a young child you were probably on the go most of the time, dashing around joyfully, and maybe this invigorated you and kept your apparent level of energy up. As you grow older it's easy to become far less mobile and in the worst cases, you'll see lots of people who spend most of their time sat down doing nothing. It's possible that simply introducing more activity, more movement, going for walks outside in the fresh air, could change you from feeling sluggish to more energetic. You are certain to encounter internal resistance, since you are feeling worn out after all, but shaking this off and getting some exercise may be just what is needed 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 enrolling in a keep fit class, which these days is available for everyone.
An unnecessary amount of pressure in your life will leech your energy and could manifest as tiredness even with a night's sleep. It may also have an effect on how well you sleep, so learning to calm down is vital. You can get this as an extra benefit by taking part in some types of exercise. Additional rewards are sleeping better and feeling more enervated upon awakening.
You are likely to gain in energy and be exhausted less often if you start putting the above advice into practice.
Health, energy
