Energy is the foundation of everything we do, from powering our morning workouts to staying focused at work and being present with our loved ones. It's not just about staying awake; it’s about showing up fully, mentally and physically, every day.
Fun Facts About Energy:
-
The brain uses approximately 20% of your daily energy intake.
-
Mitochondria, often called the “powerhouses” of cells, convert food into usable energy.
-
Even mild dehydration can significantly reduce your energy and focus.
Common Energy Struggles
Most people experience:
-
Mid-day crashes
-
Brain fog or lack of focus
-
Feeling tired despite getting enough sleep
These challenges are often tied to:
-
Poor nutrition or inconsistent eating habits
-
Dehydration
-
Sedentary lifestyles
-
Vitamin or mineral deficiencies
-
High stress or poor sleep quality
It’s tough to fix low energy because the causes are usually multifactorial—requiring changes in sleep, diet, hydration, and daily activity all at once.
Tips to Boost and Maintain Energy (and keeping it for 21 days so it sticks)
-
Start with Movement: A 10-minute walk or stretch in the morning jumpstarts your energy.
