Integrity = Being Your Word + Inner Guidance
Coming from a crazy family where people’s minds changed like the weather, I adopted the policy of being true to my word no matter what. Even if the time came and I didn’t feel like doing whatever I had agreed to, I kept my word and showed. I always...

Energy Boosters
I needed to learn about energy boosters. Fatigue and a lack of
energy have been problems for all my life. In an effort to find
out why, I've asked doctors, read books, and finally decided
that some questions just won't be answered in my lifetime.
Fortunately, I've also learned that even without discovering the
root causes of my tiredness, there are things I can do to
alleviate it. Below are some of energy boosters that have worked
for me and others over the years. Try them to see which work
best for you, and use more than one at a time if necessary.
Ten Energy Boosters
1. Energetic music. Different types of music have different
effects on us, but you can learn which are best for you by trial
and error. Once you find the music that wakes you up, keep it
ready. Keep a tape in your car, and a CD in the player at home.
2. Sleep better. The research seems to show that as long as you
get at least five hours of sleep, the quality is more important
than the quantity. Try drinking something warm before bed, or
relax with a simple meditation.
3. Talk about something interesting. Have you ever seen a tired
person start to talk about something they're passionate about,
and suddenly "wake up." It's a powerful technique you can use
for yourself. Have a few "favorite" subjects that get you going.
4. Coffee. For some of us, caffeine makes us more tired when
it's abused, but short-term, it can work wonders.
5. Deep breathing. Several slow
deep breaths help oxygenate the
blood supply better, and especially seems to wake up the brain.
6. Have an "energy drink." The verdict isn't in on most of
them, but it's a cheap option to try. I seem to get something
from the ones with Ginkgo Biloba in them.
7. Move your body. Sometimes just getting up and washing the
dishes, or walking around the house helps boost energy levels.
8. Exercise. It's not a quick solution, but many people notice
an increase in their energy level when they get regular aerobic
exercise.
9. Hot and cold shower. Try a minute of hot water, then a
minute of cold, alternating for six minutes. This isn't for
those with weak hearts, but it will wake you up. Incidentally,
research shows that this also revs up the immune system.
10. Get outside. Often, a little sunshine and fresh air can be
very energizing.
Write down the techniques that work for you when you find them,
to remind yourself to use them. Of course you should try to find
the reasons for your tiredness or fatigue. You may have more
luck than I. In the meantime, though, why not try a few of these
enrgy boosters?
