Even if exercise is the last thing on your mind when all you want to do is take a nap, exercising may give you that little energy boost you need. Exercise has been linked to improving quality of life, and that includes giving you an overall energy boost. Get out and go
for a walk next time you feel dragged down.
Kick the Caffeine
I know this may sound counter intuitive, but grabbing that cup of coffee every time you feel fatigue set in may actually not be helping you after all. Caffeine can give you a false sense of energy, and mask the underlying issue. Caffeine in excess can also burn out your
adrenals which is the very last thing you want to do.
Get to Bed Early
Getting to bed early, and preferably before 10 pm can help prevent a cortisol spike keeping you up later in the evening. Turn off all electronics and hit the hay early to wake up feeling more refreshed and ready to tackle the day.
Did you know that fatigue can impact more than just your energy levels?
Being chronically fatigued can affect your quality of life as well. With fatigue comes lack of motivation, missed deadlines, a lack of concentration, and can even impact social life. If you feel like you’ve reached burnout, fatigue can also affect
overall health as well.
