• Steps

Life is inherently stressful, but it is so short that there is no time to spend the constant physical, emotional and mental fatigue. If you've felt exhausted lately, take some time to take a break and recharge. The time and energy for this is well worth it.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Recharge the body

1. 

   Take a warm bath. A long soak in a warm, relaxing bath can help soothe muscles. Take a bath at the end of a long day, even if you don't feel too upset. By relaxing your muscles, you send signals to your body that it's time to rest and relax. Activating a relaxing body mode before bed can help you sleep better, helping you feel energized in the morning.
   • Another way is to try a hot and cold shower. Hot-cold water healing is said to enhance the body's immunity and improve circulation. Your circulation can help you feel alert.
   • Take a hot shower as usual, then switch to cold and take a cold shower for about 30 seconds. Switch to warm water for another 30 seconds, then revert to cold water for 30 seconds before turning off the water.

2. 

   
   
   Use an exfoliating product. When you wake up in the morning, use an exfoliating product for the hands and feet. Also use an exfoliating cream on the face. Some exfoliating products work to remove dead skin cells and improve circulation throughout the body. As a result, the body will feel more energetic.

3. 

   Improve eating habits. Eat plenty of healthy, green vegetables, fruits, lean meats, good fats, and whole grains. Eating processed foods, sugars, and alcohol can make you feel tired. While you don't have to eliminate all of your favorite foods from your diet, limit unhealthy foods and focus on more nutritious snacks and meals.
   • Have breakfast. Skipping breakfast will leave you feeling exhausted in the middle of the day, and if you exacerbate the problem with a little lunch at the office, you'll have a hard time making nutrients lost at home. Breakfast should have a balance of complex carbohydrates, protein, and a little fat.

4. 

   
   
   Muscle relaxants. Stretch for at least five minutes every hour all day. Stretching makes you less stiff and less fatigued. Furthermore, it improves immediate circulation, promotes strong living energy.
   • Muscle stretching can be done simply. For example, try standing up straight, taking a deep breath, and raising your hand above your head. Hold this position for a few seconds before releasing your arms and slowly leaning towards the waist. Then, gently bend your head forward and back and forth to relax the neck area.

5. 

   
   
   Become active. Do something you enjoy doing, like walking, running, or swimming. Exercise doesn't have to be intense or long, but letting your body move for 10 to 30 minutes a day can cause your brain to release "happy" chemicals like serotonin, adrenaline, and endorphins. As a result, both body and mind will feel recharged.
   • Another benefit is to try exercising outdoors. Short walks on a sunny day will provide your body with more vitamin D from sunlight, and spending time outdoors — especially in nature — often helps to recharge your mind and body.

6. 

   Try aromatherapy. An essential oil candle is an ideal option, or you can add a few drops of essential oil to your bath water. Some scents are thought to help trigger the body's relaxation response, while others can make the body more energetic.
   • The scent of lavender can help relax you.
   • To recharge and revitalize the body, try rosemary, juniper, mint, and citrus.

7. 

   Sleep a lot. Most adults get only 5 to 6 hours of sleep per night, while they are advised to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep. The best thing to do for your body is to simply increase the number of hours you sleep each night and "make up" to get enough sleep. If possible, go to bed an hour early, for at least a week, and notice the difference.
   • If you can't get much more sleep, try a 20-minute nap. This will prevent you from falling into deep sleep but will still help your body recharge a little.

8. 

   Relax regularly. Take 10 minutes to rest every 90 minutes in a day. During this time, do something pleasant. Meditate, listen to music, play with a pet, or practice a hobby.
   • Make sure what you do during your break can be done during that period. Otherwise, you will find yourself stressed and distracted when you return to work.

Method 2 of 3: Recharge your emotions

1. 

   Singing. Some studies have suggested that singing has many of the same emotional, mental and physical health benefits as exercise. Singing aloud helps release endorphins and reduces stress. If you are uncomfortable singing in front of other people, sing in the shower or alone in the car.

2. 

   Correct mistake. A guilty conscience can suppress feelings of happiness. Sorry anyone you need to apologize. Take the trouble to heal a relationship that you have already hurt. You won't be able to go back in time, but by doing everything you can to correct your mistakes, you'll spend less time wasting your energy on guilt.
   • Likewise, if someone in your life has done something wrong to you, choose to forgive that person. Anger and hatred run the risk of draining as much energy as guilt.

3. 

   Create a list of achievements. Recharge to boost your confidence by sitting down and making a list of things you've achieved from the previous week, last month or year. Applying it regularly will help you feel continually charged, so remember to practice it often.
   • Avoid thinking about what you wanted to do but wasn't done yet. The important thing is to bring together the achievements and not focus on the things that were not achieved during the month.After all, most people rely on a list of what they want to accomplish in a day or week, but often a few expectations are actually greater than what people can do in reality with 24 hours. .

4. 

   Do not look back to the past. Everyone makes mistakes. Mistakes are an inevitable part of human experience, but sometimes they still remember their mistakes and cling to it for a long time. Next time you make a mistake, admit it, and remind yourself to come back to life in the present.

5. 

   Do something fun. Life is always busy, and in your journey of responsible life, you may find yourself procrastinating many things you enjoy doing or experiences you want to try. Procrastinating too often can make life less enjoyable. A dull, boring life can make you feel sluggish and less motivated than you would like.
   • Schedule it once a week (or at least once a month) to do something that you really enjoy.
   • Spend your vacation in a place you've never been. Holidays often help restore health as you discover new environments, cultures and experience in a foreign place.

6. 

   Enjoy your own pleasure. Most of the joys that make you feel guilty aren't worth the time — but to some extent, they can make you feel better. Eat dessert or read an entertaining romantic novel. Watch your favorite TV show for a few hours on a DVD or receiver and broadcast. Find something you enjoy doing but seldom allow yourself to, and enjoy them.
   • Of course, hobbies that are not as beneficial as taking medicine should still be avoided. The idea is to do something harmless that keeps you awake, not something harmful.

7. 

   Take a break from the people and things that make you tired. Everyone has to deal with something that is sometimes frustrating or exhausting. Try to avoid placing yourself in situations often where you have to deal with people or activities that are exhausting you. If you can't avoid it, at least take a day off so you don't have to spend time with them.
   • Avoid calls from friends that make life negative. You can call them back another day. Keep an email from a troubled colleague back for the afternoon, and respond when you have the emotional energy to handle the problem well with that person.
   • Put bills, bank statements and other financial documents in your desk drawer, and don't look at them until tomorrow.

8. 

   Spend time with friends and family. Focus on supportive relationships that you often don't have time to nurture. Make time to connect and have meaningful, one-on-one conversations with your husband and wife. Go to events for family and kids together, and have some activities that make everyone laugh.

9. 

   Meditate and pray. Make a commitment to spend 5 to 20 minutes meditating / or praying. Meditation may be suitable for both religious and non-religious people, but if you are a believer, prayer also adds an element of spiritual rejuvenation in the process. Either way, it's important to let go of the pain and the negativity during this time. advertisement

Method 3 of 3: Refuel your spirit

1. 

   Stop doing multiple things at the same time. Research shows that multitasking generally only makes people feel tired and less satisfied. You won't be able to focus on what needs to be done. Plus, even if you do all of it well, you can drain your mental resources more quickly if the tasks are handled individually.

2. 

   Don't do more than you can handle. Know your limits and don't put too much pressure on your time and energy. Focus on work that you controlled in the first place, instead of taking on more. Remember to take time for yourself.

3. 

   Use less technology. There are many benefits to being connected 24/7, but that level of connection with the outside world can quickly tire out. Light from television screens and computers can cause eye strain, headaches and alter melatonin production and circadian rhythms. Maybe these changes don't allow you to get restorative sleep every day. Make sure you turn off all electrical equipment at least an hour before going to bed.
   • Feeling connected to people even when you're alone leaves you never having a chance to relax and not being able to focus solely on yourself.
   • When it's time to go to bed, make sure you turn off your phone, sign out of your social media accounts, and turn off your computer completely. To avoid the temptation to turn all devices back on, get up yourself and move the tech devices away from you.

4. 

   Divide your big goal into smaller goals. When you focus on your long-term goals, good results seem small and distant. By dividing those goals into smaller, short-term chunks, you can regularly celebrate many small wins. It also makes it easier to focus on your goals.
   • For example, if you want to lose some dress / skirt size in six months, break up your goals by trying to lose 0.5 to 1 kg per week.

5. 

   Cut something out of the schedule. Even if you have the physical energy to keep up with a busy schedule, you might not have the mental energy to do it. Cut out anything unnecessary from your schedule. Freeing up more time, even just a few hours a month, can help you feel less stressed and focused.

6. 

   Don't think about your to-do list at the end of the day. Stop thinking about tomorrow and relax. If you tend to be obsessed with everything you have to do before bed, write it down in your notebook or on your computer. This can help you rest your mind more easily so you can sleep well.
   • You can take it a step further by scheduling everything for the next day before bed.

7. 

   Spend less time making decisions. The decision-making process requires a lot of mental energy. Limit the time to delay or think about a decision. This can save energy and make you feel more energized, especially when making a big, inescapable decision.
   • Decisions require action throughout the day. For example, would you like to have breakfast with cereal or toast? Should you wear black or brown pants? Should you go out after work with your coworkers when they invite you?
   • Understand that most of your options are not so important, so chances are you won't lose much if you start making less-perfect decisions. If the consequences are minimal, just follow instinct and don't be suspicious. Save energy and save it for important decisions with long-term consequences.
   • Note that making too stressful decisions can impair your ability to think in terms of abstract, planning, or concentration.
