Yesterday I wrote a blog post about the Power of Energy. You can check it out here if you happened to miss it. It talked about tuning into your energy. Well today I am sharing with you my Top Five Tips to Increase Energy.
First, let's begin by tuning in and getting a sense of where our energy is on a scale of 1 - 10. 1 is that you are feeling like you could hide under the bed. Heaviness and sluggishness are settled into every cell. 10 is like you just had a hit of runner's high combined with winning the lottery. Your smile feels ear to ear.
Close your eyes (unless you are driving, and then why the hell are you reading this post while driving? That shit is dangerous).Take a nice deep breath in through your nose and exhale out of your mouth.
Ask yourself, where does my energy rate on a scale of 1-10. And number is going to bubble up. Perfect. That is the number. No need to second guess it or wish that it were higher. Where you are right now is absolutely perfect. Gold Star for you.
Now, ask yourself, am I happy with this number? If the answer is yes. Great. If not, even better. You now have the perfect opportunity to apply one or all of the following 5 techniques to increase your energy. With each of these tips, always assess where you are on the energy scale. Before and After so that you can appreciate the improvement.
Tip One: 20 Breaths In and Out through your nose as fast as you can. I learned this at a Kundalini workshop. You may want to have a tissue handy. I learned that the hard way. Not sexy.
Tip Two: Using only your brain power. Tell your brain that it's job is to increase your energy levels by 1 -2 points. Close your eyes. Picture a pinball game. The little ball bouncing off the edges and the flippers. It is really moving. Now watch it moving faster and faster. It is going so fast it has those little tracers. Where it looks like streaks of light everywhere. It is moving so fast and with such force the pinball machine is starting to lift up off of the ground. Do this for a minute as you feel every cell of your brain and body responding faster and faster. This also works with picturing a rollercoaster as well.
Tip Three: Laughter. It seriously is the best medicine. Get your phone out. Set a timer for 30 seconds. Or a minute. And for those 30 seconds, you are going to fake laugh. Outloud. YES, OUTLOUD. You can start with a timid heeheehee or hahaha. And then start using different voices. High pitch. Deep. You pick. Let a smile cross your face as you do it. Really allow yourself to get into it. Chances are that when you are finished, you are laughing for real. Your brain doesn't know if you are faking it or not and starts sending you some feel good endorphins
Tip Four: Tap It Up. Don't worry this does not involve tap shoes. Although tap shoes make my energy list...just not the top five. Practice Emotional Freedom Technique aka Tapping. I am a huge fan girl of Margaret Lynch. And I use her youtube video Something Big Is Happening Here . I use this daily actually. I love it.
Tip Five: This tip isn't for the kiddos. Yet it may be the one you appreciate most. Have fun in the shower. A removable shower head can be your best friend. It is stress relieving. You get the feel good endorphins, increased energy and bursts of creativity. I find this tip to be very good when one is feeling stuck or blocked. Resistance be gone. Maybe that is what we can name it. LOL.
Ok, there you have it. The top five tips to increase your energy. Let me know which one worked best for you.
Until tomorrow, have a day as Beautiful as you,
So much Love & Gratitude,
Lisa
