"Why Am I Always Tired?" - Free Resource For Ending Tiredness

 
 
Ok people, the power is about to be in your hands.  So many people already HAVE the tools and knowledge they need to truly eliminate tiredness from their lives, but they lack to motivation and end up chasing hours of crappy sleep with coffee, energy shots, and other “quick-fixes”.  However, what if someone was to tell you that making simple, non-obtrusive changes to several of your habits could leave you more alert, awake, productive, and not to mention in a better mood, every single day.  Now what if that person also mentioned that you could sleep LESS and accomplish this?  It might sound crazy, but I’m a person telling you exactly that.


First of all, let’s look at eating and diet, and how you can use them to have more energy.  While I could rant about healthy eating habits, it’d be just a little bit hypocritical as I myself indulge in the eating of the kind of fatty, sugary delights from time to time that can sap your energy right out from under you.  However, there isanother crucial mistake that many of us make:  We eat 3 meals a day.


“Wait, what’s wrong with THAT?” you might be asking yourself.  To put it simply, we evolved (or were designed, if you prefer) to eat frequently.  Our ancestors were foragers and would be constantly snacking on small portions throughout the day, maintaining a steady stream of energy.  Nowadays we have 3 pre-defined meals and snacking in between them can be problematic to our health, weight, and appearance because we eat so many calories at each of those meals.  As a result, many people experience energy dips, especially between lunch and dinner where six or more hours may pass without eating.


To address this, try and eat ever 3-4 hours or so.  Snacking on high protein foods in between your larger meals (you’ll also want to cut down your portions a bit at the 3 main ones).


Alternatively, another way you get have more energy is by sleeping SMARTER, not longer.  Because our body sleeps in cycles of 90 minutes, you can easily sleep just 6 or 7.5 hours and get several FULL cycles of sleep (because these hours are divisible by 1.5) and wake up more rested than if you had slept 8 or ten hours because you wouldn’t be waking your body up in the middle of a reparative cycle.

Tiredness is a complex issue that can affect your life in many ways.  For completely free advice on dispelling tiredness and the like, be sure to check out my newsletter (located in the sidebar to the right).

Wouldn’t we all like to get more energy and have more time in a day?  If you could go to bed LATER than usual and/or wake up EARLIER and feel more awake than ever, just imagine what you could do with those extra hours!  In fact, I think we’d all love to have more hours in a day and, if you know what you’re doing, this really isn’t all that difficult.  This article is going to outline a few easy ways in which you can be on your way to getting more energy and having more time to do the things you enjoy throughout the day.


First of all, take power naps.  A power nap is actually a fairly specific thing, and needs to be done right to really give you a boost of energy.  Because the average human being has a sleep cycle of around 90 minutes, you are going to either nap for an hour and a half or 3 hours.  However, 3 hours is enough to throw your body off (so that falling asleep at night can be difficult) and for this reason I recommend going for the 1.5 hour nap.  Having a full sleep cycle injected into your day can go miles towards giving you more energy.


Now you might be thinking, “why would I sleep more to get more time in a day… isn’t that using time too?”.  While the time gained from sleeping for an hour and a half will be greater than the actual time spent napping, you DO have a point; so let’s look at some other things you can try…


Swap out your fatty foods.  I know, I know, it SUCKS that it’s always the stuff that tastes so good that is oh-so-bad for you but foods tat are over the top in fat and sugar content suppress chemical reactions in the brain for things like endorphins, which are necessary in giving you a feeling of alertness.  Without this, your body feels tired.  A few days after eating healthier, you will notice massive changes for the better in both mood and energy level.


Lastly, make sure you’re moving and staying active.  A body that isn’t used to exerting itself will NOT budget energy for physical activity and you’ll be constantly running low on energy because, physically, you haven’t been demanding it of yourself.  Getting your heart rate up will actually release massive amounts of endorphins, so a quick workout will actually leave you MORE awake and alert for a while afterwards.
