Do you ever feel like you're trudging through the day, barely able to stay focused or motivated? If so, you're not alone. In today's fast-paced world, it's all too easy to succumb to the constant stress and fatigue that comes with our modern lifestyles. But fear not, we're here to help! We've rounded up some natural and science-backed tips to share with you today that can help you combat that perpetual feeling of exhaustion and reclaim your lost energy. So let's dive right in and explore these 8 invigorating hacks that will have you feeling like a brand new person in no time.

 

 

 

1) Drink Bitter Teas Before Meals To Stimulate Digestion

Before each meal, sip on a bitter tea blend to get your digestive juices flowing. Research shows that bitter herbs like dandelion and burdock root and teas like green tea and puehr can stimulate the production of digestive enzymes and bile, leading to improved digestion and nutrient absorption. Drink Bulletproof Breakfast in the morning before breakfast, and drink Smooth Jazz or Daily Detox before lunch and dinner.

Try sipping on a cup of bitter tea before your next meal and feel the difference! This is especially helpful if you have recurring digestive issues, or if you're getting older.

2) First Thing In The Morning, Take A 10 Minute Walk Outside

Want to feel more energized during your day? Take a quick 10-minute walk outside. Exposure to natural light, especially in the morning, can help regulate your circadian rhythm by signaling to your body that it's time to be awake and alert. When your circadian rhythm is in sync, you're more likely to feel alert and energized during the day and sleep better at night.

So, by taking a 10-minute walk outside in the morning and getting some natural light, you're helping to regulate your circadian rhythm and improve your energy levels throughout the day. Bring your morning tea with you with this awesome bamboo stainless steel tumbler!

3) Drink White Tea In The Morning

Ditch the coffee and switch to white tea in the morning! White tea contains a unique combination of caffeine and L-theanine that provides a more sustained release of caffeine than coffee. It'll help you stay alert and focused throughout the day, without the jitters and crash that come with coffee. Try our popular energizing and gut-friendly white tea blend, Sleek & Slender.

Staying hydrated is another super important hack for feeling energized throughout the day. Brew up a huge cup of white tea like Sleek & Slender, toss in a bunch of ice and fresh citrus slices, and voila! A delicious and energizing drink that also provides tons of hydration and antioxidants first thing in the morning. Try it out for yourself and see the difference it makes!

4) Drink Calming Herbal Teas During The Day

I know it might sound counterintuitive. But, did you know that caffeine stays in your system for 12 hours? So if you're guzzling caffeine through the afternoon, it's going to impact the quality and quantity of your sleep. This often leads to a caffeine & sleep-aid cycle where you then depend on sleep aids to fall asleep, then wake up feeling groggy, reaching for caffeine again...

Instead, after 10:30am, reach for a calming herbal tea like chamomile or lavender. These herbs contain compounds that have been shown to have relaxing effects on the body, helping to reduce stress and improve sleep quality. Drinking a cup of calming tea, like Lush Lavender, can help you feel more relaxed and energized throughout the day.

 

5) Use Beet Powder Before Exercise

Exercise is one of the best ways to feel more energized and alive. I know it can be tough to get motivated to move your body, but even just a few minutes of physical activity can make a huge difference in your mood and energy levels.

But, even better, use beet powder before your workouts! Beets are high in nitrates, which can help improve blood flow and oxygen delivery, giving that boost of energy you might be lacking in your current exercise routine. And unlike caffeine, beet powder gives you a cerebral energy that leaves you feeling truly energized without the risk of adrenal fatigue. For best results, aim to consume beets 30-60 minutes before exercise or in the morning to start your day off with a natural energy boost. You can get your hands on beet powder here.

6) Eat Frequent Snacks

Snacking throughout the day can help maintain steady blood sugar levels, which is key to feeling more energized. When you go long periods without eating, your blood sugar can drop, leaving you feeling tired and sluggish.

    By snacking on healthy options, like edamame beans or fruit and nuts, you'll be providing your body with a steady stream of energy throughout the day. And a bonus, these snacks are packed with nutrients, healthy fats, protein, and fiber, which will help you be healthier overall and prevent overeating during meals!

     

    7) Incorporate Adaptogenic Herbs Into Your Routine

    Adaptogenic herbs like tulsi and he shou wu have been shown to help reduce stress and improve energy levels. These herbs work by modulating the body's stress response, helping to improve resilience and reduce feelings of fatigue and burnout! Our favorite teas for energy that contain adaptogens are Smooth Jazz and Inflammation Relief.

     

    8) Connect With Nature, Undistracted

    In today's world of constant screen time and technology overload, it's more important than ever to step away and reconnect with nature. Spending time outdoors not only provides a much-needed break from the negative effects of screens on our physical and mental health but can also lead to reduced stress levels, improved mood, and an overall boost in well-being. So, put down the phone and step outside - your mind and body will thank you.
