Energy - How We Lose It And How To Get It!
Energy truly governs our busy daily lives. Low energy can mean the difference between "going through the motions" and meeting life head-on with "gusto." Burnout is extremely common today. Sometimes a little mini-vacation will help you recharge. Other times the damage is more serious and may require medical attention, like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.
Now for the good news. There are little things you can do every day to build, store, and utilize energy when your body needs it. Natural energizers have great advantages over chemical stimulants. They support the body rather than deplete. Quick, natural energy boosters include such things as green tea, chlorophyll, vitamins/minerals, enzymes, alfalfa, spirulina, CoQ10, NADH, and alpha lipoic acid.
Adaptogenic type herbs like schizandra, ginseng, and astragalus nourish the adrenal glands which helps to modulate the release of cortisol in the body. If your energy is not at the level you feel it should be, check with your doctor for low thyroid, blood sugar imbalances or hormonic levels, especially testosterone, as you approach age 40.
Health Benefits of A Positive Attitude
University of California researchers found that actors could influence their immune systems by the emotions they portrayed. There are studies done by the likes of Harvard, Duke University, University of Chicago, etc. showing a direct relationship between improved health, extended life, an overall sense of well being and having a positive, happy attitude towards life. Championing the idea of optimism are musical bands like the Beatles who sang, “All You Need Is Love” and the popular Dave Mathews Band who poetically cites, “from the dark side we can see a glow of something bright.”
Yes, the cliché is true, life is going to throw out some lemons, but turning those lemons into lemonade is one of the most important keys to maintaining good health. It is also important to find humor in even the most difficult situations. “Humor stimulates laughter. And we know that physiological stimulation through laughter leads to a number of health benefits. It appears to reduce stress; it tends to boost immunoglobulin A (an antibody that fights upper respiratory disease); and it tends to boost killer T-cells, which are antibodies that fight infection.” Steven M. Sultanoff Ph.D.
Today, most everyone lives very hectic lives: rushing around in the mornings, working long stressful days, then coming home and trying to maintain the household. With all of this looming pressure, how can anyone focus on having a proactive “positive” attitude versus a reactive “pending the situation” attitude?
Well, first off when negative thoughts come to mind or when negative situations present themselves take a deep breath and resolve to move past it, let it go. “Yes, I am stuck in traffic for the 2nd time this week, tomorrow I will simply leave half an hour earlier, and bring my favorite CD to listen to.” Also, nurturing relationships of all kinds (family, friends, a significant other, co-workers, neighbors, etc.) aids in stress reduction as well as provides a sense of connectedness. Even though time is always an issue, volunteering can be one of the best ways to promote feelings of well-being.
Other ways to help you stay in a good mood are:
1. Try new experiences and challenge yourself
2. Devote time to doing activities that you enjoy
3. Watch less television
4. Savor the moment, quality counts as much as quantity
5. Try Optimize to make the most of your energy stores
For the sake of your health and for those around you, relax, smile, and tell a joke. And if you can’t convince those around you to share the same pleasant outlook, then find someone else to spend your time with. It is a proven fact that we are what we think … so put good thoughts into your mind. Try a smile on for size and if you had spinach for lunch, laugh about it.
Why Optimize?
Daily stress and problems can really wear us down and drain the body of the energy that it needs. When times demand more energy, more focus, and more personal involvement, that's when Optimize should be used.
Often times, we may have energy stores that the body simply cannot use because of nutritional deficiencies, which impede the efficient breakdown of said stores. When you think about it, it's really a shame. We may have the energy reserves, but simply can't access them appropriately, lacking the necessary biomolecules, which assist in the efficient workings of our biochemistry.
Optimize is a unique homeopathic medicinal that specifically addresses the body's needs for more energy. Designed to work with your body, Optimize complements the body's natural abilities to use all stored energy resources while also supplying a bevy of nutrients to maintain the body's metabolism.
