With more and more people working from home or being homebound in West Des Moines, that mid-afternoon burnout is becoming more and more common.
If you are having a hard time getting motivated or keeping your eyes open come mid-afternoon, you are not alone.
While many try to address this mid-afternoon burnout with caffeine, there are natural energizers you can utilize to keep yourself energized throughout the day.
Natural Energy Boosters:
- Keep Moving. Try taking your afternoon phone calls on your feet will help prevent your body from relaxing too much.
- Stretch. Doing simple stretches to get the blood flowing can help give boost of energy.
- Eat High-Protein Snacks. Satisfy hunger cravings with snacks high in protein such as almonds or a hard boiled egg. Avoid sugar as much as possible as a sugar crash will only make you sleepier.
- Drink More Water. No brainer. Water is the cure all for just about anything. If you think you are consuming enough H2O you likely aren’t.
- Drink Green Tea. While you should limit caffeine, drink a cup of green tea instead for a little pick-me-up.
- Get Adjusted. A chiropractic checkup is a natural way to keep your body healthy and energized.
