Tip #19: 3 Hacks to Instantly Energize You. 

1st - Move:

As simple as get up and jump! That’s right - jump up and down, jumping jacks, throw your arms around and twist your body any way you like - shake your body and make dance moves as if no one was watching! Have fun with this and feel like a kid again - and notice how energized you instantly feel!  

What happens when you jump and your feet leave the ground, is an instant shot of energy to your body. When you’re in the air, the effects of gravity are minimized on your system which acts like a mini reset for your body. Your cells are infused with more oxygen as your blood pumps throughout your body - and oxygenated cells provide you with energy. Pretty cool stuff right?! 

2nd - Breathe:

Take a deep breath in to the count of 6. Make sure it’s a long steady breath and really feel your lungs expanding. Then hold the breath for 3 counts, breath out for 3 counts, and hold the breath out for 3 counts. Repeat 2-3 times and notice your energy levels! 

What’s happening here, is that breathing IN brings more oxygen into the body and refreshes the red blood cells. These oxygenated cells can zip around the body delivering oxygen (and energy) everywhere. The result is that you feel energized! Breathing IN is also stimulating to the body, so by breathing IN for longer than you breathe OUT, this is a signal to the body to wake up and have energy! 

3rd - Click sho ENERGY+:  

For an immediate energy boost that is also sustainable without jitters, what's better than clicking sho Energy+ dispenser and swallowing a couple of Spheri-Gels filled with potent B vitamins, Matcha and natural caffeine?
