We automatically think that healthy food and exercise will give us more energy and it usually does.
Often when we feel drained and exhausted, the first thing we do is consider changing our diets and exercise regime to see if we can improve our energy levels. Often we ignore the fact that there are many other contributing factors that deplete our energy besides an inadequate diet.
Perhaps it is worthwhile acknowledging that everyday life can completely deplete our energy especially if you do not pay attention to what and where you are investing YOUR energy.
Keeping your energetic body healthy will automatically support keeping your physical body healthy.
Have you ever really paid attention to what is either draining your energy or recharging your energy on a daily basis?
If you are feeling exhausted, perhaps it is worthwhile considering managing your precious energy similarly to how you would manage your finances.
When it comes to our energy, we are all presented with opportunities to invest minute by minute.
From relationships to career issues
From thoughts to discussions
From colleagues, friends and family dramas
To eating, exercising and even sleeping
Opportunities to invest our energy are continuous.
Stop and really examine all these investment opportunities that are in front of you. Each one carries a return.
In order for you to stay healthy, your energy investments need to return more than you have invested. Ideally, you should actually earn interest on your investments.
If what you choose to invest your energy in over the day does not pay back a positive return to you, why put some of your very valuable energy into it?
If current energetic investments are depleting you, it wont be long until you will be left with a zero energy balance. When this happens, all sorts of problems will arise especially with your wellness.
If you are exhausted and feel completely stressed start managing your energy investments and really examine what and where and even who is draining your resources.
If you have 100000 dollars in the bank and it has to support you for a long period of time, you are going to invest, protect and manage it wisely right? Why should YOUR energy be any different?
It is vital to make deposits into our energetic accounts daily. We need to do things that revitalize, increase energy and power up our stores.Making daily deposits into our energetic account not only positions you better for that day, but it is also a long-term investment strategy into your health and wellbeing.
Your personal energetic account accepts healthy deposits of any type really but some will be valued more highly by your body based upon your individual needs.
Start thinking that a deposit is a deposit – and it’s always going to build up your stores
Energetic deposits include
Saying NO
Setting clear boundaries
Walking away from negative situations that do not involve you
Focussing on where your thoughts are and really acknowledging how much time you invest in negative thinking.
Meditation
Diet & exercise
Resting
Simplifying your life
Letting go of anger and animosity
Keeping an asset/deficit balance sheet even for a few days will give you an extremely clear picture of where and how you’re adding to your energetic account and where and how you’re overdrawing on it.
Consider, during the course of your day, have you accumulated more stress or more peace?
CHANGE the situations in your life today that deplete your energy. Your energy is a precious commodity. Be responsible for your wellness.
