Combat Winter Fatigue: 9 Energy Boosting Tips

9 Energy Boosting Tips

With shorter days and colder nights, it’s easy to feel sluggish. But don’t let winter fatigue win!

Grab a warm cup of your favourite drink and read on for 9 quick, fun tip energy boosting ideas to help keep your energy up all winter long.

1. Seek Sunlight; Soak up as much daylight as you can! Even a 15-minute walk outside can boost your mood and energy. Rug up and get out there!

2. Eat Right; Fuel up with energy-boosting foods like fruits, veggies, and lean proteins. Don’t forget to hydrate – water is key!

3. Prioritise Sleep; Good sleep is your best friend. Aim for 7-9 hours, keep your room cool, and avoid screens before bed.

4. Lose The Snooze; Hitting the snooze button does nothing to improve your energy, in fact, just the opposite. So move that alarm clock across the room if you have to, set it at the time you really need to get up and start your day right!

5. Stay Active; Move your body to shake off the winter blahs – dance at home like nobody’s watching! Try a new indoor workout like yoga, boxing or a spin class.

6. Breaks Matter; Don’t skip breaks at work. Ensure you have a stretch or take deep breaths to help recharge.  Give your eyes regular breaks from screen time too!

7. Crank Up The Tunes; Whether you’re in the kitchen, living room or in your car, find some fun, energising music and crank it up! Extra credit; Sing along!

8. Stay Connected; Keep in touch with friends and family regularly with phone calls, video calls, SMS or Snapchat. Getting together in person whether, one-on-one or in groups, can lift your spirits.

9. Practice Self-Care; Make time for what you love – read a good book, take a bath, or try mindfulness. Self-care is essential.

Embrace these tips to stay energised and beat winter fatigue. Stay active, stay connected, and keep the winter blues at bay!
