The Top "Quick" Energy Booster

Hey! Angela here, your friendly neighbourhood health coach.


Today I’m going to talk about one of the FASTEST ways you can get a quick shot of energy during the day.


Before I get into the details, if you don’t already know me, I help women over 40 rebalance their hormones, get their mojo back and lose a bit of weight in the process so they can feel like themselves again and love the skin they’re in.


Ok, let’s get into it. One of the BEST ways to get more fast energy –– especially if you sit a lot for work –– is to get up and MOVE!


I know this will sound counterproductive but it’s true: Spending a little energy can actually help your body create MORE of it.


It doesn’t have to be something grand. It can be something as simple as going for a short walk or turning on some music for a quick dance session.


Here are three ways moving can help you:


First, it helps your body create energy at the cellular level – in the mitochondria of your cells. You can think of mitochondria as being your body’s mini energy plants.

Exercise can help them create MORE energy immediately… and regular exercise can actually create MORE mitochondria.


That’s a Win-Win!


Second, moving your body boosts oxygen circulation, which helps your body use its energy more efficiently.


And third, your body releases more feel-good hormones when you exercise, helping to boost your mood and your focus!


The key to HOW to workout is to listen to your body!


This does NOT have to be a high-intensity session - the idea is to just move at a low to moderate pace for 10-20 minutes. It could even be throwing the ball for your dog.


Who knows ... after a short walk, you might even WANT to do something more :-)


But that is not the goal of this movement session - the goal is to just bring you a little shot of energy.


Sometimes all you need is just a little boost.


So the takeaway here is to make a conscious effort to get up and move more frequently … even if it’s just for 5 minutes.


And if you’re ready to take your fitness/wellness to the next level, we can help.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go for a walk.


Thanks for reading! Talk with you again soon.
