MNA Life Style Desk: Feel groggy when you wake up every morning? Here are a few quick tips, guaranteed for an energetic morning, reported news agency.
Breathe deep
Deep breathing has many benefits; that’s why it is an important part of yoga. Metabolically, it brings more oxygen into your body, satisfying every organ’s need and boosting immunity. Plus, it stimulates nerve relaxation and clears away stress, fatigue and depression. Set aside a couple of minutes before going to bed and practice deep breathing. You’re now more likely to get up feeling energetic than usual.
Hydrate
Water makes up for a considerable portion of the body, and when deprived of it, the body reacts in different ways. Be sure to drink at least six glasses of water a day. It aids the flushing away of toxins and helps maintain the osmotic balance of the body.
Multitask
Try to fit in relaxation meditation into your busy morning schedule. You can do it while having a shower, or while setting up the breakfast table. Visualize every single muscle of your body in a relaxed state, working your way in any particular sequence. Doing this type of meditation every day makes you feel more relaxed and composed, ready to take on the day with full vigor.
Eat early
Dinner should ideally be the smallest meal of the day, and had at least an hour before bed. Eating just before going to bed induces fat burning that takes place when you’re asleep, which makes you more groggy and lazy the next day.
