What are energy boosters?

Energy boosters are actions that create an overall positive energy balance. In other words, after we perform energy boosting activities we have more energy. Some obvious energy boosters are:

Eating healthy foods and supplements (especially lean proteins and fresh fruits and vegetables)
Drinking sufficient water to stay hydrated (on average 64 fluid ounces per day depending upon body weight)
Getting sufficient sleep (for mosWt people 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 hours are required on a regular basis)

Moderate exercise (aerobic exercise, strength training, and stretching in varying combinations depending on your goals, 3-7 times per week)
Meditation (15-30 minutes a day reduces tension holding patterns, increases circulation and oxygen uptake, and increases positive brain chemistry, among many other benefits)
Doing what we love ( when we participate in activities we enjoy, we increase our enthusiasm and energy level)
What are energy drainers?

Energy drainers consume more energy than they provide. We feel more tired when we do these things consistently or over a long period of time. Some common energy drainers are:

Eating excess sugars and starchy carbohydrates (excess sugars and carbs put us on an energy rollercoaster)
Drinking excessive amounts of caffeinated or alcoholic beverages (these lead to de-hydration)
Smoking (reduces oxygen uptake, among other negative effects)
Insufficient sleep (our body needs sleep for physical, emotional, and mental recovery)
Being sedentary (the body is made to move and requires physical activity for oxygen and nutrient delivery, toxin removal, and to function properly)
Overworking (non-stop and excessive activity leads to stress and adrenal exhaustion)
Doing activities because we feel forced to, not because we enjoy them.
