MENTAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT tips » The myth of relaxation // Why are so many people often stressed and tired? And why don't our current methods of relaxation really help us to feel better? And how to manage your energy in a way that you can be productive and have success, but without feeling exhausted? You're going to get the answers in this video :) Instead of talking about time management, let's talk about energy management for a sec. How to not be tired and stressed, and how to work on health, self care AND personal development. In our current society, success almost always equals being very busy, experiencing stress and feeling drained and exhausted. But hey, it's worth it. Or....... is it actually?
As a minimalist, I apply the same principles of minimalism to my energy. I don't want to spend it on things that are not important, or that I don't enjoy. Of course this is not something you can control 100%. We all have to do things we don't like every now and then. But when you're being very mindful of how and when you spend your energy (much like being mindful of how and when you're spending money) you get to some valuable insights.
Our mental energy is kind of like a battery, because it does have a maximum capacity and it is a finite resource. It gets depleted and then recharged again. There are a few tricks that we can apply to make sure our battery levels don't get drained completely, making it necessary to recharge for a loooong time before feeling energized again. If you can apply these techniques in your every day life, you can get more done, and feel better doing them.
A quick research gave me insight into how many people are feeling on a daily basis. Search terms like 'how not to be tired right now' and 'how not to be tired in the morning' are a clear indicator that people could use some mental energy manipulation, or a kinder phrase: mental energy management. So let's talk about it.
What things do you do to relax? And do these things actually help you to recharge your mental energy battery? Share in the comments!
Lots of love,
