Try Diaphragmatic Breathing - In Chinese Medicine, energy is called "qi" (pronounced "chi"), and one of the most important ways we make qi is by breathing deeply. Stress, poor posture, a snug waistline, and habit are some of the reasons why our breath doesn't make it down to the bottom of our lungs. Diaphragmatic breathing, also known as belly breathing, is a simple way we can increase our qi energy and improve our stamina.

Take a Hike...

While it may seem as if moving about when you feel exhausted is the quickest route to feeling more exhausted, the opposite is true. Experts say that increasing physical activity particularly walking increases energy.

"I like walking because it's accessible, easy to do, doesn't need training or equipment and you can do it anywhere," says Rita Redberg, MD, science advisor to the American Heart Association's "Choose To Move" program.

In experiments conducted by Robert Thayer, PhD, at California State University, a brisk 10-minute walk not only increased energy, but the effects lasted up to two hours. And when the daily 10-minute walks continued for three weeks, overall energy levels and mood were lifted.

People tend to lose energy after lunchtime or when they arrive home after a long day of work. One way to solve this is to get a boost of energy.

Vitamin B6
B6 helps release energy from the food that you eat and store glucose in particular. So take a B6 vitamin after each meal so that any stored food will convert into energy more readily. This will work best if you have a significant B6 deficiency. www.brainbodyboost.com
