7 tips for more energy in the workday<\/h2>\n

The dark season has arrived and the shorter days can be felt in many people’s energy levels and moods. We feel more tired and our ability to concentrate probably decreases a little too. This can be hard on motivation and job satisfaction. <\/p>\n

But there IS help to be found – and quite easily.
\nWe have gathered 7 great tips to get more energy and boost energy and job satisfaction.
\nIf you just implement a few of them in your habits, there’s a good chance you’ll notice the difference pretty quickly.<\/p>\n

1. exercise and movement during working hours.<\/strong>
\nExercise during working hours provides an energy boost… and we’re not talking about actual \u201cexercise\u201d. Just a few minutes of active movement involving the major muscle groups has a huge effect on mental and physical energy. Blood rushes and oxygenates the body and brain… and some of the restorative hormones (especially adrenaline) are released. Our scientific project \u201c4 minutes a day\u201d has shown the health benefits (both psychological and physiological) of just 240 seconds! of exercise during the day. <\/p>\n

2. Diet and nutrition at work.
\n<\/strong>Eat more fiber. Preferably first thing in the morning. It stabilizes blood sugar levels and provides longer-lasting energy. Cut down on sugar… it often has the opposite effect on energy levels after a short time, so unless you’re facing a performance that requires extra physical energy in a short time, avoid sugar. And remember to get fruit and vegetables from the workplace health scheme if possible.
\nVitamin C and B2 contribute to a stable metabolism and better energy levels. It is also important to be aware of iron levels, which are all too often too low… supplements can be a solution. <\/p>\n

3. Fluid intake is important for a good working day.
\n<\/strong>The body consists of up to 70% water, while the brain consists of 85% water. Drink about 2 liters of fluid per day – preferably water. That’s about 8 glasses throughout the day. And more if you move a lot or exercise! Research has shown that a fluid loss of just 1.36% negatively affects mood, concentration and headache frequency by over 20%! <\/p>\n

4. Get fresh air during the working day.
\n<\/strong>We are designed to be outdoors. And no matter how good you think your indoor environment is, fresh air is necessary for good health and energy levels. The lungs detect the fresh breath and kick-start a series of physiological responses that boost brain recovery and improve mood. Go outside during your lunch break – or ride your bike to work if possible. <\/p>\n

5. Breathing techniques at work.
\n<\/strong>The \u201chealing breath\u201d can help the brain and body cells rebuild themselves. If you manage to sit calmly and upright with plenty of room for your lungs, so you can breathe slowly, calmly and deeply all the way \u201cdown into your stomach\u201d and exhale slowly through your mouth… then you help the O2\/CO2 balance to restore itself etc. A few minutes of breathing training every day can make a big difference to your mental and physical well-being. <\/p>\n

6. Natural light energizes the workplace.
\n<\/strong>The human body needs natural light to function. When the eye detects daylight, the body’s secretion of melatonin, the hormone that makes us tired, is reset. Artificial light doesn’t have the same effect, so during the dark season it’s important to take the opportunity to get out in the light (even if it’s gray) and get a boost, and it also helps you sleep better at night when you’ve had enough light during the day. However, the blue light from tablets, screens and smartphones confuses the brain – which means that using them too close to bedtime can disrupt sleep and negatively affect energy. There are special light therapy bulbs that can be installed at your workplace to help. <\/p>\n

7. Sleep for a better workday.
\n<\/strong>Try to keep regular bedtimes. This means getting up and going to bed at the same time every day, as far as possible. Don’t disturb the body’s rhythm too much, it destroys the brain’s ability to regulate energy. And again, stay away from screen time in the last hour before bedtime. Breathing techniques to better fall asleep are also effective. <\/p>\n
