10 FREE WAYS TO BRING MORE ENERGY TO YOUR LIFE

While cleaning up my bookshelf, I came across Jan issue of Women Weekly. I stopped the cleaning and sunk myself into my cosy coach. Browsing through old magazines is something fun, for me.

Old magazines always have sentimental value & I tend to keep them as long as I can; until I have to clear up the space for newer issues. Normally, I will tear out the artiles I want and keep them in a ring file before I send the magazines for recycling.

I summarized below from Jan issue and add in some of my personal tips -- 10 FREE WAYS TO BRING MORE ENERGY TO YOUR LIFE

1. Dress up! when you looks good, smell good; you definitely feel good. Also, nicely dressed can lift your confidence level. (Lynn's tips: Looks good and smell good doesn't need to be costly. Keep your hair clean and neat, wear clothes and perfumes according to your age as well as your job is the most important after all. ) 2. Exercise Exercise improves your blood circulation and higher inflow of oxygen will make you feel less fatigue but more alert. And, you will looks good as your muscles are firmer and healthier. (Lynn's exercise tips: Try to workout with the aid of video. I personally found Cheng Door Yin is the best instructors among all. You will see your thighs and arms getting firmer after few sessions of workout. You may not need to follow through the whole session. Stop whenever you feel tired. Slowly increase the time by 2 mins in every next sessions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiQ6TR5s-co&list=PL859q82WcKIpqsenUsBx0P8395n0lDOD4 3. Sleep well It's very important to have a deep good night sleep. Your body recharge during your sleep. If the process doesn't goes well, you may have hard time the next day.

Divert your attention, try to do some other thing, take a cup of drink or just as simple as walk away can instantly cool yourself down)   7.
