An energized morning

Feeling tired when the alarm goes off in the morning? Having a hard time staying awake during the day? Well, there is tricks to overcome these habits.

1. Sleep is very important! Make sure you get atleast 6 hours of sleep every night, some of us needs more sleep but try to not sleep more than 8 hours per night. 

2. A few deep breaths first thing when you wake up will wake you up! Fill your lungs with as much air as possible. This will give your brain and muscles oxygen and a kick start. 

3. Stretch your muscles out! Try some easy and simple poses in bed and feel how your body is getting softer and less tens. Perfect start for a perfect day!

The pose above will help with your blood circulation and will stimulate your energy levels. 
Do it for about a minute and take deep breaths as ypu do it. 

4. Drink a glass of water! During your sleep you sweat almost as much as you do when you're awake so make sure to dehydrate your body. (Read about Electrolyte enhanced water below.)

5. Finish your shower with cold water, as cold as you can stand. This will make your heart beat rise and wake all your senses up. 

6. A breakfast with alot of protein is the base of the days energy. Oatmeal with fresh fruit and a protein shake is fantastic! 

Try and feel the difference!
