How can I regain energy quickly?
Thanks for asking.
As the summer holiday season draws to a close, ask yourself this.
Did you manage to get as much rest as you would have liked?
A lot of people out there would say no.
Perhaps their holiday wasn't actually restful at all, or they didn't even get a chance to go away.
American internal medicine physician, Dr Saundra Dalton-Smith, has dedicated a lot of research towards the issue of chronic fatigue.
In 2017, she released a book entitled Sacred Rest, which will go on to be a bestseller.
She asserted that there are seven different types of rest that we need to fully recharge our batteries.
Now that might sound like a lot of different types, but as we go through them, you're probably going to recognize that they're pretty intuitive, and identifying each of them clearly will help you cultivate them in your daily life for the most effective energy recovery possible.
What are the seven different types of rest then?
Physical rest is the most obvious.
It's related to sleep and involves establishing a routine with a regular bedtime and wake-up time.
Physical rest also includes exercise, stretching, and flexibility work to release tension.
As for mental rest, it consists of taking breaks from work and potentially practicing breathing exercises to clear the mind.
Then comes sensory rest, which means disconnecting from the environment and stimuli, such as our smartphones and the constant notifications that come with.
Creative rest is related to feelings of wonder.
Walks in nature.
Encourage this, as does having a calming home environment in which you feel comfortable.
You can also make time for cultural and artistic breaks like going to a museum, reading a book or gardening.
That still sounds like a lot to think about and do.
The idea isn't necessarily to implement absolutely everything.
You're right that that could easily get draining and end up being counterproductive.
It's more about taking steps in that direction and finding more balance in life.
Gradually, these self-care moments can become rituals, even if they take just a few minutes at a time.
For example, emotional rest simply involves listening to your feelings and sharing your emotions.
It's easy to get caught up in always wanting to satisfy other people's needs, never saying no.
But it's important to identify your own needs and make sure they're not neglected.
In other words, you need to prioritize yourself.
Social rest is also linked to our emotions, because it involves being aware of relationships that uplift us and those that bring us down.
Spending quality time with someone who nurtures you is beneficial for your mental health.
On the other hand, you should avoid people who always wear you out.
What does the last pillar, spiritual rest, consist of?
In the words of Dalton Smith, it's about engaging in something greater than oneself.
That could mean getting involved in a charitable activity, helping a person in need or contributing to a community cause, for example.
Here, the magic words are altruism and kindness, but also connection, interaction, and self-esteem.
Putting these different types of rest into practice gradually establishes better recovery and therefore a full and complete energy recharge.
