As I engage with many of my clients amidst this festive whirl, fatigue often emerges as their initial sentiment. However, it need not define this season. With the right tools at your disposal, conquering fatigue becomes an extraordinary feat. Here, I share my key strategies and tips to triumph over that festive weariness.
Morning Ritual Power: Kickstart your day with invigorating rituals—be it meditation, or a brisk morning walk. These practices set a positive tone for the day ahead.
Herbal Energy Allies: Consider herbal teas or supplements like ginseng (200-400 mg daily) or maca root powder (1.5-3 grams daily) for a caffeine-free revitalisation. Cordyceps, a mushroom-based supplement, can also offer an energy boost. Aim for around 1,000-3,000 mg of cordyceps daily to support your energy levels naturally.
Activate with Movement: Engage in light exercises or gentle stretches to stimulate energy and release various mood-boosting endorphins. Fun fact: Did you know there are more than 20 types of endorphins in your body? Moderation is key for lasting vitality.
Minimise Sugar Intake: Opt for natural, low-glycemic alternatives to reduce the impact on your body's blood sugar levels. The rollercoaster effect of sugar on your blood sugar can trigger unnecessary stress responses in the body, causing surges in cortisol levels that disrupt balance and well-being.
Embrace Gratitude Journaling: Take a moment for gratitude! Reflecting on blessings can elevate mood and boost energy. Try to see the bright side of any perceived ordeals. Spend a few minutes daily to journal your gratitude for a magical uplift.
Awaken Energy Flow: Delve into ancient Egyptian hand gestures and mantra. By connecting fingers in specific ways and utilising sound vibrations, this practice interacts with subtle energy channels. The combination of movement and sound is believed to facilitate energy movement and balance within the body, promoting a sense of harmony and vitality.

Amidst the festive hustle, self-care takes centre stage. Let's welcome this season with rejuvenated spirits, brimming with energy and zest!
Here's to a holiday season packed with endless energy and joy!
