Feeling Energy Depleted?

 

This picture was in an email... source unknown.

Are you feeling like my family and friends are feeling?  Tired, empty, and no energy?  It seems to be going around in circles of acquaintances.

What is causing this lack of energy?  Part of the source is the energy dive we all took from the covid-19 crisis in our areas.  Part of the source is worrying about elderly family and friends, and losing people you love.  Part of the source is that the time demands from work, that is, from inconsiderate bosses who refuse to fill vacant spots on the team and take the workload and dump it on the remaining team members.  Part of the source is loss of movement... not being able to go freely anywhere you want when you want.  It is a lot of stuff to deal with!

How do you get your battery recharged?  The simple answer is stop working and take a vacation.  If you do not work, then you need to find a safe place for you to go to recharge.  A walk in a park or along a river.  An overnight in a hotel with breakfast served bedside.  Maybe it is a spa day.  Or, maybe you need to go for a short run.  The message is that you need to change up what you are doing so that you forget about everything that is weighing you down.  One of my friends started going to the Humane Society and walking one or two dogs around lunch time.  She said it did her a world of good.  

Whatever you decide to do, remember, there is nothing broken in you.  It is happening to everyone.

Blessings.
