Ready To Kickstart The New Year? Here Are Three Easy Ways To Unleash Your Natural Energy

It’s a bit of a conundrum, isn’t it? New Year is when we think about how we want to spend the year ahead, the things we want to achieve, and the lifestyle we want to follow, and we want to feel all amped up and optimistic. But New Year is also in the depths of winter, when it’s cold and wet and dark, and all we want to do is wrap up warm, curl up on the sofa, and stay cosy.

Well, as we make our way into 2022, it’s time to shake off those winter doldrums and release our natural energy supplies. There’s a lot we want to do with our 2022, and we’re going feel great while we’re doing it.

Check out these three simple ways to power up your Get Up And Go this winter and all year long.

Let There Be Light

Even though the days are gradually getting longer again, they’re still far too short for our liking, and the lack of sunlight means that our bodies are producing more melatonin, which is one of the things making you feel sleepy.

Stave off that drowsiness by making sure that you open the curtains and blinds as soon as you wake up and keep them open during the daylight hours. If you can, do your best to get outside in the natural during the day, even if it’s just a walk around the block or to the shops. Seize any chance you can get to enjoy those short daylight hours that winter gives us!

There are also lamps specifically designed to help with concerns like Seasonal Affective Disorder, which give you a powerful dose of bright light and trigger the brain to release serotonin aka the feel-good hormone aka just what we need to feel energised.

Move It

Okay, okay, we know that exercising might be the last thing you want to do, and finding the motivation to do it is more likely to harder than the workout itself, but doing exercise – no matter how gentle or intense – is a sure-fire way to get your energy levels up. Plus, a late-afternoon exercise stint is proven to hold off that early-evening fatigue and also help you get a good night’s sleep (which will also help with your energy in the morning!).

There are lots of apps and online videos that you can use to do at-home workouts if outdoor isn’t going to be an option, and starting a workout plan with a friend is a great way to keep each other motivated and committed!

Release your natural energy with Spatone® iron-rich water

Spatone® is an everyday iron supplement for “every body” that helps you to release natural energy from your diet while supporting a healthy immune system. Iron is an essential mineral for the body, and is vital for many of it's complex processes and functions, however we don’t naturally produce it, and while people may eat iron-rich foods, the thing that they are consumed with can inhibit the amount of iron that is absorbed (for example, wine or tea or cereals), therefore adding an iron supplement like Spatone® is a brilliant way to ensure that your body is getting the iron it needs to function at its best.
