Wise Woman Ways to Boost Your Energy
Introduction
Feeling fatigued is something every woman has experienced at some point in her life. However, for many, this exhaustion is constant. Factors like menopause, new motherhood, irregular work hours, chronic anxiety, and financial stress can all contribute to persistent fatigue.
Stimulants are a common go-to solution, but they provide only temporary energy boosts, ultimately leaving you more drained. While coffee or soft drinks may seem helpful, they deplete your body’s minerals, weaken core energy, and disrupt restorative sleep. Even herbal stimulants like cayenne and guarana fall short in promoting long-term health.
Thankfully, there are healthier, sustainable ways to boost your energy. Drawing from "New Menopausal Years the Wise Woman Way" and the wisdom of my Wise Woman friends, here's how you can find effective relief for your weariness.
Embrace Rest and Recovery
“Fall into my arms and sleep,” invites Grandmother Growth. "Surrender to rest. Let go of your worries and give your weariness to me."
Recognize the Need for Rest
Severe fatigue signals a deep need for rest. Request a day off from family and friends, and take it. If needed, retreat to a space where you can truly relax.
Be Gentle with Yourself
Major life changes like puberty, motherhood, and menopause require immense energy. Grant yourself grace by taking 60-second breaks every hour, breathing deeply, or enjoying a glass of herbal infusion. Make time for daily meditation or naps, and indulge in weekly self-care activities, like a hot bath or a solitary walk.
A monthly massage, even through bartering, can release tension and enhance your sleep quality, fueling an upward spiral into greater vitality.
Adjust Your Standards
"Lower your standards." It’s a tough lesson, but liberating. Prioritize activities that energize you, such as gardening or a walk, over mundane chores. Identify what drains your energy and find ways to reduce its impact.
Appreciate Fatigue
Fatigue, laziness, and procrastination can be teachers. They guide you toward efficiency, prevent risky decisions, and help you find creative solutions. Embrace them for allowing you time to rejuvenate.
Nourishing Tips for Energy
Seaweed
Incorporate seaweeds like kelp, wakame, and kombu into your diet weekly to nourish your nervous, immune, and hormonal systems.
Roots
Gain grounding energy from roots. Consider tinctures of ginseng, Siberian ginseng, or dandelion roots, taking 10-20 drops with meals.
Addressing "Tired Blood"
Boost your iron levels with molasses or yellow dock tincture taken throughout the day.
Get Moving
Movement attracts energy. Simple exercises like twisting your upper body or gently rocking your pelvis can invigorate you.
Green Energy
Deep green plants like nettle provide substantial energy. A daily cup of nettle infusion strengthens your adrenals and immune system.
How to Make Nettle Infusion:
- Add one ounce of dried nettle leaf to a quart jar.
- Fill with boiling water and cap tightly.
- Steep for at least four hours.
- Strain and drink, refrigerating leftovers for up to 36 hours.
Oatstraw
Oatstraw infusion is ideal for approaching days, especially when emotional turbulence has drained you. Prepare it like the nettle infusion and enjoy it in various ways.
Food for Thought
When too tired to eat properly, fatigue worsens. Ensure at least one nutritious meal a day, and have quality snacks regularly. St. Joan's wort tincture may help relax nerves and enhance energy. Ginger and cinnamon in tea form can also be invigorating but may trigger hot flashes.
Fatty foods high in vitamin E, such as avocados and sunflower seeds, support energy levels, while B vitamins from whole grains and sweet potatoes are essential. Adequate potassium, iron, and iodine from sources like celery and seaweeds are crucial to combating fatigue.
Foods to Avoid
Some women find raw or frozen foods increase fatigue, as Traditional Chinese Medicine suggests that they require extra energy for digestion. Focus on nourishing cooked meals instead.
Avoid overly marketed supplements like wheat grass juice and algae, which don’t match the benefits of a simple nettle infusion.
“Energy-producing” substances like coffee or excessive chocolate may provide short-lived highs but result in deeper fatigue later.
Conclusion
“Rest your head down,” soothes Grandmother Growth. "Let the earth’s energy sustain you. Allow yourself to be enough. Let go."
