Fatigue: The Juggle

Fatigue to me is feeling drained, lethargic, and just overall low energy. It comes and goes. Myself and a lot of other people experience it more in the winter. I think it is because of the lack of sun. 

Once you have fatigue it is harder to get motivated. This is why you need to push past it to grow. Like I have said before. There are lots of things that can dissuade you and make it hard to find your resilience. 

The main goal for me is to not get “stuck in this”. I use exercise to get my body activated. Coffee doesn't fix fatigue. That is a temporary fix. That will not get you the holistic lifestyle. 

Your diet also comes into play when you are feeling fatigued. You can ask yourself; Am I getting enough nutrients? Fiber? And you can’t forget the vitamins you need like, C, E, and all the Bs. Water is also the nutrient for life so it can not be left out. 
​

So all this said, next time you are feeling fatigued ask yourself what can I do and what could I be missing. Check in with yourself. When I say “check in” I mean listen to your body. It might not be what your brain is telling you it wants; but what your body really needs.

I find that I need to push beyond my body by just doing the activity. If I just focus on the task I want to accomplish I am more prone to starting and completing my goals when I just go

I totally agree with this! Especially part where what we eat affecting our energy levels. That reminded me of fast food and how bad it usually makes me feel afterward. However, having a healthy meal makes me feel more awake and lighter!

Very good insight about the lack of sun and diet contributing to fatigue. For me, being out in nature is rejuvinating - going for a walk or hike and getting fresh air and Vitamin D!
