Never felt energy highs and now very stressed, help.

[mdelano123]

Hi,

I am writing because I need help with my energy levels and stress levels, I have been Raw for A few years and I have never felt extreme energy highs that I so desperately want to feel. I feel like I must be doing something wrong. I really need more energy now that I am in college so I can get more work done. Also I am really stressed out by my workload and that completely saps my energy levels. help would be really appreciated.

thanks

Sometimes I've realized that when it comes to stress it's not just what I eat that affects me, it's how I treat myself.

Are you taking time to relax and refocus during your day? Are you getting enough sleep?

I would suggest taking mini-rests when you can. Long hot showers do me a world of good. It's peaceful and no one will bother you there. :o Take the time to get a manicure, pedicure or massage. It's all about caring for yourself.

If you are a Christian find some time to pray, if you aren't perhaps meditation just for the calming affect it will have on your spirit. We are body, soul and mind. If you are working your body, using your mind at school and not refreshing your soul, that isn't good for anyone.

After that, you eat raw, healthy and enjoy.

If you still aren't feeling energized...this may just be a season of your life that you are stretching. Cut yourself some slack and breathe deeply knowing you are doing your very best and that is good enough.

Being energized "Like Others" may not be for you in this season. It's ok. :)

As ShelShel said. One cannot 'eat one's way into heaven'. There are MANY other aspects to one's life. The physical energy we feel is a cascading effect that also comes from good thoughts, good inner talk, stable emotions, powerful friendship with the now, intimacy and directness with friends and family, powerful and passionate life goals/dreams, and other healthy physical practices (like exercise, stretching, sunlight, breathing, fresh air, etc.)

-If you are DOING what you are MOST passionate about...you WILL find the energy you need to do it! These are my opinions. :) What do you think?
