A person’s energy is formed, for the most part, precisely from his own thoughts and specific actions. Accordingly, in order to effectively manage your own energy, you need to direct your thoughts in the right direction and act in a way that benefits not only yourself, but also the people around you. In this article we will look in detail at useful tips that will greatly help you with this.
Tip #1: Review your entire life.
Start to completely reconsider your entire life in order not only to analyze it correctly, but also to decide what you want to radically change or improve in it. As a rule, a person’s attitude towards life gradually forms a certain energy in him, thanks to which he can achieve any success. In other words, if a person constantly strives to make his life as good as possible, then he gradually develops positive energy, which he directs to improving the quality of his life. Thus, a person effectively manages his own energy.
Human energy management exercise channels. Palm exercises
1. Shoulders are freely lowered down, arms are bent at the elbow joints, brought towards the body and slightly pressed. The forearms are perpendicular to the body, the palms are parallel to each other, the fingers are slightly apart. The forearms make light, smooth oscillatory movements (in a plane perpendicular to the body), maintaining a feeling of energetic connection, and gradually the palms are spread shoulder-width apart (at the distance of energy sensitivity), and then brought back to their original position. All hand joints are fixed without tension.
When spreading the palms, make two oscillations inward, and then one, wider one, to the sides. When approaching, on the contrary: two to the sides and one - more sweeping - inward.
2. The palms are turned crosswise in relation to each other and bent as if a ball was placed in them, the fingers are spread apart. The ball puts significant pressure on the lower palm. Two or three oscillatory movements with the arms lowering under the weight of the ball down relative to the other hand. When passing the ball from hand to hand, the palms are turned so that the fingertips of one hand pass over the fingertips of the other.
To increase the effectiveness of the training, it is recommended to mentally imagine that between your hands there is a ball of poplar fluff or a children's balloon filled with water. When moving the “tossing the ball”, you should make light, smooth movements in order to “prevent” the destruction of the “ball”, thoughts (psychic energy) at the fingertips.
The sensations that arise when performing this exercise are remembered by the subconscious and subsequently evoked automatically if desired. Of course, the given energy exercises do not exhaust the possible scope of exercises. Exercises can be supplemented and modified in accordance with the assigned tasks. When performing them, it is important to comply with a number of conditions.
The exercises are performed slowly and with concentration, until a clear and distinct energy sensation is obtained. The exercise is considered completed if a clear sensation arises quickly and distinctly. It is necessary to persistently achieve results, otherwise the task cannot be considered completed. The exercise system is built on the principle of moving from simple to complex, from easy to difficult, and it requires repetition of each exercise during daily training.
Tip #2: Control your feelings and emotions
Once you have complete control over your feelings and emotions, you can begin to effectively manage your own energy. Do not forget that feelings and emotions constantly form a certain energy that a person can correctly distribute. In other words, if a person controls his emotions, then he does not waste his energy, but directs it to the implementation of any of his plans. As a result, over time, a person manages to manage his energy much more effectively.
Energy system
Esotericists imagine the human energy system as a chain consisting of centers (or chakras) and channels. All this cannot be seen, but with a certain setting you can feel it. Energy flows circulating throughout the human body provide information exchange between the internal and external world.
In various esoteric practices of the world, human energy is called differently: prana, shi, qi. However, this does not change the essence of this phenomenon. For example, in Indian yoga, bioenergy channels are called Nadis. there are more than half a million of them in the human body. But the main channels are Sushumna, Pingala and Ida.
The first one is the largest. On the physical plane, it corresponds to the spinal column, which runs inside the spine and provides the activity of the entire body.
Tip #3: Become a positive and optimistic person
Become a positive and optimistic person to attract only positive energy into your life. As a rule, optimistic people manage to properly manage their own energy, directing it towards the implementation of their plans. Also, positive people manage to create positive energy around themselves much faster, thanks to which they can make plans for their future and strive to realize them. Accordingly, such an attitude helps to achieve the desired results in life, thereby making it better every day.
Six human bodies
It is known that the concept of “energy body” includes six shells. This:
- Essential (exactly repeats the physical body of a person, extends several centimeters beyond its contours. Physical health depends on this shell).
- Astral (has the same characteristics as the ethereal. Only the area of its meaning lies in desires, emotions, passions).
- Mental (also repeats the physical body of a person, goes 10-20 cm beyond it, is the embodiment of thoughts and will).
- Casual (or karmic) (the esoteric direction is of the opinion of reincarnation, that is, the reincarnation of a person in other lives. So, in the karmic shell, information about actions is accumulated. It controls the thoughts and desires of a person).
- The shell of individuality (has an oval shape, extends beyond the physical body by half a meter).
- Atmic (body of the Absolute) (it is also called the “golden egg”, in which all previous shells are placed. It connects a person with the Higher Powers).
All shells are connected with each other and with the physical body energetically. Thus, human health and fate are also closely interconnected.
Tip #4: Get rid of negative thoughts and start thinking positively
When managing your own energy, you should never forget that it still needs to be properly formed. Therefore, completely get rid of all negative thoughts and start thinking only positively in order to attract positive energy into your life. Remember that forming negative thoughts wastes a lot of energy. When positive thoughts are formed, energy, on the contrary, begins to increase, which gives rise to a person’s desire for active actions aimed at improving his life.

Tip #6: Get rid of bad habits
In many cases, a person's bad habits prevent him from distributing his energy effectively. Also, such habits can negatively affect the formation of human energy. In other words, bad habits prevent a person from generating positive energy. As a result, over time, a person simply stops striving for anything in his life. To prevent this, you need to gather your strength and begin to gradually get rid of all your bad habits. Thus, you will not only be able to manage your own energy much more effectively, but you will also be able to significantly change your life for the better.
What affects energy levels?
Human energy is a heterogeneous and unstable phenomenon. It can change under the influence of external factors and negative emotions. The density of energy flows is not constant, but always tends to a favorable state. This is how people who love life often survive in difficult conditions, where people with a different vector of energy die.
The process of contemplation (awareness of the beauty and greatness of the world, touching art) significantly increases a person’s energy level. Expanding your horizons and acquiring new skills also increases your potential in life.
It is very important that a person’s energy and material flows are in balance; this guarantees harmonious development. In general, balance is the basis of proper life.
Tip No. 8. Create the right environment around you
A person’s environment always plays an important role in the formation of his energy. Therefore, you need to start creating the right environment around yourself and protect yourself from communicating with bad and dishonest people. As a result, you will not only be able to create positive energy around you, but you will also effectively manage your energy, which, in turn, will allow you to achieve any success in life.
Energy centers
Eastern practices describe that there are seven energy centers, or chakras, in the human body. They are located along the body from the perineum to the crown of the head.
- The first chakra is Muladhara. It is located in the groin area. It stores energy that lasts a lifetime and is designed not only for a person, but also for those around him. Most often, energy exchange occurs unconsciously, involuntarily.
- The second chakra is Svadhisthana. It is the center of pleasure, sexual attraction and desire. It is located at the level of the internal reproductive organs, two fingers below the navel. The positive energy of this chakra characterizes reproductive function and the desire to procreate. In a negative sense, this is a manifestation of lust and concern.
- The third chakra is Manipura. This center is located at the level of the solar plexus and is responsible for the life will and energy of a person. The correct functioning of this chakra is manifested in responsibility for oneself and for others, determination, and independence. When a block appears in this center, a person experiences self-doubt and fears.
- The fourth chakra is Anahata. It is located in the area of the heart and controls human feelings and love. The latter can be connected not only with another person, but also with the Cosmos, with God. The incorrect functioning of this center manifests itself in feelings of guilt, shame about the past, and depression.
- The fifth chakra is Vishuddha, the throat center. Accordingly, it controls a person’s sociability, speech, creative activity and self-realization. Blocks in this chakra manifest themselves in mediocrity, conservative views of a person, and lack of psychological flexibility.
- The sixth chakra is Ajna. It is located in the center of the forehead between the eyebrows. For its ability to evoke visual images, it is called the “third eye.” This center is responsible for human mental abilities, memory and willpower. Fanaticism, clinging to other people's ideas, dogmas, mental limitations, lack of desire for self-knowledge - all this indicates improper functioning of the chakra.
- The seventh chakra is Sahasrara. It is located on the top of the human head. This center accumulates spirituality, contemplation and unity with the Supreme Spirit. As a rule, atheists have a block in this chakra.
All centers are interconnected. The correct functioning of the human chakras and energy flows circulating freely provide a complete life system. And the higher the volume and density of these flows, the stronger the energy.
Tip #10: Live in the present and shape your future.
Of course, you shouldn’t forget about your past, but at the same time, you don’t need to constantly dwell on it. Start living in the present and shape your ideal future to attract positive and positive energy, thanks to which you can achieve success. As a rule, a person who thinks about the future and constantly makes plans for it gradually directs his energy towards their implementation, which helps him achieve the desired results in his life. Therefore, to begin to effectively manage your own energy, you need to live in the present and look to the future.
In conclusion, it is worth adding that effective management of your own energy will allow you to achieve certain heights in life. The main thing is to overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles along the way in order to make your life better every day.

Energy and Self. How to manage your energy
Energy laws
1. The law of energy and life
Without energy, life is impossible. Life and health is the presence of energy at all levels: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual.
2. Law of Mind Energy
"Energy follows thought"
(ancient Indian wisdom).
“Following the mind comes energy, following energy comes the body.
(Taoist wisdom).
3. The law of the human energy field
We create an energy field that matches our spirit.
Our thoughts influence our feelings. Our prevailing, habitual feelings and thoughts determine what kind of energy we emit.
“Only that which corresponds to your inner state is attracted to you and comes from you”
(E. Tolle).
4. The law of attitude and energy
The color in which we see the world and what we highlight as important determines our life.
Positive thoughts create positive experiences, they attract favorable events and increase our energy, negative thoughts attract events with negative energy, reducing vital energy.
5. Law of choice
Human energy is characterized by quantity, but it has no direction. Energy needs to be given direction. Our energy is directed towards what we consciously or unconsciously choose to give our attention to. We choose what our energy will turn into - work, travel, communication, hobbies, we choose our lifestyle.
6. Law of multiplication
To what you give more energy, there will be more.
Positive and negative thoughts cannot be present in consciousness at the same time, and the one that we ourselves fill with our energy will be stronger. The thought to which we give our time and energy acts like a magnet, attracting its own kind. Also, habitual, constantly experienced emotions create a multiplying effect; they intensify and multiply.
7. Law of similarity
Emitted energy attracts similar energy. We receive back energy of the same quality and sign that we ourselves emit.
The energy we send into other people's lives comes back into ours. By giving another the energy of love, we increase it in ourselves. When we send the energy of hatred to someone, we bestow it on ourselves.
Send positive energy into the world, do good to people, and it will come back to you in the form of vital energy.
8. The law of the relationship between mental and physical energy
Human energy is one. Conventionally, human energy is divided into mental and physical. Psychic energy is the energy of desires, drives, and aspirations. Physical energy is associated with our body, state of health, and energy characteristics of the body.
The body and mind are closely connected, physical and mental energies also influence each other. As physical energy increases, mental energy increases and vice versa. A decrease in one type of energy can cause a drop in the level of another.
The energy of the body and the energy of the spirit are interconnected. The accumulated energy of hatred in the soul manifests itself in the body: clenched fists, tense muscles. The energy of love increases the energy of the body.
9. The law of energy declines and rises
Changes in the internal and external world of a person lead to a change in the flow of his energy. The ups and downs of life cause energy to ebb and flow. Energy comes and goes.
Let the energy flow at its own pace. Everything has its time. Everything comes and goes, everything changes, there is no need to interfere with the movement of the energy flow.
10. Law of Gratitude
Occurring events cannot give or take away our energy on their own. It all depends on how we treat them.
You can look at what is happening from two points of view: lack or abundance. If you constantly worry about what you lack, losses, including energy losses, will increase. If we focus our attention on the good things we have, the energy of gratitude will begin to attract even more positive things to us and attract new amounts of energy into our lives.
Learn to thank life for what it gives. By experiencing gratitude, we attract more energy than by asking.
11. Law of conservation of total energy
Man is an energy system full of dynamic aspirations.
Man as an energy system is located and operates among other energy systems.
It, as a local open energy system, is integrated into a larger energy system. In it, he exchanges energy equally or predominantly loses it or gains it. In general, the balance of energy systems and the conservation of total energy remain.
12. Law of conservation of spiritual energy
Something similar to the law of conservation of spiritual energy is manifesting itself in the world.
Nothing disappears anywhere.
Nothing arises in vain, not a single great thought can be lost, even if it never reaches other people; no action goes unnoticed, even if it was played out in secret. The content of every person’s life is stored and protected somewhere (according to V. Frankl).
“Nothing is born from nothing and does not disappear anywhere, one thing passes into another” (
Empedocles).
13. Law of energy balance
To maintain vigor of body and spirit, it is necessary to maintain a balance between:
– receipt
and
energy consumption.
– voltage
and
relaxation.
Alternate between loads and rest for recovery.
– negative and positive emotions.
If negative emotions prevail for a long time, this will lead to a loss of energy. We must strive for the predominance of positive emotions.
14. Law of energy optimum
For every person there is:
— optimal energy consumption, physical, mental and emotional stress and the necessary rest for recovery;
“The main rule in life is nothing in excess”
(Terence Publius).
— energy optimum nutrition;
“Let your daily food be good and sufficient, so that you have enough health and strength for tomorrow’s work.”
(Aesop).
— optimal motivation;
The motivation to do something must be an order of magnitude higher than the motivation to do nothing.
(A. Pushnoy).
“Excessive zeal often interferes with success, and extreme exertion of will harms performance.”
(Petrarch).
15. Law of energy decline
Energy decline occurs both with excessive energy consumption and with its non-use, with stagnation of energy. That is, both with an excess and with a lack of mental, emotional and physical stress.
There is an optimal level of stress, above which energy exhaustion occurs, and below which energy stagnation occurs and, as a consequence, energy decline occurs.
16. Law of Stagnant Energy
Energy stagnation occurs due to insufficient energy expenditure, due to its non-use. If there is a powerful energy surge, it must be used. During periods of rising energy, we must be active and mobile, otherwise the energy will ferment inside us. Energy that is not spent for its intended purpose can turn against us, acting destructively.
17. Law of suppressed energy
Energy is suppressed by our fears and complexes, our internal restrictions and prohibitions, feelings of guilt, debt, shame, anxiety.
Life energy increases when it is released, having previously been bound by negative feelings, fears, internal pain, anxiety, internal tension. The energy level is replenished due to the fact that it is detached from prolonged and intense negative thoughts and experiences.
18. The law of finite life energy
Life energy is given at birth.
Each person has his own limit to his energy capabilities.
Energy can be replenished over time, but its production decreases in old age. A person's ability to reproduce energy is not unlimited. Energy is depleted when a person spends more of it for a long time than he produces. When energy is completely used up, life ends.
19. The law of disruption of human energy movement
Energy circulates in the outside world and inside a person.
When there is a disturbance in the circulation of energy within a person
a lack of internal energy is formed. Circulation is disrupted when energy is blocked by negative thoughts, feelings and fears, when it is used to process experiences, or during illness and stress.
In case of disruption of energy exchange with the outside world
There is not enough energy coming from outside. This is facilitated by isolation, crisis, withdrawal, loneliness, and deterioration in well-being.
Disruption of the circulation of internal energy and energy exchange often occurs when a person ignores his desires and interests. A person stops taking care of himself, he experiences disappointment, and does not satisfy his needs.
20. Law of energy exchange No. 1
The relationship between people can be considered as the relationship between energy systems. We share our energy with others and accept energy coming from other people. We exchange the energy of our actions and feelings for the energy of other people's actions and feelings.
If we are open and do not put up barriers to block the flow of fresh energy, we receive the energy of the world around us. Without it, we experience an energy vacuum.
Energy must be shared, then it will not decrease. When we exchange energy with others, we combine our energies, creating more energy, multiplying it.
21. Law of energy exchange No. 2
You need to be able to establish an equal, fair exchange of energy with others.
If we give more than we take, this will lead to our energy depletion. If we give someone more than we receive from them, we may develop resentment towards the person. If we receive more from someone than we give, we may feel guilty.
Everything in the world strives for a balance of energy exchange; everything depends on the ability to establish contact with the outside world.
If we have established an equal exchange of energy with the world, then the more energy we give to others, the more we receive.
The world exists so that it can be shared with each other.
22. Law of energy of extroverts and introverts
Each person is focused primarily on the external or internal world.
Introverts spend most of their time immersed in their inner world. They strive for deep self-study and self-knowledge, being interested primarily in their own thoughts and feelings.
Extroverts are focused on the external world. They are busy with the external world of people, events and things, trying to establish as many contacts with the external environment as possible.
The energy of introverts is directed to their inner world, the energy of extroverts is directed to the external world.
23. Law of related energy
We strive for people with similar energy. General energy allows you to be on the same wavelength, feel and predict the state of another person. Similar energetic characteristics produce a kind of natural selection in the environment, since they determine differences in the behavior of people and in their attitude to the same environmental influences.
There are initially high-energy types and those whose energy potential is significantly lower. Energetic people prefer energetic people.
24. Law of energy vampires and energy donors
The quality of our life is the quality of our communication. Some communicate with others on equal terms, others dissolve in communication, others submit, unable to withstand someone else’s energetic superiority.
There are people who seek other people's energy, and those who produce energy for others. There are people who use other people's energy, and those who feed others and live in a mode of minimal energy consumption for themselves.
People with whom there is a decrease in energy levels after communicating with them are called vampires. And those who “supply” them energy are donors. These two types of people solve the problems of their existence in the world differently.
25. Law of increasing energy levels
We increase our energy using physical, psychological, social and spiritual levels.
Physical.
We use food energy and movement energy. They give us an energy boost and help keep the body in good shape.
Psychological.
Psychological fuel is dreams and desires. They awaken our energy. Desires are our energy reservoir.
Social.
By being socially active and experiencing a sense of involvement in what is happening in the world around us, we can feel the positive energy of communication and enjoy the energy of interaction between people.
Spiritual
. When learning spiritual truths, a person moves to a different level of understanding reality, superficial and unnecessary things disappear from his life. He releases energy that was previously spent on vain matters.
Do what makes you feel good, what brings you joy. This charges you with the maximum amount of energy.
26. Law of dream energy
Every day we get another chance to make our dreams come true. If we have a dream, then we have the power and ability to achieve what we want.
The energy of dreams should bubble within us. Enter the energy field of your dreams to feel the energy of your imagined reality.
In order to receive the energy of what we strive for, we must begin to project it ourselves, emit it. We ourselves are energy!
27. Law of internal and external energy sources
When a person feels a lack of energy, he often tries to take it from the outside: as a rule, this is food, entertainment, shopping, sex. Some people are looking for new experiences, while others are looking for extreme sports. Others are fueled by inner anger. Someone descends to the lower states of the soul, receiving energy from observing the suffering and experiences of others.
When we see that energy is not enough, we often use a substitute or equivalent for energy, such as money.
The main source of vital energy is within the person himself. Faith, love, hope give us a powerful charge of concentrated energy.
28. Law of external energy sources
External sources of energy can be compared to medicine. Just as a medicine depends on the dose: in small doses it helps, but in large doses it harms the body, so what in acceptable quantities increases energy levels, in excessive quantities can reduce it.
Gaining energy and losing it can be due to the same external energy source.
What a person spends his energy on also gives it, for example, communication.
29. The law of borrowing energy
Some people need a constant flow of energy from the outside; their good mood and well-being depend on something external. They need external sources of energy.
External sources can only provide a short-term improvement in mood and calm, a temporary escape from life’s troubles and difficulties. They do not solve problems, they only postpone them for a while.
An external source lends energy. Borrowing energy means that you will have to repay that energy later. When we cannot repay our debts, an energy crisis occurs.
The energy deficit grows over time, as unmet needs and unresolved problems remain, which constantly require energy to keep them at a distance from consciousness.
30. Law of energy of the present
Energy exists in the present.
Living in the past or future deprives a person of power; we scatter our energy. When we free our minds from intrusive thoughts, we gain the ability to feel the energy of the present moment. When we live in the present, our energy is not wasted. Its level reaches its maximum.
Only living in the present helps concentrate our energy. We need to live here and now, then we will be filled with life-giving, invigorating energy. Recharge yourself with the energy of the present!
31. Law of the energy of silence
To create something significant, the energy of silence is necessary. In silence, energy is born for new discoveries and achievements. In silence a new day is born.
During periods of calm, we restore strength and renew ourselves. In solitude we generate energy. We accumulate strength before a powerful flow of energy, before a period when energy begins to bubble within us.
You need to learn to extract the energy of silence, to be in silence, to turn to yourself.
32. Law of Energy Management
We are all born with different amounts of vital energy. Each passing day leaves its mark on its level. Energy is characterized by quantity, but it has no direction. Our energy is directed towards what we consciously or unconsciously choose.
Our energy materializes in the events of our lives. The energy of thoughts and feelings creates an image of the future, which is translated into reality by the energy of actions.
Managing your energy is its use, restoration, awakening, transformation of its flow, energy saving. This is the direction of energy in the right direction so that it does not get scattered, an equivalent energy exchange with the outside world.
You need to use energy, receiving it from the outside and generating it within yourself. Energy must be accumulated, remain calm, and be released at the right time. Spend what you have and fill your life with energy.
33. Law of Energy of the Universe
Man is surrounded by all sorts of energy systems: other people and nature - stormy seas, roaring columns of air called wind, earth-shaking volcanoes, animals ready to jump.
(according to E. Berne).
Our Universe stores enormous reserves of energy. Thanks to this energy, our world exists. Energy takes many forms. Energy flows from one form to another.
There is enough energy in the Universe for everyone. We can count on this energy to make our dreams and aspirations come true.
“If a person really wants something, then the whole Universe will help make his wish come true.”
(P. Coelho).
Refuel on time!
Any system, and “rest-work” is also a system, exists only as long as a balance is maintained between the efforts expended and the joys received. Rest should not be just a “pause” in work, and work should not burn all the internal “gasoline”.
To rest means to restore yourself, and no one knows better than you what fills and supports you. Universal recipes do not work here. Some people regain strength by cleaning the house, while others are more exhausted from this activity than during a week of rushing at work.
If you feel a loss of strength, burnout, listen carefully to yourself: what can right now give you “refueling” and the strength to move on? Balance is often kept on the little things: a favorite cup on the desktop, warm slippers, a minute of good communication with colleagues or family. A song heard on the radio at the right time, monetary motivation, or a successfully purchased scarf can support you.
Change your life for the better
There should be several mastered areas in life, each of which can become a real support. Work, family, love, study, sports, hobbies - all this can support and inspire. And if stagnation or conflict occurs in one of these areas, there is no need to plunge headlong into the problem, becoming exhausted and tormented. Engage in strengthening your strength: switch some of your attention to other things and accumulate energy in them. Then it will be much easier to restore order in the problem area.
But what if there are few supports in life? Work is not happy, relationships are sad, sports are abandoned... And it seems that there is nowhere to recharge. Is it possible to increase your energy reserves by restructuring your life? Psychologists answer: “It’s possible! Only carefully and gradually.” First of all, you need to understand that there is joy in something and a desire to do it when it has already been successfully mastered. You want to run to a place where you run regularly and enjoy it, are filled with excitement and delight. If there is no such place, it is worth creating it step by step with tenderness towards yourself.
Have you decided to go to yoga or Pilates? Don't overload yourself during your first workout; do just enough to feel a little tired. Buy a nice sports suit to make it more enjoyable to perform exercises in it, treat yourself to healthy cocktails after training. Want to brush up on your English for your summer trip? Classes of 20 minutes will be more useful than an hour and a half marathon, which will discourage you from studying.
Start by persuading yourself and only slightly pressing the lever of will. It's easier to get involved in something if you find meaning and at least some pleasure in it. And if you allow yourself to approach things creatively, a whole stream of energy can open up. And this applies to any things - both new and long-familiar. So, over time, interesting activities appear, useful habits are cultivated, which then become loved and begin to bring pleasure.
Aliya Kovalenko , psychologist, art therapist,
Life meaning and creativity
Three concepts are important for the development of internal energy.
Balance is the natural human state. There are many systems in the body to preserve it, and the balance between tension and relaxation is the most important principle of preserving internal energy.
Another natural state is a healthy level of vital energy. It can be supported through the development of the creative self. And for this it is not necessary to be able to sing, draw or have a creative profession. Creativity is a special way of life when we allow ourselves to realize the spontaneous impulses that are born within us. The main thing is to be able to listen to them.
Even something as simple as cooking breakfast can be very resourceful and creative. It is not for nothing that in art therapy there are the concepts of “healing creativity” and “healing art.” Creativity is not necessarily about action. Listening to music, reading books, contemplating paintings by artists or nature - anything that can inspire a person can also be healing.
And the third concept is meaning. It is important to realize the meaning of your life and work. When a person understands this, he rarely faces the problem of emotional burnout, even with a busy schedule and overwork. Meaning brings joy from self-realization to life. And when there is joy, the emotional background will always be positive, no matter what difficulties you may encounter along the way. Fill your life with meanings that are important to you!
Weak energy
Since all human shells are interconnected, it is not difficult to determine what kind of energy a person possesses. There are symptoms for this. For example, a person with low energy is usually lethargic, gets tired often and quickly, is prone to depression and apathy, has a pessimistic outlook on life and poor health. Also, such people are emotionally unstable, irritable, subject to various phobias, lack self-confidence, and do not want to work and develop.
In addition, esotericists also highlight signals that help to recognize weak energy:
- A person often dreams of rocky gorges, gloomy houses, rains, floods, spills, narrow roads, passages, corridors...
- Insomnia is also one of the signs of low energy.
- I dream of discussions, quarrels, even fights.
- With severe depletion of energy, scratching and tearing of one's body in sleep is observed. May breathe heavily and moan.
Stress and physical concerns
The key feature of energy management is more than just managing existing energy, it is about increasing energy supply.
The main goal of energy management is the ability to devote more attention, energy and passion to any activity. In order for your strength to increase, you need to strain it beyond your current capabilities and then restore it. Most people know this tension of possibilities as stress. Am I saying that stress is good? Yes, that's exactly what I want to say; but only when such a situation is temporary. Short-term exertion of strength, followed by their restoration, builds up muscles. Most people, however, find themselves in a state of constant stress. Permanent stress does not help build muscles, it kills. Long-term stress, from a medical point of view, is associated with suppression of the body's immune system, which increases the likelihood of various types of ailments and diseases.
I recently read an article on a fitness topic in which the author stated that perhaps many people who fail to build muscle are exercising too much, not not enough. Ignoring the recovery phase leads to the fact that their body cannot adapt to the process, and therefore cannot improve its shape. The same thing happens to people who don't use an incremental cycle to cope with stress. The increase in energy capacity does not occur due to stress, but as a result of recovery from stress.
By maintaining gradually increasing loads, you can slowly but surely increase your ability to store energy. Start by identifying your current energy capacity, and then push yourself to slightly exceed that level. For example, if you find it difficult to maintain full concentration for more than thirty minutes, set a goal of thirty-five. Just remember: for such tension to be beneficial, you need to recover at the end.
Cycles of Energy
My first mistake was that I did not fully understand: energy management, unlike time management, is a cyclical process, not a linear one.
While linear, time management is simply the process of organizing and prioritizing to achieve more value in less time. In other words, the goal of time management is to effectively package, organize, and prioritize activities for maximum efficiency. That's not how energy management works. Energy works in a system similar to a currency system, performing the function of money. In other words, once energy is expended, it must be restored before attempting to expend it again. Otherwise you will end up lacking it. Lack of energy is not a pleasant thing. If a person experiences fatigue, irritation, tension, is upset and completely lacks enthusiasm, he understands that he has an energy deficit. Ultimately, there is a need for a system of checks and balances. When the body, mind, emotions and spirit finally declare themselves bankrupt, a person breaks down and burns out. This is the possible price to pay for poor energy management.
Good energy management is a cycle in which full dedication and maximum use of resources are interspersed with periods of intense recovery of energy needed for the tasks ahead. Is this what most people do? Of course not. Most people in today's fast-paced world think that they can cheat the recovery process. As they fall deeper and deeper into energy poverty, they somehow believe that the rules of energy management do not apply to them.
So, the first key to effective energy management is to introduce habits into your life that encourage cycles of full commitment interspersed with restoration. If there is no balance in this cycle, the system becomes unstable. Creating such habits means that you need to develop a ritual for replenishing energy. Maybe just sit in a relaxed state for fifteen minutes, or do some light exercise. I previously talked about how I take one day off a week. Although I didn't realize it at the time, it was a critical tool for creating this positive cycle of energy management.
How to recover?
The volume of energy flows in the human body decreases with age or the occurrence of chronic diseases. Accordingly, there is less vigor, and the mood worsens. There are special exercises to restore normal energy levels.
Based on the idea that the mental and physical components of a person are interconnected, simple figurative content can be used to gain energy. To do this, just take a comfortable position (sit or lie down), close your eyes and perform breathing exercises according to the “inhale-hold-exhale” triangle principle. And so on for several cycles. It is best that the breathing rhythms are equal in duration. For example, we inhale for 6 seconds, hold our breath for 6 seconds and exhale for 6 seconds. If this practice does not cause difficulties, then the duration can be increased. The main thing is that breathing does not cause tension, that it flows freely and without interruptions.
To balance energy flows in yoga, another exercise is used. It consists of pressing your chin to your chest as you inhale, holding your breath as long as possible, and then exhaling calmly. It is important to remember that breathing practices must be done on an empty stomach to avoid discomfort such as nausea or a sudden loss of strength.
If there are deviations in the lower chakras, then you can simply walk barefoot on the ground. This will awaken the receptors on the feet and activate the flow of earthly energy.
