Do you know that feeling of being tired and exhausted and not managing to do anything?
We know it too, many of us feel tired in spring & sleepy all the time.
The change of seasons from winter to spring is not an easy thing, many experience exhaustion, dizziness and headaches. If you're one of those "weather sensitive" people, here are a few suggestions to wake your body up from hibernation.
Tip 1: The most important thing is to go outside and exercise.
Springtime blues is often described as drowsiness. Hormone balance plays an important role here. Due to the change in light conditions, the body has a hard time adjusting to the new season. Gathering vitamin D through movement in the fresh air can bring the hormone balance back into equilibrium. Therefore, our No. 1 Tip is: Get out into the fresh air.
Tip 2: Let the sunshine in and take a break.
Now even more important than usual: Whether at work or in the home office, try to take a break every now and then to get your circulation going. A short walk outdoors is often enough to do this. You don't have to start jogging right away to recharge your batteries, it often helps to stretch your legs every now and then to counteract springtime lethargy.
Tip 3: Leap over your own shadow.
The Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph was already known for his cold morning showers. The attempt to get rid of the tiredness is especially successful if you expose yourself to such alternating baths, the sauna can work miracles here too. After all, a relaxing sauna session is always followed by the obligatory plunge into cold water.
