1 Oil pulling
Oil pulling is great for detoxing: it is best done in the morning right after getting up. Put 1 tablespoon of cold-pressed sunflower oil in your mouth and pull it through your teeth. Spit out after three minutes and rinse with warm water.
2 Walk upright
It sounds quite banal, but it works wonders: an upright posture lifts your mood and gives you more energy. A hunched back, on the other hand, makes you limp and tired. So: keep your head up and your chest out!
3 Light and air
Light ensures that the happiness hormone serotonin is released. A walk in the fresh spring air puts you in a good mood and awakens your winter-weary spirits.
4 Bedtime gymnastics
Boost your circulation before getting up: stretch your arms and legs, clench your fists, curl your toes and take a deep breath. Or: cycling in the air is also good for you.
5 Daydreaming
Get out of the daily grind, switch off for five minutes and daydream in your mind's eye in front of quiet mountain peaks or on a paradisiacal sandy beach - it's good for the soul and gives you new strength.
6 Ginger tea
It has a stimulating and circulation-enhancing effect. Simply peel fresh ginger (1.5 cm), cut into slices, pour hot water over it and leave to infuse for ten minutes.
7 Bright colors
Red and yellow and blue, maybe a little pink: bright colors brighten the mood.
8 Doing good
Nothing makes you happier than making others happy. This can be a compliment, a smile, praise or interest in others.
9 Breaking new ground
Always in the same rut ... breaking the routine, taking detours, trying out new things - this keeps your mind alert and strengthens your awareness.
10 Laugh more often
Laughter is healthy, as the saying goes. It releases happiness hormones and combats stress. Surprisingly, simply pretending to laugh also brightens your mood.
11 Drink water
It is often recommended to drink at least two liters a day - but there is still no scientific evidence for this. One liter is enough, and you should drink when you are thirsty. Preferably still water, and preferably from the tap. It's super fresh and super cheap.
12 Get enough sleep
Sleep is still underestimated. You should get between six and eight hours a night so that your body can regenerate properly. Without enough sleep, you feel listless and listless.
13 Listen to your favorite song
Music cheers you up. And your favorite song anyway. It puts you in a good mood, activates the happiness hormone serotonin and simply makes you feel happy and cheerful. And if you can't get enough of it: Just listen to it ten times in a row, with headphones.
14 Mobile phone off
As useful and helpful as smartphones are - sometimes it's really good to take a break. After all, smartphones are a real energy and time drain. Above all, you should leave it switched off at night.
15 Relax
Jacobson's progressive relaxation exercises can be done anywhere. They reduce stress and give you new vitality. You tense various muscle groups and then relax them again. There are detailed instructions on the Internet.
16 Cycling
The steady movement of cycling reduces stress. Messenger substances such as dopamine, serotonin, adrenaline and the growth hormone somatropin are increasingly released.
17 Foot bath
Boil rosemary in hot water and add the brew to a foot bath. This stimulates the circulation.
18 Schuessler salt
Ferrum Phosphoricum D12 provides energy and vitality. Take it for about three months and then take a break.
19 Alternating showers
The simple version is also known as a Scottish shower. It lasts 90 seconds and goes like this: from cold to hot and back to cold again. This alternating shower stimulates the circulation and really wakes you up.
20 Singing
Singing is good for almost everything: the bronchial tubes and lungs, the respiratory muscles, the cardiovascular system and, of course, the soul. When you sing, you never have a dull thought.
21 Chewing gum
Chewing gum is a fresh kick for the brain - it is better supplied with oxygen, which brings new energy.
22 Smell
Takea whiff of lemon, basil or fresh coffee and you'll immediately feel fitter and more efficient.
23 Meditation
A short meditation in the morning can do wonders to start the day. It calms the mind and promotes concentration, which leads to greater clarity and focus. It doesn't have to be a long session - even just 5-10 minutes can make a big difference.
24 Power nap
A short break during the day can help boost energy levels and reboot the brain. It's not about falling asleep, it's just about having a short rest. 10-20 minutes can help you feel refreshed and focused afterwards.
25 Time for yourself
To go through the day calmly and with more energy, it is important to have time for yourself. This can mean building an hour into your schedule for a hobby, reading a book or simply going for a walk on your own. The important thing is to do something good for yourself and take time to recharge.
