21 Evergreen health tips for high energy levels

There are a few simple lifestyle habits that, when applied to everyday life, can help you avoid illness and keep your energy levels high.

Most are free and take about 5 minutes a day, the rest only require a few hours a week or a one-time understanding and incorporation into your habits.

They have worked for me and many others at least. I’m sure there are others I’ve missed out of the list. If you don’t think these simple practices work, feel free to do your research!

Maintaining a natural circadian rhythm: watching the sunrise every day, spending time outdoors, sunbathing, reducing blue light in the evening, sleeping early
Quality sleep: early to bed, 7-8 hours of undisturbed sleep, in a dark, cool bedroom
Nasal breathing: breathing in and out through the nose only, in most situations
Breath retention mini-exercises, a few times a day for 10-30 seconds (easy to do even when traveling or walking)
Focus on local, seasonal, natural foods
Minimize refined, processed foods
Adequate protein intake, preferably every day
Time-restricted eating, i.e. at least a 10-12 hour meal-free period each day
Connecting with nature: at least a few minutes every day, at least once a week for a longer period
Cold water showers, outdoor cold and cold water baths
Learning and applying stress management techniques
Learn or try something new every day, do something different
Meaningful, motivating, long-term goals, challenges and work
Loving, supportive, inspiring human relationships
Laughter, fun, relaxation
Meditation, relaxation, a few minutes of doing nothing
At least 20-30 minutes of walking a day
A few minutes of full-body exercise routines
A few minutes of improvisational movement snacks
Regular exercise: 1-4 strength training sessions per week, 1-2 endurance sessions per week, 1-2 mobility training sessions per week, or any favorite sport. Or 2-3 sessions per week with a combination of the above.
Progress in small steps if sudden change is not suitable for some reason.
