Transcript
- Lisa Dwoskin: Hello and welcome to Life Rescue Podcast with Lisa. Yes, I'm raising my energetic vibe today. Yes, because my podcast is about why do we feel so exhausted so much of the time, no matter what age you are, what gender you are. We are going to jump right into our podcast today. Which is why we feel so exhausted all the time, and how to get your energy back. Woo woo! We gotta jump up and down. I'm sitting on my Pilates bed, so I can't jump up and down, but I am definitely going to jump into this after we do a deep breath of just energetic breathing. Breathe in. Beautiful positive energy. Exhale. Anything that is no longer serving your highest good. Namaste. So my soul recognizes your soul, and we are all one in this collective, beautiful universe. So let's talk about how we can get our energy back. And don't forget if you have a comment, if you have a question, if you have a story you want to share with me, please call me 754-222-4413-2 Leave me a message, let me know what you want to talk about, a comment, a story about yourself, a story about a family member, a friend, whatever it is, text me or call me. I would love to hear from you. So we're going to jump right into this. What can we do to get our energy back? Why are we all so exhausted these days? And I have quite a few clients between the ages of 25 and 85. So it's not just about age, it's about the way you live your life, how you feel in the mind, in your body, how healthy you are, and in your spirit or your soul, whatever you want to say, either one is correct. How you feel inside radiates outwardly. So if you're feeling negative or low energy inside. That's what you're going to portray outside. So before I jump in, I'm gonna take a quick sip of my water. Don't forget to hydrate. So, real quick, VOL 528 Hertz is the vibration of love water that Brian, my divine life partner, invented and it's scientifically proven to boost your immune system and your energy. And it's it's vibrated at VOL528, which is a vibration, it's infused. In the water, check out the website VOL528Hz, which is HZ.com, or you can go to Instagram and follow us there, VOL528, or you can go to me, Life Rescue TV on Instagram or here on YouTube, and we have all the links so that you can find it. Stay hydrated. One more sip. Hydration. Excuse me. Hydration is everything. Whoa, that went down wrong. Hydration is everything. I seem to be getting a little bit of a tickle in my throat last night and this morning. So I'm gonna be drinking a lot of water so I can speak clearly with a lot of energy. Woo! Yes, yes, yes. Energetic vibes. So this is very important for anyone. But especially my I would say my genre that follows me is mainly women over the age of forty who are starting perimenopause, menopause, postmenopause, and also men, you men out there who are overwhelmed with stress of work, family, financial stress. It's really difficult these days in our world, and people are exhausted. They are absolutely emotionally exhausted, burnout. It can be their hormones, it can be stress, it can be overwhelmed. People are feeling this on such a deep core level. So let's talk about what this affects when you're overwhelmed and you're exhausted. Mental health. It affects your mental health very much so. It is it affects your physical health. It affects your nervous system. It affects every part of your life. And when it affects you that deeply, it affects the people around you. And that is what we want to try to talk about is how we can help ourselves so that we can feel better and our family and our friends and the people around us could feel better as well. So Why are so many of us tired all the time, even after sleeping a good night's rest? Emotional overload, like what I just said, for men, financial stress, careers, taking care of the family, being the provider, giving your wife attention, your girlfriend attention, your kids attention, your career, women also, the same thing. We're trying to be good mothers, good spouses. Good career women, because women are independently career driven, I think, as almost as much as men these days, maybe even more in some cases. Mental clutter. People have so much going on in their mind that they're like, ⁓ my god, their mental clutter is vibrating their mind so much, it's taking up all the space in their brain. And they don't know how to deal with that mental stress. The stress is in your mind, it's in your body, and it's in your soul. So, what is emotional exhaustion versus physical exhaustion? The difference between the two of them could be lack of sleep, emotional burnout, carrying everyone else, and How do we reset this formula? So the difference between emotional exhaustion versus physical exhaustion, and then I'm gonna get into I put down different examples of each one. So lack of sleep. Okay. When you don't sleep, you're physically exhausted. Your body is physically incapable of having a lot of energy, and in turn it affects your mind because if you're physically exhausted and mentally exhausted, you're useless to yourself and to anybody else, including your career, taking care of your family. So emotional exhaustion and physical exha exhaustion, there's no really difference in which one's more taxing on your body. Because when you're physically exhausted, it's hard to get moving, it's hard to do things, it's hard to get exercising. But when you're mentally exhausted, you get brain fog, you get depression, you get mental non-clarity, the opposite of mental clarity. You're like constantly in in a fog state, like a zombie. So you cannot actually feel better and and have that energetic vibe if You're mentally exhausted and physically exhausted. So, how do we reset your energy? Okay, so the first thing has to do with the mind. So let's break it down since it's emotional exhaustion and physical exhaustion. And when you have both, you really need to make a change. So with your mind, you need to protect your peace. I'm always talking about this. And before we jump into this, put your hands in prayer position and close your eyes and breathe in. Peace, love, and light. Exhale out stress, fear, or worry. Okay, so this is an example of protecting your peace. What do you do to bring more peace into your mind, your body, and your soul? So, what I just did right there, a breathing technique. I do yoga and meditation daily to protect my peace. And let me tell you something, without my yoga practice, which includes the meditative part of it, I don't know how I would get through life. Honestly, I don't. Because, like all of you watching this program and my podcast. You, me, and everyone around us is suffering right now with mental exhaustion, overwhelmeness. The world is pretty much in a disarray. The people in it are in a disarray, including us. So, how do we protect our peace? Please listen carefully. You need to do something daily to protect your peace. So whether it's getting out and exercising, doing meditation, breathing, taking a bubble bath, getting a massage, whatever it is that brings you peace, playing golf, gardening, whatever it is, find something. That is the most important thing to bring peace into your life every day, to help bring your nervous system to a more peaceful state of being. On a regular basis. Stop scrolling through the phone, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Whether you're looking cl is this like going right, looking for a date, or you're looking at Instagram and scrolling up, scrolling down, scrolling all around. Raise that energetic vibe. No, but really stop scrolling. Take a break from your phones and put them down. They're Making your mind crazy. Boundaries. I say this on every episode. Create boundaries with other people around your like I call my body, mind and spirit, my temple. So I create boundaries for my temple. I don't say yes to everybody. I definitely take time for myself to bring the peace. to quiet my mind, to bring myself to a more relaxed state. Create boundaries. Okay, so that is the mind. And let's take a sip of water. If you have water, get some V O L. ⁓ it matches my nail. No, grab your own water and take a sip. ⁓ tastes good, right? Okay, body. Movement, movement. Get exercising. I talk about this every single time. Get out and walk. I have a Fitbit now. I'm wearing this Fitbit and I'm so excited. I'm challenging myself every day to see how many steps I could do today compared to yesterday. And it's me, myself, and I against me, myself, and I. Okay, movement. Go do a dance class. Go exercise with weight training. Go do whatever it is, tennis, golf, gardening again. You can meditate and get exercise at the same time. Move your body. You don't have to do long workouts, short, 20-minute workouts. Go open your door and get outside and go do a walk. Or turn on a YouTube video and do a quick workout. It doesn't have to be Hours a day, just get your body moving, super important. Another thing that has to do with your body is nutrition, whole foods, proper nutrition. If you feed your body with junk, your mind is gonna be junky. Your body and your spirit. If you don't feed your body with good, whole nutritious foods. And you feed it with McDonald's and all these steroid-infested foods, you are going to feel it in your mind. You are not going to have a peaceful mindset. You're going to have a chaotic mindset. Feed your body good, whole, nutritious foods. Protein, high, high protein, like what I told you all on another episode. I weigh 145 pounds. I'm five foot ten. And I eat a hundred and forty-five grams of protein every single day. I try to eat one gram of protein per body weight. So I weigh 145. I want to stay that way. I have a lot of muscle tone. I'm very tall. I'm lean, but I weigh a little more because I have more muscle on my body. Yes. So definitely. Weight train because you need more lean muscle, but increase your protein because it really will fuel your mind, body, and spirit. Be careful with the sugar. Sugar crashes are horrible. And too much sugar is not good for you. It causes you to get fat, diabetes, heart disease, all of the above. Sugar is the enemy. Be careful. So your body is movement and nutrition. Feed your body well because your mind reacts accordingly to how you take care of your body. Okay? And the next one is spiritual, the spiritual soulful piece of how to get your energy back. This to me is one of the most important things. Your mind is very important, your body is very important, but to me. This piece is the most important because it's your soul. And your soul is everything. Your soul is what guides you. Your soul is what talks to you. Your soul. And for those of you who are religious watching me, God, what I always say when I meditate, that I hear God speaking to me. When I pray, God listens. When I meditate, God speaks back to me. Soulful spiritual practices for me is everything. Get out in nature. Be surrounded with nature, the trees, the birds, the sky, the ocean, the mountains. It brings energy into your soul and then it feeds your mind and body with beautiful, beautiful feelings of good, high vibrational energy. So get out into nature. Breath work that is like the biggest part of my notes here. Breathe in deeply, beautiful positive energy. Exhale out negative energy. Breath work is everything. People hold their breath when they're stressed. It's a scientifically proven fact that when you take three deep breaths. Three that you scientifically, it is a proven theor theory, relax your nervous system to a more peaceful state. So when you're going crazy and you're stressed out and you're having heart palpitations, anxiety, a panic attack, breathe in. Beautiful positive energy. Exhale out negative energy. It works, trust me. Meditate, like I said, yoga. And one last thing is this. Stillness besides the breathing and the meditating being still. It's not easy. And I bet you some of you are watching me like I can't be still. I can't be still. I'm I'm thinking, I'm going, I'm driving, I'm striving, I'm I'm going crazy in my mind. This one needs this, that one, no. Stop everything. Be still, even if it's momentarily, because if you don't take care of you, you will not be here long enough to take care of anyone else. Take care of your mind, your body, and your spirit. Okay. Do I want to give you a challenge for today? Do one thing this week to refill your cup. And I think I did this on another one of my episodes. Do one thing this week. To refill your own cup, and I don't mean for five minutes. Something big, an hour massage, a walk in the mountains, a swim in the ocean, a run on the beach, a yoga class. Get out of your comfort zone and do something exciting for you and only you to refill your cup. Okay? It's so important. So get out of that mode. I am telling you something. I have been feeling exhausted and emotionally overwhelmed. A couple of episodes ago, I watched my episode back and I was like, ⁓ my God, Lisa, you seem tired. You're talking slower. Your energetic vibe is like here. I wanted up here. Today I feel great because I've been sleeping. I'm doing beautiful things in my life to make differences in other people's lives. And that fills me with love and passion and fuel. And I just had an amazing lunch, a wrap that one of my clients gave me, and it was delicious with chicken and sun-dried tomatoes and some rice. Super healthy, so I'm fueling my body. I'm hydrating with VOL and I just feel really good. And do I feel like this every day? No. But am I working on all these things that I just told you? Yes. It's a daily practice that I am doing for myself and I'm sharing with all of you. So last thing I want to say is breathe in. Beautiful positive energy. Peace, love, and light, and exhale out. Negative energy, stress, fear, and worry. Let that shit go. See that? Right there. Let that shit go. That's my favorite saying. Take care of yourself. Thank you for joining me.
