Have more energy for the holidays

This time of year can be very celebratory or exhausting, or both! Here are a few tips to help it be more of the former and less of the latter.

Maintain your sleep schedule as closely as possible. Aim for the same number of hours as well as the same bedtime and wake-up time. Experts recommend that these be within one hour all week. So if you normally get up at 6:00 during the week, try to get up no later than 7:00 on the weekend. Sleeping in to 9 or 10 may actually make you more tired and make it harder to get back on schedule the next week.

Instead of reaching for that extra cup of coffee, get some Asian ginseng. It comes in creams, teas, and pill form. This is a very popular herb that boosts mental and physical energy. Rhodiola herb helps the body fight stress. It is used frequently in Russia as a tea for this purpose.

Also, regular chiropractic adjustments keep your body in top shape. This reduces stress and helps keep you physically and mentally balanced. It also saves body energy when all your joints are working smoothly, just like the proper oil in your car.

Enjoy the holidays!
