Recently spoke at the Seattle Chamber’s NW Elevate Series on “The 5 Secrets to Reclaim Your Energy!”

I was so surprised with the response to this poll: What is your current energy level?

The poll results?

Not one attendee answered they have high levels of energy.

Not a single person.

Yet nearly half of the sixty attendees responded they had low energy and struggled to maintain energy through the day. It hit me hard how much folks are struggling.

Check out the results below:

I figured others are feeling this way as well.

Here’s quick way to identify the source of your energy drains using the ENERGY POWER checklist below.

The more energy leaks plugged, the more you can feel energized.
​
The intention of this checklist exercise is to bring awareness to what is happening.

Simply read the question. Tune in to your heart. Then answer authentically. Don’t worry about scoring, or getting as my yes’s as possible. Simply answer as honestly as possible.

At the end, pick 1-3 areas you can start shifting today.

ENERGY POWER CHECKLIST

BODY POWER:
1. Are you getting quality sleep?
2. Does what you eat make your body sing?
3. Is your core and gut area warm throughout the day?
4. Do you regularly move your body (let’s not even address exercise yet!) throughout the day?

HEART POWER:
1. Do you smile throughout the day for no reason?
2. Do you feel light and expansive (versus heavy, tight, constricted) in your chest?
3. Do you know how to name the emotion of your feeling, focus on your heart within, and breathe deeply?
4. Do you allow unwanted emotions like irritable, anger, sadness, anxiety, rage, embarrassment, disgust, judgement to energetically flow through you and pass?

MIND POWER:
1. Do you do one task at a time, fully present? Multi-tasking includes not just doing two things at once. It also includes doing successive actions in a row quickly with no break or switching rapidly back and forth between two tasks.
2. Are you able to relax and quiet your brain on demand in a moment?
3. Do you go offline completely at least one day a week to recharge?
4. Do you eat a meal sitting down, slowly and mindfully without doing anything else? (versus scarfing down leftovers in 5 minutes standing up before you run to the next meeting while listening to a podcast)

SOUL POWER:
1. Do you wake up happy?
2. If today was your last day to live, would you be ready to pass away?
3. Do you have no regrets?
4. Do you feel you’re fulfilling your highest potential in your day to day life?

All too often, the boundless energy reserves available as children get sucked up through layers of stress over the years, leaving us depleted like an empty cup.

Results from My Vipassana Silent Meditation Retreat

Once your natural energy depletes, it’s like an empty bank account that you now have to borrow energy then from your body–accelerating your aging process.
​
Instead, by noticing and bringing awareness to these energy drains, you can consciously replenish and recharge yourself, feeling higher levels of energy in your day.
