Dr Oz: More Energy With Hydrating Foods & Jasmine Essential Oil

Dr Oz: Holistic Ways To Increase Energy

Do you feel as if you’re constantly fighting fatigue, no matter how much sleep you get at night? Dr Oz was with Dr. Tieraona Low Dog discussing holistic remedies for improving your energy levels. Fortunately, Dr Low Dog has just the plan to boost your energy levels all day long, with tips for treating your body, your mind, and your soul. Naturally, Dr Oz brought in his go-to tester Rhenotha to try some of those holistic remedies herself.

Dr Oz: Hydrating Foods

Rhenotha admitted that she’s always running and she’s always tired. Dr Oz was quick to point out that a lot of us aren’t drinking water the right way, which is why it’s important to snack on hydration foods. You may not have thought about it before, but plants are actually loaded with water. Some that are more than 90% water include celery, cucumber, radish, tomatoes, and peppers. They’re low in calories too so go ahead and munch on them raw with hummus or even by themselves. You can also add vinegar for an added benefit.

Dr Low Dog strongly believes that at least half your plate at every meal should be plants.

Dr Oz: Stretch & Move Every Hour To Improve Energy

Dr Low Dog also suggested that you take a minute to stop and think about what you’re eating, you can practice mindful eating to heal your mind. Additionally, try stretching and moving once an hour. No matter what kind of job you have, you should be able to stretch even without getting out of your chair. The prayer pose is an easy one to do for your shoulders. Simply press your hands together and then lift your elbows until they’re at 90 degrees to your body, and press your elbows and forearms together.

Then to relieve some tension in your neck, try doing slow, drawn out “yes” movements then “no” movements. Practice those sorts of movements every hour.

Dr Oz: Jasmine Essential Oil To Help You Relax

Finally, a great way to fight fatigue is to use infused jasmine at night. Mix 10 drops of jasmine essential oil with one ounce of water and mist on your sheets and bed before bed at night. You can also keep it in your car and mist it on the seats as an instant mood booster and relaxation technique.

Jasmine has been shown to bind the same kinds of receptors in the brain that lift the mood and hep you relax.
