What energizes you?

What energizes you? Is there an optimal amount of sleep, exercise, is it a particular diet, is it discipline or is it entirely psychological?

- Approximately 7 hours of sleep. Notably more or less makes me feel even more like shit than usual.

- If I desire caffeine, I drink matcha instead of coffee. Coffee amplifies my anxiety.

- As long as I am healthy and able-bodied, I need to exercise five to six times a week or else my anorexia athletica kicks in.

- I enjoy exercise (martial arts specifically), so just knowing I can look forward to it for the day provides me with energy.

- I've never had a good diet, so IDK how it affects me.

Getting some time outside, and seeing people both energize me, even when I don't think they will.

Diet wise, it doesn't seem to matter whether I'm trying to healthy or eat garbage, I'm always tired. I guess food that tastes good energizes me. :shrug:

I can't sleep too much or I'll be miserable all day. Sleeping less actually gives me more energy, about 6 1/2 hours is perfect.

Exercise helps me maintain my energy and relaxes my mind, but I have to have to have the energy to actually exercise first. When I'm in an inspired and thoughtful mood, I always wanna have a dance party for some reason. And it's like, my main form of exercise. Pull up the music, put on the exercise clothes, party.

Energy? I am abound with it! XD I think mine is a bit psychological though because I don't think of all these things others are thinking of here... I think if you stop and remember to feel joy and excitement over little things that getting through the day with energy is so much easier. Don't sit idle.

I am energized when I have time for everything and at the same time take care of myself with everyone. I like to have time for the day and work and do what I like (for example, cook something in the kitchen) and have time to go in for sports)
