✅✅✅ Physical sources are everything that helps us stay in shape. First of all, it is physical activity. Be sure to organize your life in such a way that you walk at least 10 thousand steps every day. This is the minimum amount of movement your body needs.

Watch your diet. You should have at least four meals a day, and the morning portion should be 2 times larger than the evening portion. The food should be tasty. This is important because it is not only satiety that gives us energy, but also the pleasure of eating.

Keep track of your drinking regimen. Each person has a different one, depending on physical activity and body characteristics, and the norm of sleep, like water, is different for everyone. Allow yourself to wake up without an alarm clock for two weeks on vacation. Add up all the hours of sleep you got during these two weeks and divide by 14 days. The resulting figure will be your norm.

✅✅✅ Emotional sources affect our energy faster than any other. But we don't always have objective reasons to be happy. What can we do? Create positive emotions on your own! It's not difficult at all. For example, you can use the principle of the Tiny Raccoon: "Share your smile, and it will come back to you more than once." Emotions are contagious, and if you smile at a person in a store, they are likely to smile back at you, and the emotion you give them will come back to you.

✅✅✅ Essential sources are our identity, our meanings and values. How do you answer the question "Who am I?" How clearly do you define your identity? There are different identities - professional, national, family, etc. The more clearly you recognize yourself from different angles, the more reliable this source of energy is.

Another important essential source is meaning. The psychiatrist Viktor Frankl wrote that even in the most unbearable conditions, a person has a chance to survive if he or she sees the meaning in it. The body can adapt to many things if we understand why we need it.

✅✅✅ Intellectual sources are what keep our brain in good shape. When we are engaged in creativity, learning something new, doing intellectual exercises, we draw energy from intellectual sources. Now, even in self-isolation, we have many opportunities to develop intellectually, which means we can keep ourselves in good shape.
