We all lose energy in different ways. Some - in the endless race of affairs and responsibilities. Some - in toxic relationships, where words and looks seem to suck out the living warmth from within. And some - in an eternal struggle with themselves, with expectations that are never met.
But lost energy is not forever. It knows how to return. And the path to it is not a magic pill or another productivity marathon. It is the ability to stop and hear yourself.
Where to look for energy again?
In silence, when you turn off unnecessary sounds and give your brain a rest.
In movement, because the body is the best battery for the soul.
In the joy of little things: warm tea, the smell of rain, the smile of a random passerby.
In being honest with yourself: admitting that you are tired, that you need a break, that you want something different.
And, most importantly, energy returns when we stop wasting it on what is not ours. When we say “no” to what destroys, and “yes” to what makes us alive.
In search of lost energy, we are, in fact, looking for ourselves. The real us. Without masks and other people's expectations.
