How to feel in the fall a surge of strength and energy for an active life?
The daylight hours are getting shorter, the nights are getting colder, the viruses have revived, and there has been no less work. Rather, the opposite is true – the holidays are over, and everyone began to fulfill their duties with new zeal. Our experts advise making a few simple changes to your daily routine.
Recharge with natural remedies
Ginger, acerola (a berry from the South American tropics), as well as the fruits of beekeeping are a real ambulance for fatigue. They can be consumed both fresh, adding to dishes and drinks, and in the form of dietary supplements. For example, based on acerola, plant-based cosmetics brand Yves Rocher created delicious chewable vitamins Vitamine C Végétale. One piece provides the body with 80 mg of vitamin C (this is 133% of the daily value). Due to its natural origin, this drug, unlike synthetic analogues, is completely absorbed. And the organic brand Melvita offers to restore strength with Gelée Royale ampoules with royal jelly, which is incredibly rich in amino acids, minerals and trace elements. Whichever product you prefer, for a lasting invigorating effect, use it every day for two to three weeks.

- Our autumn mood
Vegetable soups and stews are our best friends. “Autumn vegetables and fruits improve cellular metabolism and, as a result, give a boost of energy,” says Ekaterina Klimchuk, nutritionist at Elementaree. – For example, pumpkin activates the liver, unloads the vascular system and gently cleanses the intestines, and also saturates the body with potassium and B vitamins. Beetroot improves skin condition and gives a feeling of lightness. Broccoli is good for the heart and bones. Grapes help to recover from a cold and strengthen the immune system. In addition, the nutritionist recommends not to forget about cereals and seeds – pumpkin, flax, sesame. The former are rich in B vitamins and magnesium, the latter are rich in omega-3 and 9.
Drink warm water
The simplest way, which we so often neglect. Meanwhile, central heating contributes to dehydration, which leads to a lack of minerals and trace elements important for well-being. Yulia Yusipova, a Tibetan medicine doctor from the Float Studio wellness center, recommends starting the day with a glass of hot water. It helps cleanse the liver, keeps you warm and helps you wake up. And during the day it is good to drink heated mineral water.

- Essential oils
Do a warming massage
Ayurvedic Abhyanga massage is the best option. But you can maintain good health on your own. Yulia Yusipova recommends rubbing oil with warming properties (sesame, melted butter or unrefined sunflower) into the center of the palms and feet in the morning and evening. This will help keep warm, protect against viruses and colds. But it is better not to use olive, coconut and other cooling oils from mid-October until spring.
Turn on artificial sun
Sunlight destroys the sleep hormone melanin, so in spring and summer, when it gets light early, it’s easier for us to get up in the morning. Philips has long wanted to develop an alarm clock that mimics sunrise. And, I must say, they did a great job! Half an hour before your set wake-up time, the new Philips Wake-up Light alarm clock begins to gradually increase the light intensity, gently preparing the body for an easy and natural awakening.
