In winter, many people have less energy than in the warmer months and feel tired and listless. The gloomy weather and darkness also affect our mood. But does it have to be like this? No! With our tips, you’ll soon feel more balanced again, no matter what the weather is like outside.
Feeling listless and tired? Fill up on daylight for more energy
To be happy and dynamic, we need light. To be more precise: we need daylight. Because even on dull days, it is much more intense than the artificial lamps indoors. For example, you could use your lunch break for a short walk in the sun.
If this is not possible or not enough, special daylight lamps can help. They are particularly bright and imitate the color spectrum of daylight.
Magnesium and other nutrients for energy in winter
Magnesium is mainly absorbed through food and contributes to our body’s energy metabolism alongside other substances.
Other nutrients can also help you to feel more energetic. In times of physiological challenges and increased nutrient requirements, nutritional supplements can be useful in addition to a balanced and healthy diet. We recommend these products from our range for the winter:
-
SILICIUM LIQUID is a liquid food supplement and contains vitamin D3 and vitamin K2. Vitamin D is known to keep our defenses healthy and support the immune system. This can be particularly beneficial in winter.
-
SILICIUM PLUS offers the nutrients calcium and magnesium in capsule form, both of which contribute to a healthy energy metabolism.
-
SILICIUM PRIME is also a food supplement in capsule form with additional D3/K2 oil. This product also contains calcium, magnesium, vitamin D3 and vitamin D2.
Alternating showers and cold showers
If you take a shower in the morning and are a bit tougher, then try a real alternating shower! Start with warm water and take a really cold shower in between. Then switch back to warm water. The alternating shower always ends cold.
If that’s too much for you or you don’t want to shower in the morning, try cold showers. Simply run cold water over your forearms or wash your face with cold water!
Drink enough for physical and cognitive function
We don’t notice it so clearly, but even in winter we sweat and therefore constantly lose fluids. At the same time, many people are less thirsty in winter than in summer. So pay particular attention to how much you drink now. You should drink at least 2 liters of water a day to keep yourself well hydrated.
Self-care in winter for more joie de vivre
Winter is a time when you should take particularly good care of yourself. Feel inside yourself and, if in doubt, take things a little slower! It’s normal to have a little less energy in winter than in the warmer months and to feel tired and listless. Give in to these rhythms a little and enjoy the deceleration of winter
