This Simple Exercise Will Reboot Your Brain in 5 Seconds

Descriptions

Days when we feel tired and drained of energy even after a good night's sleep. Fatigue and apathy can have different causes that are different for all people. Even a small solar storm 93 million miles from Earth can weaken neurons.

Studies have revealed that solar storms are so massive that they can desynchronize our biological clocks and cause excessive sleepiness and lethargy. This is because the electromagnetic activity generated by the sun's disturbances affects the pineal glands in our brains. Although these glands are very small, they play a big boss role in your endocrine system. The pineal gland controls many important functions of the human body. One of its main responsibilities is to gather information about external light and release melatonin. This hormone helps us relax and sleep. Abnormal electromagnetic activity causes an overproduction of melatonin, which can cause fatigue and drowsiness even in the middle of the day. But don't rush to put on a handmade tinfoil hat.

Fortunately, we have some universal tips you can try at home to reboot your energy levels. Don't worry, you don't need to buy any expensive special equipment.

All you need is your own body and two minutes of your precious time. Keep all the fingers of both your hands together except your thumb. Check that the second joints of each finger are aligned. Apply gentle pressure by pressing fingers together. Once you have a joint on joint and bone on bone, do not stop applying force and continue applying pressure for one minute. At some point, you may experience changes in your sinuses, which are the spaces behind your eyes, cheekbones, and in your forehead. You may feel a gradual release of pressure in this area and your nose may even begin to run. If you try this exercise with someone else, you will probably notice that the symptoms are different for different people. After a minute, release your fingers and relax your arms completely.

Well, can you feel any changes in your body?

Some of you may hear a slight ringing in the ears, feel the eustachian tube drip, or feel the area around your cheekbones and forehead lighten. You can use this technique any time of the day when you feel the need to recharge your batteries and restore your inner peace.

You can even exercise in the middle of a school exam, on a first date with your crush, or during a stressful business meeting. No one will know it will be our secret. This refreshing effect appears thanks to our intelligent and complex anatomy. Reflexology works so well because the nervous system in your hands is directly interconnected with your head, brain, and sinuses. The hands are rich in special pressure points that can be very helpful when you need an emergency tool to relieve pain and regroup your brain. When you simulate one of these reflexology points, your brain's neurotransmitters inevitably respond. This means that you can trick your brain and tell the body to feel good and energetic. And it's completely free if you know the right button, of course. So let's dive into the world of superpowers hidden in your hands and explore some key points. But if you are currently pregnant, be careful and get your doctor's approval before working with these points. Reflexology can stimulate blood pressure changes in your body and cause an unwanted hormonal response. One of the points is located here on your front forearm. It is named Neiguan or Pericardium 6 because it is part of the so-called pericardium channel that extends from the inner part of the arm to the middle finger.

You can find Niguan A point in the tendon by measuring four fingers below your wrist. If you can't clearly see the space between the tendons, clench your fist. The tension in your arms will make the tendons more pronounced. Now, open your fist, relax your hand, and massage this depression once the point is identified. Apply gentle pressure for 4 to 5 seconds. Do this exercise equally on both hands and see if you feel any difference. You can massage the whole area afterward to relax the arms if needed. During this exercise, you should begin to feel the relaxation that may spread up the inside of the arms and into the chest. If you don't feel any difference, don't worry and try again later. Acupuncturists work with this point to help people feel more energized and focused, reduce stomach upsets and headaches, and relieve arm and chest discomfort. Some say it's also good for reducing anxiety and travel sickness. Acupressure works by balancing the body's energy flow. These techniques work best when you are completely relaxed. If you are doing this exercise on someone else, you may want to ask them to lie down and let them relax completely.

Nearby is another magical pressure point called ZongZ ou. It can help reduce neck tension, temporary headaches, and shoulder and upper back pain. This point is usually quite easy to identify. It lies behind the knuckle in a groove-shaped by the ring and little finger tendons. Apply firm pressure to this depression for 4 to 5 seconds. You should feel a pleasant flow of relaxation in your arms and cervical spine. Here is another magic button that is very helpful when experiencing anxiety or headaches. Find this pressure point on the webbing between your thumb and index finger. Use your index finger and thumb to apply firm pressure to the webbing between the thumb and index finger of your other hand. Slowly and gently massage the point for 4 to 5 seconds and then switch hands.

If you still feel drained after stimulating all the aforementioned pressure points, it's time to look around. Chances are the weather is to blame for your fatigue. It's normal to feel tired and sleepy if you're outside in a hot car on a hot day or in a hot classroom. Although we know that heat makes us tired, many people don't know why.

First, when it gets hot, your body starts sending fluid and blood to the surface of your body to cool down. This process uses up some of your body's resources, which can leave you feeling tired.

Second, remember that dehydration always causes drowsiness and fatigue. When it's hot, your body quickly loses salt and fluid in the form of sweat. Sometimes it's not the heat that makes you feel drained, but rather the lack of water balance that results. So drinking enough water is very important if you want to feel energized during the day. And if you like to stimulate your brain with coffee, keep in mind that caffeinated drinks can act as a diuretic, meaning they can dehydrate your body a little. Therefore, it is advised to be careful about consuming too much coffee and drinking still water to restore the natural balance. Speaking of temperature, Studies have shown that too cold or too hot workplaces can make it difficult for office workers to focus on their daily duties. In one survey, 22% of workers complained that a very hot workplace negatively affected their concentration, and another 11% of cold people said that a very cold workplace made it difficult to work. 

These temperature preferences can vary depending on a person's metabolic rate and physiological habits. Research by the University of Technology and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has discovered the maximum productive temperature. It's about 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Meanwhile, overall enthusiasm at work begins to wane as temperatures climb closer to 74 degrees Fahrenheit. So if you're not happy with the temperature in your workplace, it might mean dressing in layers or moving to a conference room where you can adjust the air conditioning to your liking. Perhaps it will help you increase work productivity. And if not, remember the magical reflexology techniques we discussed earlier.

That's it for today. So hey, if you have satisfied your curiosity, share it with your friends
