Any suggestions for a woman on the go who wants to keep her positive energy up?

I'm not so much into fasting but I do know how to generate energy (even when I feel like it's impossible.)

Whenever I get to the exhausted phase which can happen with a busy lifestyle (happened recently) I often find one of the five basics is not in balance. 1.food. 2. sleep. 3. hydration 4.exercise 5.grounding.

You can have the best superfoods,the best crystals and ionisers by your side but if one of the five basics are lacking then I find the culprit. Like well oiled cogs in a machine; good ten hours of sleep, balanced food, 2-3 litres of water and something simple as Tai Chi, stretching or a little aerobic can get the cogs spinning energy once again.
Looking at it from a bigger picture perspective it's often really simple.

Sometimes fasting when one of these aren't in balance can make things worse. Being in a good position to fast is important. It can wipe the slate clean so I hope you have a good Teacher.

Whenever I get the wheels turning and pouring out energy it's good to have a little motivation or extra support, I like to listen to tapes or read inspiration just for that push if my days seem to be the same everyday. Energy generates more energy. Like something as simple as a drop of inspiration can do it. The intricate balance of chemicals and hormones in our bodies can make or break our moods, energy and motivation. It can be so simple and obvious to fix that people forget that we can take care of that ourselves by keeping it mighty simple.

As for the grounding, sitting with bare feet in the earth for just a few minutes a day reduces inflammation and normalises a lot of functions in the body. http://getlongevitynow.com/bare-your-feet-grounding-video/

I talk from experience and I have been able to generate superhuman energy powers in the most no brainer, no fancy or gimmicky, complex or mysterious ways.

With most puzzles in life, look to nature, and follow her.
Best of Luck.

I've noticed that gratitude helps a lot. I recently read a very cute children's book. Cute and poignant.

Pollyanna

You may have read it as a child.

It's all about the "Glad game" that you play in your life. Find things to be glad about. Teach that to others. Soon enough, your life will be filled with joy.

This is an example of "fake it til you make it"
