[What to do when you just can't find the motivation | Head massage recommended for improving brain fatigue and the autonomic nervous system]

We all have days when we just can't find the motivation or feel like doing something. In fact, the cause is often brain fatigue or an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system . Especially in modern society, information overload from smartphones and PCs, long hours of desk work, and lack of sleep can all lead to brain fatigue and a drop in energy.

Here we will introduce some easy tips to boost your motivation at home, as well as more effective solutions.

What causes lack of motivation?

Brain fatigue and autonomic nervous system disorders have the following effects:

• Poor concentration

• Difficulty waking up in the morning, fatigue

• Mood swings

• Poor sleep quality

  
  

If left untreated, these conditions can become chronic and affect daily life and work performance, which is why it is important to address them early.

Self-care to boost your motivation, starting today

1. Exposing yourself to sunlight in the morning or during the day helps regulate your body clock and releases serotonin, which can lead to a more positive mood. 15 to 30 minutes in the morning is particularly effective.

2. Take a deep breath and be aware of "abdominal breathing" by inhaling for 4 seconds and exhaling for 8 seconds. This will regulate your parasympathetic nervous system and clear your mind.

3. A 15-minute nap is a great way to reset your brain. Be careful, as sleeping for more than 30 minutes can have the opposite effect.

4. Stimulate with acupressure

5. Hegu (between the thumb and index finger)

6. Just lightly press the Baihui point (top of the head) to feel refreshed.

7. Gently massaging your temples and sides improves blood flow, which helps improve your concentration and mood.
