Our natural state of being is vibrant and happy to be alive. Yet, there can be times when we feel run down and worn out. This does not mean that we are lazy or unfit for the tasks in our lives; it means that we need to recharge our batteries and find a way of keeping them charged. Vitamins and extra rest can be very helpful in restoring our physical bodies. And if we are willing to delve deeper, we may discover that there is an underlying cause for our exhaustion.
Whenever you are feeling run down, take an honest look at how you have been thinking, feeling, and acting. You will likely find a belief, behavior pattern, or even a relationship that is out of alignment with who you really are. Perhaps you believe you have to be perfect at everything, or you have been bending over backward to get people to like you. Maybe you are dealing with mild depression or simply have too much on your plate right now. There also may be people or situations in your life, which are draining your energy. Once you get clear on the root cause, you can weed it out and better direct your flow of energy in the future.
In time, you might notice that the reasons you feel run down have less to do with how much you are doing and more to do with the fact that, in your heart, you would rather be doing something else entirely. From now on, try and listen to what your heart really wants. It may take meditation or just a moment of silence to gain the clarity you need, but it is well worth the effort. When you know what you truly want to do and honor that in all situations, you will find that getting run down is a thing of the past.
