“What is a person without energy? He’s worth nothing, absolutely nothing...” - so, perhaps, the writer and specialist in American history Maurice Mendelsohn exclaimed too harshly in his biography of Samuel Clemmens, who entered world culture under the name Mark Twain. If he is at least a little right, then it is especially frightening that complaints about loss of strength are among the most common today. The questions asked by Samira Pavlova about what human vital energy is from a psychological point of view, what its lack may be associated with, and how to help increase it, are answered by psychologist and personal growth coach Alexey Pavlov.

On our website, the topic of increasing vitality has already been given attention (in particular in the recently published article “Energy laws", or in the one published a year ago "How to save energy during the workday"), but these were all less in-depth and meaningful texts - not answering the main questions. So we read and delve into it.

S.P.: I have seen several people with huge and obvious psychological problems who nevertheless had a lot of energy. They constantly participated in some projects, organized something, protested against something, learned something, conquered something.

A.P. And it's quite possible that they didn't think so: that is, they didn't think they had a lot of energy. There are often people who subjectively feel their constant weakness and lack of strength, and on the outside they even look super-energetic. We must clearly understand the difference between appearance and internal state. In this case, external observation is usually more objective.

Generally speaking, I believe that energy is always there! You just need to get to it. Everyone sits on their own gold mine of energy; these riches just need to be mastered.

S.P. What does a person need to do to subjectively feel full of energy?

A.P. The feeling of “I have little energy” is usually associated with the inheritance of previous experiences: lack of energy in childhood, for example. Feeling of powerlessness and depression. And this past experience turns into reality. As with all psychological problems, the earlier such experience is acquired, the more difficult it is to work with the problem, since the conceptual mechanism has not been formed. But in these cases, body-oriented therapy usually helps, for which verbal expression of feelings or previous experiences is not so important.

Usually the state of “no strength” occurs in children who have been forced to do some very unwanted actions, if these children are not prone to rebellion. Someone could resist when he was forced to play a boring violin, go to a hated school, or simply communicate with an unloved aunt, while others unconsciously chose roundabout paths of resistance. Most often these are diseases: constant colds, vomiting, high fever, abdominal pain. The child seemed to be saying to the adults, “Look, I’m submissive, I’m ready to do what you want, but I just can’t, because I’m sick.” The second most common defense after illness is constant fatigue. The same thing works here: “I’m ready, I agree, but I can’t.” This helps the child defend his rights without quarreling with his parents. This is an unconscious protest of a child, formed into a habit that lasts a lifetime.

Another way to deprive yourself of energy is to remember the words of your parents or teachers, “you won’t succeed anyway.” If a child believed them, but lost faith in himself, then he “protected” himself from defeat by a constant lack of strength. The fear of defeat is adjacent to the parental attitude.

Loss of strength can also be a form of self-punishment (here you have to look for what exactly, everyone has something different): a person torments himself with anxious thoughts (read “ How to get rid of negative thoughts"), worries, fears, mental pain that he constantly lacks strength. Sometimes this is not punishment, but an escape from some global experience or unbearable feeling from the past or present. This state of constant “bleeding of energy” with the help of experiences also becomes a habit.

And sometimes a person needs to prove to himself and the world that his parents did not underestimate him, but were right about him when they said that he was a weakling or that nothing would come of him. A “great way” for this is self-sabotage: a person arouses in himself the desire to do something, and then breaks it off. Unconsciously but persistently failing is also an effective method of depriving yourself of energy.

The state of psychological fatigue may also be due to the fact that a person simply does not allow himself to live, does not live for himself.

One more thing: a person has a lot of energy when he does what he wants. Besides, when you don't do what you want, you go against the grain and feel like you're in prison.

S.P. Why, in fact, can a person not do what he wants? Many, on the contrary, are confident that they are doing what they want, but still feel a lack of strength.

A.P. A person often—more often than one would like to think—suppresses his real desires. And what he considers to be his desires are not: these are either the expectations of society or his parents.

Often we humans simply don't know what we want. For example, a person thinks that he wants to be a star, but in fact, he wants attention. A person is sure that he wants to be successful, but in fact he wants to prove to someone (parents, for example, or a more established brother) that he is also good. If someone says they want to be beautiful or attractive, it very often means they want love. It is quite obvious that fulfilling these superficial desires does not bring true satisfaction, and therefore no energy. For example, a woman undergoes several plastic surgeries, painstakingly watches her figure, and dresses very carefully. She fulfills her desire to be beautiful and attractive, but the underlying desire for love is not fulfilled. Or a person has achieved enormous success, he is recognized, appreciated, he is praised, but he has not achieved the unconditional acceptance of his parents. Even if they ended up telling him, “Wow! Well done! We are proud of you! We are happy that we have such a son!”, he understands that this is not an unconditional feeling of parental love and pride for him. He needs them to love and be proud simply because he is their child, that they believe in him BEFORE, and not after he has done something.

Getting to know yourself should help you understand what a person really wants. This would be simple if we did not have psychological defenses that sometimes prevent even the most insightful people see your hidden needs or ways to solve your problems. Working with a specialist, for example, can help here.

One more thing: true desires are often prohibited. Moreover, these are not some erotic or exotic desires. People have strong unconscious prohibitions against resting, spending money on themselves, praising themselves, and succeeding. And here, too, you need to look individually, solve a specific problem.

Superficial desires are often desires of desires. A person thinks that he wants to learn to play the guitar, but for some reason he doesn’t have the strength. But in fact, he does not want to learn to play the guitar: that is, to select an instrument, do exercises, go to a teacher, practice every day - in a word, everything that is pleasant and interesting to someone who really wants to play the guitar. He wants to go out and play beautifully in public. “Be able to”, but not “learn”. He is not interested in the process. And the path to the desires of desires is always longer and more resource-intensive.

S.P. What are true desires and how to recognize them?

A.P. Conventionally, three levels can be distinguished: desires, true desires and basic needs.

If a person lives at the level of desire for desires, then he constantly lacks strength. If at the level of true desires, then he has energy. If at the level of basic needs, then he is highly energetic. Basic needs are the deepest and they are very simple. It's food, warmth, protection, closeness with others. They essentially boil down to one thing: a sense of security. It seems that everything is primitively simple. But if a person’s psychological problems do not allow him to satisfy them, then he receives only echoes of satisfaction, therefore he replaces them. For example, a person deep down dreams of a safe refuge, but he is not able to create it on his own, in his soul. Then he builds a mansion behind a high fence and buys up real estate. But there was still no sense of security. For a while, an illusion of safety arises. It’s easy to understand, but to realize it, to feel it deeply, is very difficult.

“A sea of ​​forces” is an illusion from the vocabulary of a person who has always had few of them, and he dreams of having an inexhaustible amount of them. And so they should just be comfortable and enough.

S.P. How can you help yourself understand your true desires?

A.P. Move deeper: for example, write your desires. Then we look for secondary benefits from them (20 pieces for each, no less). Secondary benefits are deeper desires, more true ones. They can be passed through the same “meat grinder” several more times. All this leads to the discovery of deep-seated needs.

A.P. Take this list and come up with ten ways to make it happen. And then only practice: you need to try, implement.

Of course, it is best to do this with a specialist, because a psychologist must regulate where a person should stop, how to avoid self-destruction or harm to others, what experiences are best “relived” in the office, and not outside, spoiling relationships with someone or causing harm to yourself.

The quality of life is always higher if we move towards our true desires. Although at the first moment a person may become worse, since comfort zone left. It’s like in a massage: during a course of therapeutic massage, people with chronic diseases often experience deterioration at the beginning, and improvement occurs only at the end of the process. In working on mental states, the tendency is the same: at first the discomfort intensifies, because the person lived in a certain way and considered this to be universal laws. You just need to endure it and rethink it. Some go through the cracks, some make compromises. And some retreat and are left alone with their superficial desires and lack of energy.

Another serious fact: we humans are social creatures, and from childhood we have a tendency to suppress ourselves, our impulses and feelings for the sake of social norms and requirements. And when a person is freed from prohibitions, even superficial ones, “bad” things also come out of him: socially disapproved. For example, accumulated anger. This is often scary, but it is important to remember that this is not the true essence of a person, it is ballast that has accumulated over years of prohibitions to express it. Only when this comes out will a person begin to understand what he really wants. And in order to cope with the negative: anger, for example, a specialist is also useful.

S.P. When there is no energy, then there are no desires. Right?

A.P. Usually there are two options here. If a person begins to fulfill desires (and did not fulfill them before, for example, due to attitudes), then one day the attitudes will begin to pull back, resisting this “change of course.” He will be pulled away from his desires ( obsessive thoughts“Why did I do this?”, for example) hence the clinch and rollback: he began to fulfill his desires, spent all his energy and remained defenseless against attitudes. Then we need to work with attitudes, this can be overcome. But often a person breaks down at this point and stops.

It also happens that a person made a mistake with the choice of desires, then this does not return energy, but takes it away: for example, a person starts doing business, but in reality he just wants to be rich and do nothing. And the business makes him work, and this is contrary to his desire.

S.P. Is it necessary to overcome yourself when there is no strength? Is powerlessness overcome in this way?

A.P. Powerlessness is a fairly universal concept. If frustration is a stereotype of behavior, then impotence is the background. Of course, the true quality of life is not built on overcoming oneself. But overcoming can be useful in one-off situations. For example, force yourself to take a successful action. Make you do sports. If overcoming oneself is conscious, fueled by some kind of resource (this could be the help of a group, the help of a psychologist or mentor, a successful book or self-help technique, or something else that will personally allow this person to reach the end of overcoming oneself and win) and clearly planned, it can pay huge dividends.

S.P. What besides awareness and fulfillment of true desires helps increase vital energy?

A.P. Blocks in the form of attitudes, prohibitions and fears on the path of energy must either be removed or made transparent. Accumulated fear, resentment, aggression, pain, guilt and shame consume energy in frightening quantities.

Any deep release of emotions releases energy. When a person first shows repressed emotions in psychotherapy, it is a fountain, and sometimes Niagara Falls: that is, the repressed feeling is very strong, and in order to suppress it, push it back, constantly keep it under control, you need to use the same or greater power. Imagine what a huge waste of energy this is. But often a suppressed feeling or a “forgotten” (forgotten only on a conscious level) experience is not the only one a person has! Five such “depressions”, and there is no reserve of energy for the fullness of life.

“Our world is immersed in a huge ocean of energy, we fly in endless space at an incomprehensible speed. Everything around rotates, moves - everything is energy. We have a huge task ahead of us - to find ways to extract this energy. Then, drawing it from this inexhaustible source, humanity will move forward with giant steps.”

Nikola Tesla

S.P. They often say that you need to express aggression...

A.P. By expressing aggression, a person practices opening and closing the gates of energy. But we have to do it right. There are internal and external criteria for the completeness of expression of feelings; here you need to work with a specialist. In particular, it is important to find the right object of expression of aggression. If you just walk around and swear, you won’t increase your energy.

Let's return to things that help increase vital energy. Sports helps. It sounds banal, but it is an absolute fact. Here you need to look at a specific case: someone needs sports simply to “get” the required level of endorphins that are released during physical activity.

S.P. Do they really stand out? There are people who say that sport does not give them strength.

A.P. First, it is necessary to choose reasonable and useful loads. This requires a good coach or a body-oriented psychotherapist. Secondly, you shouldn’t expect that the pleasure of sports will come after the first time. It will definitely come when the muscles adapt to regular loads, when the level of lactic acid after each workout stops going off scale. And (this is very important morally) the first successes will come. This usually happens after a month of regular work with the body.

So one is enough training in the bench press hall or in fitness. Others need something more specialized: for example, work with clamps, relaxation, yoga.

For high energy, you need to accept yourself as you are. Real case: an elderly woman is very generous, with a rather careless character. She was haunted by the example of her long-dead mother, who ran the household ideally (in the opinion of her elderly daughter). And this woman tried, for example, to start a book of income and expenses. She had a lot of general notebooks lying around her house, where, say, half a page was filled with texts like “30 rubles spent on such and such.” Can you imagine how much energy she spent constantly trying to become a different person? And then how much time was spent experiencing despair because nothing worked out again?

And simple mental hygiene is also important: if you are tired, rest. Don't do anything until you have a clear desire to do something specific. A person does not realize what he wants because he is always tired. Any activity (even the most enjoyable) is costly when you don’t want to do it, but do it.

There are also small things that are resource-generating and work to increase a person’s vital energy:

• Get outdoors. Spend at least an hour a day outdoors. There is nothing mystical here, although if you like, you can understand it mystically. Simply having sufficient oxygen levels works to increase energy. In addition, one of the most common psychoses of our time in big cities is delirium of influence. And this is not surprising, because a person in apartment buildings and offices is constantly surrounded by other people, there is always a ceiling above his head, and people usually walk above him, behind the walls and under the floor. That is why in clinical cases there are so many crazy ideas about rays that are released by aliens, intelligence agencies or evil neighbors. But even for mentally healthy people, apartments (even spacious ones and with good sound insulation - and not everyone has them like that) are “pressured”. Let yourself go for at least an hour a day. In a month, you will be pleased with the results.
• Grooming and the process of self-care itself increases energy. Since in our country there is a very widespread internal ban on attention to oneself, on any kind of “pampering”, people often replace this with worries about their health and sitting in queues to see the doctor. But if you go to spa salons, hair salons, get a massage, buy yourself beautiful things, the effect will be no less.
• Meditation. There is no need for any feats: for five minutes a day, watch your breathing, concentrating only on it. Over the course of a year, such an easy workout will calm your state of mind, improve your metabolism and increase your will and energy.
• Music . Listen and sing yourself. This is the point that people often intuitively come to on their own: that’s why in megacities there are a lot of people wearing headphones: they not only isolate themselves from others, but also try to feed themselves with the energy of their favorite music. I just want to say that here, as in everything else, you need regularity: listen to music before bed, sing several times a week. If possible, sing in a group, even in a choir, even in the car with friends. This is a plus.

S.P. Books on personal growth often advise being here and now. But it is the lack of perspective that usually greatly depresses a person and lowers his energy. This is what (in addition to the obvious difficulties present at the moment) often destroys old people and homeless people: the thought “what will happen to me next?” Does the need for perspective have a right to exist? Or is this a false feeling and we need to fight it?

A.P. Living here and now does not exclude thinking about the future. This concept (“here and now”) has been greatly simplified and... flattened or what? And it lost its meaning. Meanwhile, it only helps the future. It is more likely to be associated with awareness, rather than with a lack of plans for the future. But plans and goals are needed. Viktor Frankl also said that without a goal a person does not exist.

Although, of course, the question is in the settings. Even at 30, you can say, “We’re all going to die one day, so I’m not doing anything.” This, by the way, is where “universal” frustration arises, leading to a complete lack of energy. In this case, you need to change your perspective. Remember the story of Chartres Cathedral? When three construction workers are asked what they are doing here. One answers, “I carry heavy stones,” another says, “I earn money to feed my family,” and the third answers, “I help build the beautiful Chartres Cathedral.” In a sense, we can do the same with our lives and our goals: set a large task and break it down into daily goals and objectives. It is useful for a person to have a chain of daily guidelines from which he cannot deviate.

S.P. What if a person, say, always feels a surge of energy in one geographical point and a decline in another? Let's say he clearly feels energy when he is in Thailand, and when he returns to Moscow he feels a loss of strength? Or does it just seem like it?

A.P. It does not seem. In Thailand, this person does not have stable associative ties reminiscent of the negative moments he experienced, but in his homeland (regardless of what country his homeland is in) he does have negative memories that constantly bring to life. However, ninety percent of them are not realized. Like any unconscious experience, they draw energy onto themselves. In addition, there are often only positive associations associated with another country. There are no everyday problems (more precisely, if we are talking about tourism, they simply have not yet been experienced). And finally, there are countries whose mentality suits us more or less. Sometimes it’s a good idea to change the country to one whose mentality suits you better.

People with a high level of energy have dreams come true faster, they are always in a good mood, do not lack financial resources, are popular with members of the opposite sex, and feel cheerful and active. If everything in your life is happening exactly the opposite, you should pay increased attention to this issue and find out how to increase your energy.

Human energy comes in two varieties:

• physical;
• and free (or vital energy).

Thanks to physical energy, the normal functioning of the human body occurs. It is also necessary to maintain a high tone of free energy.

To ensure that you always have a lot of physical energy, it is important to adhere to the following rules:

• eat well with quality food;
• have a good rest (healthy sleep plays a huge role);
• practice high physical activity;
• regularly visit baths and saunas, in which negative energy dissolves;
• spend more time in nature;
• Yoga and martial arts are very popular.

But to maintain high vitality, physical energy alone is not enough. It is important to have enough free energy. But, before you start increasing it, take care of your physical body. When it feels good, only then begin to increase your free energy potential.

But first, determine what current free energy level you are at. The following symptoms will indicate a lack of vitality:

• reluctance to perform any actions;
• increased drowsiness;
• irritability;
• it's hard to get up in the morning.

Increasing the level of free energy can be done in 2 ways:

• by reducing energy waste;
• thanks to an increase in its free energy potential.

But before we tell you how to increase energy, let's talk about what we spend our free energy on.

Where does free energy go?

Life forces leave us at such moments:

1. When we suffer from any negative experiences. All of them actively deprive you of creative energy (especially the feeling of guilt, anxiety, and fear).
2. During stressful experiences.
3. When we feel like a very important person.
4. Unnatural ways to increase your energy potential (through alcohol, energy drinks). These techniques for increasing the energy balance are very similar to borrowing money at a high interest rate. You take energy today, but tomorrow (or later) you will have to return it in much larger quantities. Therefore, you should resort to these methods as rarely as possible.
5. When we smoke.
6. We waste ourselves on trifles. Ask yourself: “Are you keeping your priorities straight?” It is worth doing this so as not to waste your vitality in vain.

You spend your energy on all kinds of worries, often even on those that are not particularly important to you (worrying about the lives of celebrities, the economic state of the country, the victory of your favorite football team, etc.).

Pay attention only to your closest people (relatives, loved ones, friends - all those whose lives you are able to influence). You can even make a special list in which you put the things of first importance and put in last place what can wait.

At the same time, it is important that 80 percent of your vitality is spent in the first three subparagraphs in this way:

• 50 percent - to the first point;
• 20 – to the second;
• 10 – third;
• the remaining 20 percent goes to everyone else.

Remember that energy wasted on trifles will never come back to you. Therefore, invest it better in more important things, so that later it will return to you a hundredfold.

Having dealt with energy waste, now let’s move on to methods of increasing energy.

How to increase human energy

Dream, set goals

The dreams and real goals that you are trying to achieve fill you with a very significant amount of free energy. But this will only work if the dreams and goals were invented by you personally, and not another person imposed them on you. When the soul and mind are in harmonious relationships with each other for their purposes, you get a lot of free energy to carry out your plans.

If you follow your path, the Universe will help you in every possible way and will always provide the necessary energy fullness!

Believe!

Exchange finances for free energy

Now we are talking about money. When you give them away and don't expect them to come back to you, the Universe fills you with vitality.

Have sex!

Sex is the most powerful source of free energy, so it is worth increasing your energy potential through this pleasant and useful activity.

By keeping your body in good physical shape and using the methods described above to increase the amount of free energy, you will significantly strengthen your biofield and due to this, your life will begin to change for the better.

Wear orange lenses

If you're used to watching TV before bed, the blue light that your monitor emits can interfere with the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone. To combat blue light and protect your sleep, try watching TV with orange lenses to help you relax and forget about tiredness.

Take a cold shower

A hot shower in the morning is a good idea, but a cold shower will give you a huge boost of energy. The flow of cold water will improve the rate of breathing, this is a kind of response to shock, increase oxygen consumption, increase the heart rate as your body works to keep warm.

Eat chia seeds

Add two tablespoons of chia seeds to a cup of unsweetened almond milk, then refrigerate. Sprinkle cinnamon on top and you have a delicious snack.

Cinnamon tea

Instead of running for another can of Red Bull, the next time you feel sleepy, brew yourself a cup of cinnamon tea. The aroma of the spice improves memory and attention.

Take your vitamins

Have a mental health day

If you're constantly stressed at work, you may feel tired, moody, and exhausted. To regain your energy, take a short break and take a day off. A mental health day will allow you to leave your office job and focus on your happiness, which will restore your energy. Be sure to plan your day so that you don't start doing chores. Instead, spend some time reading, walking, or whatever makes you feel alert and energetic.

Drink more water

Humans are 60 percent water, and even moderate dehydration can lead to an energy crisis. To keep your body functioning properly, try to drink eight to ten cups of water a day.

Move

A sedentary lifestyle leads to health problems including cancer, depression and diabetes. It can also cause feelings of lethargy. To boost your energy and protect your heart, try getting up from your desk more often and stretching. This will increase your heart rate and energy levels while reducing your risk of serious health problems.

How to increase human energy and why it is needed

First of all, people who suffer from chronic fatigue should think about how to increase human energy. She's called lack of vitality. If you don’t have enough strength to do things or go towards your goals, your dreams are not coming true and, in general, the situation in all areas of your life leaves much to be desired, most likely it’s a lack of energy.

People with a lot of energy are attractive and confident. Lack of personal strength makes a person insecure, pessimistic, and ultimately unhappy. Increasing a person’s energy makes him interesting to others, successful and attractive.

A novice magician should also think about how to raise a person’s energy. If you want to achieve serious success in witchcraft, you need to increase your level of personal power. It is this that serves as the fuel and guiding force for most spells and rituals.
