What if our constant fatigue comes from our habits? This activity will allow us to get rid of it according to professionals.
Feeling exhausted without knowing exactly why… This is a resentment that many of us face on a daily basis. According to the explanations of several experts and relayed by Vogue France, this is due to our multitasking behavior. We cook in the middle of a phone conversation or watch a series by scrolling our phone. Basically, our brain does not have a minute to itself, it constantly receives information… To avoid losing its energy every second, the pros give their technique!
How about we stop for two minutes?
Constantly doing something is a way to make fatigue normal and it is far from being favorable to our well-being. To overcome it, Cristina Barrous, expert in nutrition and well-being, recommends taking the time to consciously slow down for a short period of time. »The big mistake we make in this regard is not stopping, staying on autopilot all day. That’s why I recommend taking 2-minute micro-stops at least 10 times a day, being mindful of what you’re doing, and not doing two things at once. It can be, for example, to apply your cream and only to apply your cream (without listening to a podcast at the same time, for example). Or prepare dinner without checking your emails at the same time“, she explains.
Being multitasking, what are the dangers?
The wide digitization of our tasks facilitates multitasking behavior. However, it also promotes the dangers associated with this behavior. Constant fatigue is therefore considered normal. Pau Rodrigo, expert in personal development, has also explained to our colleagues from Vogue that the brain is not made to chain actions simultaneously. He adds that this decreases efficiency and leads to stress. Taking the time to let the brain breathe sends a positive message back to it.
« If we run, the body and the brain understand that there is a danger behind this emergency and the brain gives the order to secrete cortisol, the stress hormone which is also inflammatory and ends up generating, if it is prolonged over time, gastric problems, joint pain, insomnia. If we slow down and concentrate on each step of the task, our brain interprets that there is no danger and this is how we increase our concentration and even enjoy what we are doing.“explains Laura Palomares, psychologist at Avance Psicólogos.
