Chronique Fatigue
Introduction
Chronic fatigue is becoming more and more common in all age categories. What do you need to know and how can you handle if you suffer from it. Here you can read which steps to take and what not to do.
How do you become chronically tired?
The answer to this question is very simple: by systematically using more energy than you take in. This happens when you don't disconnect from work (or your phone) in time and don't take enough breaks to relax. You might be able to keep this up for a long time, but it eventually leads to a state of constant fatigue. Poor eating habits and insufficient quality sleep contribute to this progress more quickly.
Is there a difference between chronic fatigue and burnout?
It's all in the name, of course, but chronic fatigue is usually different from burnout. With chronic fatigue, you feel constantly tired. You can still do things, but you lack the drive to act. Other physical and mental symptoms also occur, but fatigue is the central feeling. In our deviation of burnout, chronic fatigue is similar to ‘the overload burnout’
When we talk about burnout, we're usually referring to a more severe form of fatigue. We distinguish five stages and types of burnout. Chronic fatigue is similar to the overload burnout, a situation you can still resolve yourself by making changes in your life. The other types of burnout are a different story; much more serious. You can read about this in the blog post "The Five Types of Burnout." These more severe burnout conditions will completely change your lifestyle. Once you're in burnout, you notice that your energy level is clearly too low, if not zero. You've been going too too long at a too high pace, and suddenly it's all gone. You're become allergic to otherwise "normal" stimuli, such as sounds, light frequencies, crowds, large groups of people, or your phone and internet.
Active versus passive
Although it may sound strange, chronic fatigue involves a deficiency of passive energy. Once this energy is replenished, your active state returns. What is active energy versus passive energy?
Active energy is the energy that is mobilized whenever you do something—thinking, walking, or working with your hands. Passive energy is your energy supply that hasn't yet been mobilized but is ready to be used. With chronic fatigue, your passive energy supply is too low or depleted. When passive energy levels are too low, active energy cannot be mobilized.You need active energy, not only to be mentally and physically active, but also to attract, absorb and clean yourself for the intake healthy new passive energy. How much active energy you still can mobilize determines whether you experience chronic fatigue or a burnout.
There are three things important with chronic fatigue
1. Your energy supply (passive energy) is too low or exhausted
2. Too little energy gets mobilized to circulate, to refresh and to replenish yourself.
3. there will be a pollution of your intestines, liver, kidney and blood because of bad intake of nutrition and not an adequate removal of waste products.
These three together form the vicious circle.
The solution: The 7 steps to get out of chronique fatigue
1. 1. Restore your rhythm. This is the most important thing. Establish a rhythm where you get enough rest and don't overdo it. A rhythm starts with a day and night rhythm. What time do you go to bed and what time do you get up? Then look at your meal times. Then classify your relative activity and rest times. Write it down and become aware of when something is too much and something is too little. Then you can adjust your rhythm.
2. Eat warming foods, by which we mean one-pot meals and soups, because of their warming effect and ease of digestion. As soon as a meal has a single flavor, the body considers it a single food source. Avoid raw foods, a wide variety of foods in one meal, salads, smoothies, or raw vegetables. These consume more energy than they provide. They serve a different function that we don't really need right now.
3. Get extra vitamins, minerals, and energy by eating only fresh, whole foods. These include fresh, local fruits and vegetables, free-range meat from organic farmers, and real, wholesome fats like butter, ghee, coconut oil, lard, and beef fat.
4. Make sure your body is warm and receives extra warmth This includes not only the outer muscles and skin, but also your organs. Wear appropriate clothing, drink ginger tea, and place a heating pad on your abdomen. Use also additional warming herbs such as ginger, garlic, cinnamon, fennel, anise in your teas and foods.
5. Get some gentle exercise, such as walking or doing light exercises. This will help regulate blood circulation, organ function, and intestinal rhythms.
6. Cleanse your intestines and liver with chlorella. It's the only natural cleanser that requires no energy and is also the most thorough and fastest cleanser found in nature.
7. Use energy-building nutrition such as ginseng, maca, aloe vera, clarified butter and almonds as an extra.
Very important with all these steps
Draw up your own plan. No one knows how you feel or react—not your company doctor, not your boss, not your coach, not your boyfriend or girlfriend, and not your mother. Stay true to yourself. This point is just as important as the first.
How do I prevent a relapse.
You climb out of that pit of fatigue by systematically working on it and sticking to your rhythm. Listen to yourself. It's important that you have energy left at the end of the day, a little more than at the beginning. If not, adjust your rhythm. This is how you climb, adapt, and climb further. Gradually, you'll feel more active and can incorporate more activity into your routine. Once you've mastered it and see yourself leading a normal life again, this is also prevention, because now you know exactly how to prevent it.
