Ever wish your brain came with a dimmer switch for the late-night buzz and a quick-start button for mornings? We delve into energy hygiene—simple, science-backed habits that clear mental clutter, safeguard your inner peace, and help you navigate your day with less friction and more intention. With Anabel Salimian of ROOTS, now pursuing her PhD in psychology, we unpack how boundaries, sleep cues, and micro-resets turn scattered effort into steady momentum you can actually feel.We start by defining energy hygiene and why it matters more during high-stress seasons like exams, deadlines, and holidays. From calming soundscapes and chakra tones to white noise and gentler playlists, you’ll learn how to create a wind-down that your nervous system recognizes on cue. We contrast nighttime reflection with morning activation: gratitude and reframing to close loops at night, then focused goals and one key priority to spark the day. Anabel shares evidence-informed prompts, and we explore the emotional payoff of writing worries down so they stop running the show.Daytime gets practical with the mindful minute—short resets that pull you out of spirals without blowing up your schedule. We pair that with five-minute walks, sunlight when possible, and clear device boundaries that reduce overstimulation. A favorite moment: the “Fab Five” high five that turned a reluctant ten-minute walk into a 30-minute joy ride, reminding us how small, positive social cues co-regulate stress and lift mood. The through-line is simple: treat habits as dials, not switches. When life gets loud, dial up grounding inputs and dial down stimulation; when energy returns, add morning sparks and protect an easy landing at night.If you’re ready to trade burnout for a steadier baseline—better sleep, clearer focus, and a bit more delight—this one’s your roadmap. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review to tell us the one habit you’ll try this week. Let’s go, y’all—the time is now.Support the show
