What is energy? The science of ATP and mitochondria vs.Vibration of energy you feel Ask, can I feel it? How do you feel? What is a low energy vs. high The exercise Christy uses for instant energy: First, develop awareness: What do you want to change? What are you doing now? Next: What do you want to do about it? What actions do you want to change? Write it down. Make a decision about what you want to keep, and what you want to change. Imagine yourself more powerful: Who is your superhero? What’s your posture when you physically feel your superpowers? Get instant energy: Assuming a different posture, a powerful stance gives you an instant shot of oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine – all feel good hormones – that provide instant energy.

Swimmers using a superhero posture image hold their chest open and core strong making them better able to maintain a form in the water that enhances ability to go faster with less energy. It can work with you too for coping with every day stressors.
