Tracking Your Energy

Energy is the strength and vitality you have to perform physical or mental activities like exercise, concentration, or other daily activities. Energy levels can be impacted by many different things such as stress, health conditions, and the food we eat.

Why track your energy?

Fatigue and low energy can be a symptom of nutrient deficiencies, poor diet, too little or too much exercise or other health factors. Tracking your energy levels along with considering other lifestyle factors like your eating habits, stress levels, and exercise can help you identify patterns in your energy levels.

View your trends

When you track your energy levels in your journal, you’ll be able to see a visualisation of your energy levels overtime in your Trends view. In your Trends view, you’ll get a snapshot of how your energy levels change overtime as well as your average Energy Levels, helping you to identify any patterns and know when you’re feeling more or less energetic than usual.

Tips for Tracking your Energy Levels

• Aim to track your energy levels at least once per day! Tracking once per day will help you see how your energy changes day to day so that you can identify patterns.

• You can track more if you need to. If you’re an active person, you might find it helpful to track your energy before and after workouts

• Add context to your post if you need to. There’s a notes section so that you can give context as to why you may be feeling particularly energetic or not so much.

• Try to track your energy at all levels. Tracking all levels of energy can be helpful for you to set a personal reference point of your energy levels.

Levels you can track

• High – When you feel ‘ready for anything’

• Medium – You feel good and productive

• Low – You feel tired and slow

• Fatigued – You feel exhausted and unable to get through the day
