Why Does Your Energy Leak Out During the Work Day?

The Surprising Reason You're Exhausted by 5PM

It’s 4pm on a typical workday, and you can barely keep your eyes open. Your morning started out productive, but now your focus is waning, your motivation has evaporated, and all you can think about is crawling into bed. Sound familiar?

I’d start the day with the best of intentions — a healthy breakfast, some morning meditation or a breathing exercise.. But inevitably, usually right after lunch, the energy drain would hit me like a ton of bricks.

You’re not alone. So many of us start the day full of energy and good intentions, only to find ourselves completely drained by the end of the workday. We blame it on the endless meetings, the demanding boss, the overflowing inbox. But what if there was something else at play?

I tried many things to fight it. Extra coffee, 5-minute walks around the block, low-blue light on my pc-monitor..But nothing seemed to really solve the problem. I resigned myself to the idea that maybe I was just destined to be a low-energy person. That my “afternoon slump” was an unavoidable part of life.

Suck it up and power through, right? Wrong.

But then, after years of dragging myself through the day and failing with many things I tried, I finally uncovered the real reason my energy levels always seemed to crash and burn.

It wasn’t lack of sleep, or poor nutrition, or even stress (although those things certainly do not help). The surprising energy suck that was draining my battery day after day?

Well, it was much simpler than I thought.

But before I reveal it, a short break before we head on:
