Default Re: How to avoid sleepy mood in the afternoon

Hi,

Try some exercise in the morning - it will keep you fresh all day. I do 10 suryanamaskar in the morning (takes only 15 mts) and it keeps me feeling fresh all day - no drowsiness in the afternoon.

hi,

Its better to take rest for a while if you are very tired. If you want to avoid sleep everyday,better watch some good movie or keep yourself busy in some activity.

Thumbs down Re: How to avoid sleepy mood in the afternoon

Hi,

I don't know if u are a housewife or a student.
But who ever you are the only way you can avoid sleeping in the afternoon is by
getting involved in some activity esp. an activity that you have interest in.
If you want to learn a new technology then a computer and internet would would open a vast variety of oppurtunities.
If you are interested in Arts then you can do lots of work like painting,knitting etc.
Whatever it is you are interested the passion you have will drive everything away.

And as other ladies here mentioned if you are too tired cos of a bad night or too much work have a nap for a little while.

I have been there. Even i used to feel sleepy a lot esp. after i became a housewife after working for a while.Once i ignited my interests again i stopped sleeping in the afternoon.

Hi all,

Listening to some good music aloud simultaneously while doing other works can drive off your sleep It will keep you active .If you feel really tired you can take a small nap.

Regards,
ManuuRaghuu

best of luck

Gud Question. My son comes home by 1.30. Then feed him which normally takes 1 hr. By then the time is 2.45. 15 minutes for mentally preparing my son to finish off with his H/W & revision and kalaass its 3.00. Got it my dear?
