SEASON 11 EPISODE 13

Positive Energy in Your Working Life

Energy is your life force—and it is finite. How are you choosing to spend it during your 9-to-5?

In this episode, I’m joined by Beverly Akurst, owner of Ocean Breath Yoga and a nature wellness guide. We explore the “Energy Body” and how simple shifts in your morning routine and office environment can prevent the dreaded mid-afternoon brain fog.

Director’s Note: Despite a literal storm causing technical difficulties during recording, the calm energy Beverly shares is exactly what every busy professional needs to hear.

The Rhythm of Living

The 2-Minute Yoga: Yoga isn’t just a studio class. It’s taking two minutes upon waking to breathe and move your spine before checking your phone.
The Life Force: We are born with a finite amount of energy (Prana). Recognize what activities are “depleting” vs. “powerful” for your unique body.
New Eyes Theory: Every morning, your body replaces the cells you use to see. Wake up and look at your world with “new eyes” before the rush starts.
Environment Matters: Small sensory changes—like a citrus candle or a living plant—can fundamentally shift your mental energy at work.

Workplace Energy Hacks

Feed the Senses

Use a zesty blend of orange and lemon scents to evoke warm summer memories. Scents can lower your heart rate and settle your intentions for a busy day.

The Power of Living Things

Having a living organism (like a hardy houseplant) in your office provides a biological boost that fake plants simply can’t replicate.

Perspective Shifting

Don’t stay stagnant. Every few months, move your chair or your monitor. Changing your physical view helps your brain reflect on your work from a new angle.
