I read an interesting piece about managing your own body energy, it is very interesting especially if you have a tiring 9-5 job.

Here is an excerpt:

Learning to manage energy can have dramatic transformational effects for both individuals and organisations. A critical step in this transformation is to stop wasting one’s time by learning to manage energy. We spend time on technical and tactical skills including time management, but too often ignore energy. Without energy, it is not possible to do the things we need to do, no matter how well we manage our time. Time is our most precious resource because we can never get it back; we need to value it and add value to it by managing our energy. (more…)

Some crap I completely forgot are the energy drink such as Red Bull, I don’t understand why they call these things energy drink ?

During 12 years Red Bull was banned in France however it was available elsewhere such as here in Spain and also in Belgium, UK , …. Now the new E.U regulation forces France to sell that crap, vive l’europe.

Are energy drink really harmful ? Well, personally, I don’t know, but I prefer stay far away from these craps.

Caffeine in energy drinks may be harmful

The energy drinks guzzled before cramming for an exam may contain more stimulants than students realize.

The energy drinks’ common supplements, taurine and guarana, are used in the drinks as a natural stimulant, said Charles Yesalis, professor emeritus of health and human development.

“[The supplements] are all trying to mimic the adrenaline your body produces,” Yesalis said.

FAQ on Caffeine and Energy Drinks

Can energy drinks be used as a satisfactory meal replacement?

Although high-caffeine energy drinks do provide some energy (in the form of sugar) and vitamins (some brands), this does not mean that they constitute a suitable meal replacement. They contain very little protein or minerals, and no dietary fibre. They are ‘drinks’, not meal replacers.

Dangers Of Energy Drinks

Grant Connolly creator of the Zpoint process wrote an interesting article about inner peace and the Zpoint process.
I have to say I have difficulty to keep up with this process it is very time consuming and exhausting but I will make an effort after all I’m a “Do or die” type of person.

Excerpt:

“Peace always begins with me!”.

I am not the only person who has this effect on people. There are many long time ZPoint users who have noticed this phenomenon as well. It is important to understand that we are not affecting people in this way, it is the peace we carry inside us that does the job.
