In August, our ZingTip focused on recognizing and creating good energy and why it’s important. A workplace with good energy can cultivate great customer service, encourage employees to go above and beyond, and ultimately bring your business financial success.

While it’s great to know WHY good energy is important, it is challenging to figure out HOW. Not only has it been a difficult year, but as we get into winter, we will have dreary days and many will experience the “winter blues.” Sometimes getting back to basics and doing simple things can make a significant difference. If you have low energy, consider any of these ways to manage it:

• Go for a walk
• Grab a bite to eat or a drink
• Make a gratitude list
• Take a few deep breaths
• Turn on an upbeat song
• Light a candle or turn on an essential oil diffuser

We are all in charge of managing (and protecting) our own energy, but sometimes it doesn’t hurt to help one another out. If you notice someone has low energy, bring them their favorite drink, suggest they get some fresh air, or provide an encouraging word. Having good energy can help us all and, in turn, positively impact our workplace and community as a whole.
