Hello, everyone.
2
Welcome back to 8 Minute English on the Learn English Podcast channel.
3
I'm Nathan, your host, and today we're diving into a topic that probably speaks to many of you.
4
So, let me guess.
5
Are you feeling tired right now?
6
I mean, why else would you click on this episode?
7
Have you ever wondered why you always seem to look or feel exhausted?
8
Well, you're not alone.
9
Many people deal with this issue every single day, including my friends.
10
You know, I was talking to a friend yesterday and they said,
11
Nathan, why do I always look so tired?
12
At first I laughed and said,
13
well, maybe you need more coffee.
14
But then I thought about it.
15
Why do so many of us feel and look tired all the time?
16
It's not just about sleep, right?
17
There's so much more going on.
18
Maybe it's the stress from work,
19
or maybe it's sitting in front of a screen all day.
20
And let's not forget things like dehydration or just not taking proper breaks.
21
So I started reading about it,
22
and wow, there's so much to learn about why we feel this way.
23
And here's the thing.
24
If you've ever wondered why you feel drained or why people tell you,
25
you look tired, you're in the right place.
26
Today, we're going to dig into what's behind that tired look and feeling.
27
And more importantly, what you can do to fix it and feel better.
28
Oh, and stick around, because we'll also hear a great conversation between three friends sharing their experiences.
29
Plus, don't forget to grab our free PDF with tips and key phrases.
30
It's a great way to keep learning after the episode.
31
Ready?
32
Let's jump right in.
33
Hey, Mia, you look a bit tired today.
34
Everything okay?
35
I've noticed that too.
36
What's been going on?
37
Ugh, I feel exhausted.
38
I've been waking up with these dark circles under my eyes lately.
39
And it's not just that.
40
Even simple things like folding laundry or making breakfast leave me feeling completely drained.
41
That sounds tough.
42
Have you been getting enough rest or is something else going on?
43
I'm not sure.
44
I think it's a mix of not sleeping well and just feeling overwhelmed lately.
45
I think it's because I'm not sleeping well.
46
I stay up late scrolling through social media,
47
and it's hard to fall asleep after that.
48
Oh, that'll do it.
49
Blue light from your phone can mess with your sleep.
50
Yeah, I read somewhere that it stops your brain from producing melatonin,
51
the hormone that helps you sleep.
52
That's interesting.
53
I didn't know it could be that serious.
54
It is.
55
And not sleeping well can affect more than just your energy.
56
It can also make your skin look dull and give you those dark circles.
57
I actually read about this dermatologist who said,
58
lack of sleep slows down your skin's repair process.
59
That makes sense.
60
I've also noticed my hair feels weaker lately.
61
Could lack of sleep affect that too?
62
Absolutely.
63
Poor sleep can lower your body's ability to produce keratin,
64
which is essential for healthy hair.
65
Okay, so lack of sleep is definitely one problem.
66
But do you think my diet could also be a reason?
67
For sure.
68
If you're not drinking enough water or eating foods with vitamins,
69
that could definitely make you look more tired.
70
Exactly.
71
Foods like spinach or oranges are full of vitamin C,
72
which helps brighten your skin and keep you energized.
73
Oh, and don't forget about iron.
74
Low iron levels can make you feel fatigued and even dizzy.
75
Hmm.
76
I'll start drinking more water and adding more fruits and veggies to my meals.
77
That's a great start.
78
Oh, and don't forget to take breaks during work.
79
Yeah, sitting at a desk all day can make you feel more sluggish and even impact your mental health.
80
So, what should I do?
81
Try the 20-20-20 rule.
82
Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
83
It's great for your eyes.
84
And get up and stretch every hour.
85
It helps with circulation and keeps you more focused.
86
That's actually really helpful.
87
Thanks, guys.
88
Anytime, Mia.
89
Remember, small changes can make a big difference.
90
Let us know how it goes.

110
Now, let's discuss two quick questions from today's talk.
111
Question 1.
112
Why is it important to take breaks during work?
113
Taking breaks helps your body rest,
114
improves blood flow, and keeps your mind fresh.
115
What do you think?
116
Question 2.
117
How does staying hydrated affect your energy levels?
118
Drinking water keeps you energized and prevents fatigue.
119
Have you noticed a difference when you stay hydrated?
120
Before we wrap up, let me remind you of today's key takeaway.
121
changes can lead to big improvements.
122
Did you know that poor sleep can impact more than just your energy levels?
123
A fun fact is that sleep-deprived people are 20% more likely to make poor decisions,
124
according to a study by Harvard.
125
That's because sleep is when your brain processes information and recharges.
126
Another fascinating study by Stanford found that staying hydrated can improve focus by up to 14%.
127
So, if you've been feeling scatterbrained or unfocused,
128
maybe grab a glass of water.
129
Let's talk about screen time for a moment.
130
Did you know the average person spends seven hours a day looking at screens?
131
Excessive screen time, especially at night,
132
can trick your brain into thinking it's still daytime.
133
This delays the release of melatonin,
134
which is the hormone that makes you feel sleepy.
135
A tip here, try putting away your phone an hour before bed,
136
And here's something cool.
137
Standing up every 30 minutes can reduce the risk of heart disease by 30%.
138
This comes from a study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
139
Regular movement not only benefits your body,
140
but also helps refresh your mind.
141
So, what's one small change you can make today to feel less tired?
