Are you feeling lively? Do you leap out of bed at the crack of dawn, as effervescent as a toddler on fizzy drinks, absolutely rearing to go? Or are you struggling to get through the day, spluttering along on a mixture of caffeine, sugar and adrenaline? Or even cocaine? If you, like most people are veering towards fatigue and exhaustion, when you would rather be leaping around the place like Mick Jagger, this 'Energiser' is for you.

All kinds of things affect our energy levels. The type and quantity of food we eat, the fluids that we drink and the amount and type of exercise we take. We can be lifeless and apathetic one minute and then suddenly whooshed into action simply because of a phone call from a lover, or a win on the lottery or a sudden promotion. Our thoughts, our feelings, our hopes, our goals, our beliefs, other people, in fact everything around us affects our energy levels.

Victoria is a journalist/author/angel-channeller who writes regularly for the Sunday Independent, with a particular interest in psychology, spirituality and in holistic health. She has spent the past fifteen years (and a vast fortune) on experimenting as a self help workshop and new age therapy junkie. She has adopted a healthy lifestyle after having spent many years doing quite the opposite! Ann Kelly is a life coach from Cork, (who has worked wonders on Victoria) and who also presents motivational seminars.

Together, they have designed this day, to offer the very best of what they have learned about energy and motivation. They will be guiding you through the ten most crucial areas where energy can be charged up (or drained). These include eating and drinking habits, hygiene and grooming, (both body and environment) physical exercise and rest, feng shui, thoughts and beliefs, relationships, emotional patterns, goal setting and motivation, working with the chakra system and spiritual connection.

Come comfortably dressed, but be prepared to charge out of your comfort zone, and to cast aside your old habits and behaviours. If you commit to even some of the changes that we are recommending, you can soon expect to be firing on all cylinders!
