What should I do if I always doze off at work?

In the hot summer, we always feel sleepy and cannot concentrate, which seriously affects our work efficiency. To change this undesirable phenomenon, you can place a pot of green plants in the office to add to the atmosphere; walk more and take more rests, don't let yourself be too tired; eat more protein-rich foods; you can also have a massage in the office, such as finger tapping massage, hot stone massage for the neck to feel comfortable, etc.

1. Place plants in the office: Plant a pot of rosemary in the office. Not only does it beautify the environment and add to the atmosphere, but studies have shown that its scent can lift your spirits.

2. Walk more and rest more: When you are tired, you might as well walk out of the office and sit in the sun for 10 minutes. This can help you reset your biological clock. At the same time, breathing fresh air can also help you lower the level of melatonin secretion (sleep hormone).

3. Eat more protein-containing foods : Eat more protein-containing foods, such as fish, meat, eggs, beans and other foods. Carbohydrate foods should be eaten less, such as rice, pasta, etc. Because these carbohydrates stimulate the release of serotonin in the blood, causing drowsiness.

4. Office massage micro-exercise improvement

1. Micro-exercise: In the office, you can do some micro-exercise. For example, shake your shoulders back and forth and take a deep breath with each movement for 2 minutes to reduce drowsiness.

2. Finger tapping massage: When you feel dizzy, you can try tapping your head gently with the tips of your fingers. This is a good way to refresh yourself. First tap the top of the head, then divide the back of the head into two areas, left and right, and tap carefully and gently. There is no specific technique, but the force should be gentle, otherwise the person will become more dizzy. In addition, a golden triangle thymus can be drawn from the bottom of the neck to the nipple. Tapping this area with your fingers can relieve chest tightness and stagnation, make the chest more open and the breathing smoother, relieve fatigue and refresh the mind.

3. Hot stone massage for a soothing neck: Choose a warm and smooth stone, preferably one with a relatively flat side. Place it in hot water so that the stone is warm. Slowly slide the stone along the shoulder and neck line to allow the heat to reach the shoulder and neck area, which will bring warmth and comfort, and sweep away fatigue.

5. Eat a small amount of dark chocolate: Eat a small bite of dark chocolate because it contains healthy fats and antioxidants, and a small amount of caffeine can boost your spirits.

6. Use peppermint oil: drop a few drops of peppermint oil on your hands, rub your hands together, and then apply it on your face. Peppermint has an energy-boosting aroma that ensures you stay awake all night.
