I love posts that give you ideas of how you can self-help or self-improve yourself! I am an INTJ introvert that have been subconsciously recharging myself without knowing it. Most of the suggestions on this post has allowed me to recharge but the one that has been most effective for me is reading and journaling. I have been journaling since I was in second grade but am thinking of getting back into it. Recently, I have found reading has helped me the most in getting away from the world and calming down the buzz of thoughts in my head. After a good book, I feel less stress and am ready to socialize again. Thanks so much for the post! 🙂

Great point Shraddha! Yes, definitely, and the amount of sleep I get seriously affects how much “people energy” I have (as well as how much everything-else-energy I have too)

In fact, I think it’s really important that just because introverts characteristically find interacting with people draining doesn’t mean it’s our only source of energy drain: how much we’re looking after ourselves physically plays a big role too!

Sleeping proves being pretty useful too! Before taking a nap I just sit and think about what social interactions I did, whether the day went boring or amazing, and then drift off to sleep to let my subconscious brain do the recharging for me.

Thanks for providing the energy tracker! It will be interesting to use that to see patterns in my energy levels throughout the day. Writing/journaling, walking/running, arts and crafts, and reading are some of my favorite ways to recharge. 🙂
