About this ebook

The Energy Habit is a detailed, practical guide to Sustainable Habit-Based Energy for the Modern Office Worker for readers who want a clear path from understanding the topic to using it confidently in real situations. The book is designed as a structured learning companion rather than a shallow overview: it introduces the core ideas, explains why they matter, then develops them through realistic examples, guided practice, scenario-based explanations, and common mistakes to avoid. Readers are taken step by step from foundational concepts into everyday applications, with each chapter building on the previous one so the material feels progressive, usable, and easy to revisit. The main areas of focus include Where Does Your Energy Actually Go?, Your Personal Energy Profile, Why Willpower Is a Waste of Energy, Hijacking Habits You Already Have, Work in Energy Cycles, Not Hours, The 20-Minute Morning Launch Routine, Fixing the 3 PM Slump, The Desk-Friendly Energy Menu, Micro-Movement: The Two-Minute Reset, Match Your Tasks to Your Energy Level, giving the book a concrete learning arc that moves from orientation and confidence-building to applied communication, problem solving, and independent practice. The writing style is direct, supportive, and accessible, making the book suitable for self-study, classroom reinforcement, professional development, or personal improvement. It emphasizes practical understanding over abstract theory, so readers can immediately connect the lessons to conversations, decisions, habits, and challenges they are likely to face outside the page. By the end of the book, readers should have not only a stronger grasp of the subject, but also a collection of repeatable strategies, useful language patterns, mental models, and practical routines they can continue applying after they finish reading.

About the author

Glendora K. Whiting is a workplace wellness consultant, speaker, and author of *The Energy Habit*. After more than fifteen years in corporate operations — where she ran on coffee, adrenaline, and the conviction that exhaustion was the price of success — she rebuilt her own energy from the ground up and made it her life's work to help others do the same.

A certified health coach and behavior-change specialist, Glendora blends sleep science, circadian research, and habit psychology into practical programs for ordinary working people. She has worked with teams at startups, Fortune 500 companies, hospitals, and universities, leading workshops on sustainable productivity, attention management, and energy recovery. Her writing has appeared in leading wellness and business publications, and she publishes a monthly newsletter on sustainable energy at work.

Glendora is known for a straightforward, evidence-based style that avoids both guilt and gimmicks. Her core conviction, developed over years of coaching and consulting, is that lasting energy is not reserved for the naturally disciplined — it is a set of skills anyone can build, one small habit at a time.

She lives in Portland, Oregon, where she practice what she preaches: fixed wake times, long walks, and a firmly protected evening wind-down hour.
