So, you want to improve your magical energy?
Eat right, rest well, exercise, avoid stress.

Then what?
Is there some way to increase ones energy without having to do all of these tedious tasks that slowly build up to energy with time?

I have tons of energy I can call upon when I feel the need, without having to adhere to strict rules about diet etc.

[ Though I do adhere to a dietary plan, from medical necessity]

I am a hyper active type of person, naturally speaking.

Energy takes many forms and it's all about the transfer, if you ask me, lol.

Avoiding stress...hmm, not as easy as it sounds and what about the positive stressors we all experience that help keep us alive and safe? Avoid them too?

Simple seeming premises in your post, but not so simple when you begin to delve into them further...

Also, my personal dietary requirements are specific to my medical condition and my idea of a healthy diet will not match with most other people's... just saying, as a point of interest.

There are energy raising techniques and practices that do not require any long term pre- preparation, yes, but there are also those that do. It's a wide and varied World of Magick indeed, that we have to draw from, so perhaps we should not assume that everyone is on the same path and that there is only one way to God/s, or Godhead/s.

IMMV.

Where are you going with this, if I may ask?

I am intrigued and listening now...

Breathe. [gz]

I was afraid it was going to be the answer.

From where.

From my ever active brain and mind and body.

Mental energy.

Emotional energy.

Dance/ trance energy...

Nervous energy.

Kinaesthetic energy.

Vibration...

...And so on.

Renewable too. Very PC. [greensmile] [wink]

It's not like you can't do other things. Nahemah mentioned a few good things.

But, by far, the most potent thing I have done so far is breathing exercises. Pranayama, Qi Gong, the breathing exercises in the IIH. This sort of practice is simply very purifying (in the sense of detoxifying), energizing and rejuvenating. That's not even considering the active cultivation of Life Force and other magical energies, which will be affected in much the same way. Just the practice of purely physical Breath Control is a very nourishing thing for the body, because you are improving your intake of oxygen and all sorts of stuff. And since the physical body is the receiver and transmitter for these forces, a strong body (which means diet, exercise, and breathing are equally important physical maintenance) will naturally allow for stronger internal "magical energy."

Can't argue with that Shin. [thumbup]

Breathing correctly is incredibly important and I forget to mention it, but it's vital to everything else. I like to dance around but don't want to get breathless over it, so good practice in that is important. Gives you stamina too, if you're the actively inclined.

Hmmm. I think that magic is one aspect out of many natural to our universe and cosmos. Chaos has to be more fundamental than magic, though, because magic requires order.

I wouldn't really consider chaos a force or energy, more a state of being. There might be energies more inclined to bring about states of chaos or of order in their effects though.
