The constant rush of daily life, endless to-do lists and not enough hours in the day – no wonder more and more people are struggling with low energy and a sense of ongoing exhaustion, even without any physical exertion.
But fatigue isn’t just a sign of poor sleep. It’s our body’s way of signalling that something is out of balance. And balance – physical, emotional and mental – is key to our overall wellbeing. At the centre of this equilibrium lies the endocannabinoid system, which plays a crucial role in regulating stress, sleep, mood and energy levels.
What causes fatigue and lack of energy?
Fatigue has many faces and even more causes. Most often, it’s a complex interplay between our lifestyle and internal imbalances. Poor or disrupted sleep hinders proper recovery, while an unbalanced diet and dehydration affect the body’s metabolism and ability to produce energy.
Ongoing stress pushes the body into a constant “fight or flight” state, eventually draining the adrenal system and leaving us feeling burned out. A lack of physical activity reduces circulation and oxygen supply to our cells, while hormonal imbalances or conditions such as anaemia, thyroid issues or chronic inflammation can further reduce energy levels.
Mental wellbeing also plays a significant role – depression, anxiety or emotional restlessness can all contribute to both physical and mental fatigue.
Recognising the signs of low energy
Many of its symptoms creep in quietly and are often dismissed as part of a busy day.
Signs that may point to persistent fatigue include: constant sleepiness even after sufficient rest, trouble concentrating or remembering things, irritability, lack of motivation, frequent headaches, or a feeling of heaviness in the body or unexplained muscle aches.
When we ignore these signs, they can gradually evolve into a chronic condition that significantly affects our quality of life.
What can we do to restore energy?
The good news? With a few thoughtful changes, we can guide the body back into balance. Supporting the body holistically – with rest, activity and nourishment – is key.
- Sleep: the foundation of recovery
Restful, uninterrupted sleep (7 to 9 hours per night) is essential. It allows the body to regenerate, while melatonin supports the natural sleep-wake cycle. A relaxing evening routine, a calm environment and switching off screens can make a big difference. At Hemptouch, we recommend CBD Spray Good Night 600 mg, a gentle evening ritual that helps ease the body and mind into deeper rest.

- Balanced nutrition and hydration
Food is fuel – and the quality of that fuel determines how efficiently the body runs. A diet rich in protein, healthy fats, complex carbohydrates and fibre helps to stabilise blood sugar levels and prevent energy crashes. And don’t forget hydration. We often feel tired simply because we’re not drinking enough water.
- Physical activity – moderate but consistent
Movement boosts circulation, oxygenates the body and uplifts mood thanks to endorphins. No need for intense workouts – just 30 minutes of walking, gentle stretching, swimming or yoga can make a big difference. After activity, soothe your muscles with the Pristine Forest Body Lotion, a nourishing formula that leaves skin feeling soft and comforted.

- Managing stress with natural support
Stress is one of the leading causes of chronic fatigue. Meditation, mindful breathing and carving out quiet time for yourself can help calm the nervous system. This is also where support for the endocannabinoid system becomes essential, as it plays a vital role in regulating stress, mood and energy levels. CBD Oil Amber 600 mg is an excellent choice for everyday support of the endocannabinoid system and overall balance. CBD oils help ease tension, sharpen focus, and restore a sense of inner calm.

When fatigue becomes chronic or is linked to underlying conditions
If fatigue persists, especially alongside chronic inflammation or more intense symptoms, stronger support may be needed. In these cases, we recommend CBD paste 16% or 30% for its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to regulate immune function and support the body’s recovery processes.

atigue is often a sign that something deeper is out of alignment. Instead of quick fixes, we can choose a gentle path back to balance – by reconnecting with ourselves. With quality sleep, nourishing food, regular movement, a calm mind and the natural support of CBD, we give the endocannabinoid system the tools it needs to restore our energy and vitality. When the body finds its rhythm again, energy naturally follows. And with it comes a sense of ease, lightness and resilience in everyday life.
