TMS #019: The 5 Most Common Causes of Lack of Energy

Are you feeling tired but not sure why?

You’re not alone. Lack of energy is a common problem that many factors can cause.

In this post, we’ll look at the five most common causes of lack of energy so that you can get to the bottom of what’s holding you back from feeling your best!

Energy seems to be one of the most elusive things in life. We all want more but must figure out how to get it.

If you’re tired and feel drained, chances are you’ve tried many things to increase your energy levels. Maybe you’ve tried eating healthier and exercising more often. Perhaps you’ve even considered taking up a new hobby or getting involved in some social activity.

Unfortunately, these things don’t always work—and if they do, they only seem to offer temporary relief from your fatigue. So what gives energy? Why can’t we feel as energetic as we want to feel?

Here are the five common causes that will leave you feeling exhausted almost every day:

Proper sleep is essential for health. Many studies have shown that a lack of sleep can lead to serious health issues.

Stress and long-term diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and obesity are more likely to happen if you don’t get enough sleep. Sleep deprivation also makes you more susceptible to infection. Lack of sleep links to everything from depression to anxiety! If you’re not getting enough shut-eye (about 7-8 hours), it’s time to make some changes in your life!

You can do this by keeping a regular schedule. Go to bed at the same time each night and wake up at the same time every morning. If you have trouble falling asleep, try avoiding caffeine after lunchtime. Exercise regularly (but not right before bed). Also, limit your alcohol intake; too much booze can cause you to stay awake longer than usual.

You might feel like you’re running on empty, even though you’ve already had a whole night’s sleep. This can be caused by poor nutrition, dehydration, and other factors. If you want to increase your energy levels, consider what fuel your body needs and how much it’s getting.

The food we eat affects our energy levels depending on when we exercise or work. The optimal way to consume certain foods depends on whether they are digested quickly or slowly. This varies from person to person. Some people digest foods more rapidly than others. For example:

You’ll want to eat a balanced diet to increase your energy levels. It includes complex carbohydrates (like whole grains), proteins (like lean meats and nuts), and healthy fats (like avocado). These foods are digested slowly by the body, which helps provide sustained energy throughout the day. If you want to feel the effects of what you eat right away, try eating some fruit before your workout or a small snack afterward. I suggest giving up white sugar (cakes, cookies, etc.) for a week or two and seeing how you feel afterward. Looking forward to your results.

Stress and anxiety are both common causes of lack of energy. Stress can be caused by many things, including:

The best way to manage stress is through mindfulness meditation. This involves focusing on your breathing and calming yourself while meditating. You can try it anywhere, even during a hectic day at work! Guided imagery exercises are another option. In these, you think about something relaxing, like going on vacation or spending time with your family at home.

I recommend trying out the Youtube Channel Great Meditation, which I also use daily. These techniques can help you feel less anxious about everyday things that stress you out (such as being late for an important meeting).

Dehydration is a common cause of fatigue. It can lead to other symptoms like headaches and irritability. How much water you should drink varies based on age and activity level. The daily recommendation is about 2 liters for men and 1.5 liters for women. That’s eight 8-ounce glasses per day!

If you’re feeling fatigued or thirsty more often than usual, it could be because your body isn’t getting enough fluids. Some signs that you may be dehydrated include:

Water is essential for your body to function properly, so getting enough every day is important. If you’re feeling fatigued or thirsty more often than usual, try drinking more water and see if that helps!

A few common medications can cause fatigue, including antidepressants and birth control pills. If you are taking any of these drugs and are tired, talk to your doctor about switching to a different drug or changing the dose. If none of these options sound right, ask if any other options could help your mood and energy level.

Other prescription drugs may also cause fatigue by changing the way you sleep or making you less active (such as NSAIDs). As with medicines that affect energy levels, it’s best to talk to your doctor about possible side effects before trying anything new.

I hope that by reading this article, you’ve learned more about how a lack of energy can affect your daily life. While there are many different causes of this problem, they all share one thing: They’re often preventable!
