Why Am I Always Tired?
Tiredness and low energy don't stop when we start the working day. They can affect how we feel, how we concentrate and how we get through an already busy day.
Why Am I Always Tired? is an engaging, evidence-based talk designed to support employee wellbeing by helping people understand what might be affecting their energy — and what they can realistically do about it.
What we'll cover
From not eating enough during a busy day to caffeine, sleep and stress, the talk explores some of the common reasons we feel exhausted, including:
Eating enough and eating regularly
Protein, carbohydrates and overall diet quality
Iron, vitamin B12, vitamin D and other key nutrients
Caffeine and the afternoon slump
Sleep, stress and the mental load
When persistent tiredness might need further investigation
Most importantly, employees leave with practical changes they can use in their everyday lives.
