June is Men’s Health Awareness Month—and it’s about time we changed the conversation. In a world where wellness is often gendered, men have been left out of vital conversations around stress relief, natural health solutions, and self-care routines.

At Green Gorilla, we believe wellness should be clean, honest, and accessible for everyone—including the dads, brothers, partners, and friends who often put themselves last.

Breaking the Mold: A New Standard for Men’s Wellness

For decades, traditional masculinity has told men to “tough it out” and keep going. But ignoring symptoms of stress, poor sleep, and body aches leads to long-term health issues. The narrative is shifting—and fast.

More men are turning to natural wellness routines and CBD-infused products to support recovery, energy, mood, and longevity without synthetic additives or harsh chemicals.

What Natural Wellness Looks Like for Him

Here are some core areas where men benefit from plant-powered, proactive care:

  • Stress & Mood Support
    CBD and adaptogens like ashwagandha promote calm and mental clarity—ideal for high performers and everyday stress managers alike.
  • Recovery & Inflammatory response Relief
    Topical CBD balms, infused with botanical oils, help relieve soreness from physical activity or daily wear and tear.
  • Sleep & Energy Balance
    Gentle, non-habit-forming solutions like CBD gummies support rest at night and sustained focus during the day.
  • Grooming & Skin Health
    Men are simplifying their skincare with natural, fragrance-free routines that align with overall well-being.

Fitness After 40: Smarter, Not Harder

As men age, their bodies require a more intentional approach to fitness and endurance. Healthline’s “Men’s Fitness Over 40” highlights the importance of warming up properly to prevent injury and prioritizing flexibility and mobility for long-term joint health. Low-impact, joint-friendly exercises like yoga, swimming, and kettlebell flows are especially beneficial. Equally important is letting go of unhealthy competition—whether with younger peers or a former version of yourself—and instead focusing on what your body needs now.

The takeaway? Consistency, recovery, and balance are more effective than intensity.

Boosting Testosterone—Naturally

Testosterone affects energy levels, muscle mass, and sexual wellness. Fortunately, several science-backed strategies support optimal levels:

  • Strength training & resistance workouts
  • Adequate protein, healthy fats, and carbs
  • Vitamin D + zinc supplementation
  • Stress management (especially reducing cortisol)
  • Sleep quality (7–9 hours per night)

Natural support like CBD, zinc, and ashwagandha may improve hormonal health without synthetic hormones.

Mental Health Matters: Break the Silence

Men are statistically less likely to seek help for emotional lows, restlessness or chronic stress. Yet, mental health is integral to overall wellness.

Men often experience signs of emotional imbalance in subtle ways. These may include mood swings or irritability, withdrawal from loved ones or hobbies, and physical symptoms such as digestive issues or persistent headaches. It can also show up as decreased performance at work or strain in personal relationships—often overlooked but important indicators that support may be needed.

    Reducing stigma starts with normalizing emotional honesty and encouraging men to speak up. Wellness includes the mind—and CBD can support mood stability by interacting with the body’s endocannabinoid system.

    Recognizing and Managing Stress in Men

    Chronic stress can impact sleep, weight, hormones, and heart health. According to Healthline’s research, common symptoms in men include:

    • Muscle tension and fatigue
    • Overeating or drinking
    • Social withdrawal
    • Low libido and motivation

    Natural stress relief tips:

    • Practice mindfulness or breathwork
    • Spend 20+ minutes outdoors
    • Use CBD daily to promote calm
    • Limit alcohol and increase sleep quality
    • Seek support from professionals or loved ones

    Natural Supplements for Men’s Wellness

    Consider including these in your daily routine:

    • Ashwagandha: Supports testosterone, stress response, and energy
    • Zinc: Essential for hormone production and immune health
    • Full-Spectrum Hemp CBD: Supports homeostasis, mood, recovery, and focus

    Let’s Redefine What Wellness Means for Men

    Men’s wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. It’s about taking care of the body and mind, naturally. And it’s time we gave men the permission to show up for themselves without judgment.

    This month, we’re celebrating the men who choose clean, conscious care—and making it easier to get started with organic, hemp-based solutions from Green Gorilla.
