/Sounds like "GEH" (as in "get") + "bah" (as in "bar")/
Extreme laziness, the heavy immovable kind that vetoes any productive activity. In Mexico, "güeva" is not just tiredness: it is that specific gravitational pull toward doing absolutely nothing, where no plan, obligation, or urgency can move you.
“Me dio una güeva horrible ir al gimnasio y al final me quedé en casa.”
“I was way too lazy to go to the gym and ended up just staying home.”
“Hoy tengo una güeva que no puedo ni con el móvil.”
“I'm so wiped out today I can barely look at my phone.”
