Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! Holy moly. This newsletter is LOADED with new studies and news, all from the past week. I hope that you use it to be more informed and empowered, not to get discouraged or frustrated. Especially because today is International Happiness Day.

And happiness. Oh,...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! We're on vacation this week in Florida. For the reasons I wrote about in this article, I'm limiting my use of sunglasses. You might want to try doing the same if you're going on vacation this spring. We're visiting some friends who've had some incredible results from their Amare products, so that's fun to talk about. They're also "bangers" (a new term I learned) in Pickle Ball. We'll play a lot of that while we're here, though Vanessa and I are well below...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! Last week, I asked about what you're struggling with the most. I know sleep is a common concern for people, but I wasn't expecting that it would be the top issue of all. Though it wasn't overwhelmingly dominant, it still took the top spot. I think there's a lot more I could write on the topic to give you guidance and encouragement, so I'll focus more on strategies to improve your sleep with some of my upcoming blog posts. Clearly, there's a need for help...

Fit, middle-aged man and woman running up hill surrounded by green landscape

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! Robin Sharma once said, Remember, we see the world not as it is but as we are. Most of us see through the eyes of our fears and our limiting beliefs and our false assumptions. I was thinking about the assumptions I've made over the years, and how often things turned out for the better when I let go of my assumptions and tried something new. I started thinking about this because I was reflecting on when a friend introduced us to Amare. He told me it was a...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! Nope, today isn’t Thursday. I decided to move the newsletter back a day on from now on. It just works better with our schedule. Speaking of “movement,” did you know that NEAT plays a significant factor in weight management and your metabolic health? NEAT, or non-exercise activity thermogenesis, encompasses the energy expended for everything we do that is not sleeping, eating, or sports-like exercise, including activities like walking, typing, performing...

Man lost in thought at table

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! On February 15, 399 BCE, Socrates, the classical Greek philosopher, was sentenced to death by the Athenian court on charges of impiety and corrupting the youth. Socrates was known for his method of questioning, which often embarrassed and angered many Athenians by exposing their ignorance. His approach to seeking truth and knowledge, as well as his criticism of democracy, made him widely unpopular. He was associated with questioning the traditions of...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! Apparently, now that it's January 4, it's too late to say "Happy New Year," so I'll instead say, "Welcome to the first Nikkola Newsletter of 2024!" Being that we're kicking off a new year, motivation is word and concept people are talking a lot about. But it's more than haning inspirational photos on your wall or writing out goals in a brand new notebook. To feel motivated, you need the right balance of neurotransmitters and hormones. If you don't have...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! It's almost 2024!! As I look forward to next year, you can still expect plenty of fresh content to help you improve your physical health. But in addition to that, I plan to include lots of content to help you feel better, too. Sometimes you don’t know how not–good you feel until you start to feel better. That’s what happened to me this past year. I would’ve never said that I didn’t feel good or certainly would have never said I felt bad, but when I...

Good afternoon Nikkola Newsletterers! It's almost Christmas Time! Don't let the New Year sneak up on you without a plan for what you're going to do.

If you're interested, we're starting a challenge on January 1. It's a challenge that'll not only make you healthier, but happier, too (see below). Enjoy today’s carefully crafted...
