Increase Your Vitality and Transform Your Day with Smart Hydration

Published on by Nikken

Smart hydration begins with self-awareness. Instead of waiting until thirst sets in, make hydration a consistent habit throughout the day. Starting your morning with water gently awakens your system after hours of rest, while sipping regularly throughout the day helps sustain energy and balance.

Every cell in the body depends on water to function optimally. Hydration supports circulation, digestion, temperature regulation, detoxification, and mental clarity. When you’re under-hydrated, you may feel tired, unfocused, or sluggish—signals that your body is asking for better support.

When thinking about enhancing energy, focus, and overall vitality, many individuals may look to nutrition, movement and rest. One of the most powerful—and often overlooked—foundations of feeling good every day is hydration. Smart hydration is not just about drinking copious amounts of water. Smart hydration truly supports the body from within.

Quality matters. You may drink a lot of water, but PiMag® water replicates natural sources of water and may provide transformative hydration. Inspired by the natural qualities of water found in nature, PiMag® water is alkaline and filtered through mineral stones in the PiMag® Waterfall. These stones are imbued with copper ions, mirroring the way water absorbs minerals as it flows through natural environments.

Many people find PiMag® water lighter, smoother, and more refreshing, making it easier—and more likely to drink more often to stay hydrated. This consistent water intake supports digestion, circulation, and overall energy levels throughout the day.

Hydration plays a vital role in supporting an active lifestyle. Muscles, joints, and connective tissues rely on water to remain flexible and resilient. When your body is well-hydrated, movement feels easier, recovery feels smoother, and everyday activities require less effort.

Beyond the physical benefits, hydration supports mental and emotional well-being. Even mild dehydration can affect mood and focus. Choosing high-quality water like PiMag® can help you feel more lucid and better equipped to meet the demands of the hectic contemporary lifestyle.

Smart hydration—powered by PiMag® water—is a simple yet transformative habit that fuels vitality from the inside out, supporting balanced living and helping you feel good every day. The entire month of January, take advantage of 20% off replacement filters, including filters for the PiMag Waterfall® and other filtration systems.

The Natural Cycle of Renewal

Published on by Nikken

Nature follows cycles of renewal. In the spring, plants sprout, flowers bloom and you actually can smell growth in the air. In the summer, days are warmer and it’s time to harvest some of the most delicious fruits, vegetables and grains. Autumn signals the beginning of a natural withdrawal with colorful changes, and winter is nature’s time of rest to prepare for renewal once again.

If you take a look at a tree, you see the trunk, its branches and the leaves. What you don’t see are the roots, but the taller the tree, the firmer the roots. Apply this image to the human experience. Human lives follow a similar cycle of renewal. There are seasons of growth, not only physically but intellectually, culturally and in business. There are also seasons that are focused on reflection, quiet contemplation and rest.

Successful individuals appear healthy and strong, but the foundation they are built on is not visible but surely there. The roots of that invisible foundation are what allow the progression of personal development, perseverance and resilience. Regardless of which season you are in, the basics of rest, hydration, clean air and whole food nourishment are necessary components to complete a successful cycle of renewal.

Just as nature thrives in seasons, you can build your own cycles of growth, renewal and rest. Nature doesn’t rush through winter to reach spring; it patiently endures each season, drawing strength and renewal from every phase. In the same way, you can learn to respect your own seasons — both the highs that fill you with energy and the lows that call for quiet and rest. Growth isn’t about constant improvement; it’s about respecting the natural ebb and flow of life.1

To evaluate how to complete cycles of renewal in more productive ways, simply ask a few basic questions:  Are you getting enough restful sleep? Are you making sure your indoor air is clean rather than full of dust, dander and allergens? Are you eating nutrient-dense foods? Are you practicing some kind of movement every day? Movement does not have to be a specific exercise. It can be as simple as climbing stairs instead of using the elevator, parking the car a little further so you can get a walk in, taking the dog for a walk, mowing the lawn and so on. Are you making private time to nurture yourself instead of always serving others?

For the entire month of January 2026, Nikken is offering 20% off replacement filters! Air and water filters need to be renewed— just like nature and just like you!

Being Part of a Community Supports Well-Being and Business Growth

Published on by Nikken

The Oxford Dictionary defines “community” as “a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common.” The secondary definition is “a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests and goals.” If John Donne was correct and “no man is an island,” then it makes sense that being part of a community supports overall well-being and the group’s business growth.

From the time you’re born, your relationships help you learn to navigate the world. You learn how to interact with others, express yourself, conduct everyday health habits, and be a part of different communities from those around you. Positive social habits can help you build support systems and stay healthier mentally and physically.1

Being an active member of a community creates a sense of belonging, which results in a positive state of mind, important to overall well-being. As the population ages, being part of a community helps deter feelings of isolation and loneliness. Being connected to others also helps prevent a nagging sense of anxiety and stress.

Communities are about giving and taking; the more you do that, the more you share with others and the more likely you are to build meaningful relationships, which can develop quickly among like-minded people who share common interests, shared goals, or experiences. By networking with other community members, you can make new friends, help others, or even find strategic partnerships, opportunities, and clients.2 Being part of a community is essential to well-being but also the key to business growth, regardless of whether you are a business owner or an employee in a school, store, corporation or service provider.

Living with uncertainty has become the norm. This has made it more important than ever to have a strong support network in place.3 One of the main lessons learned with the pandemic is that having a community, even when it is online rather than in person, can help fight feelings of hopelessness and provide a sense of security. Community benefits go two ways: you support others as they support you. Giving engenders a sense of usefulness and receiving produces gratitude.

From now until November 30th, Nikken is offering Black Friday Month specials. Contact your local Nikken Consultant or Nikken Customer Service to find out how to access free ground shipping and up to 20% in discounts.

Overloaded? De-Stress From a Fast-Paced, Tech-Heavy Life

Published on by Nikken

In general, there are two sources of stress: one is from daily living and the other is from major life events. The Lazarus-Folkman scale gives examples of daily living stresses such as lack of time, too many things to do, financial obligations, work-related problems, restless sleep, concern with appearances and aging, and even forgetfulness and misplacing or losing items.

On the other hand, the Holmes-Rahe scale gives examples of major life events that cause stress. These include death in the family, divorce, personal injury or illness, pregnancy, marriage, loss of job due to layoffs or retirement and a major change to financial status.

The tech-reliant lifestyle that many people live is both a source of relief as well as of stress. Technology enables people to work from home—this became prevalent during the pandemic and has become a permanent status for a substantial part of the global population. Working from home was and remains a boon to those who have the dual roles of bread-earner and primary childcare or eldercare person.

Without technology, you would not be able to stay connected to friends and family who live in other parts of the world on a virtually real-time basis. Gone are the days of relying solely on snail mail to receive news from loved ones.

So why does technology cause stress? Technology itself does not cause stress, but your approach and use of it, does. When you become slaves to your phones and electronic devices, you become creatures of habit who are addicted to receiving the latest news about global politics, movie idols, local gossip, the ever-changing trends and whatever is “hot” on social media. Consciously or subconsciously, these topics can affect self-esteem, self-image and self-care as you constantly compare yourselves against what is “out there.”

Many of the daily living stresses and major life events are beyond your control; however, you can take charge of how you approach technology in your lives. In other words, you can set healthy boundaries for yourselves. Here are a few things you can do to control how you use technology in your life:

  • Set realistic and sustainable limits on device use. Conduct an audit on what you spend your time on with your devices. For example, instead of scrolling through the news after work, try getting dinner prep out of the way first.1
  • Commit to being device-free for a period of time each week. Instead, go offline and connect with friends in real life.2
  • Turn off alerts so that you’re not at the mercy of constant pinging from emails, messages, and updates on who’s doing what on socials.3
  • Set limits to your time on social media.4 Just as parents set limits on the amount of screen time their kids are allowed, you need to do so for yourselves!

To combat stress overall, center yourselves and take a break from technology. Replace scrolling on devices with more physical activities, such as taking daily walks or choosing an exercise you like and can stick to, committing to eating healthy foods and making your own food. Research from the National Library of Science in 2022 shows that people who follow a diet high in processed foods and added sugars are more likely to experience higher perceived stress levels.5

Self-care means setting boundaries not only for yourselves but for others. Say “no” when necessary and be one with nature as often as possible. Be well by sleeping well, eating well and hydrating well. You still have a couple of days to take advantage of 20% off your purchase of a PiMag Waterfall®, one easy way to stay hydrated with alkaline “living water.”

How Deep Sleep Awakens Your Best Self

Published on by Nikken

Did you know that your body goes through four stages of sleep? As you sleep, your body cycles through those four stages. Sleep cycles vary throughout the night, with the shortest at the beginning of the night, typically lasting between 70 to 100 minutes. Later on, sleep cycles can last between 90 to 120 minutes.

Each of the four stages of sleep serves a purpose. Stage 1 is the lightest stage and occurs when you first fall asleep. Stage 1 allows your body to slow down and begin the process of relaxation. It is easy to be awakened, and if so, you have to repeat stage 1 until you’re asleep. If you stay asleep, your body will move into Stage 2.

During Stage 2, your muscles relax, body temperature drops, your heart rate and breathing both slow down. Brain activity also slows down in stage 2. During the first sleep cycle, stage 2 might last 10-25 minutes and each stage 2 later on, may become longer. Sleep experts estimate that a person generally spends half of a night’s sleep in stage 2.1

Stage 3 is where you get the deepest sleep. This stage is especially important because during deep sleep, your body recovers and grows. In other words, stage 3 is when your body experiences restorative sleep and the immune system and other major bodily processes are strengthened.2 Stage 3 is also known as delta sleep or slow-wave sleep, due to the identifiable pattern of brain activity. Muscle tone, pulse and breathing rate all decrease, and although brain activity slows, there is evidence that deep sleep contributes to insightful thinking, creativity and memory.3

During the early sleep cycles, deep sleep typically lasts from 20-40 minutes. As you continue sleeping, stage 3 sleep actually shortens and more time is spent in stage 4, REM sleep. Because the eyes are moving rapidly even though they’re closed during stage 4, that’s why it’s called REM sleep.

Perhaps the most attention has been paid to stage 4 REM sleep, because it’s during this phase that brain activity increases, almost to the levels of wakefulness. In contrast to the active brain, the rest of the body experiences a temporary paralysis of the muscles (known as atonia), with the exception of the rapid eye movement and the muscles involved with the breathing process. Although you can dream throughout the night, it’s during REM stages that the most vivid ones occur, probably due to the increase in brain activity.

But why is stage 3 deep sleep considered the key to awakening your best self? Take a look at what happens during deep sleep.

•          Your body’s natural processes of repair take place and grows bone, muscle and tissue.

•          Hormonal shifts take place to support the immune system. In fact, growth hormone is released, which helps with cell regeneration.

•          The body’s energy molecule, known as ATP, is produced. This readies your body for awakening and facing the day.

•          Memory is enhanced during deep sleep. Studies have shown that people who get enough sleep perform better on tests or when undertaking a new task.3

•          Getting enough deep sleep is linked to better moods and decreasing the risk of depression.

•          There is evidence that enough deep sleep can help prevent mental fog and help retain information.4

To get enough deep sleep, make sure you create the best possible sleep environment for yourself. Nikken can help you with free ground shipping on select Kenko sleep products through October 31st this month. (Free ground shipping does not apply to the Kenko Power Sleep Mask.)

Pinched Neck Be Gone!

Published on by Nikken

Your neck holds up your head, one of the heaviest parts of the body. Approximately 10-11 pounds (4.5-5 kg) for an average adult, this weight is from the skull and the brain, and relies on the neck muscles for support.

The neck is clinically known as the cervical spine, made up of seven flexible vertebrae. Not only does it support the heavy head, but it also protects the nerves that start from the brain and fan out to the rest of the body. Since the neck plays such a critical role in the overall function of the body, it is of utmost importance to provide it with ample support to decrease the risk of aches and pains from poor positioning during sleep. Any misalignment can strain the neck muscles, resulting in stiffness and achiness once you’re awake. It can also produce more serious issues, including nerve compression and decreased blood flow to the brain.1

How you sleep plays a role in what type of pillow is more beneficial to you. If you are a side sleeper, a firm pillow helps to keep your neck aligned with your spine. If you’re a back sleeper, a medium-firm pillow is more supportive of the natural curve of your neck. If you sleep on your stomach, you will do better with a soft, thin pillow to reduce strain on the neck.2 Most sleep experts advise against sleeping on your stomach, as it is believed to cause the most neck strain.

To keep your neck aligned with your spine, the pillow most beneficial for your sleeping position will be neither tilted upwards nor downwards. In other words, the pillow will be high enough to support your neck without angling your head up or down.3

Nikken is a pioneer in sleep technology and continues to innovate. In 2022, Nikken launched the Kenko Naturest® Makura, a partner product to the Kenko Naturest® Fit. The Fit is a topper that comes in different sizes to fit snugly on virtually any mattress, to help provide luxuriously deep sleep.

Made with the same technologies as the Fit—magnetic cocooning, soothing, calming tourmaline, and temperature-regulating Rubberthane nodules—the Kenko Naturest® Makura is unlike any other pillow. Here’s why:

The Makura (Japanese for “pillow”) is made with three removable layers. This means you can customize it to your personal needs. No matter if you’re a side, back or stomach sleeper, you can tailor the Makura to the height that provides the ergonomic support you personally need to keep your neck and spine aligned.

            1. One outer foam layer contains the Rubberthane nodules of natural latex, magnets and tourmaline. This side provides you with a firm pillow and a massaging sensation.

            2. The middle layer acts like a thin traditional pillow.

            3. The other outer layer has smooth Rubberthane without the latex nodules. It holds the magnets and tourmaline. By removing the latex nodules, this side provides a softer, cushioned pillow that still supports your head.

With the Makura, you get three pillows in one. In a household with people who sleep in different positions, the Makura can even be shared! For example, a side sleeper could use the firm side while the stomach sleeper could use the middle layer, and a back sleeper could use the medium-firm side! You won’t find anything like it elsewhere, because the Makura is exclusive to Nikken.

From now through the end of October 31, receive free ground shipping on any Makura Sleep Pack and select Kenko Sleep Products, including the Kenko Naturest® Makura—once you try this pillow, you’ll never sleep on another one again!

How Much Protein, Carbs and Fiber Do You Need?

Published on by Nikken

What you eat and how much of it you need depends on your caloric requirements. The number of calories that you need each day day will depend on your age, weight, height, activity level, and health goals. Carbohydrate and protein each contribute four calories per gram, while fat contributes nine calories per gram. Soluble fiber only contributes two calories per gram and insoluble fiber contributes zero calories because it passes through without being absorbed, which is one way that fiber keeps the body regular.

The minimum calorie count recommended for adults is 1,800 calories per day for sedentary women and 2,400 calories per day for sedentary men, based on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and U.S. Department of Agriculture 2020–2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Ninth Edition.Only children and youth can eat lower calorie counts and still satisfy their nutritional needs. There is no single diet that works for everyone. There are, however, a few general ranges.

The USDA’s Dietary Guidelines for Americans provide percent ranges for each macronutrient in the Healthy U.S.-style Pattern. For adults, the organization recommends consuming 10% to 35% of calories from protein, 45% to 65% from carbohydrates, and 20% to 35% from fat.  The guidelines also suggest consuming less than 10% of total calories from saturated fat.1

Those following a healthy vegetarian eating plan should meet the same nutrient and Dietary Guidelines standards as in the Healthy U.S.-style Pattern, so macronutrient ranges are the same. The difference between the two eating styles is the foods chosen within each food group. Someone on a vegetarian diet should try to consume 55% carbohydrate, 14% protein, and 34% fat with 3.5-ounce equivalents of protein foods, including legumes, soy products, eggs, nuts, and seeds.2

Those following a Mediterranean-Style eating plan should also meet the same nutrient standards as the Healthy U.S.-style Pattern, so the macronutrient ranges are the same. The difference between the two eating patterns is that the Mediterranean-style diet containsmore fruit and seafood and less dairy than the Healthy U.S.-style Pattern. For example, the USDA recommends 15 ounce-equivalents per week of seafood for those following a 2000-calorie-per-day Mediterranean diet, but only 8 ounce-equivalents per week of seafood for those following the Healthy U.S.-Style Pattern. The Mediterranean diet can be 52% carbohydrate, 18% protein, and 32% fat.3

Carbohydrates break down into an energy source for the body, especially the brain. They also add fiber to the diet which helps smooth digestive processes. Protein is important for maintaining muscle mass, cellular renewal and supporting the immune system.

A little research goes a long way, for example, some vegetables contain protein, so even if you are a meat eater, you don’t have to limit yourself to getting protein from animal sources. Newer research indicates that eating more plant-based protein may help reduce heart disease, since nuts and legumes are considered more heart-healthy than processed meat.4

Even though each person’s individual lifestyle will dictate how much protein, fiber and carbs to eat to feel good every day, a balanced plate is generally favored over one that eliminates an entire food group. In other words, choose to eat balanced meals that are sustainable for your activity level and lifestyle and try not to be swayed by fad diets.

No matter how you choose to eat, always hydrate daily with clean water. Don’t miss the PiMag Waterfall® sale at 20% off through August 31, 2025!

The Water-Gut Connection

Published on by Nikken

Water is critical for the smooth operations of various bodily functions. These functions include temperature regulation, the transport and distribution of nutrients and the elimination of waste and toxins. Water is also one of the primary ingredients for healthy digestion. In other words, hydration and efficient digestion make perfect partners.

Water is required for digestion, acting as a lubricant that facilitates the movement of food along the digestive tract. From the moment food enters the mouth, saliva, which is primarily water, begins to break down complex carbohydrates. As the food travels through the digestive system, it needs adequate water to maintain the right consistency for smooth movement. In the stomach, water combines with stomach acids to help break down proteins and aid in the digestive process. Water helps prevent constipation and promotes regular bowel movements.1 In a nutshell, the digestive processes that require water include the following2:

• Saliva production—Saliva is primarily water and contains enzymes that begin the digestion of carbohydrates in the mouth.

• Gastric juices—Water is the main component of the gastric juices that in the stomach that help break down food.

• Enzyme function–Many digestive enzymes require a watery environment to efficiently break down food.

Proper hydration is essential for optimal nutrient absorption in the digestive system, since water moves the nutrients from the digestive tract into the bloodstream. When well hydrated, the body can efficiently absorb vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients.3

Digestive disorders occur when the body is dehydrated. This is because when the body doesn’t have enough water, it takes whatever water is available for critical functions such as maintaining blood pressure and supporting vital organs.4 When this happens, the digestive system may not receive enough water, leading to constipation and other discomforts.

To keep your gut healthy, remember to drink water throughout the day. The more active you are, the more water you will need to stay adequately hydrated. Caffeine and alcohol act as diuretics, so be mindful of fluid loss and dehydration and increase the volume of water you drink to help compensate. Since many fruits and vegetables are full of water, incorporate them into your daily regimen and obtain not only the benefits of hydration but also essential vitamins and minerals. Watermelon, cucumbers, oranges and berries are examples of produce abundant in water and vitamins.

Some simple daily habits for healthy digestion are:

• Starting your day with a glass of water. This helps kickstart your metabolism and the digestive system first thing in the morning,
• Drink water consistently throughout the day. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty, because by then you are probably already somewhat dehydrated. Keep a water bottle with you as a reminder to drink!

• Drink water before, during and after exercise. Physical activity of any sort can lead to fluid loss, and staying hydrated helps support your muscles and digestive system.

Remember, for the entire month of this July, you receive 20% off select filter replacements. That includes filters for our PiMag Waterfall® that helps you hydrate with alkaline water inspired by nature.

Different Strokes for Different Folks: Exercise and Sports Around the Globe

Published on by Nikken

Throughout history, people have exercised, consciously or unconsciously. As hunters and gatherers, our ancestors walked or ran to search for food. They didn’t need to exercise in the contemporary sense, because survival depended on constant physical activity. As civilizations developed, sports were invented.

The Greeks started the Olympics and focused mostly on wrestling. Enter the Romans who transformed activities of war into sport—throwing spears and javelins, hand-to-hand combat and sword fighting, later also known as fencing.

Navigate to the East, and the Japanese were developing sword play of their own in the form of Kendo with bamboo (shinkai) swords and wrestling in the form of sumo. Perhaps due to the prevalence of Buddhism in China and Shintoism in Japan, martial arts came to be in the forms of karate, Chinese kung fu, tai chi, wing chun and jiu-jitsu. Wing chun is a kung fu style notably founded by a Buddhist nun from the Shaolin Temple, and Manchu warriors learned to ice skate in order to reach their enemies, later transforming it to a sport!

Into the Americas, the Aztecs, Incas and Mayans played ball sports. “Pok-a-Tok” was played by Mayans not only for fun, but as a way to settle conflicts between warring factions, with losers suffering the fate of death. Apparently, Pok-a-Tok is a difficult mix of soccer and basketball! In contrast to playing for life and death, the Native American Tarahumara people were ancient marathoners who could run 200 miles at a time! They would likely best today’s extreme athletes!

North American sports largely came from European influences, and as witnessed by the addition of new events in current Olympics, exercise has truly evolved over time. For example, skateboarding originated in California by surfers who wanted to do something on land that felt like being on the waves. It debuted as an event at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.

Whether you choose the slow gracefulness of tai chi or a team sport such as soccer, rugby, volleyball or basketball, the key is to keep moving. Take a look at the special Olympics and the wheelchair athletes from around the world for inspiration—choose a physical activity and do it consistently to feel good every day.
