Absolutely love this, I was there in person during this talk. It inspired me to get in touch with my body and work out even without equipment and a GYM. Nikita is such an inspirational speaker, she is my hero, you go girl.
Thank you so much, Sushil! I’m so happy to hear you began to look for solutions and made it happen!!! Thank you for being there on my big day and for your support
Well done, Nikita. Fitness and health is far more than muscles. It is about self-confidence, self-respect and self-belief. Getting stronger as a young man enabled me to overcome poor health, run full marathons, become a paratrooper, compete in kickboxing and deal with bullying. These physical successes convinced me that I could become a better student. I went from a C average high school student to a university graduate. Physical health is such an important part of mental health. I have seen loved ones die slow suicidal deaths as well as attend five funerals due to suicide. Believe in yourself. Trust yourself.
Hi Doug, thank you so much, I appreciate your comment! Absolutely, health and fitness builds character before it builds a better physique. I'm so happy to hear the outstanding benefits it opened you up to! May you also keep inspiring others to make their health a priority! Cheers :)
Nikita - brilliant, a simple prescription all of us can follow to live more vibrant and fulfilling lives - Lift, Laugh, Love! I can relate to the days when I couldn't do even one pullup. I was only one of two boys in my class. Ugh! Fast forward to the days of doing sets of 12-15 reps. It truly can be life-changing. Men, women, boys, and girls, young and old, all can benefit from your experience and simple, yet profound prescription As a doctor, I wish I had come up with it. Come to think of it, I will start prescribing it by directing others to watch your Talk.
Hiya Skip! Thank you for your comment, good sir! How inspiring! As someone who has been there and come out on the other side, I'm so happy that you are sharing your gift to upLIFT others as well. I am honoured that you'll be sharing my video with those whom you see it would benefit! Together and as a collective, we can change the world!
Just went to listen to your talk again. I've begun to realize that I feel so much better about myself when I work on all aspects of me. The physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. How I feel about my body affects all other parts of me. Keep up the talk, Nikita.
Very wise word, Nikita. They are motivating and inspiring. Loved the stories! There was something for everyone, even my 60+ year old self. I'm starting simple and building up like you did. Thank You.
Nakita...that was powerful. You definitely gave me something to think about when it comes to taking care of my body. Thank you for sharing your message.
Thank you so much, Dr. Madeline Ann Lewis! Being able to share my message and have it impact others like yourself brings me all the joy in the world! Which part resonated the most for you? :)
Thank you Nikita! Love your personal story .... about the importance of listening to our body. And, appreciate your tips. Tips that any of us can put into practice any time, at any age. And congratulations on your incredible win, 1st place in body building, spurred on by Arnie. Arnie would be proud.
Hello Dorothea! Thank you so much for your comment! I think Arne would be just as touched as I am to know that he had a positive impact on someone else's life by sharing his message :) Hopefully one day I'll be able to tell him how he changed my life in person!
I never listen to my body either but I never thought of it that way I want to start paying more attention to my body this was very inspiring and uplifting thanks. 🙏💪
Hi Marlow! Thank you for this comment! I'm soooo happy you had this epiphany! Your body is very intelligent. I am excited for you to start listening to it and giving it what it needs. Let me know if you need any direction or advice :)
Nikita makes so many important points in this dynamic, important talk. I can totally relate to being disconnected from your body. Thank you for energizing us to listen to our bodies.
Elaine! Thank you for this comment. I'm so happy you saw value and connected with it! Yes, it's not a great place to be and I hope others see this video as a beacon of hope to not give up on themselves
Thank you, Luis! I think many of us have been there. I really wanted to show that even people who seem strong have suffered low points! We are all in this together
Outstanding eye opening story Nikita! You truly shine & embody your wisdom. YOUR personal experience & expertise make you perfectly aligned to guide others! So proud to know you.
Thank you so much, Colleen, for taking the time to write this comment! I appreciate your words. We can only lead by example in hopes to inspire others :)
