My Nikken Story

Over the past year the changes that swept the world has given me a lot to think about. I sailed through 2020 with a very new way of thinking of how to go forward. Today is all there is so I am grateful for making it count. A book was recommended to me that pointed out that storytelling can help in making a mark in one’s life. That is telling your story with emotional truth. 

Here is my story of a journey through my “Business Years”.  Twenty years ago I was introduce to a Japanese Total Wellness Company that has since gone Global. At that time I had retired from a nursing career, lost my husband and gone through a series of radiation for breast cancer. The stress during those years left a mark. I had to re-evaluate who “me” was and make decision on how to go on alone.  

This Total Wellness Company was Nikken. It helped open a door that set me on course of learning many new ways of thinking. All my life was with the “get an education, get a job, save for your retirement and everything would be great” – corporate world. I knew nothing about the entrepreneurship of Network Marketing.

I, also,  had not learned the importance of nature's wonders. Nikken has put what nature gives us- energy from the sun, earth, water, air and soil into their products. They also created a philosophy of “Humans Being More, through the Five Pillars of Wellness, Body, Mind, Family, Society and Finances” and to “Live a Balanced Life Style”.   It was a magical way of looking at my new life.

I listened to the initial presentation in awe and experienced the products. I liked what I saw and became a consultant. As I look back over me younger years I had learned a 4-H  philosophy "You learn to do by doing". I recognized now that all my decision and choices I made were made same way, not worrying about the out come, just do it and adjust along the way.

So, here I was in a very new situation of a Network Marketing Business. I knew nothing about selling or how to interest others in this wellness company, their products and business strategies.  Over these 20 years I attended many events and met other consultants who are very helpful. I attended the Nikken University Humans Being More Workshops that shifted my belief in myself. I did, however, interest others who became customers. 

I have used all the products since 2001, which gave me knowledge of their benefits and  gained more confidence in talking to others about this wellness company.  I am the product of my products! 

This brings  me today, at the age of 82, I am more enthused about Nikken than ever. My involvement is now online due to the pandemic that has settled around us. I keep learning the technology of the internet enabling me to be a member of this Global Wellness Community. I have overcome any barriers, fears, limiting beliefs, and have taken massive action to promote Wellness.
