    ABOUT NAUOX

    Through the trials and tribulations of new love, sexual explorations and the desire for an elevated sexual wellness brand that spanned across all genders & sexual identities, nauox was born.  They say love has no limits. Nobody knows this better than two of our Founders, Chloe Lamb and Shayan Sadrolashrafi, who found love whilst living on opposite sides of the world, ultimately changing the course of their lives forever.   They also say love transcends time. Our third Founder, Andrew Glass, has been with his partner David for over 14 years and is a proud member of the LGBTQ community.  We’ve tried just about everything on the market, and none of them hit the mark. From drying too fast to tasting unpleasant, nothing felt right.  To elevate the magic of intimacy, we decided to create our own. Our hydrating formula is aloe & water based, glides beautifully and infused with the best ingredients. Unlike other water based lubricants, nauox is incredibly long lasting and offers a natural feel.

    The Many Physical, Physiological and Spiritual Benefits from Yoga

    Scientific evidence shows that yoga supports stress management, mental health, mindfulness, healthy eating, weight loss and quality sleep. This is according to the National Institutes of Health. On this edition of the Beth Linder-Moss Podcast, Beth specifically describes all those benefits and how to get started with Yoga.

    The Beth Linder-Moss Podcast can be heard on Apple, Spotify, LibSyn, SoundCloud, Deezer, Audacy, Metaphor,  TuneIn, and iHeartRadio.

    To listen to the podcast from Beth’s website, click here: The Benefits of Yoga.

    More Than Exercise

    Yoga is not just a form of exercise but a holistic approach to wellness that works on the mind, body, and spirit. From reducing stress and anxiety to building strength and flexibility, yoga offers numerous benefits for people of all ages and fitness levels.

    Mind Benefits of Yoga

    According to Beth, yoga helps to calm the mind and reduce stress and anxiety. The practice of breathing exercises and meditation during yoga helps to quiet the mind, relax the body, and reduce cortisol levels. Cortisol is associated with higher stress levels. Studies have shown that regular yoga practice can also alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, and even PTSD.

    Yoga can also help to improve focus, memory, and concentration. “Yoga helps to improve cognitive function, which leads to better decision-making, improved memory and concentration,” says Beth Linder-Moss.

    Body Benefits of Yoga

    The physical benefits of yoga are well known. Yoga helps to increase strength, flexibility, and balance. Practicing yoga regularly can help to tone muscles and improve overall body composition. Yoga also helps to reduce inflammation and improve digestion.

    According to Beth, yoga is one of the best ways to stay fit and healthy, especially as we age. “Yoga is a low-impact exercise that can be practiced by people of all ages and fitness levels. The practice helps to maintain mobility and flexibility in the body, which is essential as we grow older.”

    Spiritual Benefits of Yoga

    Yoga is not just a physical practice but a spiritual one too. It helps to connect the mind, body, and spirit. Yoga philosophy talks about the interconnectedness of all things and encourages participants to live a life of compassion and kindness.

    Beth believes practicing yoga can help to connect with our inner selves and find inner peace. “Yoga helps to inculcate a deep sense of awareness, concentration, and mindfulness. It helps to cultivate a sense of gratitude, compassion, and contentment,” she says.

    Finally Beth says, “yoga is a practice that nourishes and sustains us, helping us to live better, healthier, and more fulfilling lives.”

    Easy Ways for Tech-Life Balance

    Screen-time continues to be a hot topic around the globe. Despite new moderation legislation coming out, the big tech companies being increasingly scrutinized, and a growing awareness of the dark side of a tech overdose, the usage of smartphones, social media and other digital tech continues to rise.

    While these movements are taking place at a societal level, there is so much that you as an individual can do to make sure that you have a healthy relationship with tech – and there is so much to gain! Below, I share 5 easy ways.

    1. Set Digital Boundaries. It’s important to set limits on how much time you spend online, especially on social media which is designed to keep us on their platforms. You can do this by scheduling specific times for checking emails, browsing social media, or using other digital devices, and using your devices to set app limits (and not override them)!

    2. Practice Mindful Use of Technology. Before using your phone or computer, take a moment to ask yourself why you’re using it. Is it to communicate with someone or for work? Or are you mindlessly scrolling through social media? Doing this can help you use it more intentionally and reduce the time you spend on unproductive or unhealthy activities. And once you have made the decision to use it, make sure that is what you do use it for and not get sidetracked into something else!

    3. Take Breaks. Try to take breaks from digital devices throughout the day. This can help you reduce eye strain, improve your posture, and even prevent burnout. You can take a short walk, a couple of deep breaths, or do something else that you enjoy which doesn’t require screen time. Even if your work requires you to be in front of a computer most of the day, find a few minutes every hour to stretch and give your eyes a break.

    4. Use Technology to Improve your Well-Being. Having tech-life balance means realizing that technology can also work for you. There are many digital tools and apps that can help you improve your mental and physical health. For example, you can use mindfulness apps, fitness trackers, or meditation apps to help you manage stress and improve your overall well-being.

    5. Build Human Connections. While technology can help us connect with others, it’s important to also build connections in the analog world, which research shows is essential for our well-being. This can include spending time with friends and family, joining social clubs, or participating in community events. By all means, you can use the devices to find people to connect to in the outside world as well.

    Whether you try one, a few, or all five of these healthy habits, make sure to focus on what you are getting, not what you are giving up. Research shows over and over again that small steps to improve our digital well-being leads to increased overall well-being, focus, and even happiness.

    A healthy blend of beet root, tart cherries, cranberries, pomegranate, hibiscus, and magnesium, 120/Life is the first functional beverage designed to help lower blood pressure naturally.

    There’s a naturally occurring mineral that is so important to our good health and is so often overlooked: magnesium. Magnesium serves numerous vital functions in our bodies. It’s also one of the key minerals found in juice at 120/Life. 120/Life, the first functional drink made from six ingredients and proven to help people lower blood pressure. Co-Founded by  Susan Schachter registered nutritionist (MSRDN), she is dedicated to helping people achieve wellness naturally. The drink she co-created is six ingredients that you may can at your grocery store and is intended to be a support to healthy lifestyle choices and not a supplement. 120/Life is also backed by Cardiologist, Dr. Lowell Steen.  
     
    A recent study that found heart attacks in people ages 25 to 44 increased by 30%, this is the highest its ever been for this age group. There are many factors that may contribute to this, and that is why I am proposing a conversation around blood pressure and heart health for those who may have never experienced problems in the past, and/or might also be fit, and athletic. With the number of professional athletes experiencing heart issues, there is no better time than now to have this discussion and make it accessible for all. 

     
    Susan Schachter, MSRDN is co-founder of 120/Life, in-house nutrition expert, and author of the Circulatory blog. Susan is a Registered Dietitian, Nutritionist, and Adjunct Professor of Nutrition, with over 20 years in the field. Susan stresses the value of synthesizing traditional approaches to health with alternative wisdom and thinking.
    8 ounces of Pow! from 6 natural ingredients. 120/Life blended them together into a super beverage proven to lower blood pressure—now with even more efficient delivery of nitrates and a better taste. The drink is delicious, not too tart and not too sweet, this is a great addition to a healthy lifestyle.
