We Move, Therefore We Are

Image
Humour me just a little longer, will you? Now think of a happy memory. Is it a still image? Or can you visualize it happening all over again, complete with actions, perhaps even sounds? Notice how your body responds to this recollection. Is that a smile forming on your lips? Descartes was nearly there when he said, I think, therefore I am. It is true that our ability to think is indeed what brings meaning to our individual existence. However, believing that the thinking occurs only in the mind is far from the truth. It is as if the mind and the body are two separate entities going about their days, merrily doing their own thing, never having to consider the other. Whereas the mind and the body are just two sides of the same coin. They have to coexist. The mind cannot decide on its own how hot it is going to be outside until the body directly feels and experiences the intensity of the sun. And the body cannot seek shelter under a tree or in an air-conditioned room until the mind tells...

  Mental health is not always easy to understand and in turn can be frightening to most. However, not talking about it doesn’t make it any less of a problem.   As a culture, we often see not talking about sadness or mental health conditions as a way to safeguard people and their health, which doesn’t make sense – it’s like never talking about safe sex, it doesn’t help us at all.

It’s incredibly humanising – for a situation like this to impact us not only physically but mentally...

The Active Space: Notes from Team Näck

Image
After more than a year of having two products which you have loved and enjoyed, we’re proud to venture into a whole new category- Näck Active, with our power-packed Whey Protein. We sat down with our co-founders to understand the process behind this launch; let’s go back to the start with our CEO, Malin Petersson.   What Led To The Launch Of Näck? Näck is a Swedish-Indian startup launched by a group of friends who also happen to be strong health enthusiasts with extensive experience, professional and personal knowledge from the nutraceutical and fitness industry. We launched Näck with a clear common goal: to simplify the modern wellness movement, make the often overwhelming and complex world of health and nutrition simple, fun and most importantly, trustworthy. I think we all deserve products we can rely on, but in an industry filled with magic pills, false claims and made up labels, trust is a scarcity. Näck is a Swedish word that translates to “Naked”, and that is what o...
