Hey there, we're Tom Nikkola and Vanessa Romero! We live in the heart of downtown Minneapolis, MN with our furbabies, a Shih Tzu named Gizmo, aka, the cutest dog in the world, and a Tabby Cat named Kirby, aka the fattest cat in the world. We have two adult sons who have left the nest, making us empty-nesters at the young ages of 40 and 46. We will leave it up to you to guess who is older. We are husband and wife, Christ followers, business partners, city slickers, entrepreneurs, purple lovers, and health nuts. We blog about all things healthy living. […]
[vc_row full_width=”” parallax=”” parallax_image=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Thank you for giving me the opportunity to explore Young Living Essential Oils with you. Why I got started using essential oils. As a healthy living blogger, essential oils fell onto my radar in 2013. On a quest to eliminate toxins from our home, like those found in personal care and cleaning products, I kept seeing DIY recipes that called for essential oils. I was also looking for natural ways to relieve some common complaints my family was experiencing, like seasonal and pet allergies, tension headaches, and digestive discomforts. When it comes to essential oils, quality matters. Young Living, has […]

Summer is right around the corner. At least it’s supposed to be. Although yesterday, it was in the 40s here in Minneapolis and our pool is scheduled to open this weekend. So, here’s to hoping it warms up quick. At any rate, it’s about this time of year when people start thinking more about slimming and trimming up for summer. I'm not big on quick fixes, fasting or going on a restrictive diet, as it really isn’t the solution to long-term weight management or health for that matter. However, there are some seemingly simple or small changes that we can make that […]

This is one of those topics no one wants to talk about. In a committed relationship, kissing and sex is an incredibly healthy activity. Sex is good for the immune system, can help lower blood pressure, has been shown to lessen pain, improves sleep, lowers stress levels, strengthens the relationship, improves mood and, specifically in men, reduces prostate cancer risk. As good as all of that sounds, and as great as sex often feels, to many adults, the thought of sex sounds like a chore. Amateur's Guide to Libido – Part One The desire for sex is driven by emotional, mental and […]
We’re not addicted, we’re passionate. We love coffee. I like mine black. Vanessa likes hers Bulletproof™. We agree on the roast, it’s got to be dark and bold, with a little bit of a bite. If it’s just a bit smoky, that’s even better. In the busyness of everyday life, our morning cup of coffee is something we do together. It’s like having a rich conversation without saying a word. The key to enjoying that brief moment in time, is to make a consistently “great-tasting” cup of coffee. Until recently, I’d say it was more of a “good-tasting” cup of coffee. We've […]

Toxins. They are in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the medications we take and the water we drink. Detoxification. The body’s way of metabolizing and removing toxins. It's a process, the body does naturally, all on its own. However, the capacity of the body’s detox process is not endless. When toxins build up in our body, we get can get sick. For excellent health, it's important to enhance our body’s ability to detox, while at the same time minimizing our exposure to common toxins. Our toxic burden then, is a result of the toxins we are exposed to and our body’s ability […]

Do you ever get the hiccups? Have you tried everything to get rid of them only to still have hiccups? Every once in a while, I find myself with a bout of hiccups and, until recently, had a really hard time getting rid of them. While my hiccups are not nearly as obnoxious as Tom’s sneezes, they do get a little annoying for those around me. According to the Mayo website, hiccups could be set off by carbonated beverages, drinking too much alcohol, eating too much, stress or excitement, temperature changes or swallowing air. Actually, the Mayo says those can […]
Vanessa makes me a far better man than I could ever be if I were left to my own devices. We've been married since 2003. I left Life Time Fitness in February, 2015 and we've been working side-by-side ever since. Some people say they wouldn't be able to work with their spouse. I think that's sad, but I understand why they'd say that. Working together amplified any relationship issues we had. I chose to take it as an opportunity to learn how to be a better husband as well as a better business partner. I'm a “sometimes” opinionated health and fitness […]
It's hard to live a healthy life if you don't like yourself. You can never be anybody else, half as well as you can be you. If you want to tap your ultimate potential and live a life filled with passion and purpose, learn to succeed at being YOU! 5 Things You Can Do To Succeed At Being You 1. Stop saying or thinking negative things about yourself. No really just stop it. And if you do, counter it with a positive, not just one positive, but several. The reason for this, is our brain processes negative and positive information […]
“Do you realize we’ve been working out for the past two hours?” This question was fielded to me via JVB, my training partner and co-coach at The Movement Minneapolis. I checked the clock – she was correct. Our training session had taken on a rhythm of lift a little, chat a little. (Okay, a lot.) Lift some more, then take a break to refuel. I had to smile. In that moment, I truly relished the benefit of being self-employed and the boss of my own schedule. This particular session was an indulgence, and one that doesn’t get to happen often, […]
My favorite part of the day begins shortly after I wake up. Our home is cold from turning down the thermostat overnight–there’s a little bit of a chill (Vanessa would say it's freezing), whether it’s winter or summer. Barefoot, I walk to the kitchen and make a cup of coffee. The warmth of the cup, the bitterness of the dark roast, and the idea of a new day, makes for an experience I look forward to every morning. I’m not alone in my affection for coffee. About 83% of US adults drink some form of coffee throughout the day. About […]
How many times have you said, “I'll start my diet on Monday?” Come on, admit it. Everyone knows that Monday is National “Start Your Diet Day”. You make the declaration Friday, as you are heading out to happy hour with friends. You eat freely over the weekend, binging on your favorite junk foods, because Monday is when it begins. Then Monday comes. You oversleep and rush off to work without eating breakfast or bringing a healthy lunch with you. You are starving when… The coffee and donut cart rolls past your cubicle (do those really exist?) and the temptation is […]
