Can you imagine what you could do with a little more energy? Perhaps you could get a little more work done, spend some more time playing with your kids, power your way through a workout at the gym, or perhaps just do something fun. Sounds appealing, doesn’t it? Well, the sad fact is that although many of us may have the best intentions, we simply run out of gas.

A lack of energy can have many causes. The U.S. National Institutes of Health tell us that these can include anemia, depression, sleep disorders, bad nutrition habits, diabetes, or a sedentary lifestyle. Certain medications may also cause a lack of energy, including antihistamines for allergies, blood pressure medicines, sleeping pills, prednisone, and diuretics.

Low energy can affect you in some important ways that you may not have considered. It can rob you of focus, and that can often lead to mental lapses and bad decision-making. Your work may suffer, too, as low energy steals the momentum you need to meet deadlines, arrive on time for meetings, and reach project milestones. The most successful people in business are those who can recognize an opportunity and have the ability to quickly seize it. With insufficient energy, the parade could pass you by, and you might not even know it!

Here are some great lifestyle tips that can help you to fill up your energy tank and improve your productivity:

1. Get more exercise. If you’re feeling tired, you might be surprised to learn that a walk may be better than a nap for boosting your energy levels. Any kind of physical activity will help to burn fat and increase your metabolism, and exercise will also improve your mood, helping you to feel more energized. In an important recent University of Georgia study, researchers found that sedentary people can increase their energy levels by 20 percent and reduce fatigue by an amazing 65 percent just by doing regular low-impact exercise. In another study, the same researchers found that the energy benefit from exercise was even greater than the improvement from using prescription stimulant drugs!
2. Take control of your health issues. Be sure to see your doctor if you have high blood pressure, thyroid problems, diabetes, or other energy-depleting medical conditions.
3. Sleep under comfortable conditions. Good quality sleep is essential for maintaining your energy reserves. Make sure that your bedroom is quiet, dark, and at a cool temperature that will promote healthful, deep sleep. Also, it may be time to replace that creaky mattress and lumpy pillow. Your energy levels will thank you!
4. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

If you’re like most people, you are actively seeking more happiness in your life. But you may be looking in the wrong places, and that may not be your fault. Turn on your TV, read a magazine, or log on to the Internet, and you’re assaulted by a never-ending bombardment of advertising pitches. They’ll try to convince you that happiness can be yours for the price of a new car, an expensive watch, or a trendy cell phone, but the sad truth is that the pleasure of a new acquisition fades quickly and will do nothing to increase your happiness quotient.

Can wealth make you happier? You’ve often heard that money can’t buy happiness, but few of us actually believe it. And yet, research has shown that once your basic needs are met, additional income does little to raise your sense of satisfaction with life. Additional income can raise your future happiness index, however, by helping you to secure your retirement goals or your children’s education.

Some people believe that youth is the key to happiness, but the fact is that older people are more consistently satisfied with their lives than the young, and they’re less prone to dark moods, too. Perhaps you’re thinking that a move to warmer, sunnier weather might make you happier? Well, think again! Tropical islands and the romantic French Riviera may be happy places to visit, but a recent study at England’s University of Leicester has shown that the world’s happiest people are the Danes, even though the climate can be unrelentingly cloudy, cold, and damp.

The good news is that you don’t have to move to Copenhagen to be happy. You can increase your happiness quotient over the long term by adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and making time for friends and family.

But what if you’re feeling blue right now? Here are some strategies that can help you to lift your spirits immediately (excerpted from Gretchen Rubin’s enlightening blog, The Happiness Project). Try to check off as many of the following items as possible, and you’ll really see a difference in your mood!

1. Boost your energy. Stand up and pace while you talk on the phone or, better still, take a brisk ten-minute walk outdoors. Research shows that the activity and sunlight are good for your focus, your mood, and the retention of information.
2. Reach out to friends. Having warm, close bonds with other people is one of the keys to happiness, so take the time to stay in touch.
3. Rid yourself of a nagging task. Crossing an irksome chore off your to-do list will give you a big rush of energy and cheer, and you’ll be surprised that you procrastinated for so long.
4. Create a calmer environment. Clear some physical and mental space around your desk by sorting papers, pitching junk, or even just making your piles neater. A large stack of little tasks can feel overwhelming, but often just a few minutes of work can make a sizeable dent.
5. Lay the groundwork for some future fun. Order a novel you’ve been wanting to read, or plan a weekend activity that brings you pleasure. Try to involve friends or family, as well; people enjoy almost all activities more when they’re with other people than when they’re alone.
6. Do a good deed. Introduce two people who could help each other, or shoot someone an email with some useful information or gratifying praise. If you do good, you’ll feel good—this really works.
7. Act happy. Put a smile on your face right now, even if you’re faking it. Research shows that even an artificially induced smile has a positive influence on your emotions. And if you’re smiling, other people will perceive you as being friendlier and more approachable.
8. Listen to your favorite music. Studies show that listening to music is one of the most effective ways to boost your energy and mood (second only to exercise). In fact, in one study, 92% of people felt happier when they listened to music they liked. For an added boost, dance around the room, too.
9. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

New -GoChi Goji Juice Summary

Fear and anxiety are an unavoidable part of life. You may feel anxious before a dental appointment, or when you’re walking alone down a dark street. This kind of anxiety is useful - it can make you more alert or careful. It usually ends soon after you are out of the situation that caused it. But for millions of people around the world, the anxiety does not go away, and it can even get worse over time, with symptoms such as chest pains or nightmares. Some may even be afraid to leave home. These people have anxiety disorders.

Here’s how to recognize the differences between normal anxiety and anxiety disorders, courtesy of the Anxiety Disorders Association of America:

Normal Anxiety	Anxiety Disorder
Occasional worry about circumstantial events that may leave you upset, such as financial worries, family problems, or traffic jams	Constant, chronic, and unsubstantiated worry that causes significant distress, disturbs your social life, and interferes with work
Embarrassment or self-consciousness in the face of uncomfortable social situations	Avoidance of common social situations for fear of being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated
Random case of “nerves” or jitters, dizziness, and/or sweating over an important event like an exam, job interview, or oral presentation	Repeated, random panic attacks or persistent worry/anticipation of another panic attack and feelings of terror or impending doom
Realistic fear of a threatening object, place, or situation	Irrational fear or avoidance of an object, place, or situation that poses little or no threat of danger
Wanting to be sure that you are healthy and living in a safe, hazard-free environment	Performing uncontrollable, repetitive actions, such as washing your hands repeatedly or checking things over and over
Anxiety, sadness, or difficulty sleeping immediately following a traumatic event	Ongoing and recurring nightmares, flashbacks, or emotional numbing relating to a traumatic event in your life that occurred several months or years ago

If you can relate to any of the anxiety disorder symptoms, you may want to talk to someone who is professionally qualified to help. For normal anxiety, the following strategies will also help you to stay calm:

• Exercise. Physical activity helps your body and mind. It doesn’t matter whether you jog, work out, play tennis, or go for a walk. Just get off the couch and get moving!
• Eat a balanced diet. Don’t skip meals, and try to eat from all of the food groups.
• Limit alcohol and stimulant use. Alcohol can aggravate anxiety and can also cause panic attacks, and too much caffeine can do the same as well.
• Get involved. Being active in your church or community creates a support network and gives you a break from your everyday stress.
• Do your best instead of trying to be perfect. We all know perfection isn’t possible, so be proud of however close you get.
• Take a timeout. When you’re feeling overwhelmed, just take a deep breath and count to 10. Stepping back from the problem lets you clear your head. Practicing meditation, listening to soothing music, or getting a relaxing massage are great ways to calm down.
• Put things in perspective. Think about your situation. Ask yourself whether it’s really as bad as you think it is or if you might be blowing it out of proportion.
• Talk to someone. Don’t let things bottle up to the verge of explosion. Reach out to trusted friends or family if you’re feeling low.
• Find out what triggers your anxiety. Take notes or write in a journal when you’re feeling anxious or stressed, and then look for patterns.
• Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

Winning athletes will tell you that nothing beats the exhilaration of competition, and that’s just as true for weekend golfers as it is for elite Olympians. Even a workout in the gym is an athletic contest: after all, you can only make gains by bettering your own personal best.

We’re all looking for a competitive edge, and that’s why successful athletes train as hard as they do. And yet, you might be surprised to learn that there are many things that may be preventing you from reaching peak athletic performance. These include:

Poor nutrition – There’s a large body of evidence showing a relationship between diet and athletic performance, yet many athletes make poor food choices based on misinformation. For example, many people feel athletes need a high-protein diet to support muscle growth despite the fact that researchers have repeatedly proved this false. The body tends to convert excess protein into body fat, and that’s the last thing an athlete wants. Only strength training and exercise will promote changes in muscle, and a well-balanced diet will serve the needs of most active people.

Insufficient hydration – Water is the most important, yet over-looked, nutrient by athletes. Water and fluids are essential to maintaining good hydration and body temperature. Sweat losses to keep the body cool can exceed several liters in a 1-hour period.

Inadequate sleep – Adequate sleep is critical for athletic recovery, as the body’s maintenance and repair functions occur mainly at night. An ongoing Stanford University study has shown that a little more high-quality sleep can result in dramatic improvements in athletic performance, mood, and alertness.

Low energy and poor stamina – Everyone runs out of energy sooner or later, but the best athletes are able to fight through fatigue to reach that “second wind.”

Impaired focus and concentration – Athletic competition is both mentally and physically challenging. Great athletes learn to tune out distractions by sharpening their focus and concentration.

Free-radical damage – Working muscles generate large quantities of harmful free radicals that, if left unchecked, can cause premature aging of the body’s healthy cells. This is why it is essential for athletes to maintain high blood levels of the body’s own protective antioxidants superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase.

Here are some tips that can help you to reach peak performance:

• Follow a balanced athletic conditioning program to build strength, cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, core development, and resistance to injury.
• Eat a sensible and balanced diet.
• Drink plenty of water.
• Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

GoChi – Human clinical studies participants reported experiencing improved athletic performance and increased antioxidant protection

In a recent human clinical trial featured in the peer-reviewed Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported significantly enhanced athletic performance in as little as 14 days! The study participants also reported experiencing improvements in several aspects of health that are considered to be essential for athletic success. These include:

• Increased energy
• Less fatigue
• Sharper mental acuity
• Increased focus and concentration
• Better quality of sleep

In yet another randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled study, blood tests on participants drinking GoChi showed highly significant increases in blood levels of the important antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. This was accompanied by a corresponding reduction in serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), a prime indicator of free-radical damage and a known health risk factor.

These studies illustrate FreeLife’s ongoing commitment to lead the nutrition industry in clinical research, product efficacy, and evidence-based product formulation.

Drink GoChi, and you’ll always be a winner!

New -GoChi Goji Juice Summary

In three recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, human clinical trials, GoChi™ proved extremely effective for human health in 19 key areas. In the initial groundbreaking study, participants drinking just 4 ounces daily saw positive results in multiple categories of health and well-being in as little as 14 days! Two subsequent studies showed that drinking 4 ounces of GoChi on a daily basis significantly improved the body’s immune system and antioxidant capacity within just 30 days! The 19 benefits identified in FreeLife’s three GoChi studies are no coincidence. They are all interrelated, and have been collectively termed The GoChi Effect™.

In addition to the beneficial study results, GoChi features special qualifications, standards, and certifications that make it suitable for vegans and vegetarians, keep it free from detectable pesticides, and ensure that it is gluten-free. Additionally, GoChi is not genetically modified or irradiated, contains no added sugar, artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners. It has a natural flavor that tastes great! We’ve enhanced our original juice blend, which now features a small amount of pomegranate to round out the color and taste!

GoChi’s benefits start working the moment the alarm sounds each morning. The study showed that people in the GoChi group reported awakening easier and feeling more refreshed. The placebo group, on the other hand, reported no significant improvement in awakening.

Awaking easier helps jump-start the day and sets the tone for higher energy levels. In the study, the placebo group experienced a slight decrease in energy levels, while the GoChi group experienced an energy boost throughout the day. This finding is significant indeed, as GoChi contains no caffeine or added stimulants.

In the study, the placebo group noticed a slight increase in their fatigue level, as compared to how they felt at the start of the study. However, the GoChi group showed a significant improvement in the level of fatigue they experienced. Less fatigue means more stamina and endurance, and when you add that to the increased energy people found in the GoChi group of the study, it’s an unbeatable combination!

Why Consider Trying GoChi Juice -Because of These 7 Reasons

We are constantly hearing from people getting great results with GoChi Juice and Himalayan Goji Juice. Here are several of those stories.

“A little over two years ago, I was inundated with personal and health crises. My mother passed away, I moved three times, and I experienced an extreme reaction to sprayed pesticides, leaving me bed-ridden for nearly a year. I had been an Olympic trained athlete all my life, but my body hadn’t bounced back fully from the stress I endured. Recently, a good friend introduced me to Himalayan Goji Juice. Soon after, I felt well-rested and my energy improved. I keep feeling better each day! I have found my life’s purpose, helping others regain the quality of life they want.”

~Carol DeGoff California

“I am an over-50, fairly healthy lady. I started drinking Himalayan Goji Juice in March 2007. I’ve noticed that I have more energy, especially in the evenings. I used to doze off while watching the 6:00 p.m. news, but now I am wide awake and energized until 11:00 p.m. Himalayan Goji Juice is a great product and I will drink it well into my ‘old age’ - I will drink it forever!”

~Rena Bassit, Alberta, Canada Accountant

“At work, I am constantly walking back and forth to the warehouse. A supervisor told me about Himalayan Goji Juice and gave me a bottle to try. Within a week, I noticed my energy level increasing and now after drinking Himalayan Goji Juice for a month, I feel great! I am amazed and tell everyone about Himalayan Goji Juice”

~Ruth Gray, Ohio

“I received a call from an old friend and she told me about Himalayan Goji Juice. I was familiar with goji berries but not the juice. Within a week, I had more energy, and after two weeks, I felt like a new person. Himalayan Goji Juice has made eating healthier easy - I crave veggies!”

Increased Mental Sharpness Reported in Clinical Study

Do you think you have a problem making decisions? Well, you may not know it, but you actually make tens of thousands of decisions daily, and each one, even the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other, relies upon the awesome computing power of the human brain. Like all supercomputers, the brain is powered by electrical energy. Instead of batteries and wires, however, your mind is equipped with complex circuits of neurons (brain cells), neurochemicals (electrical conductors), and nerves (pathways). When they’re working together in harmony, you feel mentally sharp. Unfortunately, many factors can decrease the optimum functioning of the brain’s complex circuitry. These include:

High homocysteine levels – An amino acid found in the blood of people with cardiovascular disease, homocysteine kills brain and nerve cells.

Hypertension – Blood vessels are damaged in the brain, reducing its supply of nutrients and oxygen and disrupting nerve circuits that control decision-making, memory, and verbal skills.

Diabetes – Too much insulin encourages inflammation and oxidative stress. Both contribute to cognitive loss.

Free-radical damage – This damage contributes to the premature aging and death of brain cells. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is widely regarded as the body’s most toxic free radical, and it is the one that is most often implicated in loss of brain and nervous system function.
What can you do to protect your cherished memories and your brain’s computing power? Here are some tips to sharpen your mental abilities:

1. Exercise your mind. Keeping your brain active is important for retaining full mind power. Reading books, listening to the radio, or doing puzzles are great calisthenics for the brain.
2. Be socially engaged. Having lots of friends and acquaintances and participating in many social activities is associated with reduced cognitive decline and decreased risk of dementia in older adults. In the NIA-funded Chicago Health and Aging Project, a high level of social engagement was associated with a significant reduction in cognitive decline.
3. Get your health issues under control, especially if you have diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure. Discuss a wellness plan with your doctor, and your brain will thank you.
4. Be physically active. Aerobic exercise, even walking, supplies brain cells with blood, oxygen, and nutrients, and clears toxins. One 8-year study on 6000 women 65 years and older found that those who were more physically active experienced far less cognitive decline.
5. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

---

In a recent human clinical trial reported in the peer-reviewed Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported experiencing significant improvement in mental sharpness in as little as 14 days. In yet another controlled human study, GoChi was found to significantly reduce free-radical damage by malondialdehyde (MDA) in just 30 days!

Are you getting enough quality sleep? Many experts recommend 7 to 9 hours daily, and even more for growing kids. And yet, more than 60 million people in the United States experience sleep-related complaints.

“People who sleep well, in general, are happier and healthier,” said National Sleep Foundation CEO Richard Gelula in a 2005 interview. “But when sleep is poor or inadequate, people feel tired or fatigued, their social and intimate relationships suffer, work productivity is negatively affected, and they make our roads more dangerous by driving while sleepy and less alert.”Poor sleep can also have serious long-term health consequences. An important recent U.S. Government study has established a link between inadequate sleep and the development of chronic diseases and conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and depression.

How can you help yourself to better sleep quality? Experts recommend the following:

1. Avoid large meals, caffeine, or alcohol within 2 hours of bedtime.
2. Get regular exercise to reduce stress hormones, but not within 3 hours of bedtime.
3. Sleep at a regular time every night and try to avoid late-afternoon naps.
4. Stop working at any task at least 1 hour before retiring to calm mental activity.
5. Minimize light and noise in the bedroom to facilitate the body’s natural release of the sleep hormone melatonin.
6. Drink 2-4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

GoChi – Clinical Study Participants Report Better Quality of Sleep

For countless generations, the goji berry has been helping the people of Asia find healthful, restful sleep. No goji product is more potent than FreeLife’s GoChi, and now its benefits for sleep have been clinically demonstrated. In a recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trial, participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported significant improvement in sleep quality in as little as 14 days! This groundbreaking clinical study has been published in the highly regarded Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), and it can also be viewed on the U.S. Government’s encyclopedic PubMed website at www.pubmed.gov. The acceptance of our study by the independent experts of a peer-reviewed publication such as JACM represents a first for a functional juice beverage in the Direct Sales industry, and it demonstrates FreeLife’s ongoing commitment to supporting its claims with solid scientific research.

Have you ever wondered about why so many immigrants through the years have risked so much to come to America. It’s because of the great opportunity it represents to create wealth and build a better life. That’s why we have such an illegal immigration. Legal immigration through the proper channels is what has made America great. Unchecked illegal immigration has the potential to undue so much of the good created by all the legal immigration This story is not about the debate over illegal immigration. This is about the story of one family who immigrated from Eastern Europe past the Statue of Liberty in New York to make a better life for their family. They certainly did just that.

However, because of this story Americans are now enjoying the incredible health and otherwise benefits of Himalayan Goji - GoChi Juice.

This is the story of Ray Faltinsky’s Family.

On Liberty Island, in New York Harbor, stands one of the largest statues in the world. The statue represents a proud woman dressed in a loose robe. Her right arm holds a great torch, raised high in the air. The left arm grasps a tablet bearing the date of the Declaration of Independence. A crown with huge spikes, like sun rays, rests on her head. At her feet is a broken shackle, symbolizing the overthrow of tyranny.The torch she holds rises 305 feet above the base of the pedestal. At night, it gleams with a powerful light as a symbol of liberty lighting the entire world. In 1903, a poem was inscribed on a tablet at the base of the pedestal. Lady Liberty speaks these words to the world:

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

And so they came. The homeless, the tempest-tost. The freedom lovers, the dreamers. They left everything they had, said goodbye to families and cultures and began their flight to freedom.

In December 1955, on a refurbished, creaky old American Army boat, the General Langfitt, 400 people set sail from Bremerhaven, Germany. Their destination: Harbor of New York City. During World War II, this boat was used to carry American soldiers to Europe. Now it was used to carry the poorest immigrants from Europe to America. On this trip were Germans, Poles, Romanians, Hungarians, Czechs, and other immigrants from Europe looking for freedom in America. Many on the boat had waited for more than five years for this opportunity to leave their homeland. None of them spoke English or had more than $100 with them.

The conditions were primitive. Husbands and wives slept in different quarters. No one was allowed to bring any personal belongings other than clothing with them on the boat.

The boat was painfully slow. For more than two weeks it was rocked by stormy waters. Nearly every immigrant was seasick to the bone. At one point, the General Langfitt had to stop in the middle of the Atlantic for nearly three days because the waters were so treacherous. Many thought this was the last trip of their lives. But while the immigrants were filled with weakness, fear, and uncertainty, they did not complain because they knew this was but a small price to pay for what lay ahead in America.

That boat was of particular interest to me. Below is a photograph of a family on that boat. The man sitting at the table is my father, Nikolaus. The woman is my mother, Martha. The little boy is my older brother, Ron, and the little girl is my older sister Gabrielle. The year was 1955.

Ten years ago, in 1998, on the occasion of my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary, I told this story at our annual Convention and in our previous monthly publication called the FreeLife Times. This summer, it is my privilege, on the occasion of my mom’s 80th birthday and my parents’ 60th wedding anniversary, to once again say thank you to my mother and father. Thank you for having the dream and vision of coming to America. Thank you for the sacrifice and courage to leave your culture and your country behind, because you felt we had a better opportunity in America. Thank you for years of sacrifice and hard work that has enabled all your children to grow up and prosper in this great country.

I learned many lessons from my parents, like the value of hard work and being honest. But the most important lesson I learned from them was how important it is to practice the Golden Rule: treating others the way you would like to be treated. This single rule alone has had a more positive impact on the record growth of FreeLife all around the world than any other principle we practice. It is the cornerstone of our business, and it will be the primary reason we will continue to grow and prosper as we become a bigger force for good around the world than any other Direct Sales company in history.

Thank you, Mom and Dad, for your flight to freedom and the life lessons that have made a difference in so many lives around the world.

Love,
Ray
