Wellness Girlies: Meet Your New Favorite Line For Better Sleep, Reduced Stress, Increased Focus, & More

With a schedule that never seems to slow down, it’s easy to put self care on the back burner. But small acts of self care can have a major impact on your overall well being, especially when you opt for products that were developed to boost your brain and mood. Nu Skin’s latest MYND360 line was created to do just that, offering a mix of supplements and topicals that feature thoroughly researched ingredients and clinically studied formulas aimed at supporting everything from a better night’s sleep to feeling more focused and less stressed throughout the day.

Comprising six products, the Nu Skin lineup lets you pick and choose according to your wellness goals and product preferences. From daily supplements that promise results in 12 weeks to a body cream that was formulated to promote relaxation right away, the products can be used individually or paired together. Before we take a closer look at the clinically tested ingredients powering each product, it’s important to note that you should always speak with your doctor before incorporating a supplement into your routine. While supplements are generally perceived as a good thing, that’s not always the case if, say for example, you’re taking too much of a supplement or mixing a prescription medication something that’s incompatible.

Nu Skin MYND360 Feel Calm

For anyone looking to potentially reduce stress without having to significantly alter their routine, there’s the Feel Calm supplement. Just three ingredients are featured in the supplement, including L-theanine, an amino acid that has been shown to ease stress-related symptoms like anxiety and poor sleep after four weeks. Studies have also shown that L-theanine can help to improve cognitive function at a dosage of 200 milligrams, which is the amount of L-theanine found in the Feel Calm supplement. To further support stress reduction, the supplement contains two herbs: lemon balm extract and magnolia bark extract. Lemon balm has been considered a calming herb since the Middle Ages, and it has been shown to increase overall mood and decrease anxiety. Similarly, magnolia bark has been used to reduce anxiety for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine.

As with all of the supplements from the MYND360 line, you’ll want to take two of the capsules each day with a liquid. While some of the supplements require continued use before you’ll notice any potential benefits, Nu Skin’s clinical research showed that calming benefits may be seen right after the first dose (with more benefits seen after a month of daily use).

Nu Skin MYND360 Mind Full

If it’s mental fatigue that you’re up against, Nu Skin created this Mind Full blend to support memory and brain function, while also helping to protect against the mental fatigue associated with eye strain. This formula is powered by the antioxidant astaxanthin, which has been researched for its ability to improve cognitive function across response time and memory (both episodic and short-term). Nu Skin combined the ingredient with grape extract and vitamin E, putting the supplement to the test in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 100 healthy adults. The 12-week study found that participants taking the supplement showed statistical improvement in episodic memory when compared to those taking the placebo. One thing worth noting, this particular capsule lists gelatin among its ingredients, so vegetarians will want to avoid it.

Nu Skin MYND360 Night Time

To put the focus on your sleeping habits, the MYND360 Night Time supplement was formulated to help you fall asleep and support better quality sleep throughout the night. You may already be familiar with melatonin, which is included in the supplement to help you fall asleep faster, but it also includes magnesium and saffron extract. Magnesium, which is naturally found in foods like nuts and leafy greens, was selected for its ability to potentially improve the quality of sleep and leave you feeling more refreshed when waking up, while saffron is also thought to help with sleep quality, as well as with sleep duration. In addition to improving the quality of sleep, 89% of the participants in a clinical study reported that they felt less drowsy when waking up after taking the supplement daily for a 28-day period.

Nu Skin MYND360 Sharp Focus

Conversely, the Sharp Focus supplement may help with mental clarity and concentration throughout the day. Designed to be taken in the morning to maximize its potential benefits, the capsules are formulated with a blend of nutrients, vitamins, and plant extracts. Choline is the key ingredient in the supplement, which is naturally found in foods like eggs and fish, and has been shown to support functions ranging from memory and cognitive function to heart health. A plant extract used in Ayurvedic medicine called bacopa is included for its potential to improve attention, while vitamins B6 and B12 are noted as being important to support the nervous system as a whole. You’ll also find caffeine among the ingredients, which has been included in a microencapsulated form that gradually releases so that you get all of the concentration benefits without the jitters.

Nu Skin MYND360 Relaxing Body Cream

If supplements aren’t your thing, you can still set yourself up for a more restful sleep with this Relaxing Body Cream. The rich formula uses nourishing ingredients like shea butter, glycerin, and lotus flower water to keep skin moisturized without leaving behind a greasy film. Additionally, Nu Skin has included calcium and magnesium to deliver topical nutrients to the skin, plus, the brand’s Peaceful Woods fragrance to help you unwind after a long day.

Nu Skin MYND360 Energizing Hand And Body Wash

Then, when it’s time to get your day going, Nu Skin created this Energizing Hand And Body Wash, which uses a green apple and ginseng fragrance to have you feeling instantly refreshed. The multi-purpose formula is free from drying sulfates, and instead uses a coconut-derived surfactant to create a foamy lather and effectively cleanse the skin without being too drying.
