Understanding the code
In his twenties, Nick went to study acupuncture in California. During his first class, when he was taught about the five energies in Chinese medicine, he had a big revelation.
It was almost like in The Matrix, explains Nick. He suddenly understood himself differently, realized why certain events in politics and history had occurred, and saw background patterns in the way the world worked.
An introduction to the Five Energies
“At the Five Institute, the big thing is: we’re about kindness. That’s what we believe the world needs. One way to do that, particularly in terms of being kind to yourself … is to understand yourself and others in a very profound way – and the Vitality Test gives you the ability to understand yourself and others in a very unique way,” says Nick.
In our interview, Nick shares the characteristics of the five energies: water, wood, fire, earth, and metal. He speaks about the big questions that guide our lives within our energy setting and what enables us to step into our greatness.
Kindness Ambassador Nick
Nick’s purpose is his desire for everyone to have somebody to care for – and kindness is an excellent way to get there! Part of his mission is utilizing the Vitality Test and the Five Energies and creating kindness between couples and in relationships in general.
Nick explains: “To me, kindness is the vehicle for everyone to be there for each other in the fullest sense – to be non-judgmental, to be accepting, to be forgiving, to be all the things we need to have to support each other.” He speaks of the attitude of kindness as “kindset”.
