We
to Love
Choose
I've often thought about how emotions and information are like nutrients; they're only as effective and nourishing as our ability to absorb and process them.
We can accomplish miraculous things when we choose love, whether it be self-love, love for others, or love for this beautiful planet we inhabit. We begin to realize that we can become the change we wish to see, the positive energy we want to feel in the world and utilize the inexhaustible power of one of life's most healing and enigmatic gifts - love.
Love is a universal, self-replenishing force that flows through all of us.
In this issue, we explore the beguiling and enchanting theme of love. Plant seeds of love for yourself and for others, love and respect nature to show gratitude and reciprocation for her offerings, and watch your life blossom.
As the late songwriter Eden Ahbez so astutely captured in his song 'Nature Boy,' "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return."
Big love,
"“When we stop fighting with ourselves, we aren't creating any more conflict in our mind. Then our mind can, for the first time, relax and be still. Then for the first time, our consciousness can become whole and unfragmented. Then, total attention can be given to all of our thoughts and feelings. And then there will be found a gentleness and a goodness in us that can embrace all that has been given in the world. Then a deep love for everything will be the result of this deep attention. For this total attention, this soft and pure consciousness that we are, is nothing but Love itself."
- Jiddu Krishnamurti

A Message from the Directors
3 | hippocratesinst.org
Perpetually we are afforded the opportunity to speak one-on-one with people here in our guest programs and/or counseling as we travel the globe. One consistent thread that has reigned over the combined 100 years of work we have done is the need people have to love and be loved. To over simplify this statement, lack of love is at the core of all disorders, be it personal, social, cultural, or humanity wide. In all cases where we have had the privilege to witness thousands heal themselves of so-called “incurable disease,” it is self-love that sparks and carries them to the finish line of recovery. Historically, we have seen dark and hateful pursuits silenced by the likes of Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and Mandela. Stories have been told of Saint Francis, a real Italian figure who possessed so much love that he communed with nature and its creatures, including other humans, in a Godly manner to his inviting acceptance.
Advanced physicists today measure the power of love frequency and can demonstrate its ability to abolish less-formed sporadic frequencies of anger, fear, and hatred. When experiencing a newborn, most cannot help themselves from being an energy vampire when hugging and kissing them since their purity, innocence, and energy are enriching. People who have found themselves in the most horrific and inhumane
situations have often reported that they have stayed alive thinking about their love for somebody. Why we humans bathe in discord, creating hostility, separation, and violence, is because of the lack of self-respect that we have for ourselves. We are also clear that every disease, in part if not in great part, is psychologically and emotionally created by selfdoubt and/or loathing. Contrary to these negative manifestations is, that positive and clear vision is an affirmable agent in reversing illness. Here at Hippocrates Wellness, we have successfully employed this tool for more than 40 years.
Make love the most important pursuit in your life. You can be assured that once you raise yourself above the confused state of haphazard existence, you will, slowly but surely, abolish pain, suffering, and disharmony. As McCartney and Lennon beautifully stated, “LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED.”
Be well,
Brian and Anna Maria Clement Co-Directors, Hippocrates Wellness

Q: What’s the number one thing people can do to feel in control of their health?
- Bernice from Wilmington, MA
A: Befriending your body and mind is foremost in taking control of your health. When recognizing the gift that your life is, you begin to respect every aspect, starting with affirmative thoughts, clean plant-based foods, productive movement and exercise, connection with others, and a higher force. Ultimately, it is selfrespect that leads to positive health control.
Q: What is the best food to eat before a workout?
- Tyra from Austin, TX
A: The best food before a workout is “no food.” Using raw fresh green juice made with sprouts will provide you with the high protein and carb requirement, fueling aerobic and weightlifting endeavors. You may also want to add some algae and/or pollen supplements.
Q: How important is EMF protection?
- Wim from Rotterdam
A: Today we are bathing in electromagnetic frequencies that are playing havoc on our mind and body. Protecting your home and workplace with proven technologies like WaveRider and/or Cocoon and implementing our advanced technology-HHI Pulse, around the neck affixed near the solar plexus is a maximum protection from the pervasive hazard. You should also affix LifeGive 360 to phones, computer routers, and laptops. Heavy users should wear Shungite bracelets on their wrists that they most use to carry cell phones.
Q: Would you say diet is more important than exercise when losing weight?
- Susan from Portland
A: In our latest book, Self-Healing Diet, we discuss the plethora of excess weight culprits. Exercise and proper plant-based foods are equally important but equally necessitated. For example, 82% of muscle comes from fat, so weightlifting helps to burn it off and build up body mass. Aerobics helps to heat up the body and expedite circulation dramatically, increasing weight loss and detox. Following this up with saunas is even better. The Hippocrates diet is, by far, via research, the most effective in regulating weight and does not disturb the intestinal bacteria if applied sensibly by an experienced healthcare professional.
Q: What is the best way to combat stress and anxiety?
- Erik from Malmo, Sweden
A: Being brave enough to find your passion and reject relationships and work that does not fulfill you is most important. Daily mindfulness practices (meditation, contemplation, prayer, visualization, forest bathing, etc.) allow you to focus and eliminate the annoying noise that raises cortisol (the stress hormone). The supplement from the African bean 5-HTP or the traditional Ayurvedic plant (Ashwagandha) has both scientifically shown great benefit to curve stress and anxiety.
Q: Do you have a personal mantra that keeps you on track with your health goals?
- Michael from London
A: Yes, several times every day, I remind myself that all is exactly as it should be, and I have the ability to make the necessary change to make it all ok. When internalizing this simple yet powerful thought, you recognize that all is good, and you are ultimately in control. My assistant, Iesha, practices affirmative thought via daily notes that she keeps in her pocket to pull out and repeat to herself throughout the day.
Q: Is Quercetin good for allergies? What would you recommend?
- Janet from Idaho
A: Quercetin has been helpful in some forms of allergy. One must discover why you are reacting to a certain environment, food, or plant. With the advance of vaccines, poisonous chemicals, and genetic modification in the food chain, allergic reactions are now commonplace. Eating clean, fasting when appropriate, and utilizing a variety of anti-allergy herbal supplements until you find the one that best suits you is the best approach.
Q: How important is sleep to health?
- Robert from Hamburg
A: Sleep is as important as any other lifestyle expression. Sleep researchers tell us after 25 years old, throughout life, the average person requires 8 to 8 ½ hours of sleep per night. Some can do well on 7 hours, as others can do well on 9 hours, but no one does well on 6 ½ hours or less, or 10 hours or more - which indicates depression. From infancy to 25 years of age, you can sleep for longer periods since the body and brain are both still in the developmental stage. This is why babies can sleep up to 20 hours per day, and a teenager or someone in their 20s can sleep up to 14 hours without it being a concern. Lack of sleep destroys immune function, neurological health, and mental wellbeing.

LIFE TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM
ONE OF BELOW PROTOCOLS
By Anna Maria Clement
Modern-day Slavery affects more than 40 million people worldwide – more than at any other time in history
25 | hippocrateswellness.org
Each year, a minimum of 2 million and up to 4 million people are abducted and controlled by someone. 50% are children that often are made into sex workers. The United States is the biggest offender in this perverted abomination. The fastest-growing criminal endeavor in history is Human Trafficking. Over the last 5-years, child pornography sites riddled with these sex slaves have grown by five times. Soon it is projected to supersede the illicit drug trade soaring into hundreds of billions of dollars. One police officer described it as even worse than the numerous murder scenes he attended during his long career. Destroying the lives of fellow humans for perversion or greed is one of the most reptilian and uncivil acts our species can precipitate.
Recently a young woman came through our program who described how in her teens, she was abducted by a pornography ring and encaged as a sex object for sick men who had a psychological disorder to victimize children. Needless to say, this irreparably changed her life. Still, she was one of the few with the means and ability to do something about it and is proactive in helping prevent and eventually reverse this sick undertaking. Worldwide, children are locked into rooms where men, and sometimes women, pay large sums to assault and rape these innocents. These rings of depraved, mentally sick perverts get away with this by shipping the unsuspecting children to faraway destinations where laws are loose or nonexistent. Remember, there are still societies and cultures within the world that continue to disrespect and abuse girls, who are considered objects of pleasure rather than fellow, equal human beings. Many countries still foster child labor, so it is not a unique auditee that they would think, with a perverted mind, that you could have sex with a youngster. It is time that we place this act at the top of our list as an unacceptable criminal act. We should mandate life sentences without parole for anyone involved with assaulting our vulnerable children.
Jeffrey Epstein was a perfect example of the profile of many of these mentally deranged men who victimized vulnerable innocents. If you look at the wide array of notables in his sphere of influence, it should anger and appall you. How is it that they have not all been brought to
justice? If our judicial system in democratic countries is so broken that we allow perverts to prey on and victimize our children, we are not a conscious and civil society. There is no excuse ever to hurt and wound a child. No parameters allow this to be permissible, and if you somehow feel it can be, you better do some deep soul-searching. We must mandate that our officials place resources and mind trust into this expeditiously expansive growth industry before our entire moral and ethical society collapses.
SOUND OF FREEDOM is a film currently circulating globally that the powers that be have tried to prevent showing in theaters for 5 years. When Brian and I viewed this on the big screen, I have never been more emotionally touched and angered at the same time. It is an interesting and all-encompassing true tale about a courageous and good American man who risked his own life to save dozens of these sex-slave children. That was the encouraging part of this extraordinary movie. What was provocative and seemed overwhelming was how his exceptional commitment only placed a small dent in the façade of this industry. WE ENCOURAGE YOU AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO WATCH THIS FILM. You should also consider asking your local theater to offer private screenings for groups or organizations you may be associated with. Ultimately, get involved with this shocking dilemma called Human Trafficking and either place time or money into preventing the next fellow human or baby from having their life stolen from them.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT THAT THE FILM ORGANIZERS AND SUPPORTERS CREATED AN ORGANIZATION CALLED 2MILLIONFOR2MILLION WHERE YOU CAN PAY IT FORWARD OR PURCHASE TICKETS FOR PEOPLE WHO MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE THEATER. ANGEL.COM/FREEDOM

We Belong to Love
By Andy Roman
The magic moments of life are highlighted with love. Like when my daughter was born and then again when my granddaughters were born. My heart was overflowing! But I’m realizing that love doesn’t just occasionally appear in the scheme of things; it IS the scheme of things. It flows like an underground river and, according to Providence and our thirst, surfaces in fresh springs for us to quench our deepest needs.
Its currents carry our impulses to care and take care, weaving us together. Love shows up as needs met. Children who grow up with love-needs not met warp and fragment into hurt adults who hurt adults. Love not felt begets suffering.
All the fussing and fighting around and within us are symptoms of love lost and living lost from love. Bitterness in life marks the loss of love’s sweetness. Love tenderly caresses our unseen roots to remind us of its presence, even as the wind shakes our branches. Love beckons us silently and promises to save and transform us from the dead to the living, from the lost to the found. Listen to the call of love:
matter how broken we find ourselves, and despite all our flaws, it remains our destiny to tap into the undercurrent of love that runs through everything and be restored. Love is real, and even in our darkest hour, we can feel it.
Human love is divine love with ADHD; it’s messy, sometimes erratic, always exciting, superstimulating, and ever-conducive to growth and transformation. Behind the scenes of human love, Divine Love smiles at our efforts. Whenever love triumphs over differences or discord, babies laugh, and angels get their wings. When we surrender to love, victory is ours. Not the victory of dominance, but the victory of dominion, where opposites kiss as lovers, and we rise to dance with the stars. Love makes for the deepest and quietest celebrations and throws the best and loudest parties. Love is what we live for.
(If doctors only knew the medicine in their bedside manner, hospitals would be hospitable again. Care would return to healthcare. Yes, love belongs in medicine because it IS medicine.)
Even though life is no joke, love makes us laugh. Babies laugh even before they can talk. Love is their mother tongue, and they are more fluent than any poet. They cry and fuss to soak in what is rightfully theirs. The love sponge award goes to babies. And we’re all babies.
Healing means returning to love. Love’s journey into wholeness starts with self-acceptance. When we take care of ourselves and nurture our health, we discover and uncover a natural gusto for living that fills every breathing moment with purpose and pleasure. No
Love also laughs at us, and we don’t mind because Love is kind. Love is like a big brother or sister that nudges, guides, protects, and teaches us how to be brave even when confronted by bullies. Love teases us because we are kids, and it will kid us until our own kids have their own kids. Love is here to stay. There’s nothing you or I could do to make love say, “Not today." That is the way of love.
“Surrender now. Live now. Love now.”
29 | hippocrateswellness.org
We row as slaves on love’s war barge, but we are not chained to our stations. We row with a will because there is a battle to be won, and we are each the chosen one on the path of reclaiming our divine inheritance. The ruby fields of tulips and amethyst fields of lavender that have been in our family for generations have been usurped, and we want them back. The flowers of fulfillment belong to us. It is a privilege to serve on this galley because look at who our captain is: King Arthur, Queen Esther, Wonder Woman, Robin Hood, and all our heroes, embodied into one righteous leader. We fight the honorable fight, and not with pink gloves, but with purple hearts. We fight from our woundedness for the right to stop bleeding and start celebrating. Even on the battlefield, we celebrate because we know there is no losing. We’re on the right team, and love is ours. We belong to love, and love belongs to us.
In fact, love owns us, and even though we’ve been sold into slavery and kidnapped to foreign lands, love has never lost sight of us and continues to negotiate for our release. Love is willing to pay a hefty sum for our return. (Thanks to the mystic poet, Hafiz, for this image.)
When love says to me: “you are mine,” it is my honor to reply in kind. I am living a once-in-alifetime love affair, both shy and bold. Love is kind and sweet that way.
I say, if I am to be a slave, let me be a slave to love. If I am to be a beggar, let me humbly beg to sit at love’s banquet table, which, unbeknownst to me, has been prepared in my honor. Amnesia be gone! I remember now! I am the rightful heir to this good fortune, which I can now accept because I know the dessert whence I came.
The strings of my heart beg for the Master to strum me into wakefulness. Let me attend to love’s song first thing in the morning and all throughout the day. When I rest, let me dream love’s dream. When I move, let me be love’s puppet. Love and I belong together.
And finally, let me enter love’s deepest inner chamber of quietude. Let me listen within and discover the dictates of my own heart. And finally, finally. Let me receive my birthright of love’s peace. Let today forever be my birthday. Love and I are one.

Breakthrough Technologies From Marine Algae Found In The Hippocrates 'BECOME' Skincare Range
Over the past years, the importance of marine algae in skincare has firmly found its place in the spa industry. Pure seaweed powders are commonly used in body wraps, facial masks, scalp treatments, and hydrotherapy. A mask made of pure Laminaria algae powder is still considered an amazing antiaging treatment transporting vital elements and vitamins to the skin that are both biocompatible and bioavailable.
However, thousands of species of marine algae dwell in the ocean coastlines, most of which are yet to be analyzed for potential human benefits. I would like to touch on a few of these algae we are using that possess special properties you should know about.
First, let's discuss the causes of some species of algae that have extraordinary powers. Environmental Stress! Extreme conditions such
as frigid temperatures, availability of sunlight, Ultraviolet exposure, etc., stimulate certain algae to modify their DNA to adapt to these stressful conditions. These algae and other plant life are called Extremophiles—organisms that can adapt and even thrive under conditions not hospitable to most life forms. To survive, they may produce enzymes to protect their DNA, create extra powerful antioxidants, or buffers to counteract extremely acidic or alkaline environments.
We should also note that these extraordinary marine elements and extracts work within the matrix of phytochemicals synthesized by algae. This is referred to as an 'entourage effect,' which means that these ingredients work more efficiently within the algae matrix, as explained in the book Supplements Exposed by Dr. Brian Clement.

Fucoidan: Anacystis Nidulans:
There is not enough room to tout the extraordinary marine polysaccharide. This extremophile is secreted by the family of brown algae, including Laminaria, Fucus, Ascophyllum, and Undaria, during low tides when exposed to ultraviolet rays. Fucoidan protects algae DNA and works similarly when extracted and applied topically. Research from labs in Russia, Australia, France, etc., shows that:
- When applied topically, it helps prevent collagenase and elastase, which are enzymes that break down connective tissue
- Working with Polyphenols provides strong antioxidant protection
- Stimulates collagen synthesis according to research from Australia as well as the Pasteur Institute
This is on top of the many health benefits of Fucoidan, which nutritionally supports liver functions and, most impressively, promotes cellular apoptosis (destruction of cancer cells).
Imagine an algal extract that can repair the damage done to sunburned skin within 24 hours. Researchers discovered a unique enzyme taken from plankton that does just that.
Floating atop the ocean's surface, plankton is subjected to extreme levels of ultraviolet rays that are damaging to its DNA. To defend against harmful mutations, it synthesizes a unique enzyme that repairs strands of DNA that scientists call dimers—strands of DNA where certain molecules become misaligned. In other words, one of the nucleic acids becomes depolarized and repels a similarly charged guanine nucleotide. When your skin cells' DNA is exposed to UV rays, the same thing occurs that, over time, can lead to accelerated aging symptoms and, eventually, cancer. (See the before and after images left).
The DNA on the top is like a comet having a ball and a "tail" with damaged DNA strands. The view below shows normal healthy DNA that plankton enzymes have repaired.
Without getting too technical, plankton enzymes contribute DNA healing ions to the surface of your skin and reverse any damage. But there is a catch. Activating the healing enzymes requires exposure to sunlight. Ironically, it takes sunlight to activate the algae's enzymes to repair the damage from the sun's UV rays!
Below is a description of a few of them, what makes them unique, and in which products they can be found.
Found in Joy (Moisturizing Cream) 32 | hippocrateswellness.org
Astaxanthin:
Ultimate antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, more powerful than beta-carotene, is the product of an alga known as Haemotacoccus Pluvialis.
This microalga produces the strongest carotenoid to defend its DNA from harmful UV rays. Originally green in color, it turns blood red after 48 hours of exposure to the sun.
When extracted, it is added to skin oils and serums for its skin-calming properties and antioxidants to protect your skin from environmental aging factors. Japanese studies also demonstrated the anti-wrinkle properties of astaxanthin. In a 2001 study conducted by Seki et al., female subjects experienced a reduction of wrinkles using a cream with astaxanthin. A dermatological assessment showed more. A reduction of puffiness around the eyes and a significant increase in skin hydration was observed after only 2 weeks.
Found in all aromatherapy facial oils, A Little Tenderness Gel
Dunaliella Salina:
Speaking of extremophiles, this microalga thrives under extreme sun exposure and intense osmotic pressure caused by super saline waters. The result is an alga that has learned to adapt, synthesizing a range of carotenoids to defend its DNA and cellular functions. These qualities are most valuable in skincare through its antioxidant and anti-glycation properties to fight signs of aging and reduce the effects of long exposure to the sun and other environmental aging factors. (Glycation is the bonding of sugar molecules to collagen fibers and other connective tissues in the skin that interfere with their normal function, accelerating the aging process).
A team of researchers led by Fabien Havas conducted a placebo-controlled clinical study under intense solar exposure significantly and found that Dunaliella salina algae "reduced the skin's glycation scores and its sensitivity to histamine; key skin aging parameters were also significantly improved vs. placebo, including wrinkle counts and spots."
Found in After Sun Mist

Rainbow Algae: Arctic Lichens
Rainbow Algae: Reducing the appearance of age spots with results showing in only one week! Cytoseira Tamariscifolia is yet another seaweed that exemplifies the adaptive properties of marine algae. It is an iridescent species that dwells along the north shore of the Brittany coast. Like a chameleon, its fatty acid spheres along its surface change colors to better capture sunlight for photosynthesis. Depending upon the tidal depth (2-40 feet every six hours), and weather conditions, the seaweed can change from red/purple to blue/green.
Researchers isolated the actives responsible and found they could prevent melanogenesis when applied to the skin. These melano-busters help to even out skin tone, reduce the appearance of age spots, and work synergistically with vitamin C esters.
Found in Luminous Vitamin C Serum and Skin Brightening Mask Treatments
When exposed to low temperatures, Chondrus Crispus (Irish Moss) synthesizes a dipeptide rich in nitrogen: citrulline-arginine. The algae metabolize this dipeptide in the spring to stimulate its growth. Citrullyl-arginine is extracted and, when applied on the skin, is very moisturizing and energizing and allows cells to maintain optimal activity even in extreme conditions and to resist skin dehydration by building up the skin's barrier. This is especially useful during the winter months when the air is dryer and skin exposed to extreme cold experiences sluggish metabolism and is subject to irritation.
Found in Luminous Vitamin C Serum and Skin Brightening Mask Treatments
This is a brief overview of some of the extraordinary ingredients nature provides us with from the sea—the source of life itself. We are committed to continued research to find more healthful remedies in the future. exposed to extreme cold experiences sluggish metabolism and is subject to irritation.

The Potency of Energy Medicine
Ethics
It probably began thousands of years ago in ancient Greece; all this questioning. The father of philosophy seemed genuinely committed to finding what fundamentally mattered in life. He asked his students, "What is a good man?" and "What is justice?" And when the Athenian government demanded he stop 'corrupting the youth,' Socrates proved his sincerity by accepting a death sentence in 399 BC rather than ceasing those questions. "The unexamined life," he said, "is not worth living."
By Augusta Malacarne
Pragmatics
Now, the rival school of Sophists had no such inhibitions. They already knew what 'justice' was, discovering the means to get what you deserved. And 'good' was anytime you got what you wanted. The Sophists prompted Diogenes (412-323 BC) to wander through Athens at noon with a lighted lamp, saying he was searching for an honest man! In 1740, David Hume, a skeptic Scot, in A Treatise of Human Nature, questioned whether anything at all could be known without scientific proof. The 'good' and the 'just' that Socrates sought were unverifiable.
37 | hippocrateswellness.org
Birth of a Nation
Emmanuel Kant (1724-1804) in Germany rescued morality by positing certain values as given, a priori, recognized without scientific or objective proof. In 1776, in the American colonies, Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. "David Hume would argue this is a sentiment with no scientific basis. But this was true for 18th-century Americans, prima facie and ipso facto! End of discussion!
Critical Theory
More than 100 years later, the women's movement, invoking the First Amendment's right to freedom of speech, publicly asked a profound question: Since 'women' were subsumed under the term 'men' and 'men' had the right to vote, why weren't women allowed to vote? And so, in 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution franchised 26 million American women in time for the U.S. presidential election. The Roaring 20s followed.
Meanwhile, in Frankfurt, Germany, the success of women in winning the vote was not lost on a group of young intellectuals who saw an opportunity in the cultural victory of the suffrage movement. In 1923, they established The Institute of Social Research (ISR) at Goethe University. Herbert Marcuse (1898-1979), author of One Dimensional Man, and Eric Seligman Fromm (1900-1980), author of Reason and Revolution, the founders, sought to liberate human beings from the circumstances that enslaved them. They believed the best way to change society for the better was to change it culturally. Their tool was Critical Theory. They reasoned that the public would see the benefits of change by criticizing the norms of societal behavior. The philosopher John Dewey, in 1934, invited the Frankfurt School advocates into the Teachers' College at Columbia University in New York. The movement flourished, establishing a presence at Berkeley, Princeton, and Brandeis.
Post-war America in the 1950s was an innocent time of prosperity, suburban growth, and optimism. Every year, from 1950 to 1959, over 4 million babies were born. More men and women were enrolled in higher education, and more leisure time was available.
This seemed an ideal time to reassess the past and reevaluate the future. Here, the relocated Frankfurt School and Critical Theory provided the tools for change, advocating feminism, humanism, environmentalism, and multiculturalism. Over the next 60 years, Critical Theory expanded to influence students and professors across America. The idea of questioning both policies and values of a society enjoying prosperity and success had broad appeal.

Community Organizer
One prominent advocate of the movement was Saul Alinsky, a community organizer from Chicago (19091972), so influential that he inspired three future U.S. presidential candidates. His book, Rules for Radicals, provided ten practical lessons for uniting people into active grassroots organizations with the power to effect change. Hillary Clinton discovered Alinsky while at Wellesley College. She wrote her Honors Thesis on his work, inviting him to speak at Wellesley. In Kenneth Timmerman's book Shake Down, the author explores the career of Reverend Jessie Jackson, breaking down barriers to political and economic access. By questioning major corporations about their hiring practices and demographics, Jackson funded his organization People United to Save Humanity (PUSH) with millions in federal grants and set-asides and millions from companies like Coca-Cola, Kentucky Fried Chicken, 7-11, and Burger King. By 1984, Jackson was a household name and candidate for president. Barack Obama completed Alinsky's national training course and became a teacher of community organizing techniques in Chicago. The Washington Post described Alinsky's justice approach as "relying on generating conflict to mobilize the dispossessed." The triumph of the art of the question! Questioning whether actions were consistent with values espoused.
Hollywoodland
Over the same 60-year period, from 1960 to the present, Hollywood cooperated with a similar challenge to traditional values. Edward Bernays, who was proud to be the nephew of Sigmund Freud and who inspired the Madison Avenue advertising phenomenon, said in his book, Propaganda: "Americans cannot underestimate the effect of movies on their psyche." The 2006 film Hollywoodland, starring Ben Affleck as George Reeves, the original Superman in the 1951 television series, recounts the mysterious gunshot death of the star in 1959 and the devastation the news that 'Superman' had died had on millions of American boys who worshiped 'the man of steel.'
The 1978 revival of Superman starred Christopher Reeve, who in 1985 was paralyzed in a horseriding accident. Reeve died in 2004 at the age of 52. The death of heroes in movies and television, and the emergence of the antihero, transformed entertainment media dramatically. Shows from 60 years ago, like, I Love Lucy, Leave it to Beaver, and Ozzie and Harriet were replaced by All in the Family and, more recently, Sex and the City and The Big Bang Theory. The ideal of hegemonic masculinity and idealized femininity had been replaced. Men are now more emotional, considerate, and less dominating. The father as the leader who provides structure and the mother as the nurturer
who follows the husband are receding roles. Even television advertisements that have become the equivalent of Medieval Morality plays no longer portray males as alpha. In the 1997 war drama GI Jane, Demi Moore is a 5 ft. 6 inch, 135 pounds, shaved-headed female who outperforms all the manly men on the front lines as a U.S. Marine. In the July 2010 issue of the Atlantic, Hanna Rosen wrote, "American pop culture keeps producing variations on the omega male who ranks even below the beta in the wolf pack. This often unemployed, romantically challenged loser can show up as a perpetual adolescent in Knocked Up or The 40-Year-Old Virgin or a happy couch potato on a Bud Light commercial."
"Americans cannot underestimate the effect of movies on their psyche."

The Sappho Sewing Circle
In addition, a book like Open Secret by David Ehrenstein disclosed that many male screen idols that made women swoon were more attracted to the same sex. Female stars, too, it seems, though adored by male moviegoers, were more enamored by female companions. Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Joan Crawford, Myrna Loy, and, more recently, Kelly McGillis, Tom Cruise's squeeze in Top Gun. Behind the Scenes, How Gays and Lesbians Shaped Hollywood, by William Mann, endorses that view. Furthermore, in Full Service, The Secret Sex Life of The Stars, Scottie Bowers claims romances with Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant. The assault on masculinity even became a military operation in 1994 when the Wright Laboratory in Ohio, a predecessor of today's U.S. Air Force Research Lab, proposed a $7.5 million project which would spray an aphrodisiac on enemy troops, perhaps by chemtrails, to dissuade the soldiers from fighting and interest them more in amorous activity with each other. The non-lethal 'gay bomb' was an outgrowth of the military research, documented in the George Clooney movie Men Who Stare at Goats, into remote viewing.

Equality
In 1972, Congress proclaimed that college funding for female sports had to be as plentiful as funding for male sports. Title IX was an extension of the right-to-vote legislation. Tennis credits Title IX for inspiring equal payouts for women and men in major tournaments. Although women play two out of three sets while men play three out of five, both champions at the US Open receive $2.6 million. However, in 2022, a 22-year-old male college swimmer, William Thomas, decided he was female. Changing his name to Lia, Thomas entered the NCAA women's swimming championship. The transgender swimmer told Sports Illustrated that he demonstrated that young trans athletes "don't have to choose between who they are and the sport they love ."In previous swimming contests, Thomas had won several women's titles, setting records in the 200 and the 500-yard freestyle.
Everybody thought the difference between a man and a woman was the Y sex chromosome. Women have 2 X chromosomes, men an X and Y. But Critical Theory finds even this open to question. Since William Thomas' attempt to swim as a woman would generate legal challenges when Judge Ketanji Brown sought U.S. Senate confirmation for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court in 2022, a Senator, Marsha Blackburn, asked her to define a 'woman .'Judge Brown declined, claiming that since she was not a biologist, she could not say what a woman was. Justice Brown was then confirmed.
All this is important because, over the last 60 years, American males' testosterone levels have been concomitantly dropping like a stone.
The Urology Times Journal, in 2020, confirmed that from 1999 to 2016, in America, testosterone levels declined in adolescent and young adult men. Sourn Lokeshwar MD, a Urology resident at Yale School of
Medicine, said, "Testosterone deficiency has a prevalence of 10% - 40% among adult males and 20% among young adult men (15-39 years.) We have seen that lower values of testosterone have been associated with increased comorbidities. This decline, with increased obesity, may lead to an increase in precocious cancer. Such decreases can also lower libido and increase the risk for erectile dysfunction."
This drop in testosterone levels is even more alarming because of the link between higher testosterone levels and high IQ. University of Alberta researcher Marty Mrazik, Ph.D., suggests prenatal exposure to testosterone could result in cognitive giftedness. A decline in testosterone can also be related to fertility, a decline in baby production, and a decline in marriages. In The Decline of Men, Guy Garcia writes: "The classic male virtues - physical strength, aggression, self-sufficiency, resolve - that were useful in agrarian and industrial societies are increasingly outdated in a postmodern world where networking, cooperation, and communication are key."
Is the traditional ideal of masculinity in danger of becoming obsolete?
The reason for this dramatic decline, however, puzzles researchers. Some blame obesity, which is rampant in America. But Dr. Joel Wallach, author of It's All in Your Head, claims that the lack of testosterone causes the routine pot belly of many men over 40. He recommends the supplementation of 90 essential nutrients, 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 12 amino acids, and 3 fatty acids to correct the deficiency. the nurturer who follows the husband are receding

"All this is important because over the last 60 years, American males’ testosterone levels have been concomitantly dropping like a stone."
The War on Health
In Killer Clothes (2011), Anna Maria and Brian Clement cite how the flame retardant Tris is a human carcinogen. "This chemical causes testicular atrophy and sterility" (Science 1977). And in Poison Poultry (2017), Brian Clement, co-director of Hippocrates Wellness, reports, "If you eat chickens and their eggs, your chances go way up that you will contract prostate cancer at some point in your life."
The usual suspects of laptops, cell phones, sedentary lifestyle, pollution, plastic bottles, pesticides, additives, soy-based foods, and even estrogen in wastewater from flushed birth control pills have been accused of the increase in 'soy boys' and, as Arnold Schwarzenegger says, 'girly men.'
In, Let's Get Well (1965), Adele Davis claimed, "The Great American Hamburger has done tremendous harm to health ."She explained that beef is fattened with synthetic female hormones contributing to cancer and harming male virility. I'm amazed there are any functioning males in this country of steak eaters.
We are literally at the mercy of the unethical refined food industry, who take all the vitamins and minerals out of food." In Eating Ourselves Sick (2017), Louise Stephan writes," Big Food is picking up where Big Tobacco left off, employing skillful marketing to nudge us towards increasingly processed food while hoping we'll fail to notice the commensurate rise in obesity and decline in health."
Historically, Big Tobacco companies took over Big Food companies, including R.J. Reynold's $4.9 billion acquisition of Nabisco in 1985 and Phillip Morris's $5.75 billion acquisition of General Foods. One researcher, Suzanne Burdick, concluded that having spent decades optimizing the speed of delivery of nicotine to the brain, Big Tobacco then continued to harness that science in their food products by turning food into "another addictive drug."

The Answer
So, what can be done to boost the male hormone and fertility in, as Brian Clement aptly put it, "the abundant darkness that prevails in our broken society and misuse of culture"? The usual remedies are a plant-based organic diet, sprouts, (especially fenugreek), adzuki beans, and good cholesterol, the building blocks of hormones. Hippocrates Wellness offers the ultimate programs for increasing testosterone and optimal health. Its on-campus store offers targeted supplements, Hormone Power, Nitrate Oxide, Ginseng, Circulation Max, Zinc, pumpkin seed oil, and vitamin D, itself a hormone.
But it is also important to remember Adele Davis' warning, "You are what you eat, but you are also what you think." Benjamin Franklin urged Americans that "it is the first responsibility of every citizen to question authority." But constantly providing your body and mind with signals of worry, anxiety, and negative emotions moves your being into a sympathetic state, unable to regenerate. Constantly questioning basic values and behavior like that of Critical Theory and Woke culture can produce devastating effects. Adele Davis defined stress as anything which causes disease. And this explains, in part, why so many otherwise intelligent people get sick.
No Time to Die
In the 2019 movie, No Time to Die, the usually sophisticated, confident, patriotic, and womanizing James Bond was suddenly no more. Sean Connery's Bond promoted M16 and Great Britain's extreme measures to defend the country. His films even developed some sympathy for ignoring laws to protect the realm. But Daniel Craig's Bond is now a troubled and depressed man, moping around for three hours waiting to be killed by a weaponized virus escaping a London lab. The emasculated Bond is driven around by a new agent who tells him she is 007 now. And so, the death of Bond had a similar effect on the 007 lovers around the world that American boys of the 1950s felt when their hero, Superman, died of causes other than kryptonite.
The Healing
Hormone
And now, GQ magazine, in 2022, interviewed Brad Pitt, who played the god Achilles in Troy, in a dress, talking about his recurring nightmares. On the cover, Brad is depicted dead, floating in flowers. Avatar director James Cameron even claims, "Testosterone is a toxin that needs to be worked out of the system." However, the universe we inhabit, along with delivering a great challenge, sometimes provides the healing antidote. In this case, Hippocrates Wellness has assembled a splendid array of state-of-the-art technologies that encourage the human body to heal itself and, indeed, to generate more testosterone.
Sabrina Ciceri, Director of Immunity Health on the Hippocrates campus, provides the ultimate estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone testing and intravenous therapies. "Synthetic hormones can be dangerous, but bioidentical hormones are safe and effective. All the eleven organ systems communicate through hormones."

Energy Medicine
One premium technology at Hippocrates Wellness is Red Light Therapy, an LED source bathing the torso and testicles with 600-950 nanometers wavelengths. The red light stimulates ATP production, increases the energy available to cells, and significantly increases the activity of the Leydig cells in the testes, which produce both testosterone and sperm cells. Women in menopause can enjoy the benefits of Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF). Increasing their testosterone levels supports their bones, cardiovascular system, and cognitive function. Ovaries produce testosterone, and PEMF can restore healthy levels with healing frequencies in 20-minute sessions.
PEMF is a vibrating electromagnetic field that penetrates deeply into the body's tissues nourishing and stimulating healthy cellular regeneration. Hippocrates Energy Medicine Department provides over a dozen proven technologies, including CoMra, QRS, and BrainTap, to soothe the guest into a parasympathetic state to counteract the anxiety and
depression of the sympathetic state; to encourage healing over a wide range of challenges. Specific frequency protocols can target a particular organ, including the endocrine system, to accelerate healing. Dr. Linus Pauling, Nobel Prize winner and advocate of Vitamin C for healing, said, "PEMF is a benefit for humankind from infant to the geriatric and will lead to a change in the paradigm of medicine." Hippocrates Wellness has applied this "new paradigm of medicine" for over 40 years!
Energy Medicine supports anti-aging, cell regeneration, immunity, and optimal health. Affordable, portable Energy Medicine technology is now available for home use. Some of these devices are currently on promotion.

What do fast-food wrappers, pizza boxes, nail polish, and waterrepellant clothing have in common?
These and many other commonly used products contain very toxic, highly pervasive manufactured chemicals that have seeped into our environment – including our municipal water supply – and threaten public health.
Dubbed the “everywhere chemical” or the “forever chemical,” per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been widely used since the 1950s. Because they are not degradable, they accumulate in our environment and bodies over time. Most Americans are completely unsuspecting of their prevalence as well as the damage these stubborn chemicals can do.
Where Do They Come From?
An estimated 9,000 PFAS chemicals in existence today, with Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) among the most common ones. PFAS are found in the foams used by firefighters and also in not-so-obvious items such as household cleaning products, stainresistant furniture, carpeting, waterproof clothing and shoes, and non-stick chemical coatings in our cookware (think Teflon).
PFAS have also been found in fast-food wrappers, pizza boxes, bags containing microwavable popcorn, and personal care products such as nail polish, cosmetics, and lipsticks –sometimes even those products labeled as “green.”
What Are the Harmful Effects of PFAS?
Remember that these “forever chemicals” do not readily degrade. Occasional exposure to these chemicals may not seem like much, but the cumulative effect of the ingestion of PFAS has landed these chemicals on my “high alert” list. In other words, these chemicals build up over time as we are constantly exposed to them.
Nearly all of us here in the U.S. have PFAS in our blood. In fact, these chemicals are found in the umbilical cord blood of babies as well as the breast milk provided for them!
The most vulnerable of our population is starting out at a distinct disadvantage.
Over time, these chemicals can do a lot of damage to our bodies:
• PFAS are endocrine-disrupting chemicals and can wreak havoc with our hormones.
• PFAS are related to kidney and testicular cancer.
• PFAS are also related to liver and thyroid problems.
• PFAS have been linked to an increased risk of congenital disabilities and other reproductive problems, including the timing of puberty in our children.
Bottom line? It is HIGHLY advisable to avoid the over-accumulation of PFAS for yourself and your family. But how do you do that?
Making Your Water Safe to Drink.
Gone are the days when you could assume that the drinking water from your tap – or even the bottled water you pay for –is safe to consume.
It takes a special kind of water filter to trap these “everywhere, forever” chemicals. Be wary of over-the-counter and portable water filters that may not unable to filter out these toxic chemicals. A better option is a customized whole-house water filter.
When it comes to water and air— the basic, essential necessities for maintaining human life on Earth – we simply cannot deny the fact that these essentials remain in jeopardy.
As a water quality expert and health practitioner, I have dedicated more than 35 years to designing affordable, effective water filtration systems that will remove the range of toxic contaminants found in your home water supply. It is a combination of unique filtration components and filter media that creates maximum water contamination barriers.
Our one and only goal at CWR Environmental is to help you protect your health, improve the quality of your life, and ensure your water is as clean as nature intended. Please contact CWR so that we may help you determine the water filtration system that is best for your family and home.

Choose to Live in
Conceived in love and nurtured for 8.5 months in a healthy womb was the best beginning I could have ever asked for.
Only to be ripped out, to arrive into a cold, loveless, white world. Never touched or held by my 16-year-old birth mother, I was instantly a ward of the state.
I desired love so badly that I was ignorant of the depths to which I would go to feel loved.
Love - caring for something, sacrificing yourself for something or someone, providing your best for something you value.
TV was my first exposure to love. Stealing glimpses of soap operas through the keyhole in the closet or seeing people that didn’t look like me appear as though they were happy as they hugged one another and expressed affection, even towards children.
The second youngest of eight foster children, I provided much-needed nurturing to my siblings as we huddled together, bruised and battered by those entrusted with our care. Though I had never experienced love for myself, my soul knew how to give the love I craved to my siblings.
Adopted at age four into a loving, multicultural family, I was always suspicious and questioning the meanings of all words and unaware that most of life is transactional. Outside of my home, where everyone was kind and we lived in harmony, the world I experienced was calculating, prejudiced, and painful. I was typically the token black child, which felt like I wasn’t good enough to be accepted
By Oshun Marcella
as myself.
My adoptive parents were a living example of love. They shared that love generously with everyone, especially their children. Their love and nurturing restored my battered heart to wholeness. Through love, acceptance, and sacrifice, they showed my siblings and me that everything we ever dreamed of could be possible.
After years of therapy and growth, I choose to live in love. Love is far easier to access and feels much better than fear. Often, it has been other people who have very different experiences of love than I do who have judged me. Our capacity to give love the way we receive it and cherish it typically isn't the same.
I choose to surrender to nature as a guide to love. As love exists in our DNA, the key is beginning with self-love and self-care, creating a world of joy and happiness, and enhancing the lives that I have the opportunity to be a part of and influence. That is my love.
My love for my children and grandchildren has enriched my life beyond measure and allowed me to bring love full circle. It is my love for them, and my desire for their generations to inherit a better world that fuels my passion for healthy living.
Each one Reach one, Each one Teach one.

You can find us gathering in the Wigmore Hall Conference Room on Wednesday evenings as guests, staff, and alumni (via Zoom!) participate in The Peace Education Program (PEP), an innovative series of video-based workshops that help people discover their own inner strength and personal peace. Hippocrates hosts a unique version of the program that involves both a live and virtual audience. Current Wellness guests start the ten-week program in person and are then invited to complete the series from home.
The PEP gives us the opportunity to focus and reflect on our humanity and our inner resources, such as choice, hope, and dignity. Rather than describing or defining these inner qualities, the program empowers us to reach our own understanding. It stands free of any religious, spiritual, or political agendas. We listen, explore, and share. Everyone benefits.
Each workshop features video excerpts of renowned author Prem Rawat's inspiring presentations on one of ten themes: Peace, Appreciation, Inner Strength, Self-awareness, Clarity, Understanding, Dignity, Choice, Hope, and Contentment. The facilitated reflection time (hosted by Hippocrates' own Andy Roman), where we are all welcome to participate, makes the workshops engaging, inspiring, and fun.
Hippocrates accesses the PEP through The Prem Rawat Foundation (TPRF), which provides the course materials to organizations and volunteers free

of charge. Currently, the PEP is readily available to diverse populations in more than 70 countries and in over 30 languages. It appears in various settings, including community centers, youth groups, schools, adult education programs, veterans' groups, healthcare settings, senior centers, homeless shelters, drug rehabilitation facilities, and correctional facilities. This grassroots peace movement is truly universal in appeal!
Individuals or organizations can apply to TPRF for a free license to offer the course to interested groups. And by the way, the role of the facilitator requires no professional qualifications or affiliations. TPRF is available to provide any support needed to make the program successful for host organizations and participants. Let's bring peace and peace education to everyone!
Check out https://tprf.org/peace-educationprogram for further information. Alums, send your email address to hippocratespeaceeducationteam@gmail.com to receive your invitation and the Zoom link.
"Among all of the volunteer opportunities I researched, the Peace Education Program caught my attention because it doesn't involve religious or political matters, so it can reach a bigger audience. And for the incredible principle of helping people find the path to their own inner peace."

Cutting-edge insights from the experts
Modern Hunter-Gatherers Have Thriving Gut Microbiome, Compared with Californians
A Western lifestyle seems to diminish the diversity of gut microbes. The human gut is teeming with trillions of microbes, but most studies of this vast community have focused on people living in urban regions. Now, researchers have sequenced gut microbiomes from Hadza people — members of a hunter-gatherer society in northern Tanzania — and compared them with those from people in Nepal and California. The study has found not only that the Hadza tend to have more gut microorganisms than people in the other groups but that a Western lifestyle seems to diminish the diversity of gut populations.
Adjusting Your Body Clock May Stave Off Cancer
Research shows that disrupting the body’s circadian rhythm raises cancer risk, and resetting it may decrease that risk. For some time now, epidemiological studies of night-shift workers have linked disruptions in circadian rhythms to cancer and other diseases - much of the evidence concerned breast cancer and, to a lesser extent, prostate cancer. Duration of shift work made a difference—nurses who worked night shifts for up to 30 years were at moderately increased risk for breast cancer compared with those who did shorter stints, and those who worked such shifts for more than 30 years had the highest risk. In 2019 the World Health Organization reaffirmed and updated a research statement from the agency showing that shift work is a probable carcinogen.

Brain Waves Synchronize when People Interact
The minds of social species are strikingly resonant. Collective neuroscience, as some practitioners call it, is a rapidly growing field of research. An early, consistent finding is that when people converse or share an experience, their brain waves synchronize. Neurons in corresponding locations of the different brains fire simultaneously, creating matching patterns, like dancers moving together. Auditory and visual areas respond similarly to shape, sound, and movement. In contrast, higher-order brain areas seem to behave similarly during more challenging tasks, such as making meaning out of something seen or heard. The experience of “being on the same wavelength” as another person is real and visible in the brain’s activity.

Do Insects Feel Joy and Pain
Insects have surprisingly rich inner lives—a revelation with wide-ranging ethical implications. The conventional wisdom about insects has been that they are automatons— unthinking, unfeeling creatures whose behavior is entirely hardwired. But in the 1990s, researchers began making startling discoveries about insect minds. Bees, for example, can count, grasp concepts of sameness and difference, learn complex tasks by observing others, and know their own individual body dimensions, a capacity associated with consciousness in humans. They also appear to experience both pleasure and pain. Some species of wasps recognize their nest mates' faces and acquire impressive social skills. For example, they can infer the fighting strengths of other wasps relative to their own just by watching other wasps fight among themselves. Ants rescue nest mates buried under rubble, digging away only over trapped (and thus invisible) body parts, inferring the body dimension from those visible above the surface. Flies immersed in virtual reality display attention and awareness of the passing of time. Locusts can visually estimate rung distances when walking on a ladder and then plan their step width accordingly (even when the target is hidden from sight after the movement is initiated).

Why Primates (Including Humans) Love to Spin Ourselves around until We All Fall Down
The menagerie that twirls and twirls includes gorillas, bonobos, and, yes, us humans. Humans seek out altered mental states to lose their senses of self and time, says Marc Wittmann, a psychologist at the Institute for Frontier Areas of Psychology and Mental Health in Germany and author of the 2018 book Altered States of Consciousness: Experiences Out of Time and Self. “When we are present-oriented, without past and future rumination, we feel much better.”

Here’s Why AI May Be Extremely Dangerous—Whether It’s Conscious or Not
Artificial intelligence algorithms will soon reach a point of rapid self-improvement that threatens our ability to control them and poses a great potential risk to humanity. “The idea that this stuff could actually get smarter than people...I thought it was way off…Obviously, I no longer think that” Geoffrey Hinton, one of Google's top artificial intelligence scientists, also known as “the Godfather of AI,” said after he quit his job in April so that he could warn about the dangers of this technology. In a mid-May Senate hearing on the potential of AI, Sam Altman, the head of OpenAI, called regulation “crucial.”Once AI can improve itself, which may not be more than a few years away, and could, in fact, already be here now, we have no way of knowing what the AI will do or how we can control it. This is because superintelligent AI (which by definition can surpass humans in a broad range of activities) will—and this is what I worry about the most—be able to run circles around programmers and any other human by manipulating humans to do its will; it will also have the capacity to act in the virtual world through its electronic connections, and to act in the physical world through robot bodies.

Parrots Are Taking Over the World
Smart, adaptable, and loud parrots thrive in cities far outside their native ranges. “They're animals that are really social, and they live in cognitively complex social environments,” says Grace Smith-Vidaurre, a postdoctoral fellow at Rockefeller University and the University of Cincinnati, who studies the birds. “They're like humans in a lot of ways.” Parrots seem to have started establishing populations outside their native ranges more recently. Research published in the Journal of Zoology documents parrots breeding in the U.K. as early as 1855. But it wasn't until the 1960s that demand for pet parrots spiked. As more birds were released by or escaped from their owners, colonies started forming in cities worldwide.

How Wasted Food Turns into Huge Amounts of Greenhouse Gas
Here’s how food loss and waste threaten the planet at every stage, from harvest to consumption. For a study in Nature Food, Xunchang Fei of Singapore's Nanyang Technological University and his colleagues used 164 countries' food supply data from 2001 to 2017 to estimate emissions across 54 food commodities and four categories: cereals and pulses; meat and animal products; vegetables and fruits; and root and oil crops. Roughly a third of food is lost during harvest, storage, and transportation or is wasted by consumers. The team found this food was responsible for greenhouse gases equivalent to 9.3 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide—about half the global food system's total emissions—in 2017. Four countries (China, the U.S., India, and Brazil) contributed 44.3 percent, mainly owing to their dietary habits and large populations. Of the four food categories, meat and animal products were the sources of almost three-quarters of emissions that occurred during the supply-chain phase for food that was ultimately lost.

Love Love Love
By Brian Clement Ph.D., L.N.
Love of Life
There is a triune of love, and we will explore each of these to help you better understand how to navigate a life that brings inner and outer peace.
Self-Love
Love for others
59 | hippocrateswellness.org
Love of Life is the most basic and is hardly acknowledged by anyone.
As a matter of fact, we have slogans that are counter to this precious gift; “Life is a Struggle,” “All there is, is Death and Taxes,” Life is Difficult," etc. Would it not make good sense by the time we are children to find ways to appreciate the gift of life? Gratitude seems to be a precious commodity that few afford. People tend to express their needs and desires more than appreciation. What we embrace is lack rather than acknowledge what we have. This mindset is so pervasive that when people begin to speak positively, it is out of character and almost considered an enigma. Something that I developed 50 years ago was an effective method for myself and others in the pursuit of establishing foundational love. Each night before going to sleep, spend two to five minutes in a special notebook to include seven things you liked about your life and experience for that day. You can either write one or two words or one sentence, do not labor over it. Just allow this to be your last thought before retiring. At the end of the week, you will have forty-nine things you like about yourself; end of the month, two hundred, every quarter, 600; and at the end of the year, 2400. Without fail, this peaceful meditative practice establishes self-respect and love in a concrete way that, as time passes, cannot be shaken from your core being.
Self-Love has nothing to do with ego but conversely eradicates it.
Self-Love is like building a home out of blocks. As you affix one on top of another, you continue to heighten your ability to embrace and express more love. Once you have established your central value of inner peace, your ability to multiply internal and external love dramatically grows. At times we have all met a person that exudes a loving feeling. You cannot help to be contaminated by their outpouring of grace. This is the natural state of the human experience. Why, then, is it so rare that we meet individuals who live at this pinnacle of purpose? We have all been trained to embrace the burden of the past, which limits our ability to progress and expand. Recycling ineffective brokenness does not fuel a passionate heart. Fear dominates and squashes our ability to freely express our deepest feelings, which inevitably would be affirmative expression. An effective practice is to quietly repeat words similar to this: “I am a good person with contribution who has the capacity to heal myself.” By receiving the spirit of these words, you can weave those that resonate with your true feelings. Authenticity is essential when it comes to expanding your consciousness to respect yourself without hesitation. Self-love is an essential pillar in the triune of love and, without it, you cannot move through life with the necessary energy that abolishes self-degradation.
Love for others is unachievable unless you move through and develop the first two phases.
Healthy interpersonal relationships are hard to find since people lack the motivation to make people feel better when they feel poorly about themselves. Today’s commonplace, stepping on others to get to where you want to go seems to be the standard. Your aspiration should be raising others so that all of us can move forward with the human species gaining its foothold in the Eden we inherited. Holy texts throughout history have reflected upon this very subject, “Do onto others as you would do onto yourself,” “Reap what you sow,” and “Love Thy brother as thy self.” Ultimately, all great writings express that we are made in the image of God. When pondering this proposition, think of it as a conversation that you may have with who you imagine God is. Would you do less than give 100% of your honest and open self if you were actually having a conversation with God? Would there be shortcuts, lies, or dishonesty? If the answer is a resounding no, as it should be, then our image of self should always be afforded your maximum best, resulting in a balanced and effective outcome. Love appreciation, love of self, and love of others are the mountainous terrain that protects you from the dark forces and negative naysayers that represent the current human condition. When peace rains in your heart and soul due to the quiet and competent heart and mind that you have nourished, your humanity shines, your humility strengthens you, and your ability expeditiously grows.

I have a dream. Falling in Love!
By Antony Chatham
“ Your heart knows the direction, run in that way,” teaches the great Sufi Mystic, Rumi. He also advises us to be in love all the time: “Wherever you are, whatever you do, be in love.” This experience of being in love all the time is not just for the enlightened, but also for each of us -“ Only from the heart can you touch the sky.”
Love is Feeling Connected
While meditating on love, I realized: there is a dream I wish to bring into reality. In this dream, I awaken in the morning, and as I open my eyes, my partner is there. I greet her, saying, “Good morning, I love you!” and feel a deep soul connection. After completing my essential morning rituals, I embark on a tranquil walk, where I warmly greet the beautiful plants and trees that adorn the house or line my path. Silently, I express, “I love to see you all!”; connecting with them and acknowledging the abundant oxygen they graciously provide me. Whenever I encounter someone on the street, I smile and offer a heartfelt “good morning,” conveying my love through my tone. When I need to rest after the walk, I shower my body with gratitude and love, appreciating its ability to enable me to walk and relish the fresh air. As I connect with the exquisite lake and the meandering brook beside my path, my heart brims with gratitude. I also express my appreciation to the sun for its abundant energy and the sky for its breathtaking beauty, overwhelmed with gratitude towards God (Universe). Finally, I return home with hope, eager to begin a productive and meaningful day, carrying a sense of connection with everything throughout the day. Alan Watts beautifully encapsulates this connection: “You and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.”
A Longing for Connection, a Feeling of Oneness
What I am describing encompasses an understanding of love as a profound yearning for connection—a sense of unity with the individuals and the world surrounding us. This understanding does indeed include our chemistry, sexuality, and romantic love. When we love our partner, it is not solely directed toward them but also toward ourselves. Intimacy in love involves both giving and receiving. Paradoxically, our joy and fulfillment are closely intertwined with the extent of happiness we bestow upon our partner. Thus, we perceive love as a connection that extends beyond the physical realm of touch. It is a longing to forge connections with “the other”; this encompasses our partner, our family, society, our country, all of humanity, the planet, and even the vastness of the Universe (Divinity).
Reality is One!
The experience of oneness is rooted in our reality. The Upanishads, the Sacred Books of India, convey this profound teaching through these Great Sayings: “Aham Brahmasmi” (I am Brahman, Divine) and “Ta Tvam Asi” (You are that). At the core of Advaita (non-duality) philosophy, deeply embedded in Indian thought, lies the understanding that we are all interconnected and that our perception of separation from the world around us is a myth. This message was delivered by Swami Vivekananda, who embarked on a journey from India and addressed the audience at the first World Parliament of Religions in 1893. He began his speech by addressing the listeners as “My sisters and brothers of America.” At that time, it was a bold and radical step for a foreign visitor from India to establish such a profound connection and speak with such confidence. Nevertheless, it was the essence of his philosophy that led him to make such a remarkable gesture.
63 | hippocrateswellness.org
God is Love
Love is at the core of the Christian faith. When St. John’s letter in the New Testament says, “God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16), he is summarizing the teaching of Jesus, which emphasizes love over the law, pointing out the love for God and the neighbor. Even though religions have divided the world in many ways, the Latin word ‘religare’ means binding or connecting; the word ‘religio’ means bond, indicating the connection between the Divine and the human. The often-quoted verses on love from St. Paul’s letter to the Corinthians reads: “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love never ends.” (1 Corinthians 13:4–8). It reinforces the experience of love as connecting.
Love is Stronger than Fear
Love is a profoundly positive emotion and experience, encompassing warmth, compassion, joy, peace, and the forging of bonds and connections. On the other hand, fear represents a negative emotion and experience characterized by feelings of anxiety, insecurity, anger, guilt, sadness, and disconnection. Love instills confidence and a sense of safety, whereas fear tends to erode our confidence, leaving us feeling vulnerable and susceptible to harm.
When we are motivated by love in our endeavors, we are filled with energy and enthusiasm. Love becomes a driving force that propels us forward. Conversely, when we act out of fear, our energy diminishes, and we become drained.
This is precisely why a parenting approach rooted in love and logic tends to be effective, while fear-based tactics do not yield long-term success. Similarly, religious faith based on love is meaningful; fear-mongering, judgmental faith is damaging. Love possesses a remarkable strength that surpasses fear in its ability to inspire, nurture, and guide.
