My recent studies
Since 2020, I have been dedicating my studies to trying to understand why we get sick. Our body speaks to us through symptoms, and we must decode these symptoms and understand why they occur. Our body tries to tell us where it is weak and what psycho-emotional trauma has created the destabilisation that causes the symptom we then call illness.
Another mission of mine today is to try to help young people carry out their life plans. To help them develop their character, their vocation and their destiny. Recent events in the news, with inexplicably violent acts by young people considered perfect, have frightened families. Added to this is the incredible increase in children with autism, ADHD and various forms of dyslexia.
Is it a trend? Exasperation? Genetics? We must face all this together with families, listen and learn to accept life’s vicissitudes as opportunities for growth, and not pursue the perfectionism that society would like to impose on us. This can also be done through support for parents.
