2006 Outlook:
VISION
While pursuing the Foundation’s mission of integrating proven natural healing practices with modern medicine in a complementary way to augment treatment for global health issues, work will continue with the research-based programs and humanitarian events initiated in 2005.
The Foundation will also begin a dedicated focus on children’s health and wellness – arguably the most important step for creating long-term health and establishing building blocks upon which society can flourish.
Many children have a genetic disposition to certain diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, asthma, obesity and others. When a child is experiencing disease, it not only affects the child themselves, but also the family and society as a whole. A sick child can suffer emotional stresses that dramatically effect their development – view of life and dreams for the future. The family is not only devastated by concern, but can be wiped out financially.
If you have never had problems breathing, it may be difficult to imagine the paralyzing fear of being unable to catch a breath. It becomes all-consuming. As a result of labored breathing, the child’s activities must be restricted and many are unable to experience the carefree growing up of a “normal” childhood. The family fears the toll the disease takes on the child, as well bearing an economic burden for treatment. Society bears the costs in terms of insurance.
Another example is a child with a genetic predisposition to diabetes. Different than the active struggle of asthma, but also difficult because the child must helplessly witness the affects the disease has on their parent’s life. They are aware of the struggle resulting from the disease, but have little to ensure they won’t develop the disease themselves in the future. The parents also watch the clock tick with apprehension, while the health costs of diabetes and other disease loom large for society.
Childhood disease is not the only issue facing the younger generation. There is a pressing need for a general improvement in children’s lives. The Foundation has tools which promote general health awareness, increase academic achievement, help with focus and concentration, as well as foster self-confidence. It is time to “get these tools to the people.” As kids begin to lead healthier and more balanced lives, the benefits to them, their families and society are enormous.
To this end, there are a host of children’s programs to be unveiled this year which are family-based – with parents in partnership. Monthly seminars will be offered – free to the public – on children’s diseases as well as general health issues. The seminars are designed for children and their families to participate in together. The emphasis will be on education, natural foods and recipes, as well as low-impact meditative type movement and internal organ exercises. Providing tools to be applied early in life will lessen or eliminate the need to deal with health issues in the future.
