The Unconscious Message: It's time to Listen to Yourself with Honesty

Look at anxiety, sadness, obsessions, not as problems but as solutions: our body is communicating in a language we don't know. Learn that LANGUAGE.

It's not made of words and rationality, but emotions, images, instincts, spirituality. Neurosciences tell us 90% of brain is about unconscious and instinctual processes. We need to go back to roots, childhood, to a wrong and dysfunctional imprinting, so We didn't develop a solid, harmonious, healthy identity.

You have to dedicate time, every day, listening to yourself, in silence, connecting to your deep mind. Those intrusive and worrying thoughts will reveal to you a HEALING message.

One european on Two is suffering of Stress

Depression (or Existential Crisis) is a phenomenon ignored by Media. While decades ago It was a rare pathology.. since 2020 It's the first cause of human disability in Western countries (source WHO). In Italy for example about 20% of people use psychiatric drugs (source AIFA 2023).

Let's see the main reasons behind this problem:

1) We're too complicated and egocentric, our brain is too complicated (and the Society too); recent neuroscientific studies tell us that the higher is the Intelligence Quotient (IQ) the higher is the possibility to develop psychopathologies. Also We live in survival mode and extreme competition (a consequence of thousands of years of war and suffering). We are misanthropist, rather than philanthropists. Love Your Neighbor was not a religious dogma but a mental posture: neuroscience today tells us that if we don't dedicate part of our day to gratitude (toward people, toward life) we become severely depressed.

2) We're too alone; in my generation you were never alone, you had a lot of brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, lot of children out there in the courtyard, solitude was rare, while today we're alone, we're the only child, near to 50% of children live without the father in their homes, we've no cousins anymore and the courtyard is empty. Technology is worsening the situation and we have substituted real relationships with low-quality virtual relationships.

3) We're too insecure; important and stable things like Family and Job are today precarious, can you count on your husband/wife tomorrow? and your job? Things are out of control, as children or parents we've no family certainties anymore, job is a roulette, you have it today you don't have it tomorrow, we transitioned from generations that had certainties under their feet to generations where the entire world changes and revolutionizes everyday; the insecurity of our "status" of child, parent, spouse, worker is today the dominant mantra.

4) We're too far from nature, for million years we developed inside nature, from tribal societies to agricultural societies (only one century ago european population lived mainly in the countryside) we've always been living fully immersed into the wild nature; so for the first time we're making an experiment (it can seems normal to you, but it's not) we're living inside grey and unhealthy cities; I'm very sure that living far from our original and natural habitat can be very toxic, without nature there is no awakening, our instinctual energies are not activated, our identity is lost, our biological and inner impulses vanish, it's like we decided to walk away from the forest to live inside a mortiferous glass ampoule.. our modern artificial cities!

Modernity and The Veneration of Psychology (and The Manipulation)

Psychology is the New Religion, killing any other Science or Philosophy.

The Three Steps of the Human Brain Decline: PSYCHOLOGISM (veneration of psychology at the expense of other disciplines) brings SUBJECTIVISM (my inner feeling is the objective and indisputable truth) brings NARCISSISM (egocentrism, alienation we suffer today).

50% of Jobs today are useless or replaceable by AI. Consumerism is based on the toxic or useless work (which we pay for) of domesticated people trained to buy useless objects. Soon 90% of jobs will be replaceable by AI. Consumerism (which oppresses women in particular) is based on the obsession of people, hamsters in the wheel of working (uselessly) to consume (uselessly).

Stop living for something; start living for SOMEONE.

What is Ethics?

Ethics are all those moral principles we create to survive ourselves.

The Fatherless Society

Some information about our young west democracies:

Father Absence (2025): at today in Italy like in Europe over 40% of kids live without the biological father at home. This is a violantion of the Natural Laws, International Law, The Italian Constitution, especially the Convention on the Rights of the Child (New York 1989) and the Co-Parenting (ART.18) that means the right to maintain a relationship with both parents, even after a Divorce.

Singles and Divorces (2025): in Europe 33% percent are single people (in 90s they were just 5%) more than people in a couple with kids (31%). About these last families 50% fail, involving over 500.000 kids every year: 15-20% of these kids will lose the father.

Thousands of world Statistics (but also common sense helps) allow to understand why most suicides, homicides, crimes, violence, bullying, mental diseases, use of drugs and alcohol, school and marriage failures, etc., are due to the father's absence.
It is shown that a child with no parents or with only one parent is 5-10 times more prone to such problems. Today's society reflects a society where father is absent, a moral and mind absence, which is often also physical.

Most relevant Philosophers, Historians and Scientists say the Lack of Father, the Lack of Healthy Male models, is the main cause of Society's Problems, moral and cultural problems, existential and instinctual problems. Fatherhood absence started one century ago:

World War I and II resulted in the deaths of 100 million soldiers, and 200 million disabled men (an example: PTSD. 50.000 USA soldier died in the Vietnam war, 60.000 committed suicide after returning).

The Industrial Revolution brought men to factories, mines, toxic or mortal environments, far from the family home, far from their natural functions of Father and Husband.
