Health: The Great Illusion of Modern Man
Ladies and gentlemen, let's pause for a moment. What do we truly mean by health? An immaculate medical report? A body that doesn't creak? Nonsense. Health is a Copernican revolution that our sick society has completely erased.
Hippocrates, that old sage who today would be labeled as a fourth-rate guru, said that health is born from harmony with nature. And us? We've become deranged machines, disconnected cyborgs, creatures that devour anxiolytics like candy and feed on stress as if it were oxygen.
Let's face it: modern medicine has become an industry. A gigantic apparatus that profits more from treating symptoms than from healing causes. Sounds like heresy? Look at the numbers. Pharmaceutical companies aren't interested in curing you; they're interested in keeping you in a state of perpetual "managed illness".
But the real revolution, ladies and gentlemen, begins within you. You don't need a doctorate to understand that eating isn't about filling your stomach, but nourishing your organism. Sleeping isn't about flipping a switch, but recharging complex biological batteries. Moving isn't about taking a few steps, but reactivating deep regeneration mechanisms.
Those who talk about holistic health today are mocked, classified as "alternative" or worse. Yet it's the only truth that matters. We are not automobiles to be repaired, but living ecosystems that need balance. Air, light, movement, relationships: these are the true therapies that no pill could ever replicate.
Our most serious illnesses? They're in the soul. Liquid loneliness, chronic stress, toxic relationships. Silent poisons that nest in our emotional circuits, long before they reach our organs. Depression isn't a disease; it's a cry of rebellion from our deepest being against a system that wants us anesthetized.
Look around. How many of you are truly living? How many merely exist, dragging themselves between commitments, devouring fast meals, sleeping poorly, absorbing stress like whiplash?
Health, dear ladies and gentlemen, is a personal revolution. It begins when you decide to listen to yourself, to respect yourself, to consciously choose. It's not a luxurious option; it's a primary duty to yourself.
You don't need to be a yogi or a holy man. You need to be human. Beings who recognize the complexity of their organism. Who know that every breath, every movement, every bite is a therapeutic act.
Wake up from the slumber of delegation. Your health is not in the hands of any doctor, but in yours. You are the first, true hospital. You are the first, true medicine.
Good awakening, ladies and gentlemen.
