Moral Health or Mental Health?

I am passionate about studying our dear philosopher Aristotle, who bravely flagged the idea of comprehensive respect as both the cure and the door for illness if not embraced because it creates a road of resentment and perpetually unresolved issues. Respect is the best we can do for our health and mental health, although it is undervalued!
In his first book, Rhetoric, Aristotle could not make more sense of the misinformation present in the mentalities around 2500 years ago, and it is still so valid and contemporary! I believe that many people suffer in silence when they see violence around them because they know deep down that it is wrong and unfair. Aristotle, in his reflection about logical communication and justice, in a highly concise way, stated: “The arousing of prejudice, pity, anger, and similar emotions has nothing to do with the essential facts, but is merely a personal appeal to the man who is judging the case”.
The moral health dilemma is a precious thing to me and makes me even re-think the current connotation of “mental health” or “mental illness”. I am 100% rooted in this philosophy; I study it day and night and can’t seem tired of it! It relaxes me when I read or think about it. It is my home! It feels to me that the public might be made to put their heads in the sand and imagine that actions, including words and emotions, are not powerful enough to generate any emotional illness when, in fact, these are highly intertwined in our bio-psycho-social development and very much a reflection of physics. A tree cannot sustain itself if the roots aren’t healthy, right?
Therefore, it is not only about saying the correct things but about our communication becoming empowered by a genuine and unconditional love intention. Possibly, that would even end the constructs of “mental illness”, and maybe ‘Moral Health’ or ‘Moral Illness’ would make a better term. I believe (from my years of research) that the need to be loving is more entrenched in our biochemistry and epigenetics than we can remember. This could be the meaning used or one of them in the future!
I feel that I am not in this profession to only comply with current scientific findings; I am a clinical psychologist to confront biased social paradigms and less impartial and inequitable loyalty systems. Hence, my interest in ancestral wisdom, which some seem to ignore, even in existing mental health systems, with their demeanour, decoy, and one-sided policies.
The Utopian Psychology Institute is determined to facilitate and support the essential recognition from all world citizens concerning ethics & general health. In my view, these two are one element because, without love, the mind and body can become quite debilitated. We offer rehabilitation protocols through our eclectic psychotherapy assessment and treatments. Love is our essence. Please follow our blog for more refreshing and down-to-earth content.
