GLOBAL HUMAN DEVELOPMENT, Inc.
For more 35 years Global Human Development, Inc. – GHD, Inc. – was known as The Human Development Company. It was, and still is an ALL-VOLUNTEER non-profit, 501(c)3 educational, research organization. That is going to change in the near future when our Apps reach the public.
The focus of THDC/GHD, Inc. was and is, to study how both The Continuum Theory of Human Development, and The Theory of Love that emerged from it, affect the mental, emotional, and physical health of individuals, families, groups, and organizations when applied to their everyday lives and relationships. The results of this pioneering theory have been used in 35 years of clinical work, an 18-month long, IRB aproved clinical trial at Danbury Hopital, CT. teaching physicians, nurses and reisdent, and finally presented to and accepted by both the American Medical Association and the American Psychological Associatiomore enthusiastically!
Many are looking for worthwhile personal development goals as the ultimate answer to happiness and health!
Many will go and purchase the latest books, listen to podcasts hoping something they are teaching will make them happy.
And often the authors promise their readers just such a 'transformation', enlightenment, and HAPPINESS.
And we did not forget about Respect, Support, Generosity, Affection, plus exercise and eating healthy, and so forth.
Unconditionality™ – Living and Loving, Self and Others Unconditionally –
is the missing foundation that makes learning all other worthwhile behaviors possible.
WHY???
Without love we are like hungry children attending school and having a hard time learning. Which is why we feed them before or at school. For adults to achieve the tranformative behaviors they aspire to learn and practice, no matter how important they may seem, without nourishing love, is difficult to achieve, Human beings will lack the emotional energy and capacity to succeed.
The Theory of Love states that “Love is Nourishment like Air, Food, and Water.” Children are taught to be self-sufficient with air, food, and water. Therefore, they must be taught to become self-sufficient with Love – otherwise they will lack one of the most essential nourishment needed to energize their efforts and attempts at personal growth, relationships, or reaching personal health and career goals. Love from others is wonderful, but as we learn early in life, we can't always count on others, even parents - most people love conditionally - so we need to learn to count on ourselves for Love.
