‘Jealousy of people is among the many things that come along with success and wealth. And it is by far the most potent threat as it could turn even a dear friend into a deadly enemy. And when that enemy continues to pose as a friend, enjoying proximity to you, (s)he becomes a Hitashatru.’

Abram Hoffer, MD, Ph.D. (1917-2009), a founder of Orthomolecular Medicine was a world-renowned Canadian doctor and biochemist that treated over five thousand patients with mental disorders (including schizophrenia, drug/alcohol addiction, and psychosis) through better nutrition, micronutrients, and megavitamin therapy. Dr. Abram Hoffer, a pioneer of holistic nutritional/vitamin therapy, died in May 2009 at the age of 91. For over 50 years, Dr. Abram Hoffer personally took 4,500 mg (4.5 grams) of Niacin (Vitamin B-3) along with other supplements. Dr. Abram Hoffer was a prolific researcher and writer, wrote over 30 books and 600 peer-reviewed medical journal articles (most of which were ignored by mainstream medicine), and was productive until 2 weeks prior to his death (age 91).

Chronic stress can affect every system in the body. Let’s talk about how to lower cortisol and relieve stress.

We’ve been told that our environment is dangerous, which causes a lot of stress and anxiety. But, while our environment may be dangerous, it’s not as dangerous as many are led to believe—and it’s not healthy to keep your attention on this negativity.

It’s vital to change your viewpoint on your environment and see it in a positive light, as well as filter out some of the negativity you’re exposed to.

Chronic stress can potentially lead to various health issues, including:
• A weak microbiome and more pathogenic bacteria
• A poor immune system
• Inflammation
• Fertility problems
• High insulin levels
• High triglycerides and LDL and low HDL
• Poor detoxification
• Slow digestion
• Poor absorption of vitamins and minerals (including vitamin D)
• Tightened fascia
• Cognitive problems
• The activation of bad genes and suppression of good genes

Two of the best ways to deal with stress and cortisol:
1. Change the viewpoint of your environment and filter out various threats of danger
• Get space in nature
• Connect with your environment

2. Physically flush out accumulated adrenaline and cortisol
• Exercise
• Do physical work

You can’t avoid stress. So, you need to understand how to deal with stress naturally. Today, we’re going to cover a new way to relieve stress that has nothing to do with sleep, diet, or exercise.

Oxytocin is a hormone typically associated with reproduction. But, recently, I learned it’s also involved in countering stress.

Oxytocin is actually the most important hormone in counteracting cortisol and the fight or flight mechanism, and it’s a major hormone involved in regulating anxiety and stress. Oxytocin is also involved in social biology and helps prevents atrophy of the hippocampus.

The best ways to trigger oxytocin and reduce stress:
• Bonding with people and pets
• Volunteering
• Donating
• Sharing
• Storytelling
• Hugging

This goes beyond diet and exercise. It’s clear that helping others is something you can do to increase oxytocin and manage stress.

But a few other factors are also at play. Vitamin C, magnesium, and cholesterol support healthy oxytocin levels, and estrogen increases the receptor for oxytocin. Check out my other videos to learn more about the best diet for stress and how to reduce stress naturally.

The story of the relationship between Sigmund Freud and his American nephew, Edward Bernays. Bernays invented the public relations profession in the 1920s and was the first person to take Freud’s ideas to manipulate the masses. He showed American corporations how they could make people want things they didn’t need by systematically linking mass-produced goods to their unconscious desires.

Bernays was one of the main architects of the modern techniques of mass-consumer persuasion, using every trick in the book, from celebrity endorsement and outrageous PR stunts, to eroticising the motorcar.

This episode explores how those in power in post-war America used Freud’s ideas about the unconscious mind to try and control the masses. Politicians and planners came to believe Freud’s underlying premise – that deep within all human beings were dangerous and irrational desires and fears. They were convinced that it was the unleashing of these instincts that had led to the barbarism of Nazi Germany. To stop it ever happening again they set out to find ways to control this hidden enemy within the human mind. Sigmund Freud’s daughter, Anna, and his nephew, Edward Bernays, provided the centrepiece philosophy. The US government, big business, and the CIA used their ideas to develop techniques to manage and control the minds of the American people. But this was not a cynical exercise in manipulation. Those in power believed that the only way to make democracy work and create a stable society was to repress the savage barbarism that lurked just under the surface of normal American life.

In the 1960s, a radical group of psychotherapists challenged the influence of Freudian ideas in America. They were inspired by the ideas of Wilhelm Reich, a pupil of, who had turned against him and was hated by the Freud family. He believed that the inner self did not need to be repressed and controlled. It should be encouraged to express itself.

Out of this came a political movement that sought to create new beings free of the psychological conformity that had been implanted in people’s minds by business and politics.

This programme shows how this rapidly developed in America through self-help movements like Werber Erhard’s Erhard Seminar Training – into the irresistible rise of the expressive self: the Me Generation.

But the American corporations soon realised that this new self was not a threat but their greatest opportunity. It was in their interest to encourage people to feel they were unique individuals and then sell them ways to express that individuality. To do this they turned to techniques developed by Freudian psychoanalysts to read the inner desires of the new self.

This episode explains how politicians on the left, in both Britain and America, turned to the techniques developed by business to read and fulfil the inner desires of the self.

Both New Labour, under Tony Blair, and the Democrats, led by Bill Clinton, used the focus group, which had been invented by psychoanalysts, in order to regain power. They set out to mould their policies to people’s inner desires and feelings, just as capitalism had learnt to do with products.

Out of this grew a new culture of public relations and marketing in politics, business and journalism. One of its stars in Britain was Matthew Freud who followed in the footsteps of his relation, Edward Bernays, the inventor of public relations in the 1920s.

The politicians believed they were creating a new and better form of democracy, one that truly responded to the inner feelings of individual. But what they didn’t realise was that the aim of those who had originally created these techniques had not been to liberate the people but to develop a new way of controlling them.
