An Open Letter to America and the World: 

The Dawn of a New Age of Consciousness

Dear Friends,

As 2025 begins, my wife Anna Maria and I, who have had the honor to guide Hippocrates Wellness, the world-renowned pioneering institute of lifestyle medicine and advanced healthcare, wish you a year filled with vitality, hope, and transformation. This new year marks what we believe to be the dawn of a new era of consciousness, one where we recognize that the best healthcare is “Self-Care,” utilizing the foremost advanced, Western, and global practices.

As demonstrated by recent events, many of us feel completely disillusioned with the Global “healthcare” system. But this disillusionment also presents an opportunity, a chance to shift all of our focus from managing symptoms to

preventing illness and empowering ourselves with the tools for extraordinary health and longevity.

For 70 years, Hippocrates Wellness in West Palm Beach, Florida, has pioneered progressive medicine, liberating hundreds of thousands of lives worldwide. As directors and licensed nutritionists, Anna Maria and I along with our renowned medical team, from Harvard, MIT, Cambridge, & Karolinska, continue to forge a proven direction in achieving an increased lifespan and a disease-free life. This is the new reality and future for a functioning global healthcare system.

Our 55-acre retreat in West Palm Beach, Florida, is a sanctuary for reversing illness and aging through advanced nutritional counseling, cutting edge technology, evidence-based therapies, luxuriating treatments, enlightening

lectures, and organic enzyme rich cuisine. This type of preventative medicine allows us not only to avoid illness, but to thrive physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Together, we can build a healthier, more hopeful future. Come join us and begin anew at Hippocrates Wellness, the epicenter of the modern health and wellness revolution.

Yours in health,

International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring – Accreditation and Credentialing offered by Hippocrates Wellness https://hippocratesstg.wpenginepowered.com/international-authority-for-professional-coaching-mentoring-accreditation-and-credentialing-offered-by-hippocrates-wellness/ https://hippocratesstg.wpenginepowered.com/international-authority-for-professional-coaching-mentoring-accreditation-and-credentialing-offered-by-hippocrates-wellness/#respond Tue, 03 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0000 https://hippocratesstg.wpenginepowered.com/international-authority-for-professional-coaching-mentoring-accreditation-and-credentialing-offered-by-hippocrates-wellness/ Accreditation demonstrates that a coach or mentor has the required professional knowledge and ability to apply that knowledge effectively in their practice

The post International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring – Accreditation and Credentialing offered by Hippocrates Wellness appeared first on Hippocrates Wellness.

]]>
If an individual wants to provide professional health coaching, or professional coaching in any field: business, wealth, couples or mentoring professionally, they should of course first become professionally trained as a professional coach or professional mentor. The quality of the training provided by the company makes a difference in the standard of the coach or mentor being well trained, but training and certification is not enough, as any company can actually certify you as a professional mentor or professional coach, regardless of the quality of their training or education. Upon completion of certified training a person will receive their certificate, so they are certified. Whereas accreditation or credentialing is completely different. A professional authority that provides accreditation, will audit the training that they support and have relationships between branches and levels of government, holding a different standard in the industry. A trained, certified coach too will have to pass a further assessment to gain an accreditation with an authority.

Accreditation demonstrates that a coach or mentor has the required professional knowledge and ability to apply that knowledge effectively in their practice.

But just having an accreditation with any accreditation body is not enough; an accreditation awarded by a professional body such as the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring (IAPC&M) can only be considered valid. Some organizations and institutions offer professional training and coach training education that meets the requirements of the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring (IAPC&M). Our Plant-Based Nutrition and Wellness Program is an IAPC&M accredited program, to make you an expert to teach and mentor others. Our Hippocrates Professional Coach Training Program is an IAPC&M accredited coach training program to train you in professional coaching. Both programs deliver education while meeting the standards required by the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring.Accreditation with the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring helps you to earn professional credentials that the general public can trust as a professional

Accreditation from the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring (IAPC&M) means:

Being the most trusted body for providing accreditation, the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring accredited coaches automatically gain a client’s confidence. In addition, an accreditation from IAPC&M conveys to the client that the mentor or coach has all the required skills, experience, and knowledge necessary to practice safely, effectively, and legally. 

Besides providing accreditation to coaches and mentors, the IAPC&M also provides different accreditation tools to constantly improve coaching skills, like continuing education, coaching tools, a webinar library, mentoring program, and coaching business classes. The approach adopted by the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring is a capability model instead of competency. This method is considered more effective in accrediting or credentialing.

This method differs from customary competency and provides a much more accurate method for determining a coach’s ability. In short, this method answers the question: Can the coach deliver what they say they can?

The Hippocrates Wellness Plant-Based Nutrition and Wellness Program teaches how to transition to an organic, raw and living food plant-based lifestyle, the science behind the living food, plant-based lifestyle with hundreds of delicious recipes, principles of health, attachment styles, neurobiology, emotional health, exercise, wellness protocols and so much more with regular video support calls. The Hippocrates Wellness Plant-Based Nutrition and Wellness Program is accredited with and therefore held to the standards of the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring.

The Hippocrates Professional Coach Training Program teaches how to coach someone professionally: listening skills, questioning skills, communication skills, capability, competency, and the knowledge to know the difference. With an emphasis on capability, this program will educate you on how to effectively coach clients. During this program, the coach will have coaching and wellness related video mentoring calls, and learn to apply the practices learned. The Hippocrates Professional Coach Training Program is accredited with and therefore held to the standards of the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring.

Once a certificate has been achieved via completion of one of our Hippocrates Wellness programs to gain accreditation from the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring, a coach needs to pass a capability assessment with the IAPC&M. This capability assessment is what discovers your uniqueness. It tests your capability through a trusted model that evaluates meaning while exploring your knowledge and ability to apply it. 

The International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring model aims to recognize the internal factors you bring along and your ability to apply those factors in complex situations. Overall, this method determines your capabilities and how well you could use those in client situations. 

At Hippocrates Wellness, when a student completes the Plant-Based Nutrition and Wellness program the IAPC&M Master Mentor instructor assesses them in a live assessment call to determine their capability as a Hippocrates Wellness Expert Mentor in action. When students in coach training complete the Hippocrates Professional Coach Training Program the IAPC&M Master Coach instructor assesses them in a live assessment call to determine their capability as a coach in action. Successful completion of either of the Hippocrates Wellness programs means a Hippocrates Wellness certification is accomplished. The student can then take their certificate and then move to passing their accreditation process and assessment with the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring.


Accreditation/Credentials Make the Difference in Skills & Standards

In the highly competitive field of online education and coach training and certificates, accreditation is important because this means an authority in coaching standards has approved this person. It also safeguards the public by knowing who has had professional training and who has not, and also to know the standard of the training has met professional criteria.

We offer two online education programs; our Plant-Based Nutrition and Wellness Program is an International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring accredited program, to make you an expert to teach and mentor others in plant-based nutrition and wellness protocols. Our Hippocrates Professional Coach Training Program is an International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring accredited program, to make you a professional coach, so you can coach others professionally. If both programs are taken and passed, this certifies the student as a Hippocrates Wellness Endorsed Coach with the credentials after their name HWC. For Hippocrates Wellness to support this Hippocrates Endorsed Coach this individual needs to be accredited by the International Authority for Professional Coaching & Mentoring, because this keeps our standards high in the capability of professionally helping others to achieve health, wellness and their potential in life.

“In the midst of worries about the global coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, it can be easy to slip into fears about the unknown and concerns about the suffering a global health crisis could cause. In fact, at times, it seems that fear surrounds us, fueled by the media and fed by our natural desires to protect our family and communities.”*

However, at Hippocrates we consider this a time of hope. As wellness advocates who have worked to strengthen the immunity of hundreds of thousands of guests over our 60+ years, we receive the open ears from those who are now willing to consider the message of what a strong immune system can do for the protection from preventable diseases.

“In fact, this is the ideal time to encourage family, friends and colleagues to focus on building a strong immune system through exercise, healthy nutrition, stress reduction, smoking cessation”, and all practices that are standard here at Hippocrates Wellness, “HHI”.

These are some of HHI’s recommended immune system boosting supplements:

  • LifeGive Phyto Vitamin C
  • LifeGive Vitamin D
  • Argentyne 23 (advanced bio-active silver)
  • Host Defense, (mushroom concentrate)
  • LifeGive CBD (hemp powder)
  • Natural Defense I.V. from our Liquivida partner

Additionally, we teach and encourage everyone as daily practice to stay clean and take daily saunas, which are the most effect way of rapidly fighting microbes.

Regarding incoming Hippocrates, program guests please be aware that we are doing our due diligence to pre-screen and qualify potential guests for any on-campus reservations. We have implemented temperature monitoring of incoming guests with additional protocols that adhere to CDC guidelines.

​Hippocrates Wellness is hosting award-winning filmmakers to document guests’ journeys on the Life Transformation Program. ​​​​Award-winning documentary filmmakers Mike “Zappy” Zapolin and (Game of Thrones) Andres Jiménez have spent the last 90 days on the campus of Hippocrates Wellness filming a feature-length documentary entitled Heal Thyself.

Mike “Zappy” Zapolin won the 2016 Amsterdam Film Festival’s Van Gogh Award for Best Director for his film “The Reality Of Truth” featuring Michelle Rodriguez, Deepak Chopra, and Joel Osteen. Andres Jiménez is an award-winning photographer working closely with Warner Brothers and Live Nation, who is responsible for creating much of the behind the scenes shooting for the “Game of Thrones,” and for Hans Zimmer’s live show.

“Heal Thyself” is a feature-length documentary film that follows several Hippocrates’ Life Transformation guests with various health issues as they journey through the three-week Life Transformation Program. The film showcases the treatments and lifestyle changes that collectively bring someone back to a place where the body can heal itself.

“We believe in observational reality and we wanted the audience to see people transforming into a state of optimal health.” –Mike “Zappy” Zapolin, Filmmaker.

For the first time, Hippocrates Wellness Co-Directors, Brian and Anna Maria Clement, allowed a film crew to follow people going through the entire transformational process of their experience on the Life Transformation Program.

“Zappy and Andres are passionate storytellers, who we’ve hosted here at Hippocrates at various times so they know the property and the people intimately, making them the perfect team to tell our unique story.” ​   –Brian Clement, Co-Director of Hippocrates Wellness.

The subjects featured have common health issues, including cancer, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, obesity, and damage from side effects related to taking pharmaceutical drugs.

“We’re excited to have documented both the human side of people going through this lifestyle program and the science behind what’s taking place here. I’m certain audiences will be blown away!”  –Andres Jiménez, Documentary Videographer.

The filmmaking pair will be editing this summer and expect to make a deal with top distributors to maximize the film’s exposure.

Hippocrates Wellness first began more than 60 years ago by visionary and humanitarian Ann Wigmore, who developed a simple concept first voiced by Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, nearly 2,500 years ago: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” The commitment to this inspired truth is embodied in Hippocrates Wellness, a non-profit organization established in 1980.

Hippocrates Wellness (HHI) flourishes within a lush, tropical 50-acre setting in West Palm Beach, Florida. Under the guidance of a knowledgeable and compassionate team, guests from all over the world benefit from health and nutritional counseling, non-invasive remedial and youth-enhancing therapies, state of the art spa services, inspiring talks on life principles and a tantalizing daily buffet of enzyme-rich, organic meals.

The goal of the institute is to assist people in taking responsibility for their lives and to help them internalize and actualize an existence free from premature aging, disease and needless pain.

The Hippocrates Life Transformation Program makes this a comfortable transition. The medical team and professional care servers support guests as they transform their lives in an encouraging environment, along with others who are recovering from similar challenges. Many guests visit the institute with various health conditions that range from chronic pain, auto-immune disorders and cancer. HHI alumni are people from all walks of life who have benefited from the institute’s blue­print.

The post Are You Winning The Battle Against Stress? appeared first on Hippocrates Wellness.

]]>
Chronic stress is defined as continuous (days or weeks) exposure to a stressful situation. According to the American Institute of stress:

  1. Seventy-five to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress-related complaints or disorders.
  2. Forty-three percent of all adults suffer adverse effects due to stress.
  3. Stress has been linked to all leading causes of death, including heart disease, cancer, lung ailments, cirrhosis of the liver, and suicide on the job.
  4. Nearly half of all American workers suffer from symptoms of burnout, a disabling consequence of stress.
  5. An estimated one million workers are absent on an average work day due to stress-related complaints. Stress is believed to be responsible for more than half of the 550 million work days lost annually due to absenteeism.

Stress can be any disruption in homeostasis (balance) of the body that can affect the adrenal function.

These include:

  1. Psychological stressors such as divorce or a death of a loved one.
  2. Physical stressors such as lack of sleep, trauma, or chronic disease.
  3. Nutritional stressors, such as lack of vitamin C, vitamin B5, etc.
  4. Environmental stressors such as pollution, heavy metals, or radiation.

People can have varying symptoms of stress or adrenal fatigue, including:

  1. General exhaustion
  2. Dizziness when moving from a sitting or lying position to a standing position.
  3. Difficulty concentrating
  4. Depression
  5. Difficulty sleeping.
  6. Chronic pain conditions (i.e. fibromyalgia)
  7. Inability to handle stressful situations.

When one needs to test the adrenal function for stress, saliva testing is ideal for accurate results.  One of the main reasons to use saliva is that it represents the free or bio-available fraction of hormones.  The saliva tests the cortisol and it is collected four times throughout the day. When collecting the saliva, be sure to rinse your mouth well to make sure no blood is collected from possible abrasions in the mouth.

Many people resort to the use of self-medicating with detrimental things such as alcohol to cope with stress.  This so-called remedy only stresses the adrenals more and makes the problem worse.  There are many helpful things people can do to reduce stress.  There are substances called adaptogens that modulate your response to stress or changes in the environment.

Nutrients which are supportive to help reduce stress:

  1. Lifegive adrena support – It has several adaptogens to support adrenal function.
  2. Adaptogen R3 (Premier Research Labs) – It has several adaptogens to support adrenal function.
  3. B-Complex – B vitamins are depleted with stress.
  4. Magnesium – Has a calming effect.
  5. Cordyceps mushroom – Helps to increase oxygen capacity and ATP production within muscle cells.
  6. Lifegive vitamin C – The adrenals hold the most vitamin C in the body.

Mind/body support for the adrenals:

  1. Meditation
  2. Visualization – Formation of mental-visual images to reduce stress
  3. Affirmations – The act of making statements to yourself to reduce stress
  4. Comedies (laughter)
  5. Deep breathing exercises
  6. Psychological therapy – Such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

To support the physical body practice the following:

  1. Being well hydrated (1/2 your body weight in fluid ounces per day),
  2. Proper diet (Raw and living foods)
  3. Adequate sleep (7 to 9 hours)
  4. Moderate physical exercise (aerobic and anaerobic)
  5. Yoga
  6. Acupuncture
  7. Making love

Try to identify your personal stressor and eliminate it, if possible.  Consider changes to your view of the stressor.  As you learn to identify the stressor, you can begin the see patterns and modify your behavior.  Remember, it you feel that you are having adrenal issues and cannot come to Hippocrates, please contact a caring, competent integrative medicine doctor.
