The Story
"We are everywhere."
We are not human beings in search of a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings carrying the light within us.
After losing his parents, Gilbert Martina worried that his father's collective wisdom from his CuraƧao ancestors and his mother's spiritual guidance were forever lost. Instead, he received clear instructions: he needed to carry their legacy to the world.
Healthy Minds, Healthy Nation is a deeply personal portrait of one man's search for solace while maintaining his health and moral integrity. It is a homecoming for everyone who feels they do not fit in, who longs to find true acceptance and understanding.
Healthy Minds, Healthy Nations introduces transcendental meditation and shamanism to transform your consciousness. It emphasizes the importance of self-reflection and personal growth, even in moments filled with physical pain and suffering. It encourages you to use your light to heal yourself--and to be a lightworker to change the world.
