Ubuntu: meaning ‘humanity’ in Zulu, describes a set of closely related South African-origin value systems that emphasize the interconnectedness of individuals with their surrounding societal and physical worlds. “Ubuntu” is sometimes translated as “I am because we are”. In Xhosa, the latter term is used, but is often meant in a more philosophical sense to mean “the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity”.
Ubuntu encompasses the interdependence of humans on one another and the acknowledgment of one’s responsibility to their fellow humans and the world around them. It is a philosophy that supports collectivism over individualism.

According to experts, strength training after age 50 should prioritize consistency, joint health, and recovery over peak performance to protect mobility and longevity. Nine key rules for training in midlife include using compound exercises, lifting lighter weights for more reps, challenging yourself appropriately, embracing full-body workouts, prioritizing large muscle groups, applying progressive overload, finding low-impact cardio, prioritizing recovery, and putting enjoyment first.

As time goes by you need a savvier approach to training than you did in your 20s, says Harry Bullmore, who gets advice from a top fitness coach on how to do that

I have increased their pain meds and made them comfortable. Spend time with your loved one, they don’t have long now, we have done all we can, nature will take it’s course…
Dr, I don’t know what to say?
It’s a difficult time for all to find the right words but start somewhere and say something, the Hawaiian tradition of reconciliation and healing is always a good way to begin…
I am Sorry
Please forgive me
Thank you
and I love you.

Cultural Wisdom on Screen
Writers and medical advisors wove in practices like Ho'oponopono, a Hawaiian tradition of reconciliation, grounding the drama in diverse forms of truth-telling.

4 Step Ho'oponopono Healing
Step 1: Repentance – I'M SORRY.
Step 2: Ask Forgiveness – PLEASE FORGIVE ME.
Step 3: Gratitude – THANK YOU.
Step 4: Love – I LOVE YOU.

Ho'oponopono : An Ancient Hawaiian Healing Technique
| by Merging ...
Hoʻoponopono is an ancient Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness that translates to "to make right". Its core theory is the concept of 100% responsibility, where a person takes ownership of everything that occurs in their reality, even seemingly external events, as stemming from their own internal thoughts and memories. Through a process of mental cleansing, often using the mantra "I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you," one seeks to clear negativity, correct errors, restore harmony, and transform personal and collective consciousness.

Key Principles of Hoʻoponopono
100% Responsibility: The central idea is that everything in your life is a projection of your own inner world, and therefore, you are fully responsible for its manifestation.

Mental Cleansing: The practice focuses on purifying the mind, clearing out negative thoughts, memories, and limiting beliefs that contribute to conflict and disharmony.

Forgiveness and Gratitude: The mantra "I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you" is used to express remorse for past actions, ask for forgiveness, give thanks for wisdom gained, and send love, fostering a space for healing.

Unity and Interconnectedness: The practice is rooted in the belief that all beings are connected, and healing oneself helps heal others and the collective consciousness.

How It Works
1. Acknowledge Responsibility: You begin by taking complete responsibility for the situation at hand, understanding your own contribution to it.

2. Chant the Mantra: You repeat the four phrases—"I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you"—either internally or aloud.

3. Focus on Inner Cleansing: The intention is to clear internal blockages and negative patterns within yourself rather than to try and change another person.

4. Release and Transform: The positive vibrations of the mantra are believed to cleanse negative energy, release emotional pain, and transform it into healing light.

Benefits
Personal Healing: Hoʻoponopono helps release negative emotions, alleviate guilt, and transform past hurts into a more positive state of mind.
Conflict Resolution: By taking responsibility, the practitioner can resolve conflicts by changing their own energetic contribution to the situation.
Spiritual and Collective Impact: By cleansing one's own mind, the practice is believed to contribute to the cleansing of the collective consciousness, fostering greater harmony.

As South Africans we don’t just roll over for anything or anyone, that is not who we are.
- “Dr” Rassie Erasmus

As South African Heathcare Workers, that is not what we do, it is not how we are built or trained.






“Ubuntu means “I am, because you are”. In fact, the word ubuntu is just part of the Zulu phrase “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu”, which literally means that a person is a person through other people.

Ubuntu has its roots in humanist African philosophy, where the idea of community is one of the building blocks of society.
