With the current world population of 7.2 billion projected to increase by 1 billion over the next 12 years and reach 9.6 billion by 2050, according to a United Nations report launched recently.....
Tom and the Heart Wave Adventure Team feels that if we work together we can be part of the solution to solving the problems our species faces; an increase in deadly Inflammatory Diseases, Obesity, Depression, and addictive drug use, War, Poverty, Despair, the abuse of Mother Nature, the threat of nuclear war and Fear.
A Radical Paradigm Shift
Tom believes this will only occur when mankind creates a paradigm shift away from a failing “survival of the fittest” mentality , a mentality that embraces a situation in which only the strongest people or things continue to live or be successful, while the others die or fail to a “survival of the most loving” mentality a mentality that embraces the Heart Intelligence software package within all of us that recognizes the wholeness of life and provides the intuitive guidance to help support the survival of all life forms .
“Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion
to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
- Albert Einstein
It’s a radical shift from its only about me to it’s about WE and its happening now!
Tom believes that living a long, healthy and rewarding life is within reach for all of us when we tap into our Heart Intelligence, take greater responsibility across the web of life and practice evidence based wellness assisted by doctors that practice functional medicine.
Competitive Events
Similar to Felipe Tom loves everything to do with the ocean, he did some competitive Surfing in his early years but he loved free surfing and exploration better and doing wild things like setting the World Surfboard Speed Record around the year 2002 with a very futuristic surfboard!
Challenges
Tom does love a Challenge like the one he took in 2013 to train with Felipe when Felipe decided to break a paddling record that he set 50 years prior in Lima Peru.
Do to his commitment to staying fit and following anti-aging practices and utilizing the knowledge of functional medicine at 67 years of age Tom became Felipe’s paddling partner competing in both Prone and SUP Paddling Contests in South America and Hawaii.
That seems pretty amazing but Felipe, Jeff and Tom feel the best years are yet to come.
