GAUDEAMUS IGITUR, PEREANT DOLORES
The Latin slogan "GAUDEAMUS IGITUR, PEREANT DOLORES" translates to English as "So, let us rejoice, let the sorrows perish." The choice of this Latin slogan reflects the PHO Academy's mission and philosophy. It embodies the essence of celebrating life and finding joy while acknowledging the impermanence and transience of sorrows and hardships.
The phrase "let us rejoice" signifies a call to embrace positivity, gratitude, and the pursuit of well-being. It encourages individuals to find joy in their journey toward holistic health and personal growth. On the other hand, "let the sorrows perish" conveys the Academy's commitment to addressing and overcoming challenges. It emphasizes the importance of resilience, healing, and letting go of negative emotions or experiences that hinder well-being.
Together, the slogan encapsulates the Academy's belief in the transformative power of embracing joy and resilience on the path toward holistic health and overall well-being. It serves as a reminder for individuals to celebrate life's moments, cultivate positivity, and let go of sorrows to create a fulfilling and meaningful existence.
