Global Human Development, Inc.    ....quietly changing people's lives is a 501(c)3 non-profit training and educational research organization, doing pioneering work by applying The Continuum Theory™, a breakthrough in human development, to deliver lasting change to the public and key sectors of society by transforming and inspiring them to reach their potential and fulfil their purpose.


Love is Nourishment...like air, food, and water.©
Consequently, "You Are Born To Be Loved." 
"I felt incredibly humbled, honored, and continually inspired as well as still feeling an awesome responsibility for teaching the insights into the true nature of “What Love Is”. I have been also been given the tools for its implications and applications! It was the #1 search phrase on Google in 2014 – and as I would discover the fundamental missing piece of individual, relationship and organizational thriving." S. Deutsch, President, GHD, Inc.

Dr. Ivel De Freitas, MD calls me ‘The Father of the Science of Love’ - having theorized LOVE AS NOURISHMENT and therefore UNCONDITIONAL BEHAVIOR as the only avenue toward having a positive 'inner' relationship with Self and Others. This theory, postulated 30+ years ago, has now been confirmed by the scientific research of Fredrickson, Luby, Deutsch's clinical trial, as well cancer survival rates and so forth. 
In order to advance science we know that the most important thing we must do is ask the right questions. Here are just a few that were asked by Deutsch decades ago on his way to his revelation of what love is. After extensively researching these questions it turned out no one had asked them:
  • Why do we experience such pain and suffering when we are deprived of love?
  • Why do we thrive when we receive love?
  • Can we give and receive something invisible, intangible?
  • Would our reaction to both the deprivation and abundance of love be so visceral, on such a deep cellular level, if it was merely a mental event, or a hallucination?
Without knowing the answers to these questions, and others equally important, there was no way of ascertaining what love is. And without knowing what love is, we could never get enough love or give enough love to be happy, healthy, and thrive. Hungry, Starved, Malnourished from a lack of sufficient love has been the human condition. Depressed, addicted, tired, medicated, anxious - lonely and longing - have been the physical/mental manifestations. UNTIL THIS DISCOVERY.

GHD, Inc. Delivers Lasting Transformation Toward SELF-ACTUALIZING, Potentializing And Fulfilling Your Purpose!

The biggest obstacle is the preconceived notion that we know what love is. When most of us think of love, our thoughts center on romance.

The truth is that love is NOT just a romantic notion. Stefan Deutsch in formulating The Continuum Theory™ shatters that narrow belief. How? By using logic and experiential observation, Deutsch uncovered that love is exactly like air, food and water. Love is, in fact, an essential nourishment. Infants receive nurturing nourishment as a result of the parenting-mothering instinct. Our need for this nurturing nourishment persists throughout life and the fact that after infancy it is only available conditionally, inconsistently, is tragic.

The Continuum Theory of Human Development with its centerpiece concept of love as nourishment, which Stefan Deutsch postulated and developed over three decades ago, has finally been studied by research and the results prove that his theory is correct. The Continuum Theory creates a paradigm shift that promises the eminent revolution in the development of human potential, richer relationships, better health, longevity, and productivity.

How will GHD, Inc. deliver on this promise?

GHD, Inc. is educating the public, the media and academia through its programs, workshops, webinars, ”LOVE DECODED” series of books, blogs, symposiums, conferences and videos. “De-Coded Love” helps us understand what love is and how to give it and acquire it unconditionally. It also enables individuals to obtain this essential nourishment through a formidable tool set of four sequential and integrated developmental concepts.

As a result of our programs individuals no longer have to be satisfied with a ‘happy meal’ that tastes good in the moment but leaves them ‘malnourished’ in the long term. Our theory debunks the myth that others will like us more if we look better, attain success, fame, be smarter, or be less assertive. All these approaches to attain love are poor substitutes for self-sufficiency and fall short of having a real meal. We can learn self-sufficiency and feed ourselves real love that prevents stress, illness, poor performance and accepting unloving behavior in relationships. THDC through its work, promises lasting change that prepares you to flourish in all areas.

GHD, Inc. is reaching into the human ‘heart’, using the Science of Love. Stefan Deutsch 'cracked the code', and with it a promise of revolutionary advances in physical and emotional well-being, and the full development of individual potential. Creativity, cooperation, productivity, rich relationships and happiness are the results.

Having created the programs needed to 're-educate' people GHD, Inc.  has embarked on doing presentations, workshops, webinars, videos and formulated a series of powerful and effective pilot programs which are ready to be implemented through the support of visionary individuals, businesses and foundations.

Find the sectors that are relevant to your interests, needs and learn more. Start to apply this breakthrough theory to your life, family, work, workplace and see transformational results. We are here to guide and support you in that process.
