ARE YOU AGELESS?! -YOUR BODY'S REGENERATION SCHEDULE PART *3

Epigenetics literally means “above genetics” or “on top of genetics”, this is the study of how genes can be activated or deactivated by life experiences. It is well established that cells receive, interpret and adjust to environmental fluctuations, states microbiologist James Shapiro of the University of Chicago, Illinois. This means that our genetics can be turned on and off by our environment, our experience and how we perceive it. This includes what we eat, the stress we experience and the toxins we are exposed to.

Researchers have come to the conclusion that genes are not predetermined from the previous generation and simply passed on. This discovery shows that genes are being turned on and off all through life. For example, twins may have the genes that predispose them to a specific disease but only one will develop the disease and not the other. This is due to the one twin having unhealthy habits and perceiving his environment through his personal emotional filter. While the twin that did not develop the disease has healthier habits and experiences life from a more positive perspective.

So in simple terms, science has confirmed that the mind and emotions create our body. Dawson Church, Ph.D. the author of “The Genie In Your Genes” states, “What you are thinking, feeling, and believing is changing the genetic expression and chemical composition of your body on a moment-by-moment basis.” In this same book researchers also note that our consciousness can and will influence healing; “...Consciousness, acting through the body, can generate the molecules required for healing. Our brains are themselves generating drugs similar to those that our doctor is prescribing for us.” (pg 75&170)

Epigenetics is clearly confirming that we are much more powerful than we realize. If disease is nurtured by the mind, emotions and a negative perspective towards life then transforming the outlook on life can transform the disease. This step is the beginning of any healing process. This includes taking responsibility of your life and it’s results and making a commitment to change what must be changed. Many times people need tools to assist in changing belief systems, stuck emotions and/or an unsupportive life style.

When you know that you need this assistance you can choose from a diverse field of alternative healing modalities. Such as energy healing, inner child work, journal therapy, muscle testing, hypnotherapy and much much more. This is to name just a few. How would you choose what may work for you? Go with your gut instincts and find a practitioner or modality that you connect with. You know more than you think you know.
