Description:

Dawson Church author of Genie in Your Genes shares with us the exciting new science that is illuminating our human potential. The new field of epigenetics is changing the way we see our ability to heal ourselves. He focuses on a class of genes called Immediate Early Genes or IEGs. These genes turn on within a few seconds of a stimulus. They can be triggered by thoughts, events or emotions. Many IEGs are regulatory genes that turn on other genes that affect specific aspects of our immune system, such as the production of white blood cells that destroy attacking bacteria and viruses. Epigenetics thus influences our health every day. He also describes the tools in the new field of energy psychology that can help us achieve that awareness that can help us create radiant health. We have known for years that stress breaks down our bodies and our health. Epigenetics tells us that conscious awareness of our thoughts and emotions can help us create vibrant health!
