A number of years ago I came across the work of Dr Bruce Lipton. Bruce has written two books –
- The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter, & Miracles, and
- Spontaneous Evolution: Our Positive Future and a Way to Get There From Here.
Dr Bruce Lipton was the first person I heard talk about Epigenetics. After I saw him present that night in Brisbane, I was a changed person.
You can listen to a brief free 9 minute podcast by Dr Bruce Lipton at the Hay House World Summit on Epigentics by clicking here.
If you would like to know more, you can also have a look at the following TedX Talk by Courtney Griffins – Epigenetics and the Influence of our Genes. In this 18.41min clip, Courtney discusses –
- Nature (DNA) versus nurture (the home environment)
- Studies and experiences relating to identical twins
- Epigenetics, nature and nurture
- What is Epigenetics? Epi (on to of) genetics (your genes)
- How epigenetic marks can be influenced by our environment (i.e. stress, multi-vitamins etc) and also from generation to generation, and
- How we can positively impact our genes by treating our epigenome kindly through positive lifestyle decisions.
