The Epigenetics of Thought

“I AM...

THEREFORE

I THINK”

René Descartes, the French philosopher, who’s famous statement,“ I think, therefore I AM,” was actually assuming that our thoughts, attitudes, personalities and specifically our mind are separate and have zero influence over our body.

When we look at his statement today, we realize that Descartes had his belief backwards. It is now widely accepted that the body and mind are fully integrated. A new study published in Cancer, by a Canadian group, proposes that our mental state has measurable physical influences on our entire being, down to the very essence of our DNA.
