THE NEW SCIENCE OF EPIGENETICS

The word Epigenetics was coined by C. H. Waddington, in 1942, He was a British biologist, geneticist and philosopher who laid the foundation for system biology.

“Epi“ implies traits that are above, in addition to, or on top of the cell membrane. “Genetics,” pertains to the nucleus, the control center, which is found inside of the living organism or cell.

It was once thought that we were helpless victims of our genetics and our fate was sealed. However, the latest breakthrough research in cell biology and quantum physics shows that our genes and DNA are influenced by signals from outside the cell membrane, including the energetic messages emanating from our perception, environment, positive and negative thoughts as well as our biological senses. Each experience we have triggers genetic changes in our cells. These influences on gene and DNA expression are known as Epigenetics.

The new Science of Epigenetics rewrites the rules of disease, heredity and Well-Being.

DNA READS THE WORLD WE LIVE IN

The signals that the DNA receives from our perception and environment, directly effects the genetic expression of the DNA and the quality of our lives. They read and regulate genetic expression or suppression in the form of functional instructions to all our cells, while keeping the original DNA sequence intact. These vibrational signals or Epigenetic Influences are perceived from the world we live in and encompass our thoughts, beliefs, culture, environment, speech, the food we eat, the air we breathe and the data received from all of our senses.
