The way we perceive our environment and process reality from moment to moment changes the internal chemistry in our body. It’s like two identical computers (twins) downloading completely different software (apps), changing their functionality and operation.
If you spend your life being threatening (anxious) or constantly dwelling on a worst-case scenario, it will trigger a cascade of stress hormones in the body.
FACT
Your brain doesn’t know the difference between a focused thought or a real life experience. If you sit there worrying about an anxious/stressful outcome, your body will activate stress hormones as if the thought were real.
In fact, what we mentally rehearse every day and the emotional diet we feed our bodies every day determines our genetic expression.
Your mind is the commander and the cells are the soldiers. Cells wait for signals from the commander on how to behave. If the commander tells the cells to be strong, resilient and positive, they will do so; if the commander tells the cells to be afraid, anxious or worried, they will. Ultimately, this will determine cell fate and gene expression.
Conventional medicine has taught and programmed us to believe that healing is a concept achieved through external means.
When we receive a diagnosis from a doctor who in turn will prescribe us medications in one form or another, which we expect will make us feel better (cure).
This is a very limiting belief system about the body’s independent ability to heal from disease, creating a highly codependent relationship in an industry that doesn’t quite have our best interests in mind.
However, conventional medicine does have its place.
Modern medicine does an excellent job in the field of healing, but the point here is that the human body is a very powerful system for self-healing and epigenetics is the gateway through which you can reconnect with that mysterious power that lies within.
When it comes to chronic pain, conventional medicine usually offers only a temporary solution and struggles to understand or cure the underlying problem; especially when we look at the subtle forms of energy in the body.
FACTORS THAT OUR MODERN MEDICAL SYSTEMS NEED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY:
• Quantum physics (mind and body are connected)
• Epigenetics
• Emotional diet
• Stress levels (how this affects the body’s energy field)
• Meditation (deep breathing/pranayama)
• Herbal medicine
• Detoxification
• Fasting
• Energy healing
“It is common to associate doctors with healing, so unless the doctor tells us otherwise, we generally accept whatever fate is prescribed to us as factual.”
HOW MANY TIMES DOES THIS HAPPEN?
Mental health problems or conditions are often treated with antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications. These ‘healing’ substances tamper with the body’s natural production of chemicals, essentially just masking the underlying problem, which in turn creates a dependency-based relationship with the substance.
Bad emotional states are a reflection of a deeper problem that needs more attention than a pill-based medicine. You can’t put a band-aid on an infection and expect it to get better; it requires a little more attention from a different angle.
In the long term, prolonged use of medicinal sweets will cause a chemical imbalance, and the substance/pill will be associated with a false sense of happiness, which is often short-lived and can lead to further arguments later.
INTERESTING FACTS
• The body produces more than 100,000 proteins plus 40,000 regulatory proteins needed to make other proteins
• The human body has 37 trillion cells and 23,688 genes
• Genes work together systematically to make proteins
• Each gene can be expressed in thousands of different ways
• Proteins control our immune system, digest our food, heal our wounds and support/maintain the daily functioning of our body
• Humans express only about 1.5% of their DNA, with the remaining 98.5% classified as ‘junk DNA’. (It’s not actually junk, they just don’t know yet how all that DNA is used)
• The human body is a protein-making machine: muscle cells make actin and myosin; skin cells make collagen and elastin; immune cells make antibodies; thyroid cells make thyroxine; bone marrow cells make hemoglobin; pancreatic cells make enzymes such as protease, lipase and amylase
