“Epigenetics is “the study of heritable changes in gene activity that are not caused by changes in the DNA sequence.” This means that vital information learned by one generation is genetically transferred to the next. Before epigenetics was discovered, it was thought that genes could not learn because the DNA codes that express them do not provide that option. In other words, DNA is the blueprint that determines gene expression, but epigenetics and other mindbody research is showing that the expression is affected by contextual conditions; Mother Nature sets rules to be questioned, not to be blindly obeyed.”

“True sustainable change requires gaining access to the cultural beliefs that deny you the rewards of your courageous commitment to change. It requires a new vision of how your body responds to your beliefs and how you can change those beliefs through an embodied approach.”
