This book was published in 2006, the same year as "The Secret" I believe. It's fascinating how great minds think on parallel planes. I read both around that time and put them on my shelf. Since then I've read a considerable number of books all on the same topic but basically under different headings. It's finally starting to sink in that they may have a point! Our deep seated enculturation is ingrained every day by circumstances that we've learned to view a "set" way. We've all been misinformed about the facts of our true nature. The new zeitgeist of "thought" activation is becoming more prevalent today, however. People are beginning to accept different views like the ones in this little book about cells. It is well written, thought provoking and well organized.
Joyce Hawkes has the ability to write complex ideas in simple ways for those "AhHa" moments! Our cells are the "go between" reality and non-reality or between local and non-local events. As I understand it the nano-space between the atoms in our cells unites with energy to perpetually create or recycle cells. This nano-space is like Roshi's "Nothing", Einstein's "Mind of God" or Mindell's ProcessMind. The reproduction or recycling of cells happens so rapidly it can not be compared to anything we "know" in linear time. We can no longer define in words what takes place. Our cells go into a "quantum reality", a sort of non-locality meaning they can be here or everywhere at the same time. The author doesn't exactly go into detail about non-locality probably because it's a concept that many people are not ready to grasp.
I found the beginning of the book especially interesting. She basically gives her routine meditations for some specific ailments in the later part of the book. It's well worth the read!
