🧬 We All Know Genetics, But What About Epigenetics?
At 16, I read a book that completely changed my perspective on life: The Biology of Belief by Bruce Lipton. 📖✨
Lipton, a pioneering cell biologist, introduces epigenetics—the study of how our thoughts, emotions, and environment influence gene expression. In simple terms: we are not passive recipients of our DNA. Instead, our mindset and surroundings can activate or deactivate genes, directly impacting our health and well-being.
💡 Key Insights from Epigenetics
🔹 Your beliefs shape your biology – Emotions like stress, fear, and negativity can create an internal environment that suppresses beneficial genes, while positive emotions support healing and overall well-being.
🔹 Your environment matters – It’s not just about genetics; our emotional, mental, and physical surroundings influence how our genes express themselves.
🔹 Transformation is possible – Through mindset shifts, personal & energy work, and conscious habits, we can reprogram our responses and unlock our full potential.
For me, this understanding was life-changing. It reinforced that transformation isn’t just about willpower—it’s deeply biological. Whether in personal or professional life, working on ourselves has a measurable impact on how we show up in the world. 🌱
