  1. The Power Of The Placebo

    Whoops just realised I had already posted this. I thought I may have? Sorry will leave this here anyway. The book is good and backs up the programme though PLUS it tells you how to effect change which in line with this forum (meditation). :-) Hi saw this a while ago. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1z4iyq_e07-the-power-of-the-placebo_tv It really is well worth a watch imho. Placebo curing a Parkinson disease sufferer from the shakes! Curing a woman when she thought she had surgery! And have also just read this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/You-Are-Placebo-Making-Matter/dp/1781802572/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420458700&sr=8-1&keywords=matter+placebo Interesting study by a 'scientist's on how thoughts/feelings/imagination turn on and off DNA and create your bodies health or disease. It may give you more awareness about how powerful each thought is and more confidence/belief in those positive affirmations if you do them. Just thought I would share... Peter S
  2. Science daily reports: This sounds interesting already, but how about this: So an even more complex code to be deciphered. Here's the original article(too bad we need access to Science-magazine to read more than the abstract): http://www.sciencemag.org/content/342/6164/1367 Thoughts?
  3. "According to the new insights of behavioral epigenetics, traumatic experiences in our past, or in our recent ancestors’ past, leave molecular scars adhering to our DNA. Jews whose great-grandparents were chased from their Russian shtetls; Chinese whose grandparents lived through the ravages of the Cultural Revolution; young immigrants from Africa whose parents survived massacres; adults of every ethnicity who grew up with alcoholic or abusive parents — all carry with them more than just memories. Like silt deposited on the cogs of a finely tuned machine after the seawater of a tsunami recedes, our experiences, and those of our forebears, are never gone, even if they have been forgotten. They become a part of us, a molecular residue holding fast to our genetic scaffolding. The DNA remains the same, but psychological and behavioral tendencies are inherited. You might have inherited not just your grandmother’s knobby knees, but also her predisposition toward depression caused by the neglect she suffered as a newborn. Or not. If your grandmother was adopted by nurturing parents, you might be enjoying the boost she received thanks to their love and support. The mechanisms of behavioral epigenetics underlie not only deficits and weaknesses but strengths and resiliencies, too. And for those unlucky enough to descend from miserable or withholding grandparents, emerging drug treatments could reset not just mood, but the epigenetic changes themselves. Like grandmother’s vintage dress, you could wear it or have it altered. The genome has long been known as the blueprint of life, but the epigenome is life’s Etch A Sketch: Shake it hard enough, and you can wipe clean the family curse." http://discovermagazine.com/2013/may/13-grandmas-experiences-leave-epigenetic-mark-on-your-genes#.Ug3mFmTwJOg
