Do you know that the
statistic has changed on genetic expression? Prior to today the statistic I had
heard was only 35% of who we are is genetically hardwired. Eye color, hair
color, height, etc.
As
of today I read that statistic has been lowered to only 10% of who we are is
hardwired.
What
that means to us humans is that 90% of who we are is due to environmental
signals.
Environment means outside forces and inside bodily thoughts, memories,
or attitudes.
Those environmental
thoughts tend to end up in the subconscious mind. Our subconscious mind
controls 97-99% of our thinking, so in reality it leaves little to our
conscious control, doesn’t it?
This is why it is imperative that we use a method like tapping to get
to the root of what is going on inside us.
All our early learned lessons and thinking now runs our life whether
you know that thinking is there or not.
EFT is God's tool to get to the bottom of why we do the things we hate
doing, or thinking the things we know we shouldn't.
Something else is going on here! Here is the scientific explanation:
"The environment
that activates genes includes both the inner environment - the emotional,
biochemical, mental, energetic, and spiritual landscape of the individual - and
the other outer environment. The outer environment includes the social network
and the ecological systems in the individual lives. Food, toxins, social
rituals, predators, and sexual cues are examples of outer environmental
influences that affect gene expression. Researchers estimate that approximately
90% of all genes are engaged...in cooperation with signals from the
environment.
The understanding
that much of our genetic activity is affected by factors outside the cell is a
radical reversal of the dogma of genetic determinism, which held for half a
century that who we are and what we do is governed by our genes. Research is
illuminating a new biology in which consciousness plays a PRIMARY role.
Pharmacologist
Constance Graunds says, 'An undisciplined mind leaks vital energy in a
continuous stream of thoughts, worries, and skewed perceptions, many of which
trigger disturbing emotions and degenerative chemical processes in the
body.'"
How Genetic Expression Happens
"Signals passes
through the membrane of each cell and travel to the cell's nucleus. There, they
enter the chromosome and activate a particular strand of DNA.
Around each strand of
DNA is a protein 'sleeve.' This sleeve serves as a barrier between the
information contained in the DNA strand and the rest of the intracellular
environment. In order for the blueprint in the DNA to be 'read,' the sleeve
must be unwrapped. Unless it is unwrapped, the DNA strand cannot be 'read,' nor
can the information it contains be acted upon. Until the information is
unwrapped, the blueprint of the DNA lies dormant. That blueprint is required by
the cell to construct other proteins that regulate virtually every aspect of
life.
When a signal
arrives, the protein sleeve around the DNA unwraps and, with the assistance of
RNA, the DNA molecule then replicates an intermediate template molecule. The
blueprint that has up to this point been concealed within the sleeve can now be
acted upon. This is what scientists mean when they say that a gene expresses.
The genetic information contained in the chromosome has gone from being a
dormant blueprint into active expression, where it creates other
actions within the cell by constructing, assembling, or altering products.
Proteins control
responses of our immune systems, form the scaffolding that supports the
structure of each cell, provide the enzymes that catalyze chemical reactions,
and convey information between cells, among other functions."
This whole chain of
events starts with a signal. This signal then unwraps to let the information in
the gene move from potential to expression.
Field of Epigenetics
as explained by Science magazine is "the study of heritable changes
in gene function that occur without a change in the DNA sequence". It's
the study of signals that turn genes on and off.
Physicist Richard
Carlson says, "all the genome [DNA] provides is the parts list. How things
interact is what's more important in biology than just the things that are
there. The genome tells us very little, if anything at all, about how things
interact."
So, what does all
this mean? Your every thought has more influence over your genetics than any
DNA that your parents gave you. Your beliefs about where you fit into the
world, how loved you feel, your thoughts about yourself and those around you,
what experiences you have had, traumas, etc., etc. are more important that
whether you have every disease gene ever created.
Whether those disease
genes are turned on depend on your OWN
personal thoughts than much of anything else.
This is why
scientists now say 90% of all diseases are under our thought control. Sounds
like science fiction, doesn't it? As the future moves on, we are about to find
out!
