Epigenetics and Past Life Wounds

Long term studies have shown that highly impactful traumas affect not only our corporeal bodies, minds and hearts, but can also imprint on our very DNA, carrying forward these impacts. What was experienced in one (or many) generations-such as oppression, war or abuse, may be carried through to successive generations, not just behaviorally but also genetically.

There are actually phenomena visible, without the aid of a microscope, that can show us how our cells and our bodies can be influenced intergenerationally from the outside in.

Take for instance the man whose scar on his left leg is in the exact same place as where his grandfather was shot in the First World War. Or the woman who has a mole behind her ear in the same place where her grandfather sustained an arrow wound, long before she was born. This is what we call healing past life wounds.

Dr. Ian Stevenson has done extensive peer reviewed studies on birthmarks and their correspondence with past life injuries, demonstrating the influences that outside events can have on the human body.

The point here is to point to the effects that the environment can have on the DNA itself. The kind of change affecting the body that isn’t directed from our DNA, but appears to actually influence its makeup. This is another proof that our destiny is not subject to an immutable determinant.

Becoming aware of our history, changing our thoughts and re-directing the actions that we perform, we can cause real change in our inner emotional realm.  We can create more choice as to what’s contained in our inner emotional feedback loop. There is a maxim  that states: “neurons that fire together, wire together”.

Genetics and Health: Aren’t We Limited by the DNA We Inherited?

From the 1950’s through the end of the last century, media regaled the public with ever more “important genetic discoveries”.  We were told that we would surely uncover, name and treat and heal inherited diseases. The race to discover genetic coding had begun.

Watson, Crick and Wilkins were household names. They were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962 for their discovery of DNA. Though not the first to discover the building blocks of this helix, they were certainly the ones made famous by winning the prize. The double helix towered over the fields of medicine and physiology. The promise was born of finding and eventually creating medicine for inherited diseases. The central tDNA theory concerned itself with the helix inside the nucleus of a cell. DNA being the building block of life itself was considered the brain of the cell, unchangeable, immutable and primary.

More recently The Human Genome Project emerged  that named and explored the sequences  which make up our human DNA.  Many scientists were convinced of its immutable blueprint of information.

ce;; biologists however, including Dr. Irv Konigsberg and Dr. Bruce Lipton have postulated that DNA isn’t necessarily the  sole determinant of our futures.

These biologists  have proved repeatedly that cells can change based on the influence of the environment they are placed in. Their experiments have proved that the membrane, the part of the cell that surrounds the plasma and has receptors for many chemicals found in their environment, communicates to the cell itself in response to environmental change. This membrane they say acts much more like the brain itself.

Their findings pointed clearly to the conclusion that a cell’s life is not determined wholly by its DNA. The DNAbut is merely an architectural blueprint of its own reproduction. Influences from outside (like the actual building of a house its blueprint is based upon) have just as much influence on how the cell develops.

There are actually phenomena visible, without the aid of a microscope, that can show us how our cells and our bodies can be influenced inter-generationally from the outside in.

Take for instance the man whose scar on his left leg is in the exact same place as where his grandfather was shot in the First World War. Or the woman who has a mole behind her ear in the same place where her grandfather sustained an arrow wound, long before she was born. This is what we call healing past life wounds.

Healing Past Life Wounds: The Power of the Mind To Change from Within

Findings in neuroscience over the past couple of decades have shown us that the brain itself is not static, that it is in fact “re-wireable”.  Neuroplasticity, a term neuroscience coined for just this phenomenon, ensures us  that we have the ability to restructure our brains with the thoughts we think and the actions we partake of. Each thought, negative, positive or neutral, bathes our neurons (brain cells) in an environment of changing bio-chemicals. Our cell’s membranes, which hold all the receptors for those bio-chemicals, respond with each change, communicating to our neurons the state of its environment at any given time. Like a feedback loop, each thought and corresponding emotion we reproduce creates more of the same thoughts and emotions, continually affecting the cells throughout the body.

By altering what we think, what we say and and what we do, we can effect very real change on our inner emotional world. We call this healing past life wounds. Essentially we create more choice as to what’s contained in our inner emotional feedback loop. The saying that “neurons that fire together, wire together” describes this state.

Cell biologist and epigenetics advocate Dr. Bruce Lipton says: “Miracles, such as sudden healing from cancer…. are actually events that science does not yet understand. By changing our perceptions of life, we can reprogram our cells”. This he says is “the outworking of epigenetic mechanisms”.

But can we change our thoughts just like that? If it were that easy, couldn’t  we just think of nice things?

Well, Conscious thoughts are only a tiny piece of how we perceive and can affect our minds. It is our subconscious thoughts that make up to 95% of our beliefs and perceptions.  The emotions embedded within our limbic memories are a crucial key to unlocking negative thoughts and habitual patterns. Created long ago these old negative beliefs were originally created to protect us from further pain.

For real change to take place, we must access these faulty perceptions and negative belief systems. As mentioned above, they often reside in the subconscious and are crucial to access at the same time as pairing with current reality and/or positive intentions.

The Skillful EFT and Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner

EFT and Matrix Reimprinting are highly effective techniques for working with core (negative) belief systems embedded within the subconscious. By using gentle, focused inquiry to elicit the emotions and sensations of old memories while simultaneously tapping on meridian points, the neural pathways in the limbic system are “opened”, and a period of rewiring opportunity arises.

EFT Incorporates The Following Components To Ensure Neural Rewiring Takes Place

  1. a) Calms down the nervous system by tapping on the points and neutralizing the energetic stress response. Interrupts activating feedback loop, and allows for new experiences and intentions to be accessed.
  2. b) Allows for discovery of the original “coping belief”, with the intention of pairing the old belief with a new one and thus creating a cognitive dissonance as it forces the brain to make a new choice based on current information.
  3. c) Continued tapping on the original belief along with current  experiential information allows for permanent transformational healing.

EFT not only uses knowledge gained from the cutting edge of neuroscience, it is fast, gentle and effective. The only thing to lose is your limitations!
