"There's no question that the mind-body question is real, even if we can't quantify it. Hope is one of the greatest weapons we have to fight disease." ~ David Agus Have you ever witnessed firsthand your mind-body connection? Many people who have overcome seemingly insurmountable health odds claim that tapping into their mind-body connection cured them of serious disease and illness. This week, you''' explore epigenetics and how mindfulness and meditation can help manage your gene expression. This week, you're in for a treat! I share with you the full 30-minute guided meditations I share on the Sip and Om meditation app. This week's series was recorded several years ago. It was a fun series to research. We'll be following along with the movie, "The Connection," by Shannon Harvey, an Australian journalist and filmmaker. This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, Manage Gene Expression, episodes 632-638.
