Two people could live the same life but with different perspectives and one could end up healthier, with a body and mind much younger than their age and the other could end up with a variety of health problems and a body and mind much more deteriorated than would be expected of someone their age.
Do you believe this to be true?
Well, this is what happened to two identical twins - they grew up with the same genes, same family and lived in the same place, yet one twin at 92 was very healthy with a sharp mind and straight back and the other twin was incontinent, had a hip replacement, lost most of her vision and had dementia. It's quite a difference considering the importance our society places on genes for determining whether or not you get this or that disease, and this misconception about genes is discussed in the beginning of The Genie in your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention by Dawson Church.
I'd highly recommend reading this book - it came out in 2007 and corrects alot of society's outdated scientific beliefs about genes and about the power we have over our lives. It's written in a very easy to understand way and it explains how our thoughts and beliefs create our biology and switch our genes on and off throughout our lives.
Did you know that your beliefs are only subconscious programs that have been learnt and stored in your mind from childhood, through repetition and through highly emotional experiences (trauma)? Most of what you believe about life and who you are is programmed into your brain before you even reach the age of seven and before your brain is developed enough to decide if the information it receives is worth having or not.
So consider whether you are running around on auto reacting to things seemingly without a thought or whether you are conscious of your beliefs and behaviours, questioning and updating those that hold you back?
It's not always an easy job, but it's comforting to you that we can choose who we want to be and work towards it. And with fast and effective therapies like EFT, which can be easy learnt and applied to our everyday lives, now more than ever we have the ability to unlock the power and potential of our minds.
Don't forget to be good to yourself, treating yourself with the kind of care and compassion you would treat a good friend with. Be patient with yourself along your journey, be curious, be observant and use your feelings as a guide to moulding your mind. If something feels good and right on all levels, then it usually is.
If you have any habits, anything that you do or think that holds you back and you are unsure of how you can go about making changes, send me an email and I will be happy to give you some tips for things you can try.
