How to Reprogram Your Genes Using Meditation to Activate Neuroplasticity & Epigenetics
For decades, our DNA was seen as a fixed blueprint, dictating our fate with unwavering precision. But a new dawn is breaking, where the once-immutable strands are revealing their surprisingly fluid nature. Epigenetics, the study of how our environment and experiences influence gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself, is rewriting the narrative.
At the forefront of this revolution are alternative healing practices like meditation, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), and Reiki, offering groundbreaking insights into how we can actively shape our genetic landscape for the better.
Imagine DNA as a musical score, containing all the notes for your life’s symphony. However, these notes can be played softly or loudly, even silenced entirely, by epigenetic switches. These chemical markers act like dimmers, regulating which genes are actively expressed and which remain dormant. This dynamic dance between our genes and experiences is the essence of epigenetics.
Alternative practices like meditation, EFT, and Reiki are emerging as potent conductors in this grand orchestra. Meditation, for instance, has been shown to influence the activity of stress-related genes, promoting greater emotional resilience and reducing inflammation. EFT, tapping into…
