The Influence of Belief on Gene Expression

Gene expression is significantly influenced by human beliefs and perceptions, suggesting that we possess the ability to control our biological responses. Dr. Bruce Lipton emphasizes that our genes do not dictate our health solely based on heredity; rather, it is our conscious perceptions that impact gene expression. People's beliefs can either promote cellular health or lead to dysfunction based on the internal narratives they maintain. For instance, adopting a mindset centered around love can enhance cell function, whereas a focus on fear can inhibit it.
