Book Reviews of The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention

Book Review: Making Belief Credible
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been using Energy Psychology in my counseling practice daily for the past 11 years. Until now, I've had to ask clients to "take my word for it" that these techniques could bring about profound change. Of course, once a client actually experiences the power of these interventions, they become "believers." Still, helping psychological pain disappear by tapping with one's fingers one one's body is such a bizarre-looking form of treatment that therapists and users alike drift in and out of belief, often feeling silly for even trying these techniques. This sense of ridiculousness can cause people to refrain from using this form of healing on their own. As a result, there is so much UNTAPPED potential! However, Dawson Church's scientific explanation of the physical changes that occur with mind-based interventions is so convincing that it is certain to provide the support that anyone needs. Understanding that there is science rather than witchcraft behind the methods can help so many people. It will empower them to try the techniques and it will empower them to stay with them. I am so grateful to Dr. Church for providing this resource to all of us.

Summary of The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention

Author Dawson Church applies the insights of the new field of Epigenetics (epi=above, i.e. control above the level of the gene) to healing. Citing hundreds of scientific studies, he shows how beliefs and emotions can trigger the expression of DNA strands. He focuses on a class of genes called Immediate Early Genes or IEGs. These genes turn on within a few seconds of a stimulus. They can be triggered by thoughts or emotions ("I loved that unexpected gift of roses Bill gave me" or "I'm so mad about what Uncle John said at the Christmas party"). Many IEGs are regulatory genes turn on other genes that affect specific aspects of our immune system, such as the production of white blood cells that destroy attacking bacteria and viruses. Epigenetics thus influences our health every day.

He coins the new term "Epigenetic Medicine" to describe healing techniques with epigenetic effects. He also summarizes the science behind the infant fields of Energy Psychology and Energy Medicine, both of which offer promising epigenetic medical therapies, and describes a few of the thousands of powerful personal breakthroughs that are being achieved by therapists, doctors and lay people praticing these techniques. The Genie in Your Genes shows that there is a sound theoretical framework, based on credible experiments, for understanding these astonishing results, and predicts that the insights of Epigenetic Medicine will dramatically advance the fields of both medicine and psychology in the coming decade.

Best of all, The Genie in Your Genes demonstrates that, by taking control of our consciousness and using it to influence our genetic expression, we can sometimes bypass years of therapy, as well as harmful drugs and invasive surgeries, to, in effect, do continuous genetic engineering on our own bodies. This can produce both immediate relief from long-standing anxieties and neuroses, as well as "miraculous" healing of persistent physical conditions, especially autoimmune diseases.

Among a new crop of books that chart the way to a positive health future, The Genie in Your Genes stands out as a solidly grounded and exciting pointer to the future possibilities of a medicine that links soul to body and mind.
